This is a great Instructable, but you need to add a main image of the final project to the intro step. Please do that and leave me a message when you have so that we can publish your work. Thanks!

[techno_pig]

OK, I put the main image. Please publish this one only, I thought the other ones didn't work. Thank You!

[Ramzes]

Its fu**ing amazing :D

[rocketman7]

this isn't a hack! This is some ASCII art animation written up by two guys who published it on Telnet!

[Dark-player]

If this is a hack try: "telnet %%"
where %% is a link underneath:

WINTERMUTE.HOMEUNIX.COM
bbs.hispamsx.org
scn.org
tek1systems.com
warzone.dyndns.org

just some nice BBS for the console ...

You can also type "telnet towel.blinkenlights.nl".
This will also work in other OS's. In Mac, or other *nix environments, you just need to open a terminal and enter the same command.

In windows, under Vista and newer, you need to allow "telnet client" under the Programs and Features menu.

Not really a hack, but still very cool.

[azzer98jf]

how do i get the sound

[scratchr]

FYI: the command also works on linux.

[XOIIO]

Not a hack, it's simply connecting telnet to a remote server, and this is pretty old but it's nice to see people still know about it.

[CamWaite]

Not sure if anyone said but on vista and 7 you have to enable telnet as described here: http://www.fettesps.com/windows-7-enable-telnet/

[Pantalaimonpan]

Wahh it won't load the telnet client I waited about 2 hours and it won't load!

[stark9000]

awesome awesome awesome !

you guys rock !

[Jimmy2190]

Click the Start button , click Control Panel, click Programs, and then click Turn Windows features on or off. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation. In the Windows Features dialog box, select the Telnet Client check box. Click OK. The installation might take several minutes.

[cscash241]

[ReCreate]

what? that comment is pretty old

[eddahlen]

You can enable vista to allow telnet by going to:
Control Panel> Programs and Features> Turn Windows Features On and Off.

Scroll down the list and put a check next to Telnet Client. Let the computer configure. (took me about 2-3 minutes) Then it should work. =]

[i make shooting things]

[Jordz1995]

This is not a hack, its just a simple stars wars video, that not alot of people no about, i dont know where you got hack from :s

[J-Manoo7]

for a thousand time THIS IS NOT A HACK you are just connecting to a website using telnet!! If anyone wants to see this WITHOUT using telnet click here btw its on a site which isn't on google and took me awhile to find, the "movie" is super big like widescreen too

[tomman]

may the force be with you

[bounty1012]

This isnt a hack

[nrepak]

thanks for the vista tips. Just did, this very cool.

[jirus95]

I really like this vid, thanks man

[GENIUS!!]

it was cool I watched about 10mins of it!

[leolion112]

or u could just type telnet into the run box as you have added another step thats not needed

[emuman4evr]

This isnt working for me sadly...

[techno_pig]

if you don't have internet it doesn't work. it is on a telnet protocol, which connects to the server at towel.blinkenlights.nl so no internet = no connect

[TATcreator]

^{of course he has internet, if not how would he have left a message?}

[The Mollusk]

Lol how do you think he got to this site?

[evilducky_00]

This only works in XP if you have vista: Go to Start -> Control Panel - Programs and Features->"Turn Windows Features On or Off". Wait for it to load. Takes a while. Scroll down to the bottom and put a check "Telnet Client". Hit OK. Then wait for it to configure again takes a while. Then follow above instructions

[arthur8]

Very Good ! thanks ;D

[Perky G]

Cool

[mattnbrenda]

Impressive! Most Impressive

[computerfaker3]

awsome!! and thanks for the tip on getting vista to work

[tgfmk2]

this is totally mad

[Derin]

wish there was more episodes

[mage]

lol, awesome. just uberawesome

[Vspec]

cool, but this has been around for over 10 years now,thanks for informing everyone about it,but you should at least give credit to those who made this film and to those who maintain the site.

[EnigmaMax]

watched this five times. too bad there's no sound

[16zzundel5]

You should do other telnet vids ands you should do some so it looked like a Virus

[Future filmaker]

That's cool!

[Shentianqi]

awesome!!!! But not really good graphics Good Job

[The Mollusk]

U should make a Predator video and host it through telnet.

[smidge147]

not really a hack.

[Scott_Tx]

I think this is posted about every 3 months by someone. I recall its not the complete movie either.

[Bongmaster]
