Can someone explain to me why I would want to use this instead of the Hazar/Orbit30 1.4 loader? What does it do differently/what is the advantage?
WoW uses an different approach. You don't need it if you are satisfied with the loader. It's an alternative for anybody when loader isn't working, or you want a non emulated SLIC.
A responsiple developer will validate their OWN code BEFORE they post it. if he wont bother to do so, then no one should bother to download it. considering what this software does (rearranging the boot chain) Hazar is demonstrating gross neglence or is a malicious coder, I have not decided yet.
He's only 14 years old! so you're here to teach him the right way to do it! and no need to be mad, it can be said nicely Come on, be tolerant
Ok then, that should be a disclamer on all of his, "download this" posts and a responsible adult should look at it first. sometimes he claims to be 14 and other times not, but I guess thats what 14 year olds do. so please in the future test your code on a clean install before you post it. because your install script will brick any computer its run on. also your uninstall script does not reset the boot sectors which may also brick any computer you run it on. my professional opinion is you pull your code and not repost untill you have fully tested it.
I have to agree. As publisher of improved tools you have to test it at least at your own machine. Don't abuse the members here as guinea pigs. When we developed WoW we've tested it intensively before the release. On the other hand, if somebody finds an error, why not posting the details instead of claiming, still broke...... Hazar, please test your code, before you release any further versions. WoW is not meant to be a toy....
