[About Master Hack]
|
||
|
||
This is the first official release of Master Hack and the first hacker
|
||
(at least that I know of) that does support high speed modems. Master Hack
|
||
is basically a hacker that I wrote (because I wasn't satisfied with other
|
||
hackers) in Turbo Pascal and just modified the source when I wanted to hack
|
||
something new. I decided to add an interface to Master Hack and release it
|
||
after I saw that other people were sick of out dated hackers. I would like
|
||
to note that I would love to hear any suggestions or comments about what
|
||
to add into Master Hack or bugs that were found in Master Hack. If anybody
|
||
needs to get hold of me, contact me at Fungus Land or The Lexicon because
|
||
these are the only boards that I try to frequent.
|
||
|
||
|
||
[Using Master Hack]
|
||
|
||
When loading Master Hack you will be asked to configure your modem (to
|
||
find more information on this check CONFIGURING THE MODEM) and then you will
|
||
be in Master Hack's main menu. The main menu consists of a list of
|
||
directories on the left and a list of extender files on the right. You will
|
||
start by being able to go thru the directories to find an extender file.
|
||
To move around in the main menu simply use the arrow keys to move the hilite
|
||
bar back and forth and use:
|
||
|
||
ENTER - When hilite bar is over directories this will switch to the
|
||
directory selected. If over an extender file then it will
|
||
automatically start hacking.
|
||
|
||
F1 - When the hilite bar is over the directories then you will have
|
||
to specify a name for an extender file to create. When over
|
||
an extender file it will allow you to edit the extender.
|
||
|
||
F2 - This option will allow you to reconfigure your modem.
|
||
|
||
ESC - This will quit Master Hack.
|
||
|
||
|
||
[Creating/Editing an Extender]
|
||
|
||
When the hi-lite bar is positioned over the directories type F1. Then
|
||
you will be prompted to enter a filename. The filename that you have entered
|
||
will automatically have an extension of EXT, even if you have specified
|
||
otherwise.
|
||
|
||
Phone Number - This is the dialup you are hacking.
|
||
|
||
Target Number - This stores the number that you will be hacking to.
|
||
NOTE: When Master Hack detects a busy signal it goes on
|
||
to the next code. It does not write it to the
|
||
code file. I suggest hacking to a service, such
|
||
as Telenet (PC Pursuit), instead of hacking to a
|
||
Bulletin Board System.
|
||
|
||
Code Length - Here you will put the length of the code.
|
||
|
||
Delay Before - This is the delay before the code is dialed.
|
||
|
||
Delay After - This is the period of time for Master Hack to wait after
|
||
the code and target have been dialed.
|
||
|
||
NOTE: Delay Before and Delay After are both in seconds.
|
||
|
||
Code File - This is the file that all working codes will be written
|
||
to. I suggest using an extension of COD on the filename
|
||
because of plans I have for further version of
|
||
Master Hack.
|
||
|
||
NOTE: The Code File is stored as an ASCII file so you
|
||
should be able to view it from DOS.
|
||
|
||
|
||
[Configuring your Modem]
|
||
|
||
Here you will select your modem parameters. In this version of Master
|
||
Hack you will not be able to send your own init. string because I don't think
|
||
that it is necessary for the user to have total control over their modem when
|
||
hacking. Speed will be set at 45, which I consider to be about average. If
|
||
their is enough people that suggest an option that would allow the user to
|
||
send a specific init. string then I might add it in.
|
||
|
||
NOTE: To use Master Hack from anywhere on the Hard Drive, put MASTER.CFG
|
||
in a directory that is in your path.
|
||
|
||
[Your Hacking]
|
||
|
||
Ok, know your hacking... From this menu you will be able to see the
|
||
current status of the modem, how many tries you have done, how many valid
|
||
codes have been found, and the last valid code that was hacked. The only
|
||
keys you have here is:
|
||
|
||
Space - This will skip on to the next code.
|
||
|
||
Esc - This will stop hacking and put you back to the main menu.
|
||
|
||
NOTE: I would at this time like to note once again that when Master Hack
|
||
detects a BUSY SIGNAL it will go on to the next code. It does not
|
||
write it to the file.
|
||
|
||
|
||
Well, that is about all that I can think of so, if you need to get hold
|
||
of me call any of the two boards listed above and I hope your hacks are as
|
||
successful as mine... |
