Bugs This topic publishes and discusses bugs that were found in certain mods based on the results of their testing and usage. 1. Change the size of the monsters - After an indefinite time, the enlarged character model returns to normal size (@Fomin). 2. Displaying the cooldown of skills - When teleporting or re-entering the game, the display of the cooldown time of skills disappears (@Fomin). 3. Displaying coordinates under the NPC - Sometimes instead of the name of the player's character, the name of a random NPC is displayed (@dragontechi). 4. 60 frames per second (60 FPS) - After installing the mod, the frame rate does not change (@dragontechi, @squaller). 5. Disabling password verification when entering into the in-game shop (IGS) - The store does not display the number of crystals on the account (@Tera). 6. Editing the limits of .txt tables - GameServer.exe has undefined behavior when changing the skillinfo.txt limit. For example, only Sleepy snails spawn at the entrance to Argent (@Greaux). 7. Displaying the level of items on their icons ("smart icons") - Client closes with mod version for Game.exe GAME_13X_1 (@small666).

[Mod] GateServer extension for "offline" stall server (StallServer) This modification of GateServer is designed to determine the IP addresses of clients that are behind the "offline" stall server (StallServer). Since StallServer is essentially a proxy server through which the client (Game) connects to the game server (GateServer), the GateServer will not "see" the real IP address of the client, and in logs and database all players will have the same StallServer IP address (for example, 127.0.0.1 if both GateServer and StallServer are running on the same machine). To solve this problem, StallServer writes the client's IP address to the login packet, which requires GateServer to be modified to read the IP address from the packet and bind it to the client.

this mod is not mine it was shared by @1g0rS1lv4 It was adapted to the last pirates custom loader, which is the same version of @V3ct0r, so you can change the last to pkodev, it may contain some type of error that you may not know, I only made an adaptation, thanks to @1g0rS1lv4 and @V3ct0r for the help provided https://mega.nz/file/hZlmlAqb#zDx6Ej6fUihSy6DHNEdzi3-Grt_dKbm0Fmj3nco4ki8

PKOdev.NET mod loader project template for Visual Studio 2019 Community I am posting a template project for Visual Studio 2019 Community, which is designed to develop mods for PKOdev.NET mod loader using the C++ programming language. The project includes 1) File structure (address.h, pointer.h, hook.h, structure.h, dllmain.cpp); The address.h file contains the addresses of imported functions and objects from the .exe file. This file also defines the namespaces for the corresponding versions of the .exe file, within which it is necessary to specify the addresses for each version of the executable file. All addresses should be in the address namespace. namespace address { // Game.exe 2 (1252912474) namespace GAME_13X_2 { // void CHeadSay::Render(D3DXVECTOR3& pos) const unsigned int CHeadSay__Render = 0x00470770; } // Game.exe 4 (1585009030) namespace GAME_13X_4 { // void CHeadSay::Render(D3DXVECTOR3& pos) const unsigned int CHeadSay__Render = 0x004707D0; } } The pointer.h file contains pointers to imported functions from the .exe file. All pointers should be in the pointer namespace. namespace pointer { // void CHeadSay::Render(D3DXVECTOR3& pos) typedef void(__thiscall* CHeadSay__Render__Ptr)(void*, D3DXVECTOR3&); CHeadSay__Render__Ptr CHeadSay__Render = (CHeadSay__Render__Ptr)(void*)(address::MOD_EXE_VERSION::CHeadSay__Render); } The hook.h file contains the definitions of the hook functions of the original functions from the .exe file. All hooks should be in the hook namespace. namespace hook { // void CHeadSay::Render(D3DXVECTOR3& pos) void __fastcall CHeadSay__Render(void* This, void* NotUsed, D3DXVECTOR3& Pos); } The structure.h file contains various data structures necessary for the mod to work. // 3D vector structure struct D3DXVECTOR3 { float x; float y; float z; }; The dllmain.cpp file contains the entry point, the implementation of the loader interface functions, the implementation of the hook functions, and the mod code itself. 2) Mod loader interface (loader.h) and its implementation. 3) Build configurations for all supported .exe files with appropriate preprocessor definitions. 4) MS Detours library for hooking functions calls in .exe files. DetourAttach(&(PVOID&)pkodev::pointer::CHeadSay__Render, pkodev::hook::CHeadSay__Render); How to set up your own project 1) Rename the project files (pkodev.mod.dummy) to the name of your new mod; 2) Remove unnecessary build configurations; 3) For each build configuration, specify the name of the mod's output DLL file (Target Name); 4) For each build configuration, specify preprocessor definitions MOD_NAME, MOD_AUTHOR, and MOD_VERSION.

