These changes get you in game with skittles.

[ieatacid]

I originally tried to get it to decode the incoming opcodes but I couldn't figure out how (or where in the SEQ code) to do it, so now it just turns the opcodes from the xml file into the ones coming through SEQ. There may be a better way than how I did it, and purple might have had different plans, but this works for now.

Purple did an awesome job reverse-engineering the client functions that build the opcode table used for obfuscation. All I had to do to get it working right was comment out one increment line and make the opcode list (retrieved from the client with an IDA script I made, provided below) start at the beginning instead of 12 bytes in.

playerProfileStruct needs work. I can't figure out the AA stuff and that's what's holding me back on progress with that. I *think* AA_Array is 12 bytes now instead of 8, but I'm not sure. As a result of playerProfileStruct being wrong, charProfileStruct may also be wrong.
^^^ fix for this posted below ^^^

I fixed spawnStruct as best I could. The position data at 0743 was a wild guess, but it seems to be working right. The location of EquipStruct is most likely wrong -- I just threw it in where there was an unknown area that it would fit into :o
^^^ fixed on page two ^^^

newZoneStruct was also updated.

Edit 1: For some reason it also displays your level as one which, of course, makes all the skittle con colors wrong unless you are, in fact, level one.

Edit 2: Fix for problem mentioned in edit one posted below.

Anyone that can help with fixing these or other structs, please post your changes.

I just added the .zip extension so I could upload it here:

Awesome, appears to work like a champ! Many thanks to Purple and Ieatacid for the work you both have put in to keep Showeq going!

Just a quick note for those setting this up (I assume Purple and Ieatacid know this already) First zone shows your character loc and heading, second zoning is when the skittles start to show up.

[BlueAdept]

Wow! Thank you. I guess I'll have to try this tonight. My girlfriend isn't going to be happy. :D

[Spaz]

A thousand blessings upon your collective heads.

[uRit1u2CBBA=]

Looks nice so far. I zoned twice as a test, and the maps for GL and GH loaded and had the spawns.

Once we get the PP ironed out, we're back in business.

[ieatacid]

I'll be posting PP in a bit once I compile again and test it out.

[uRit1u2CBBA=]

sweet - question tho - what's inside that 2nd .zip file you posted? I'm unfamiliar with that file.

[ieatacid]

It'll open in any text editor. It's a script for IDA to dump the opcodes from the opcode table in the exe to a file that's used by SEQ (opcodetable.h).

[ieatacid]

This fixes con colors and some other stuff. Most of it should be right, but for some reason my current HPs aren't reported right on the status bar (at the bottom left). Still looking into that.

I raided tonight with these updates -- other than initial game entry not loading maps, as soon as I zoned once, things have been looking good.

Thanks again :)

[ieatacid]

other than initial game entry not loading maps, as soon as I zoned once, things have been looking good.

Yeah, I'm not sure why but it only obfuscates a small portion of the opcodes on the first zone. The second time it does the rest and then everything works.

[ieatacid]

This just fixes inspect output to the console, with the above opcode changes too.

For some reason, when I mouse over a PC, the pop-up sometimes shows their gender as "neuter." Anyone else?

[uRit1u2CBBA=]

sounds like that you have the wrong bit in the structure for gender :) lol Not that it's all that entirely important.

[ieatacid]

Yeah, it's wrong. I'll get it tomorrow.

[ieatacid]

This should be 100% right. It was too hard and time consuming using packet logs so I dug them out of the exe. This should fix genders being displayed correctly, as well as PC (yellow squares) and NPC corpses to show up right, light sources, current HPs, and the equipment struct is in the right spot. Even gm, if it was right back in feb/march '06 -- that's where I compared it to :)

Question:

Do the links in the first post have the changed posted int he thread in them, or do they need to be applied into the downloaded files...

I note that the edit time on the first post is later than the last posted change, so just checking....

[ieatacid]

Yeah, everything after the first post needs to be applied to those files. I was waiting until I got most of the problems ironed out before I updated the first post with a new zip. Tonight or tomorrow I'll try to do so, if I get time.

[uRit1u2CBBA=]

Here's an updated races.h you can use, generated using my script that parses out the dbstr_us.exe file:


rename the file to "races.h" from "races.h.txt", put it into your ../src directory, and re-"make".

Unfortunately there's really no way around this, as the packet that contains the data needed for obfuscation isn't sent until you zone :(

Well, the client should have those opcodes at certain default values then prior to zoning or the game wouldn't work.

So, for those who'd like a small challenge, they could try to figure out what the default opcode values are at initial login :)

I just noticed that I said dbstr_us.exe... :) I of course meant .txt :) damn those file extensions. :)

So, for those who'd like a small challenge, they could try to figure out what the default opcode values are at initial login :)

It's sent (obfuscator packet) when you go from server select to character select, from character select to in game, then every time you zone; so it already obfuscates before you log in. As far as I can tell, it always uses the obfuscated ones as there's really no time when it wouldn't have them.

