MultiHack 2.0


For those that are unfamiliar with MultiHack, I would like to take a minute to tell you a little about it.

MultiHack is a FREE program written by me, Troy Jones. It is designed with you in mind. MultiHack is designed to save you lots of time by helping you install hacks to your forum software. If your spend your valuable time hacking your board by hunting and searching for lines of code in lots of file so you can replace it with the modified code? If you spend your valuable time trying to figure out which files go where. If you are constantly looking through all those files just to locate a small mistake, then MultiHack is FOR YOU. Let MultiHack do all that work for you in a few seconds.

MultiHack was also written with the hack author in mind! Every hack author can take the same steps they would normally while writing out a text file for others and easily save them as "mods" within MultiHack. Once the mod is complete all the author has to do is push a button to export the "hack" into a single file. These completed mods are even single files when the author adds additional files like new CGI files, templates, graphics, etc... Everything is automatically compressed into a single file. GUESS WHAT ELSE! When end users download the single MultiHack file, all they have to do is push a button to import the file into their MultiHack database and it is instantly ready to install with another push of a button! That's it! Download…import…install…then upload the completed files to your server. What used to take hours now takes seconds! This will also drastically reduce the time hack authors have to spend trying to find mistakes in the end users board because they missed a step. If its in your file, then its automatically installed in their files.

Lastly, MultiHack is a database of all your hacks as well, so once a hack is imported or created, unless you delete it, you have it! When a new version of your forum comes out, replacing all your hacks will only take seconds. Eliminating the dreaded, “here comes another board version.” Or, if a hack author comes out with an “upgrade” to his hack, he can build an “upgrade” file and/or full version so users can upgrade their board in a few more seconds.

Key Features of MultiHack include:

Support for both Ultimate Bulletin Board and vBulletin.

Modification Order - Allows you to select what mods get installed when, per file.

Mod Instances - Let you select what instance (or all instances) of the text you would like to modify.

Hack Analysis - Make sure a hack will install correctly BEFORE you make changes to your files.

Full Import/Export functions - Let you export to a standard MultiHack file, or you can export the hack into a normal text file. This is for those of you that like to do things the hard way.

Full Editing of hacks - Once a hack is created, you have FULL control over that hack. Preview each step, see how each change is done, and make changes to whatever you want. (Makes finding errors very simple)

Pre/Post installation instructions - These windows pop up with valuable information the hack author wants people to be aware of, at the right time.

Logging - All hack installation activity is displayed. If a hack won't install correctly, you are shown which step failed and why (if possible) the hack could not be installed.

Windows & UNIX output formats - Windows commonly stores files with CRLF at the end, Unix with LF only. You can specify as a default or “on the fly” which format you want to use.
