https://svn2.xp-dev.com/svn/rajkosto-mxoemu/ the svn repo for all of this.... Any other then Lithium would even understand this?

Compiled code

Copy the files to your MxO Folder run the program... It works in the sense that you can run the game.

It works.  However, all you are able to do at the moment is run around and look at things; no emotes, jumps, hardlines, opening doors, using vendors, etc.  You are able to toy around with character creation, but you may go no further than submitting your name.  Regardless, it still feels good to jack in and run around a bit, hassling bluepills. :D

On a side note, for those of you without game discs - I attempted to install MxO on my laptop via the MxO Launcher, followed by adding the files and running RealityD - no go.  If you, for whatever reason, wind up needing to reinstall MxO on your PC, it looks as if you will be in need of the game discs.

Yeah he is building up server code in C++. You need to load the solution into Visual Studio 2008 with SVN.

They basically have lots and lots of packet logs, which are 0's and 1's (bits) converted to hex (one hex letter/number is a series of 4 bits), which are sent between the client and the server. They are trying to interpret what the client and server is expecting the make the game work.

They are not on the wrong track but I think a big step would be better to decompile to readable source code on the client, as, it would probably be easier to get past encyrcption techniques by making client side changes. (Hence why I think they have a prime generator in the SVN solution, they are trying to break simple encryptions.) But I suppose then you start breaking copyrights.

I'll check it out a little bit more this afternoon.

It looks like with a lot of time and testing we could get the FA gear back onto the players. (Which would also allow us to dress up in anything we wanted making the RSI look anyway we wanted, that was in game). But like someone else said above all we can do is move around, their isn't even jumping yet. I haven't heard anything about multiple players though.

Maybe we'll eventually be able to see Adad: Awakening after all? :D

haha, let's all pray.  If we have a free server sometime semi-soon we could do a whole series of origin/awakening stories, like Hollywood is doing with all the superheroes now.  That could be a lot of fun.  If only we had a director/director of photography/cameraman ....someone find one

I had a chance to look through Rajko's Proxy Solution. (The other solutions are basically SDKs for various operations made by 3rd parties.) And he seems to be very proficient and working at a very high skill level in packet manipulation with C++. I compiled his solution but didn't test it out because I don't have MxO on my tablet but by the sounds of it after making appropriate changes to your HOSTS file you can run around in game.

It will be interesting to follow this project as not only will it build up a workable server but I can also learn from the code he writes, hah. But I do fear that this server will only get much much more difficult as it progresses. Sifting through game packets will be a massive puzzle to solve, along with creating an infrastructure and database design from scratch will be a considerable task.

I extracted the files and tried running it. Doesn't work for me...I get auth servers are down when I try to login...

Title: Re: MXO Emulation
Post by: Tbone on August 06, 2009, 09:09:54 pm
Yeah, I got that part working. I was able to authenticate and got stuck at loading character. Now I'm stuck at authenticating again...

hmm I keep getting Auth servers are unavailable.  How did you get past that Tbone?

Run RealityD.exe and wait until it finally connects to something. Then run Matrix2
