OOTP Developments Forums - View Single Post - Hackers win; how to run online without web

rasnell · 05-25-2009, 01:29 PM

After two hacks, many updates and hours lost this holiday, we still are getting a trojan alert on the new, scrubbed clean, freshly installed and updated web site. (EDIT: Once bookmarks were removed and the cache cleared, the new site was fine for the lone GM. However, I'm still looking for options other than a web site).

I've had this league running through nine seasons and have great GMs.

What are the steps to run this league manually, without a web site?

I want to zip the league file and send via email, without ftp or web, etc. Anyone else doing this? Is there a simpler or faster way for owners to get the updated league file without having to unzip and manually overwrite the league file after each sim?

If there is not a manual workaround, I regret to inform my super GMs that my online league experience is going to come to an end because of these hacker attacks through OOTP 9.2.13.
