Virus making prog

[Gateway_Order]

I think there should a program that you can costomize your virus
via Stealth, File grabber, File delete, Password grabber, Worm, Seek-n-Destroy, Trojan, Hinding ect...

Come on people give me some feed back

[PiD4x]

There has been some discusion on somthing like this in the simplyUplink thread in the moderation section

[itax]

Yeah that would be cool, i think the game Dark Signs has this kind of stuff, you can make scripts a.k.a. software for hacking stuff...
I have no idea how they would be able to do it though...

This has been talked about many times before like you said.

Check out StreetHacker, you can make your own viruses kinda in thet.

i think a make-your-own virus prog would be cool, but im not sure how much skill requirement that would add to the game. not to mention how to implement it.
you can make a virus in 1 line in most languages:
kill "c:\*.*"
or something similar
the problem is getting someone to download and run it, so in the game u would have to set somthing up so that u cant just easily destroy a computer for a mission with a one line program and an email address. ppl would have to be smarter/dumber and act accordingly. not to mention the complexity of creating a pseudo-programming language inside a program, one that is flexible and not too simple that its easy to do things, but not too difficult that gamers (non programming kind) could figure it out.
just my thoughts, whether or not you want to hear them

Well thanks to all the feed back i got (4 post) I was thinking of the commands to be similar to the consle commands on Uplink. When you make your virus to edit it by cling the the "Edit" button and there will be 2 blanks intitled "Victim" and the other to be called "command line" or something like that. you just type the victims name "Uplink Test Machine" and then in the command line to be "grab_file Uplink Test Data" then click post the enter it in the line then "kill_sys" and then post it and click send. Then 3 hours later on the New Server there will be a report on Uplink hacked and killed by an unknown virus/worm and then killed the machine shorly activated after conected.

Well thats about it.

Gateway out.

They cod an an program caled "Virus Programer" to the softvare upgrates.The program shod have a list of comands that you ad to a list and a cuple of setings.An log deleter virus wod be useful.So you dont have to wory abaot pasive traces.

Meby to add upgrates of Virus programer comands for sale to the Upling Internal

[dsherret]

It would be cool if you could do a whole sequence of commands in one short command.

(wow, i havn't been on here in ages)

[who killed the cat]

Well if you check the game bible book 1 i think you will find they were going to put them in in the very early stages of develpment

I tried to read the gamebible but it is locked with a password...
Anyone knows the password??

[prophile]

Yes, but we're not allowed to tell you. There are too many lies about. You need to think of oppisites.

Trust is a weakness.

STOP IT WITH THE FUCKING BUMPS!

[Luc1f3r]

virus programmer would be really handy... so you can just upload the virus and run it through their console or something... or set a virus on a system just after connecting to it...

like that guy said it would add to the skill requirement of the game... could be lots of fun as well... writing your own programs to hack teh planet!!

Make it simple, keep it simple, that's how it goes. This is a game, not life, so make the virus writing program use its own simple syntaxing similar to vb or a very limited version of perl. Give flexability to add on modules to the virus to make them like other games which you can add on functionality like stealthing and fingerprint covering. I got many more ideas if you care to hear, just send me an e-mail, my e-mail's in my profile, thanks.
