I already saw the tutorial there, complex

I thought the same when I first looked at it in it's entireity, though is you take it step by step it turned out to be really, pretty easy.

For some reason the game sends a 75 byte packet when choosing not to invite a roommate. If you choose to invite them, a 33 byte packet is made.


I will probably post the files and the cityserver.exe file in a .zip in a bit, no promises though, since my focus is currently now on the messaging system (I just made a post about it)

Just reminding people of this

I did not understand this parts:

• Make a backup of authlogin.dll. Then open it with a hex editor. Replace the 5 bytes “68 00 30 C0 84″ (in version 1.1097.1.0 these appear at offset 0x8325) with “68 00 00 40 84″. Also, replace the 5 bytes “68 BB 01 00 00″ (in version 1.1097.1.0 these appear at offset 0x82AC) with “68 50 00 00 00″.
• Make a backup of TSOServiceClientD.dll. Then open it with a hex editor. Replace the 8 bytes “68 74 74 70 73 3A 2F 2F” (in version 1.1097.1.0 these appear at offset 0x923C0) with “68 74 74 70 3A 2F 2F 00″.
• Make a backup of InternetServiceD.dll. Then open it with a hex editor. Replace the 7 bytes “74 07 68 BB 01 00 00″ (in version 1.1097.1.0 these appear at offset 0x17B2) with “EB 07 68 BB 01 00 00″. Not all versions of the game contain this code (play test and EA-Land do not), so for those versions, this file should remain untouched.

you need a hex editor for that.

I heard "HexEditor" was good

Me and Fatbag use wxHexEditor alhough that's prone to crashing since it's still in beta I think.

 

[LetsRaceBwoi]

turns out it's hexedit but whatever

Ok, I have a nearly correctly formatted peice of mail now, only issue remaining is that Avatar should be an avatar's name... I'm not sure how to fix that, but I'll see to it later.

They'll be in your TSO installation folder

notepad++ is a hexeditor?

 

[ultra_herickvvb]

if using plugins in it, yes

 

[Blayer98]

DO NOT RUN IT IN FULLSCREEN!
Use Windowed Mode to prevent that. the "-w" command needs to go where the Target Path is for the shortcut via Right Click > Properties.

 

[ultra_herickvvb]

I did not understand that,how do you remove the fullscreen
