Lynxx's Clean-ET

The program needs Download NET-Framework 2.0

if you dont got it, it will be automaticly downloaded & installed. (NET-Framework is like what is JDK for java). But it's best to install it first, because you can choose your language.

Quick tutorial:

  • Select your servers, addional pk3's if you like, press CleanET, when it's finished, select the server you want to join and press StartET.
  • Since ages there is a bug in enemy territory, causing it to create many different errors when there are to many pk3's in your etmain-directory.

The only 'quick and dirty' method to fix it, is to reinstall et and download all maps again.

  • I started to move the files to a storage folder by hand and only keep those needed by my favourite servers, this tool makes the same for you automaticly. You can select from standard-servers or add your own, your selection/servers will be saved in a configfile. Files which partially match the name will also be moved, because there are more and more pk3s with the same name but different content.
  • It's also possible to select some pk3 which you want to keep even if they are not used by a server, this is for soundpacks/skins.

This selection will also be saved in a configfile.

  • Finally when you click 'Clean ET' it will move the unnecessary files to 'storage', needed to etmain and even download pk3 who are missing or create a downloadlist for leechget and so on.
  • Neat side-effect when you got fewer pk3's in etmain: et will start quicker and use less memory.
  • This is Giftware, if you use it, it would be nice if you contribute me something. Code & gfx by Holger 'Lynxx' Hippenstiel.

Music by Dees Productions - originals by Fanta / Plush. If your house burns or your cat cries i'm not responsible.

  • It will look every day for updates, and ask you if you want to install it (if a new version is available).
  • It's might not be 100% bugfree, tested with dual-core cpu and because it uses multithreading sometimes it will take a few secs till threads (getting server, maps & directory-lists in background) are in sync again.

Would be nice if you got some extra ideas or report some bugs, have phun !

Changes for V1.06:

  • Only 1 music, which fits the tool more.
  • ET-Clean_server.cfg not compatible with older versions, because you now can also set password & rconpassword for servers.

Commandline-Switches: 

-n = No music
-s N = Servernumber to select at begin/for autostart, default is first selected server in serverlist.
-c Start cleaning immediatly
-e Start cleaning and start ET immediatly

You could for example do: 

CleanET -s 2 -e
  • which will clean et immediatly and download any missing maps and start et (with set password/rconpass).

Changes for V1.07:

  • Omg .. i wasnt aware NET-Framework uses such strange paths, noone would be able to find the program. blink.gif

For example when i install it, it's: 

"C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\Lynxx.LHASA\Lokale Einstellungen\Apps\2.0\CXEQ62X7.5WV\ZHPYH5Q9.ANK\clea..tion_f916eb40da8e6a70_0001.0000_673f184a1ce8fc93 \Clean-ET.exe"

That's why i did a little add-on, when path of et is set in registry, or you select it manually, a batchfile "CleanETPath.bat" will be written to the et-dir, with this you can also create shortcuts and use the commandline-args.

Changes for V1.08:

  • CleanET will now give a warning when you try to start ET with a server not selected in the list, checked servers will get a light-green background, not-checked a light-red.

Fixed a small displaybug when downloading small files, old version 'thoughts' they are for example 846 megabytes .. not bytes - so you get 200 mins downloading .. but it really finished within a second. tongue.gif Fixed a possible division by zero when calculating average speed.

Changes for V1.09:

  • Had a little bug in the parsing of map-sizes which caused wrong displaysizes with B5/B8-maps.

Changes for V1.10:

  • Highlighted/Bold the 'Add/Update' Button in server-list, because ppl usually pressing that button when setting passwords.

I hope the 'Download not visible' is fixed now (only 2 bars visible).

New Music: Dr. Demento - Ozzy Fudd - Kill the Wabbit !! Yeah !

Changes for V1.11:

  • Added Bunker 7 & Bunker 64,
  • all IP's replaced against DNS-entries.
  • Config-Files will now be stored in %Documents%\%CurrentUser%\..\Clean-ET - this means future updates of CleanEt wont spoil your old settings anymore.
  • Download-progress is now an own window, this hopefully fixes the bug only the progressbars are sometimes visible.
  • Game will ALWAYS be started with +set com_hunkmegs 96 - will be later selectable in profile.

This will fix disconnect-problems for big maps and stuff.

Changes for V1.12:

Oops .. found a little bug, when download-url not ending with / - CleanET isnt able to download - fixed.

Changes for V1.13:

OMG .. im starting to hate C#, it creates a new Application-Path for each version.

  • Now im using Systems APPDATA-Var + Clean-ET.

Changes for V1.14:

  • No more fancy download-window, all output in the normal output-area.

Changes for V1.15:

  • Improved error-handling in case download aborted manually / got disconnected.
  • No Error-Popup anymore, only the faulty file will be printed.

Changes for V1.16:

  • Added an requester when there are NO servers selected, to ask you if you really only want to keep base-files. (For those ppl who just install and click CleanET).
  • By default now ALL Bunker-servers are selected.
  • Added Server-Infodisplay to serverlist (Players, Slots and so on ..)


