q3fill.exe first time use question

Hello Luigi,

Awesome tools and great proof of concepts.

I have a question regarding using the q3fill.exe tool for the game Call of Duty 4

I am attempting to flood a test server so I am using the following command

q3fill.exe -1 [ip:port]

I have tried using -1 just as a test and it doesn't do anything.

When I try using additional options such as the punk buster, seconds to wait and such it says

" Error: Socket Timeout, no reply received "

I have checked my firewall and this program is allowed through so I guess I'm confused on the response message.

Any help would be great :)

Thank you

i dont think that firewall can block it. unless you totally block it.
" Error: Socket Timeout, no reply received "
obviously it's the connection error, because as far as i know this error only occurs when there is "no reply" from server..so it means that packets won't even get to server.

let some friend test it ?! is it locally hosted or is it some hosting company ? or is it hosted on your other pc using router ?

ip and port must be separated, like the following example:
q3fill.exe -1 127.0.0.1 27960

Hello Sethioz and Luigi,

I was able to get the program working a little bit more expect I hit a brick wall here:

I am assuming that the server it is authenticating when it incorrect. Do you know the correct authentication server for Call of Duty 4?

I have been using the following command line for execution

q3fill.exe -i -a cod4master.activision.com:20800 -k KEY IP Port

I've tried the following with no luck

1. cod4authorize.activision.com:27952 = Unable to resolve hostname

2. cod4master.infinityward.com:27952 = Unable to resolve hostname

3. cod4master.activision.com = Unable to resolve hostname

I look forward to your response.

Thank you

q3fill doesn't support the authentication of cod4, it supported only the one of quake3 mainly for experimental reasons. and I will not update the tool for this support.

anyway you could find the following link interesting:

fake-player-dos-cod4-t454.html

That link works great.

Now I just have to figure out how to compile the code and make an executable file.

I am hoping however that I can change the timeout between each bot instead of the 20 seconds.

I want to be able to keep all the bots .. same bots in the server for long periods of time.

Thank you again Luigi for the help.

use mingw to compile i guess.
"gcc -o program.exe source.c -lz -lws2_32" are options i use to compile Luigi's source codes.
ofcourse there's few small things, like the lib files that cause some problems sometimes, but im sure me or Luigi can help you out if you run into those and post details.

Thanks I was successfully able to get it to work.. and it works perfectly :)

Now I wish I could change the names of the players instead of random letters :)

Sethioz · **Posted:** 31 Dec 2008 08:06

umm Luigi. isn't it possible to replace %s with a list of names ? Not so good in C, but i think its possible to replace %s (in the player name field), with some other command that takes the names from the list you specify in the code. I guess Luigi knows the functions :)

For example if you want ONE specific name, then you have to find the player name field and replace %s with actual name and then remove the function from end of the data it sends. i haven't seen source, so i can't give you example.

Ah ok good idea .. I'll try that.

Thank you

depends by the tool, anyway q3fill implements the -n option which automatically loads the players nicknames from the file q3fill.ini in the current directory

Sethioz · **Posted:** 01 Jan 2009 20:27

see ? easier than i tought (as i said i never used it myself). i think it would have been enought for you to simply run it and then you should have seen all the commands :)

I have names in the .ini files, but it wont use them. Thoughts?

aluigi · **Posted:** 08 Feb 2009 23:31

q3fill.ini must be in the same folder in which you are launching q3fill.
note that from "where you are launching q3fill" is different to "where is located q3fill"

kidbratt91 · **Joined:** 08 Feb 2009 22:29 **Posts:** 5

same location. But i guess i should be asking, should it be just the name or anything special?

aluigi · **Posted:** 09 Feb 2009 00:41

the name of the file must be q3fill.ini.

anyway, now just for curiosity, I was watching the code of q3fill and I have already added some time ago the function which loads the q3fill.ini file from the same location of q3fill.exe, so delete what I said before, the only important thing is that q3fill.ini is in the same folder of q3fill.exe and naturally that you use the -n option to enable the usage of the names from this file

the -n option does not work, maybe an example, and i can figure it out

aluigi · **Posted:** 09 Feb 2009 12:51

q3fill -n 127.0.0.1 27960
