Pretender Development Temporarily Halted
Posted By n/a
PRETENDER -Guid- | ↑ | From Pretender:
Pretender development is temporarily halted. I'm currently way too busy with my job and i cannot spare any time to continue
coding on Pretender.
I have not yet committed any sourcecode to the Pretender CVS tree, because it is still very incomplete and barely working. If you
are interested in taking over development, contact me: v00d00 [at] users.sourceforge.net.

Pretender Source Code Released:
Posted By n/a
PRETENDER -Guid- | ↑ | Pretender Source Code has been Released:
Pretender sourcecode has been committed to the CVS repository today. The sourcecode includes:
- fully working patchserver implementation
- fully working infoserver implementation
- very basic gameserver functionality, currently limited to user authentication and character selection/creation (no game logic yet)
- .pak access code
- .def parser
- unfinished telnet console access
It should compile fine with VC++ .NET 2002, other compilers have not been tested.
There's no documentation available but you may ask for help here or drop me a mail: v00d00 [at] users.sourceforge.net.
Note: the CVS tree mirror for anonymous access on Sourceforge is usually delayed 24 to 48 hours. If there's no module called
"Pretender" (case sensitive!), try again later.

Pretender CVS Update
Posted By n/a
PRETENDER -Guid- | ↑ | Pretender has a new CVS update:
I finally got some time to fix some issues and add some features.
Recently committed code allows a single player to walk around in plaza_p1.
Some more character management functionality has been added; char creation is still incomplete though.
Pretender is now compatible to client versions 191+ (up to 196), earlier patch levels have not been tested.
These are the main fixes:
- Fixed some potential security issues
- Upgraded servers to version 196
- Removed hardcoded remote console port (2070), the port is now taken from config.xml
- Fixed buffer overflow bug in Socket::Update() and Socket::FlushSendBuffer()
- UDP timeout bug fixed (flooded console with timeout messages)
In addition, NC_Tunnel 0.14b has been released:
- tested server version 196 compatibility
- adjustable remote patch/list ports
It is now possible to use nc_tunnel between client and Pretender
on the same computer, ports in Pretender need to be adjusted in order
to make use of this possibility
- IP/port settings are saved between sessions
