vWAR Question

Worker Joined: Jan 18, 2008 Posts: 143

Has anyone ever heard of this mod or used it? I have been trying to find any information on it what it does basicly but have found not much I might be lost but I even was at their site and supposed sites with it running but the links are dead.

So please if anyone has any information on it please do tell. Smile

I mean the blocks and stuff that goes along with it. Im not looking for the full install I perfer raven nuke. Had seen some other things for clan modules but those people seem to charge cash for their stuff and licence uses. Which perturb me a little. I have puchased scripts in the past and they have problems and no support. So I could not fesably seeing myself paying for something that might not work.

Or if anyone could suggest any clan modules it would be muchly appreciated.

There is a version of vWar that integrates with PHP-Nuke. It is full of security holes and I don't think they have been fixed. A gaming clan I help out was hacked through holes in vWar. Skip it.

will do. Seems I might have to help compile a list of modules that work with raven nuke for clans and such. Smile

vWar is the best clan scrim system out there, unfortunately, it is also full of holes. My site has been hacked through vWar on several occasions, even although I kept it fully updated. So much so, and with some regret, it is now disabled and blocked until someone rewrites it. vWars' home is at Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login!

There is another free one out there, still under development, but is coming on nicely. You can find it at Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login!

This is NOT a RavenNuke(tm) issue (whether it works or not). vWar has been around a long time. I've installed many versions over the years and it has been a source of security issue, kind of like phpnuke itself.

The latest release, afaik, has plugged all (known) security issues. I am neither recommending nor endorsing vWar. I service several clients who are using it and keep it up to date w/o a problem.

not free anymore.

*EDIT*

Sorry if this topic has no place here. I will cease and deassist. I thought vWar had modules that would run inside ravennuke. Sad

Just to be clear, the module for phpnuke will work under RavenNuke(tm).

I would defer to Raven on this. The guys I know who got hacked are not very computer savvy and wouldn't know how to keep up with security updates. If Raven has clients that use it, it would make me feel better.

I did see the log files from the gaming clan and examined the code. It was a huge hole they drove through.
