Before we can mess around with trying to make a proxy/middle man hack we need to modify the D9 client to connect to a loopback address. I have modified mine, but the game client overrides or ignores it. It would be helpful if anyone has older NINEDRAGONS.EXE from previous patch versions on D9, or from other servers that will actually run without erroring out with the D9 files. If you don't know quite what I am talking about, open NINEDRAGONS.EXE with your hex editor and go to offset 0x004d933c. This method works for most other versions of 9D, but on D9 it isn't. Any thoughts?
Tip: to bypass the launcher create a shortcut to NINEDRAGONS.EXE and edit the properties to add -U2TRZQ930QR3NC0Q9U03NDZ3XU on the end.
