If there's one thing I seriously hate, than its bragging. Not normal bragging, hey everyone does that. No, bragging about stuff one doesnt know about, yet pretending he does.
You know what? I've been messaging you. You've been acting like a complete dick from the beginning. Telling me "hey you are conceited", I dislike this and I dislike that. And since we are that bad people, you dont want to help us at all since we dont deserve it. Why would we possibly want your help except of saving ourselfs throught the hassle of doing work which someone else already did. Tho, as the convo showed, you did not posses such knowledge, but read on.
But hey, you are missing one critical point. We are real developers, everyone of us has a proper background in different IT topics. Yet we exactly know what we do. However, on your initial post you've been saying so much funny things. You can do great stuff and you have a huge knowledge about rohan. You could say you are the best developer in the scene (which there is no best btw) but you wouldnt do it. You have a map editor, know about how to edit the world, bins, UI, Modells and you can code with c++/c# and reverse stuff.
Fact is, you need attention. You try to get that attention by bragging about stuff you archived (most you probably didnt) claiming you could do this or that and you know about this chicken and that McNugget. The point is, you just claim it, you pretend all this stuff to get attention. You want to tell me im conceited while you act like an utter asshole iterating on how great you are.
You are not. Why? Besides the fact that I directly know when speaking with skilled people, you proved me correct by bragging about lots of funny things I just could facepalm about.
You said you can edit a heightmap. I ask you, where is the problem to write a program sampling the heights by greyscale? However, thats not what you did. So I ask you again, how hard is it to type into google "edit heightmap". Every half decent tool can edit raw heightmaps, thats two clicks. No afford on your site here.
You said you have written a map editor. Yet you didnt know what the .rdf files are for. How could I possibly believe you have a working toolset, in this case a full worldeditor, when at the same time you dont even know what the .rdf files are for. I could iterate on it, asking you what the .lay, .ilc, .atr, .lit and .gtx files represent. You wouldnt know. So if you say you have a world editor, I assume you imported the heightmap and the entities. How could you possibly say you have a fully working 3D editor while at the same time highlighting the easiest part, "and it even can edit the heightmap" *claps*
Yet, I've proven with screenshots that we acctually do have a proper world editor, being able to edit the complete world.
You've been acting jelouse on that one. Asking me how I could possibly post such screenshots in our server thread.
You told me that only actions prove what we can or something along these lines. Our actions so far proven that we are able to edit several stuffs. Im asking you, what did you to prove what you claimed? Nothing.
You told me you have proper structures for the .ui. Thats basically what I was keen on to save myself from the hassle to reverse them myself. I had you to the point where you were up to hook me up. You would have sent me the files if you had them. Fact is, you dont. You rather went to IDA trying to find a proper structure.
Either way, with little effort I managed to completely reverse them in that time.
You are NOT a reverse engineer, otherwise you would acctually know how simple it is to reverse such a file. Yet you call the structure complex and "dynamic". Deal with it, static file structures are uncommon.
You claimed you completely know how hooks works. I ask you, whats so hard in understanding a simple trampolin. Does that show any skills? No it doesnt, it doesnt take much to understand trampolins. Furthermore, you've posted that comment AFTER I used the word "trampolin". Someone's good at looking stuff up I guess.
Now, you claim you can programm c# and c++. With no doubt you can since programming aint hard. But what I seriously doubt is that you can write programms, not even considering huge frameworks all by yourself. Its simple to write a few lines of code. Not so much if you develop huge frameworks. You are trying to place yourself at the level of banana bandit, reqviem or me when it comes to coding. Fact is, there are huge gaps between you and us. You will have to practice very hard at least for another ten years untill you eventually reach the level on which we are playing. We can archive and accomplish everything we want in an efficient and fast manner. However, the knowledge you posses does not suffice to surpass us in any way. It does not suffice to get on our level, not even anywhere close. Now I seriously dont know how fluent your c#/c++ is, but it is impossible to build a knowledge base over a year from zero to where we are. Even if you were a mastermind itll be impossible, which you arent.
You've been trying to tell me how stuff works in the whole convo, stuff I already knew how it was working on which I had to hold back not to correct the shit out of you. You've been iterating on what great things you can do, yet half of what you said was incorrect. I seriously dont know what you wanted to archive with your attitude, maybe just a little bit more attention from a person who acctually know what he does?
Other than most people around, im not just a rohan developer. No kid, im a professional on that topic, doing a living with software engeneering. I've not studied for nothing, yet you try tell me about signature scanning, or more generalized about "how to find structures" in a file? You try to tell me how IDA works, seriously?
You claimed without you, we wouldnt be where we are today. I tell you, bullshit. You've been saying that we all only have the mapserver source just because of you. Im asking you, how hard is it to plug the mapserver and the respective PDB into IDA?
You've seriously wanted to correct me when I said "the mapserver source", telling me it aint the source. Of course its not the source, idiot? How could I, as a c/c++ programmer, not know that it aint the source. You've been trying to correct me when I corrected myself just for you by saying the "dissassembly", yelling at me its not the dissassembly but pseudo code. Oh really, what does the pseudo code represent? Correct, the asm dissassmbly.
Yet you claimed, without you, noone would know about IDA nor ollyDBG or whatever. Now seriously, those tools are not know around the internet. Only you knew about their existence back than. Yea, makes sense. Enterprise software gets developed just for you.
Either way, before you had that gracefull idea, I remind you, HuninHune or DeadlyData never existed and they never unpacked the client nor dissassbled the mapserver, correct? Well, they did.
All this time you've been bragging what you can, claiming you could do great things. Yet you cant. Yet you didnt prove it to me in any aspect or anything you did, nor do you have the knowledge to do so. Yet you didnt prove it to anyone around here.
One thing a true developer never does is pretending to be able to do various sorts of stuff. Yet, you do exactly that. You go around, claiming stuff just because you once touched a programm, a line of code or just a file. I have to dissappoint you, that doesnt make you good in those things, neither does it make you a developer.
All you did and showed so far is, that you are pro at leeching. Best example is Cal3D. You got the half file formats from there, yet I did completely reverse them myself. I ask you, could you reverse them yourself? You couldnt.
I even doubt you can apply the formats to rohan's graphics resources and write a stable importer for it. Stuff is worth nothing if you dont know what its all about. You are good in leeching bits but there aint any effort on your site which could really prove you as a true developer.
So please, dont act as if you'd be a top developer and on our level. You are not. You are far from it. Do yourself the favour and practice hard, you eventually become a bit more skilled on day. And you eventually dont need to seek attention by bragging and claiming stuff anymore. As of now there is just one word left to describe you, wannabe.
Yes im looking down on you. Thats basically how you treat people aswell as far as our convo showed it. Now, with all the stuff I've been writing above, you may notice that you are an open book to me.