File:Clean-ET-Server.gif‎


  • Added Player-List to serverlist
  • Private Slots are allways green. 
     Axis light blue
     Allies are yellow
     Spectators are red
     Connecting Players/downloaders are purple.
  • Added minimal rcon-commandline to serverlist, simply type your command, output goes in the textbox below.
  • Added 'Kick' command (menu-popup) in Playerlist if you got rcon for a server, which results in:


File:Clean-ET-Kick.gif‎


  • Fixed a possible Invoke-Bug.
  • Fixed Server & Maplist only disable mainwindow at first time opened.
  • The download-music will now start immediatly, because it takes some time to read the server & map-list for the first time,

this way you know it's running and will pop up shortly.

Changes for V1.17:

Lol, forgot to remove a debug-statement from the Clean-Routine.

Changes for V1.18:

  • Splash-Window while scanning the selected servers at the begin (reading pk3-list from many servers can take some secs).
  • All Windows now show in Taskbar
  • Server and Mapslist are now real windows and are dynamicly sized - which means you can resize them freely / maximize them.
  • Downloaded file will now always have the extension .tmp added, this way if CleanET crashes while downloading incomplete file will be removed when restarting.
  • *.tmp Files are deleted recursive in et-dir when CleanET starts
  • Passwords for rcon & reserved-slot in ET-Clean_server.cfg are now encrypted, so if someone takes a look in the file he wont be able to read them. (Maybe i add an optional user-pw later on).
  • Fixed a little bug when filesize is only byte / made little improvements more errorchecks while reading html.
  • Removed a possible bug when using Design-Classes from Serverwindow in Mapswindow. (For the experts: cross-reference design-template).
  • Profile-Window graphical design complete (including a 'Play music' Button ), but implementation not yet ready.

Changes for V1.19:

  • Profile-Window implemented - you can start CleanET with -p 0..99
  • Or start CleanET select the Profile and do clean or start et.
  • Please note: Each Profile has it's own Server & Maps-List - this means user-added servers are only available in the current selected profile.

And if you enter passwords for a server, it will only be available for this profile.

  • Download-URL for B5 changed

Changes for V1.20:

Oops - had a fatal bug in StartET()-method, which made it impossible to start with a selected server, thanks to JoeShooter for the Bug-Report ! smile.gif

Changes for V1.21:

  • No more transparent Window, normal Windows-Window now - which you can move around/minimize and so on.

Sound/Module-Support removed completly, because it makes problems on 64-bit systems and will on Linux. B64 removed. New Backpicture.

Changes for V1.22:

  • I noticed a bug in the application which caused it to be never terminated, after a while you got 10 or more CleanET running.

Now fixed. And another pic again, didnt like the explosion. tongue.gif

Changes for V1.23:

  • Fixed Window behaviour - now Mainwindow will be hidden when subwindow opened and not blocking anymore, this way it possible for example as admin/players to just let it run in the back and take a look at the slots or who's on the servers.

Window-Positions now default to Windows-Default.

Changes for V1.24:

  • Windows are not topmost anymore.

Splash-Window will show which server is scanned in the moment.

Changes for V1.25:

Dam .. finally fixed the bug Clean-ET wont be terminated.

Changes for V1.26:

  • B5 download-url corrected.

All html-serveroutput converted to lowercase. smile.gif

Changes for V1.27:

OMG .. the server wants the filenames casesensitive .. ok, so only the check case-intesive ..

Changes for V1.28:

  • Added Finger-command to the serverlist (ofcourse server must support it).
  • Added Exclude-List in Mapslist-Window.
  • There you can add all Files with wildcards you dont want, for example:

News* ZBunkerRemix* s_Konigstigers* or whatever you like - but dont overdo it - if the server needs the file, ET must download it again.


File:Clean-ET-Exclude.gif‎


  • This way all ppl who complained they want to use Clean-ET, but dont want the optional news-files can exclude them,

they will still be downloaded but moved to storage.

Changes for V1.29:

  • Changed in Exclude-List where always taken, even if the window was canceled, fixed.
  • Added 342 rcon-commands to an auto-completing combobox, if you begin typing a command it will immediatly show all commands/cvars which could match and you could select one (cursor down or with mouse) or keep typing.
  • Fixed server-communication for longer output (for example pb_sv_plist).
  • Process communication improved, shorter waittimes when changing windows.
  • Added Refresh-Button in the Server-Window, which regets server-status, playerlist and so on ..
  • Added 33 mods to profile-window, vars are saved already, only problem left - where to store duplicates from mods, not sure if a global storage would be a good idea - because some files are needed for multiple mods, or maybe files from storage should not be moved but copied instead. Or maybe i'll do sub-folders in storage, but then again files would be stored/downloaded multiple times.
  • More than 2000 ppl use Clean-ET, but noone supports my work.

That's why i added a Paypal-Button/Small Browser. The release-key is outdated, new key is valid till 23.02.2009.
