GTA V How to steal and fly a Fighter Jet

Are you experiencing ‘LAG’ in your minecraft session. A lot of people will deem that lag will come from the server your connected to and that it cannot handle the load. Others will say that its your Internet connection, or your ping time. Well I have a few things that I can share and I hope that it can help you in your experience as well.
I am currently running my own Minecraft server on Debian Wheezy. It is running with 4 cores and 8GB RAM with a 50GB HDD. This is a dedicated server and nothing is running on this server except Minecraft. I don’t have any issues with any of my computers at work or my 3 desktop computers at home. At home I have a 50Mb connection and my ping times to my server are normally within the 20′s to 30′s ms. However on my Macbook Pro I seem to have some ‘Lag’ so I was fooling around with some settings and would you believe it .. no more ‘Lag’.
Nothing changed with my connection speed just the setting within minecraft. Heres what I did
In Minecraft press the escape key (ESC) this will bring you to the Game menu.
Next click on Options…
From there choose Video Settings…
Change the following:
- Graphics: Fast
- Render Distance: Tiny (limits view distance to 32 blocks)
- Smooth Lighting: Off or Minimum
- Performance: Balanced or Powersaver (limits to 35fps)
- Advanced OpenGL: Off
- Particles: Decreased
- Use VSync: Off
Doing this should really increase your performance and reduce the ‘Lag’ you may see. I did this for my Mac, and although I have a pretty decent Mac, it did speed things up and I got better performance.
Since there is no real easy way to do this and since virt-manager is not for OSX – Here is the best thing we can do.
Since I have virt-manager installed on my linux machine at work – and I can connect to that machine from home. Here is what I can do. Open a terminal on my mac and ssh into my machine –
ssh -l USERNAME -X myserver
This will then allow you to type in virt-manager and it will open up on your screen though X11 – XQuartz
So everyone at work was telling me how I should try out Debian on my server at work because it is so much more stable then Ubuntu – Currently running Ubuntu 12.04 LTE server edition.
So I headed over to http://mirrors.xmission.com and downloaded a copy of Debian.
Then I fired up my virt-manager from my local machine and created a 50GB virtual drive on my main server. 4 cores and 8GB ram.
Started the installation and choose SSH Server and Standard System Utilities on the software selection.
All went well and now at a command prompt to log in.
Logged in and the first thing I wanted to do is install VIM and ctags
So trying to sudo to root – I noticed that my user was not in the sudoers file – then I realized that I created a password for the root user when I installed. Doing this it does not install sudo on the machine. I guess some sort of precautionary measure.
So I had to su to root – then do an apt-get install sudo to install sudo .. very easy.
Then I added my user to the sudo file with: adduser user sudoers
Now I was able to apt-get install vim and ctags with no issues.
Now what do I do with it?
Step 1 – Stop mysql service
# /etc/init.d/mysql stop
You should see something like this
Stopping MySQL database server: mysqld.
Step 2 – Start MySQL server with out password
# mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables &
You can also run
service mysql start --skip-grant-tables
You should see something like this
Starting MySQL.. SUCCESS!
Step 3 – Connect to mysql server using root user
# mysql -u root
You will see something like this
Welcome to the MariaDB monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MariaDB connection id is 4
Server version: 5.1.55-MariaDB-mariadb98 (MariaDB - http://mariadb.com/)