[Mod] Antibot Adds an anti-bot to the game that worked on the official servers of the game. The mechanism of the antibot is similar to the "captcha". During the game, at certain intervals of time, the player must enter a code that appears on the screen, consisting of 4 characters. The player has only 3 attempts. If the player makes a mistake 3 times in a row and/or does not enter the code, then his is forcibly disconnected from the server. If the answer is correct, the player can receive "rewards" - experience points, restoration of HP and SP, or an item (cake, ticket), and the counter for the number of unsuccessful attempts is reset. Antibot works under the following conditions: 1) The player's character does not have administrator and moderator rights (GM-level is 0); 2) The player's character is not in the safe zone; 3) The player's character is not in the PvP zone; 4) The player's character is on the water. Requirements Installed mod loading system for server and client (PKOdev.NET mod loader). Modification information Name: pkodev.mod.antibot; Version: 1.0; Author: V3ct0r; Type: for server (GameServer.exe); Supported executable .exe files: GAMESERVER_136 and GAMESERVER_138. Installation 1) In the "mods" directory of your GameServer, create a "pkodev.mod.antibot" folder and place into it the mod DLL file "pkodev.mod.antibot.server.13<x>.dll" for your version of GameServer.exe; 2) In the folder "resource" of your GameServer place the folder "Pic" from the attached archive with the mod; 3) In the file "functions.lua" ("GameServer\resource\script\calculate") add the code from the corresponding file from the attached archive with the mod. Interval of antibot activation The mod is configured in such a way that by default the antibot activation interval is calculated in accordance with the original algorithm that was implemented by the game developers (see the DWORD CCharacter::GetCheatInterval(int state) method from the "Character.cpp" file of the server source code). This algorithm can be changed in the function unsigned int __fastcall pkodev::hook::CCharacter__GetCheatInterval(void* This, void* NotUsed, int state) in the source code of the mod ("dllmain.cpp" file). This function should return the time interval in milliseconds. With state = 1, the function should return at least 60 seconds (65 by default), because with the specified value of this parameter, the time allotted for the player to enter a 4-character code is calculated.

Automatically connect to the server / enter the game (Client modification that allows you to automatically connect to the server) This modification allows you to specify additional parameters in the game client startup parameters for automatic connection to the server and the character's entry into the game: start system\Game.exe startgame ip:127.0.0.1 port:1973 version:136 login:V3ct0r password:123456 character:V3ct0r With this launch of the client, the player will not need to enter a username and password: the game will automatically connect to the server, and the player will enter the character selection scene. In addition, if the name of a character was specified, then the player will immediately find himself in the game for this character, bypassing the selection process. Also, the user gets the opportunity to specify the server IP address, port and version. Unlike the solution suggested by @ruubi, there is the function presented of entering with character directly into the game. The mod can be useful for conveniently launching the client and creating various auto-update programs ("launchers", "patchers") with a personal area, for example: List of available parameters: ip - server IP-address [required] port - server port version - game version from GateServer.cfg login - login of player's account [required] password - password of player's account [required] character - player's character name Parameters are written in random order in the following format: parameter:value Example: login:V3ct0r If the required ip, login and password parameters are not specified in the Game.exe startup parameters, the game will start in normal mode. If the port and version parameters are missing, the server port and game version values will be taken from Game.exe - by default. If the character parameter is not specified, then the player enters the character selection scene. Requirements Installed mod loading system for server and client (PKOdev.NET mod loader).
