Termy's Server APP (SAPP)

[justin108]

Didn't Omega release a modified BMP's exe that undid the no-cd key check?

Edit: Found this:

0x530236 = allows users with the same key to play simultaneously.

ASM:

Patched: CMP EBP,EBP
Original: CMP EDI,EBP


0x52F9D7 = kicks users that have an invalid key, reported by the master server.

Patched: NOP x5
Original: SUB EDI,005AF868

Double Edit: http://home.scarlet.be/mathy/goemita...oceded_fix.exe

Ill give that one a go Chris.

OK I updated that for you guys, I haven't tested it but unless he also put the version check back, this fix should work.

it is using the 1.08 strings so make sure you replace yours with the ones I included.

Thanks.

[justin108]

Thanks.

No Problem, but if it is working let me know, I will install haloce again later and test it. I am sure no one wants to bother with this until it is verified functional.

Sapp gives you a warning that it's not supported for the version but it seems to work.

Edit: Client is older then the server. Joined with 1.09, and the dedi showed up on the list. So, I don't know what's wrong. Maybe it's sapp overriding the version number?

[justin108]

No it isn't in SAPP.dll. It was changed to match 1.09. The only file you have that is different than my functioning server is the haloceded.exe. Even though it has fooled gameservers into seeing it as a 1.09 server, when it checks the client version it is checking for 1.08. The version I have does not check the users version of halo on join. This enables you to run a 1.08 server executable and have it appear as 1.09 while using 1.08 strings. Also meaning it should be much easier to get OS, rec0,etc., etc. to work again. As far as I know doing it this way fixes all the shit that 1.09 broke while allowing everyone to play.

Tried again with sapp not on by default and client was newer then the server. It could be from me not changing my strings to the 1.08 ones. That may be the problem.

try the strings, if it isnt that, then itll be that brandini had version checking off in his exe.

[chrisk123999]

Just tried again, with the old strings, client is older. It's not sapp doing it, it's the exe. Look around in the Hex editor and see if it has the version number in it. I don't get why it's not working.

Yeah man, I dont know, it is working fine on my server. 209.246.170.33:2302 if you want to check for yourself. Only difference in the two is I know for sure Brandini patched his to remove the version check of people joining. that is why I decided to go with his exe to begin with. Once I add the nocdkey check back ill give you that exe.
