About Remote-X
Remote-X has been in development for over a year, I had become interested in developing a remote admin client as I needed access to my server from machines that I couldn't play Half-Life on, or sometimes when I was doing other things I felt like having a quick glance in my server and couldn't. I had downloaded a fair few Remote admin programs that didn't give me what I wanted, they didn't have many features, it was just basically RCON in a window and the "better" ones just relied on programs like admin_mod to do stuff for them, so interacting with the players etc was far from easy, and information I got about the server was limited to say the least. So I decided to create what I wanted myself, an app that would allow full control over a server with security and many features, this app was Remote-X. Within a month the first version was done and was released, it featured many things that had never been seen before in a freeware Half-life server app, however it had many flaws and problems. So after another few months that was scrapped and Remote-X v2 underwent planning, development of RX2 was soon put on hold as I became very busy, but once I could, I began developing it. This time I had a much clearer idea of what was required and I also knew what problems I had been faced with in RX1 and took this into account when building RX2, and after about 9 months of development its where it is today.
Remote-X has many features such as a user levels system, encrypted security on data being sent to and from the Remote-X Client, advanced player options, built in scripting engine and plugin DLL support for customizability, detailed live information on the server broadcasted to all connected clients in real time, as frequent as once per second. Simultaneous connection of up to 50 admins on one server, ability to run the server application as an NT service and much more! This is definitely a tool for the hardcore HL server administrator.
