Reversing Spellborn

Awesome, I really hope to walk in Hawksmouth once again ^^

 

I've looked into markdown support, but the IPB3 editor can't handle this (at all... it won't even accept other plugins afaik).

 

Hopefully this'll be fixed in IPB4.

Forgot to thank you for your post JW! Yes videos help to bring back memories, watching them can help to find hint in reversing. Reversing the patcher is not useful because you can hardly emulate it, so I launch directly the client.

 

Edit: Don't know if its very useful but a short video to show you the 0.9 character creation screen (do not show the last steps but they are accessible).

The website storing the video has a lot of ads, sorry for that:

Looks good so far.

 

Can I upload it on my youtube channel?

There are still some TCoS fans who check my channel sometimes so more people would see your progress and may go to this site.

I'd kill to do just that again. Blown away by nostalgia right here. 

@Kaiyn: No problem, I have a better quality available if you want, just have to upload it somewhere.

@CowMooFlage: If you are interested and if I have the time I can maybe make a dummy program allowing you to access to the character creation. It would not be very user friendly but it's possible because actually that's what I use, would just have to clean things a little and package it.

Nice Job Saltiel,

 

For me it's a first view on the 0.9 login, my actual start of playing Spellborn was at a later version, the EU servers were allready down, So I got stuck with the US (Acclaim) version.

 

Comparing the skeletal meshes with your video gives me something to work at again also.

 

Greetings Jan-Willem.

Thx Saltiel.

I've uploaded it now.

 

Awesome job Saltiel, I figured out my prob, had too big a login packet which causes the client to read the extra data as the start of the next packet! I'm now getting the game through universe selection thanks to your documentation

Sounds lovely but I'd rather see it playable (in one form or another) for everyone to enjoy. 

Awesome Work Saltiel , Don't know why but had the urge to check in on spellborn see what the latest info and gossip was, and was pleasently  surprised to find someone working on packet work to get into the game .. I wish you all the luck I can give!.. im not very smart when it comes to "reversing" but will be following the extra links you put in here to see if maybe I could learn something :/..  Good luck with it!.. I know we are all very eager to be able to again run around TCOS.. at least once more!.. even if only half there.. Even Seeing the login screen / shard screen.. made me smile and remember the fun .
