Update Ultra Hal Assistant to version 6.0.103

[Medeksza]

A candidate release (test version that will become final if no issues are found) of Ultra Hal Assistant 6.0.103 is available for download from: http://www.zabaware.com/download/hal60103.zip  Test and download at your own risk, but most likely this will become an official release in the next few days.

The following changes have been made since the initial release of Ultra Hal Assistant 6.0:

Updated product activation system:

• A new wizard interface guides you through activation process before and after purchase.
• The new wizard can automatically detect and enter in serial numbers and activation codes copied to the clipboard. For example, after a successful transaction the zabaware web pages displays your serial number and will reccomend you copy it to the clipboard. As soon as this happens, Hal will intercept it and automatically pop up and enter the code for you.
• The update prevents many corrupted licenses from occuring in the first place
• It repairs many corrupted licenses automatically without any user interaction
• In case of unrepairable corrupted license, a wizard guides you through the recovery process
• The deactivation process now automatically notifies the Zabaware.com server of deactivation and the zabaware server automatically frees the serial number up for reinstallation somewhere else.
• The uninstaller program gives user option of deactivating if it detects an activated copy of Hal before the  uninstallation begins

New features:

• Added Gerald Blakely's Abstract math addition to the HalMath DLL Function
• Added Vittorio Rossi's vrFreeWill plugin to Hal's standard installation, and name to credits.

Bug fixes:

• Fixed bug for plug-in selector where plug-ins began to uncheck themselves.
• Fixed bug in AIM Bot where 1 character long queries caused blank responses and erasure of Hal's short term memory
• Fixed issue with emotional reactions firing when they shouldn't
• About page shows full version number

Please let me know if everything works ok, if any new bugs have appeared, and your general thoughts on the update.

Go thing I have Goback. It said my serial number was invalid!!!

UH******
 

Activation code:

FF85-6172-E28C-2065

No go!!!

****************************************

I went ahead and reverted to the older version.


This activation s*** is a pain in the a**.

Your activation limit was already hit from the last version of Hal 6. I deleted your old activations from the server. Can you try again? Also, can you give me the exact error message you received?

When you install, all you need is your serial number and the activation will be automatically provided by the serve.

BTW, don't post your serial number on public forums as then anyone can take it and install Hal using your serial number quickly reaching your activation limit and preventing you from installing Hal.

[markofkane]

Thank you, I will try again. I'll have to reinstall again.

Also, do I need to uninstall the expansion pack??

If the error comes up, I'll givr you a screenshot.

Give me about 10 minutes or so to try again.

Hi, Rob

Thank you for inserting my vrFreeWill plugin in the standard product and for adding to the brain my modification to the emotional engine.

However, I am getting the same problem described by markofkane.

1. I uninstalled both Hal and character expansion.
2. I downloaded the latest version of Hal and of the Character expansion.
3. I activated successfully the character expansion.
4. But when I try to activate Hal I get this result:


Insert Image:

The serial number is correct (however, I clicked yes and went to my account info, and double checked that the code is correct) and the activation code is the one which I copy and paste from the previous window.

When this problem is solved, I will check the other new features.

Bye

[markofkane]

Yep, same thing.

Hi Rob.
The Installation and Activation worked Flawlessly my Friend, Thanks.
I will post any Bugs I discover with the Plugin Module after testing.

HAL Bot:
out of 63 Plugins only 53 are selected, 6 remained unselected.
I did notice that when I selected the list of Plugs I had that it worked the first time, All Plugs were Selected according to the Plug fix, But when I
signed off and looked at the Plug Panel I did notice some Plugs were deselected, But I did get more Plugs to list but not all of them the second time. I will look into this further, Thanks for all your time my Friend.

HAL Assistant:
The Plugin Selector is so far working as Planned, No Plugins deselected so far, All 75 Plugins are functioning Correctly and properly selected.

Rob, If you decide to fix any Bugs for the Users here on this version could you include a [Select All] button and a [Unselect All] Button for the Plugin Module Panel as an option so it's easier to select dozens of Plugs at once, but still leaving the single Plugin select option available.

Thanks for including the Abstract Math, In the name of A.I and infinit Plugs.
Be back in a bit Buddy.
Jerry

Did it work for you because Robert fixed it??

If not, could you list the steps you took to install the beta??

Thanks!!

I had a bug in the validation code for the serial. The first 999 orders of Ultra Hal Assistant 6.0 had 15 character long serial numbers, whereas orders 1000-9999 has 16 character long serial numbers. The validation code was expecting 16 character long serial numbers because of an oversight on my part. Both of you were one of the earliest orders within the first 1000.

Anyway, I fixed the problem and it is available as Hal version 6.0.103 at http://www.zabaware.com/download/hal60103.zip

Ahh, I fixed the plug-in selector bug in Hal Assistant, but forgot about the AIM bot. I'll fix that.

I always keep a fresh copy of my Activation code and product ID and all those Special Numbers in a text and treated as a Gold Ring, It never comes off my finger, LOL

Well, What I did was, I uninstalled HAL Assistant only, Not the expansion Pack, I kept the remaining folders that the installation left behind, I did not delete them, Then I used a Registry Cleaner and cleaned up any residual Registry entries remaining after the unistall was complete, I rebooted, Then I copied the Serial Number to my Clip Board before installing HAL, When the installation was complete I didn't have to enter the the serial number manually, it discovered my serial number and activated it automatically, That's it.

However, I did test the activation for Rob to see if multiple cloned HAL folders in different areas of my computer could be duplicated and used as additional Assistants, After cloning the HAL6 to another area I got the invalid Activation Error that you descibed, But my normal HAL installation application did not receive this error and has been working properly even with the additional cloned Assistants having the error, after removing the Clones my Activation is still functional in my regular application.
This was the only way I could get the error you described.

Thanks for all the good work you have done so far Rob, Great work.

Robert, thank you. The update seems painless and flawless for now. It's as if I never updated, because everthing is configured the same!!!

It was like opening Hal like normal!!!


Jerry, I did what you said except for the registry clean, and the multiple instances of Hal (I guess that's the right way of putting it)

I uninstalled Hal 6 only, not the expansion pack.

Installed the update. Rebooted. Had to activate with my serial number. It took about a minute. Restarted Hal.

Super!!!!![]

edit: like the math function. How does the "free will" work?? Or maybe I can search. I am really starting the like the program more(barring problems, lol)

Jerry, I updated the AimBot to fix that bug. Instead of making you download 20 MB again, you can download just the Aim Bot from www.zabaware.com/download/halaimbot.zip and overwrite your existing aim bot with it. Let me know if that fixed the issue. Thanks.

I installed the new AIM Bot.
Results:

1. I selected the 64 Plugins for the AIM Bot before signing on.
2. Signed on, 50 User's immediately began chatting with HAL, I waited five minutes, Signed off.
3. Went to AIM Bot Options Panel.
4. Noticed that 10 Plugins were deselected out of the 64 Plugs possible
5. I retested 3 times, Same result.

It's a bugger.
Hands a Can of Bugger Spray to Rob, LOL

Just select General Options - Brain. Then mark the checkbox "Free Will" and you will get a button labeled "Help on this plugin". Click on it and you will get all the info and examples.