and you are welcome to modify and redistribute it under the GPL v2 license
Type ‘help;’ or ‘\h’ for help. Type ‘\c’ to clear the current input statement.
MariaDB [(none)]>
Step 4 – Set up new MySQL password for the root user
MariaDB [(none)]> use mysql;
MariaDB [mysql]> update user set password=PASSWORD("9nji77~") where User='root';
MariaDB [mysql]> flush privileges;
MariaDB [mysql]> quit
Step 5 – Stop MySQL Server
# /etc/init.d/mysql stop
You should see something like this
Stopping MySQL database server: mysqld.
Step 6 – Start MySQL Server and test
So you have this cool app called SnapChat – and you get clips all day long of cute pictures and funny videos – and within seconds its gone. Never to be found again. Or is it? With a little digging and a some hacking – I believe to have found a clue on Android at least.
This will require your phone be ‘rooted’ if you don’t know what that is – this may be too advanced for you – google it – then come back.
You will need a Android App called SSHDroid – it is free ‘with ads’ but still will work –
You will need a Mac / Linux or PuTTY (Win) and a Terminal Opened
You will need a folder on your extSdCard to store the SnapChats
Download SSHDroid from Google Play and open after it has installed.
It will give you an IP address that you can use to connect to via SSH in my case
ssh root@192.168.1.113
After you connect it tells you the default root password .. simply enter this info in .. and .. … you are connected to your Android Phone via SSH
Now you will need to do 1 thing first before you start hacking away to find where these SnapChats are located. So here is some education … Directly from SnapChat
When someone sends a snap, it is uploaded to our servers, the recipient(s) are sent a notification that they have a new snap and the Snapchat app downloads a copy of the message. The image or video from the message is stored in a temporary folder in the device’s memory. This is sometimes in internal memory, RAM or external memory like an SD Card—depending on the platform and whether it’s a video or a picture.
While an unopened snap is being stored on the device, it’s not impossible to circumvent the Snapchat app and access the files directly. This isn’t something we support or encourage and in most cases it would involve jailbreaking or “rooting” the phone and voiding its warranty. If you’re trying to save a snap, it would be easier (and safer) to just take a screenshot or take a picture with another camera.
cd /data/data/com.snapchat.android/cache/received_image_snaps
-rw------- 1 u0_a211 u0_a211 66682 Jun 2 22:28 h1a81hurcs00h1372307294812.jpg.nomedia
-rw------- 1 u0_a211 u0_a211 13570 Jun 2 00:16 h1a81hurcs00h1372313771871.jpg.nomedia
-rw------- 1 u0_a211 u0_a211 66682 Jun 22 00:16 h1a81hurcs00h1372313772277.jpg.nomedia
Notice they end in .nomedia –
Next you can copy them to a more remote location for your viewing pleasure – or storage.
If you haven’t already .. create a folder on your extSdCard – I called mine Snapchat – you can do this with your file browser on your phone
Now lets copy these files out of here and into your remote location in /storage/extSdCard/Snapshat
cp h1a81hurcs00h1372313771871.jpg.nomedia /storage/extSdCard/Snapchat/
Once those files have been copied – you can then cd to that directory and ‘rename’ the files
cd /storage/extSdCard/Snapchat
mv h1a81hurcs00h1372313771871.jpg.nomedia picture1.jpg
‘mv’ is the universal command to rename a file in unix. Plus if you noticed I just renamed it to whatever I wanted ‘.jpg’ .. if you do not take off the .nomedia you will not be able to view what it is.
So now that you have moved the files that were in the ‘temporary’ folder you can then go back to SnapChat and view your snaps. You can then use your File Browser on your phone and navigate to the folder where you copied your Snaps and then renamed them, and they will be there forever.

Installing Java on Ubuntu 12.04 – to the novice can be a not so easy task .. but thanks to my installs of this OS on my server I believe I have it down pat .. here is what I do .. and this should work for you as well ..
First you just want to make sure you are up to date
$ sudo apt-get update
Next
$ sudo apt-get upgrade
Next we will install python-software-properties
This software provides an abstraction of the used apt repositories. It allows you to easily manage your distribution and independent software vendor software sources.
$ sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
Now that this is installed we can install the repositories needed to install Oracle Sun Java
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/java $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install oracle-java7-installer
You can also install JDK
$ sudo apt-get install openjdk-7-jre

Server went down again – not sure why .. so I completely de-banned the harddrives making sure nothing on them was causing any issues – ran a fsck on the drives all turned out well – s0 .. I put on Ubuntu back on Server 12.04 LTS – and starting to put everything back on –
The server is Intel Xeon E5645 2.40GHz with only 8gb ram .. looking to update to 64 when I get the cash – and maybe adding an additional E5645 to make it a dual CPU .. but its a 6core chip .. so it works great for what I need for now.
Got 2 300gb hd in raid 0 and 2 external drives just for added storage. totaling about 1TB total for the server.
This will be used for hosting most of my sites – and the minecraft servers –
Sites will be hosted from the main host while the Minecraft servers will be up on Virtual Servers. I have done this before and they work well .. but will need testing later on. So if you are reading this and want to join some Minecraft servers hop on. There will be a misture of Vanilla, Bukkit, Feed the Beast, and more .. I will update this post as I add them. Hosting them for free YES indeed .. however donations are always welcome.
One of the Minecraft servers will be at chicken.servemycraft.com – 4 core / 1gb ram / 25gb HD space – I will be adding more servers later with more ram / hd / and cores. This server will accommodate 1 – 10 players.
The main site servemycraft.com will be primarily used as a guide for Minecraft – I know there are 100’s out there but I like to design and well thats what it will be used for. There will also be tutorials / or How to’s for those that get stuck. Props will go to the sites I get my info from and link backs as well.
