I'm no expert on Mandrake or Autoconf, but maybe try here?
From an article on CNN...
I think one aspect that makes this a news story is the close-to-full-term fetus that was killed along with the mother. Murdered pregnant women tend to hit the headlines.
Otherwise, there's plenty...
Couldn't they decompile libeq.a and figure out how it works? Then again, if they could, so could you...
Resiliant, I understand your point, and I can buy the argument that some features (e.g., cartography system, windowing) were inspired by SEQ and its brethren. I also wouldn't rule out SOE deciding...
That whole argument goes in circles. You say on the one hand that it gives you no big advantage, and on the other hand you talk about how it enriches the game so much. Certainly a program like this...
My first question about trying IPC would be if the injected code is doing all the memory reading, and is capable of sending the data to a client at an arbitrary IP/port, what else is left that the...
Cavemanbob, I think a big part of the reason that Maggotboy's sniffer is difficult to detect is because it is a DLL that is injected into the eqgame.exe process space. Therefore, I think the way you...
This goes back to the discussion that has been debated over and over in these forums. As things currently stand, it may not be worth SOE's time, effort, or $$$ to look fro MySEQ users. However,...
For #6 & #9, it could be done, but instead of reading from memory, you would simply read changes to the log file. It would be a completely new input source for the server to handle, and as...
I believe the primary reason against doing this was that if you "blindly" run an automatic offset finder program and start using MySEQ with the new offsets, you risk running right into a trap set by...
C'mon Fryfrog, don't feed the trolls. ;)
I noticed you set up forums for EQ2 which is not yet released. How about Star Wars Galaxies?
Easy solution for you. Just stop coming here.
Alternatively, people with entitlement attitudes like yours could just stop visiting.
Doesn't the CVS repository allow you to submit that...
I'd chalk that up to different goals. If your goal as a professor is to get your students to learn C++, there can be some value in forcing them (through grades) to accomplish the task only using...
Ratt and Ataal, you guys took his post seriously?
Theory A: Outthere is a plant from SOE, deliberately trying to piss off the developers so that they won't release a working version of SEQ to the general public.
Theory B: Outthere sells SEQ...
I guess my thought was that if you can do it manually in Linux, someone can script it. Even if you "break" SEQ periodically, there will be a discrete set of steps to fix it.
If someone is mass...
While I loved the book Neuromancer, after being somewhat underwhelmed by the Johnny Mnemonic movie, I don't know how optimistic I'd be about Neuromancer on the big screen. I envision a sort of punk...
While I applaud the idea that you want only technically knowledgeable people running SEQ, and the overall idea of wanting to keep the user base small, I think most efforts to stop these people would...
I don't find this change surprising at all. Any of you who have been on SOE's mailing list have received multiple unsolicited account keys for free trials in an attempt to get you to buy more...
From what I've gathered so far I think the general rule here has been to stay as passive as possible.
I think making any changes to the network datastream would be much easier to detect than...
As far as I could tell, the code above was exporting the symbols--I know when I tried having it generate its own .DEF file it created the 3 functions (InstallHook, HookProc, ReleaseHook). Also, on...
I have been trying to get Maggotboy's V2 stealth code to work with the minGW gcc compiler--my thought was to introduce another compiler into the mix to increase our code diversity.
I don't have...
