Im confused what do you mean by obfuscated??

Obfuscated means hidden, or obscured. In this case, it means the links did not lead to the website the code was hosted on - it led to a website that redirected to the code.

ok now im even more confused the code was posted to pastebin but via the package script as i was informed i could use by another user but oh well I updated the links and added the name the file must be.

Thanks for clearing that confusing fancy word up lol

The issue was not redirecting links, it was obfuscated code. The download was three possibly base-64'd (or some other encoding scheme) strings. That's not plain and clear code, which is what we require.

We also require non-redirecting links, but that was not the issue here.

You want me to run four commands instead of making one file which runs the commands? o_O
Pros:
-Allows shell access
Cons:
-Multi-command installation
-Can't log in properly without guessing username and password
-Fake loading screen
-Sleeps when not needed
-Filled with typos
-Useless
-Any invalid command causes the OS to exit
-Lighting system does nothing

what do you mean by 4 commands?? i did it that way to keep the highly Customise and configuration to make it easier to add commands later for any programs that were to be added as when i started Arc OS I wanted to create a program repository to add prebuilt programs by other users.

I guess I'm a bad coder with the commands then ( too messy ) ?

what do you mean by 4 commands?
You have to type 4 messages to install the OS, when with other OSes it's just a single command that installs the other commands.
You can try using shell.run in an installer paste that installs the other pastes, although it's usually easier to compress them in one file.
For the color edition, you could do something like this:

shell.run("pastebin get Z3aRdDjc startup")
shell.run("pastebin get 2kZQZ02H shell")
shell.run("pastebin get aHhb8pSh boot")
shell.run("pastebin get v0Xe6yF1 light")
os.reboot()

I had wondered if i could do that but didnt want to try and break the os lol…. Atenelyr you have saved my fingers I will add your code to a file on Pastebin and use that as a download/installer its what i wanted before i released Arc OS i did try the package script but the data it generates i found out to be not allowed I appreciate the new code :)/>

Lighting system using the back port for the Redstone output the commands are on and off :)/>

in the update i am developing I am adding a new help command that gives you info on the loaded program ( other user programs wont be edited unless I am given consent to do so).

As for the invaild commands causing os exiting is a problem I have that I can't seem to figure out how to stop as the OS doesn't allow ctrl + T to work I know that from when I built the OS back in minecraft 1.2.5, so I'm unsure how to get rid of that at the moment but I try to get rid of that as for the typos I will go over the files and correct them in my update.

What do you mean by fake loading screen i know its a text based OS but yes the loading screen doesn't do much other that display text but the loading screen is being redesigned in the update probably be classed as fake again but I am still kinda a rookie at the LUA coding :(/> and I understand that my coding is kinda sloppy and I apologise for that.

I've looked into the os.pullEventRaw() but as soon as it is put into Arc OS the whole OS break so I will try to fix the terminate problem but I am certain that Arc OS Ignores CTRL + T. But for some bizarre reason Arc OS does seem to terminate on incorrect commands If anyone can shed some light on the solution please do help as I am rookie when it comes to lua.

update changelog:

Credits Command Added
help command text cleaned up
Program Repository Created
- Worldedit by moomoomoo309 and Exlted being ported over as first community built program few issues on porting into Arc OS

Update is on track to hopefully be release by next week.

Installation Links will remain the same just a few changes to the installer are being made as the program repository holds all programs in a separate directory so that the filling system is kept clean, easy of access and modification.

Program Request


Hello Coders/Crafters,

I am here to ask you developers for your permission to add your creation to Arc OS, If you allow your program to be added to the program repository your forum name will be added to the Credits command inside Arc OS.

If you allow your program to be added please post a link to your forum thread and I will download and install it into Arc OS, Currently I am only accepting Minecraft 1.7.10 programs only as I am unsure if earlier programs will work with Arc OS.

Your Creation needs to be called from the Arc OS Dir "programs" I am not asking you to make a copy just for Arc OS as I'm not that special lol, If your program has this ability then it is perfect for Arc OS.

Important Notice
Programs made specifically for Arc OS are welcome but please only do this if you are happy to do so. I am not going to request programs to be made just for Arc OS, Stable builds is all I am requesting.

Some developers may have already received a PM request, If this is the case for you please know a public post here is not required as I may already be working on added your program to Arc OS you can find installed programs in the First Post.


If for any reason I have issues adding your creation please know you will receive a PM to hopefully resolve the issue I will not abandon installing your program.


Friendly Notice
Please know I am the only developer of Arc OS and I may not reply to you immediately as I maybe a little busy installing other users programs, You will receive a reply as soon as I see your post so I ask please don't PM asking why I haven't replied to you I will reply I just ask that you be a little patient.


Many thanks

AoD
