We no longer trust the God of our forefathers.

I normally don't jump into a conversation and also as a rule don't get involved with religious debates. However, kindly forgive my intrusion and take this as a plea to broaden your horizon, reading and understanding.

James Madison, fourth American president and referred to as the "Father of the Constitution" said it best:

"Religious bondage shackles and debilitates the mind and unfits it for every noble enterprise."

-- The Madisons by Virginia Moore, pg. 43 (1979, McGraw-Hill CO., New York NY) quoting letter by JM to William Bradford April 1, 1774

"During almost fifteen centuries has the legal establishment of Christianity been on trial. What have been its fruits? More or less in all places, pride and indolence in the Clergy, ignorance and servility in the laity; in both, superstition, bigotry and persecution."

--James Madison, a Biography in His Own Words, edited by Joseph Gardner, pg. 93 (1974, Newsweek, New York NY) quoting Memorial and Remonstrance against Religious Assessments by JM June 1785

I'm sure it would be fine for you to mod your own system to your liking. If you do release your mod to the public domain you should seek permission from the original author.

The mod is missing the "TCP/IP" button in the main_menu_buttons.bmp file. Edit the file in your favourite graphics editor or copy your original back to the bmp directory.

You must be running an internet share or router because 192.168.1.100 is your local network ip address and this will never work for internet tcp/ip games.

[Some Thoughts on PBEM / IP Cheating -- Hubert Please Read]

I agree 100% with Ceasar. Any security architecture relying on hiding files and/or registry keys are doomed. File and registry monitors will highlight these. I think it is a common misconception of the developing community (and I'm including myself) that users are dumb and computer illiterate. Strong encryption of files/settings/transmissions would be the only way to be fairly safe from cheating.

If the main concern regarding PBEM games is the fact that you can reload the game to try and get better results then an elegant solution would be to generate the random factors and store these with the mailed game. Battles/results will then always be the same no matter how many times you reload the game.
