NFS World - Offline Server

Berkay2578 any news of 1.9? It's working fine?

[berkay2578]

I'm porting it to C#4.0 to make it run more stable on Windows as most of the users are using Windows. It's going to take a while.

[fabx24]

oh ok thank you for this information

What for suggesting a lan meet? Headstart vs headstart no early pups unless both are set up the same way. 10 plus laps to see who is the fastest and no ramming. How does one change how many laps are done in a race? Computers get fresh install and no hacks it would be great imo.

Thank you so much for making it able for me to play this game again !

I made a little time attack video if you guy would be interested in seeing it

So I tired doing this and surprising I did every step correctly the 2nd time (yes the first time I forgot to install the python on disk option) so anyways I start up the nfs server then it connects then I proceed to start nfs world andd....nothing, my screen doesn't turn black, no glitches, it just stays there like I never "clicked" nfs world. ok the only thing that actually does happen is that the mouse spins like its loading then goes back normally, and no I'm not impatient I've left my computer run for 2 hours waiting for nfsw to open.someone please help me.

Did you try again to do samething after restart?

Whether it is possible to play somehow with friends? What options are to drive with friends in nfs world?
All played it together long ago, decided to play again, and any more not to play it ((

Wait for online-servers. It's very hard to do a own servers

But after all somehow others play, others play together, on youtube video is full, in Google too found information, but nobody speaks as to play even simply to give connection to the server

Hmm how would you use Ninja Ripper or 3D Ripper DX with this?

It needs to inject a DLL into the game while launching it, but I also need to launch the game from the server exe.

Use something like Extreme Injector from Unknown Cheats to do it.

So I've sit down and done some progress on the server. Personas are now in a database(.db) file, however, carslots will still be open to edit via .xml. (or I might add a carslots editor inside the application and merge it into the database, still not sure about many, many stuff.)

It's the client (aka nfsw.exe) that needs the hook, just treat the dll hook like how you treat any dll hook.

Replace the client updater with the server launcher, and it should in theory work.

For me 1.7 it worked, 1.8 I need to reinstall Java and Python, cause updating broke something...though normal programming works perfectly fine. (aka too lazy XD)

Also, for the wheel offsets, you will have to either calculate it (Math $TW), or retrieve it from the game files.

Btw, does anyone know which geometry object/variable name or name hash the pizza sign from the Mr Bee's Pizza rental is stored in?

I thought I'd pull it directly from the game files, but haven't gotten far.

(And is anyone good with PS2 formats? I found out HP2 .tpk archives are stored with a TIM2 type format.)

addon1: Hmm... I haven't tried using the server launcher with 3D Ripper DX before...
Try 3D Ripper to the server launcher exe. The memory hook probably would fork into the new process too.

addon2: Berkay, maybe add a line in the updated readme to tell tell people to try Mono if they're on Linux. (Dunno, just a thought, I haven't tried Mono yet)

Wow, that looks nice, although it's just a draft, but an idea where it could lead to...

I'm looking forawrd and also I'm really speechless that we have so much good programmers at this forum and also are willingly improving the server with nice details. Keep it up.
