Guys... how is he supposed to know what C3V3 stands for in order to look it up? To answer your question, it's from this source [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]. Unfortunately, the link no longer works... so here's a [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] to the source code from a mirror I've been maintaining. You can also find an open-source launcher [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] if you're just interested in the connection part (is a bit clearer for that). It doesn't have the password cipher hook though. What are you looking to do with the source code / what's your goal?

Spirited, this is why. He doesn't want to learn or research, he just wants the answer thrown in his face, then it becomes PM messages, then it becomes discord spam.Quote:

and,I am try use dll and outenserver.XML to play co2,server.dat is very hard to work
Sounds like you're just trying to find a download for it then, and not necessarily the source code like you asked? I'm sure that exists somewhere, I just don't have a link to it. Maybe someone can upload a compiled version for you and we can add that to the client mirror.Quote:

And what's wrong with that? People don't come to this community to program. They come to play a game or host a private server so they can play a game. And it's fun hosting a private server. Maybe if you help him, he'll actually learn something. Again, how is he supposed to research anything here if he doesn't know what to research. Info about starting a server is all over the place in these forums.Quote:

Hence, this guy PM'd me before. I tried to help and now i am getting

lmao
why should i help someone who after attempting to help them via pms i get a response like that. i don't understand your logic Spirited.Quote:

Like your logic is seriously fucked, why create a thread saying looking for csv3hook if you don't know what it is? Why would you search for it lol. A more decent thread would be asking if anyone has a way to connect to the self hosted server. Obviously the guy knows what he is looking for just doesn't want to put the effort into actually make it work. like seriously bro, read what people say.
Then show him how to help himself. Show him how to download the OpenConquerHook project that copies the hook via GitHub releases, or show him how to download from the original trunk using SVN that still shows up on Google. Honestly guys, none of my friends would be able to figure that out easily unless I showed them after 15 minutes. I can't imagine how much more difficult it is for non-English native speakers. It wouldn't kill you guys to be a bit more sympathetic. I also think it's important to consolidate information and start organizing better "getting started" threads (which I'm actively working on).Quote:
The answer to this thread has been marked as spam. If he can't figure out how to google for the csv3hook, how would he even host a private server? If you want people to come to your forums instead of epvp for 'the great traffic' then why don't you release "new" things here and put a backlink to your website? Trying to be a white knight for these idiots is wasted time.
A 'let me google that for you' link pretty much explains how to do anything conquer related right? Besides finding anything that can be found on these forums, he will find your open-source projects and other useful links. That's how I did it as non-native english speaker.Quote:

I couldn't care less about appreciation. If a single person tells me they got into programming because of one of my projects, or a single person tells me they benefited from one of my projects, then that project succeeded. It helped me out, helped my resume out, and helped someone else out. I'm not in it for glory or recognition, and if you're in it for that... then I think you're in it for the wrong reasons.Quote:

How much actual appreciation have you received for the work you share? (Besides a 'thx' or 'how to install?', which is commonly asked). And how much appreciation have you received for organising and consolidating information? There is only a small group of people who know how much this information is worth to them, the others are leechers that start a new private server every other week with a copy-pasted source full of bugs.
Many non-english native speakers have PMed me over the last year, asking if I could make them a private server. Why? Because they could make money over it. Most of them already had a plan on how to exit-scam that same server. That's their mindset, create a server -> get donations -> kill the server and reboot. Is this something you like to support? If I see someone genuinly showing interest in creating a private server to recreate that nostalgia feeling we all had 10 years ago I would be happy to help. If I see someone trying to create a proxy or crack COs anti-cheat because they are doing this for fun; I happily help. Seeing people reselling the same cheat-engine script for higher and higher prices, eventually exit-scamming because they can only make it undetected up to a certain level makes me sad. I remember the days where we were sharing information with each other on this forum to share knowledge and this is what I would be supporting. I'm not supporting money-grabs and exit-scams, because that's all what most of this CO private-server and programming section is about.
If you want to discus this further, let's not do that in this thread and move to PM. Your motivation should be motivating others, not angering them.
Sorry for reliving the topic, I found it in one of my search.Quote:

And those money grabs and demands for cheats will exist in every private server and gaming community. You don't have to participate in looking for or providing hacks if you don't want to. I don't. And look at other modding / private server communities. Most are a lot better off than we are. They're so much more supportive and encouraging.
The toxicity in this section is not normal, even on epvp. What the section really needs is better moderation and friendlier tutorials on how to get started in different subjects. Yeah, some bad actors will benefit from that - but a lot of not so bad people will benefit as well. Like, if you want private servers to be more secure, then contribute that security. That's what open source is all about. You can't expect every person who comes in wanting to start a server for themselves to be cybersecurity experts or know about salted hashes.