[ieatacid]

It seems I passed the time limit allowed to edit my first post, so here's a new zip of all the changes so far. I did it on my windows box because I'm waiting on a new power supply to arrive for my Linux box, so if something is not right let me know.


Just remove the .zip extension.

[BlueAdept]

Wow. I just looked at packetstream.cpp. That function that purple did is impressive. Very nice work. I know I wouldn't have been able to figure it out.

Ahh, so then SEQ needs to pick up the Obfuscator packets from earlier to be able to really decode the first zone the character goes into (from character select).

[ieatacid]

Update: I changed they way the obfuscator packet is handled. Rather than hard-coding it in to dispatchPacket in packetstream.cpp, I added an entry for it into zoneopcodes.xml and added its own slot and signal to interface.cpp so it only fires on zone streams and only alters the zone opcode list (as it should -- world opcodes shouldn't be obfuscated, as far as I can tell).

This also fixes the guild list being populated and guild names showing up on the spawn list and map tooltips.


Edit: This means you'll need to overwrite all these files over an old 5.9.1.0 zip or at least use the old packetstream.cpp/.h files.


Updated zip (remove .zip extension)

[ieatacid]

Edited previous changes above ^^

[gogreenalready]

ieatacid -- Would these be the only files that need to be updated?

I updated the files in the directories of my 5.9.1.0 app from the changes.tar.gz file. Restarted and zoned a bit but did not see any results.

Gonna read all of the entire thread....maybe I did miss something.

Also does the app need to be recompiled?

I am familiar with SEQ and have never had an issue doing an update. I have been eagerly awaiting to even get mapping and pops back.

I appreciate the effort everyone....

[ieatacid]

Yes, you need to recompile.

If you've already overwritten the files (using my latest changes, posted here (http://www.showeq.net/forums/showthread.php?p=42364&#post42360) in this thread), all you should need to do is "make", "make install", then "showeq" (assuming you ran ./configure before, back when 5.9.1 was functional).

If that fails to work, your best bet is to get a fresh tarball from the last official release (5.9.1), un-tar that to a folder, download the latest changes.tar.gz and overwrite the old files with the those. Then you'll need to "./configure", "make", "make install".

[gogreenalready]

You guys totally nailed it.....

I can play again............

And not walk into traps...

And ignore my wife.....

Oops.... Overshare.....

Thanks again......:D

[gogreenalready]

Well.... now it's blown again... can't win for losing......

[ieatacid]

This seems to fix it for me. I'm posting the whole changes.tar.gz again, but the only thing that changed was opcodetable.h.

[uRit1u2CBBA=]

Cool! Thanks for the fast turn around. :)

[ieatacid]

Actually it works without even updating opcodetable.h. I didn't think that would break it, as it just looks like they added two new ones -- ones we don't even use.

[Could_Be_Anyone]

Yippeee!!! Skittles!

Just like to say thank you to the folks who got this going again!.

[Cossack]

Just curious, but any reason this isn't setup as a new version, or an update to 5.9.1.0 on the svn server?

[BlueAdept]

ieatacid doesnt have access to upload the files there. Purple does and I might. I haven't done that in a long time. I would have to look up how to do it again and probably wont have any spare time until next week to try to figure it out.

I might be able to put it up as a tar to download though. Let me see if I can find the time and remember how to do that. I did do it for the filters a while ago.

[cann]

woohoooo \o/ very nice work ieatacid and Purple, thank you for your hard work and all the (free) time you spent making it happen.

anyone got a source for TBS SEQ maps ? =)

[Whizzie Wiz]

Speaking of Purple, how is he? Hope he's not too traumatized by the 6 month effort...!


(The EQ maps on Mapfiend should work fine with ShowEQ - I must admit I haven't tried going there with the fixed version yet, I only did a quick build and a couple of zones to glory in the beauty of Skittles so far :P)

[flopz]

Are any of these links a full rollup? Looking to give it a try, but I'm admittedly too impatient and accident-prone to do it with all these patches ;)

[Backspace]

Are any of these links a full rollup? Looking to give it a try, but I'm admittedly too impatient and accident-prone to do it with all these patches ;)Cann did up a nice post with info on how to get it working in Ubuntu:
http://www.showeq.net/forums/showpost.php?p=42390&postcount=8

Can skip to the part about fetching showeq and changes, if you're not using Ubuntu and have all the stuff installed that's needed to compile.

As for maps, I copied my EQ maps to /root/.showeq/maps.

Recommend getting filters by BlueAdept, very useful: filters-5xx-06-20-05.tar.gz (http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/seq/filters-5xx-06-20-05.tar.gz?download)

[dudex]

OMG IT WERX
OMGOMGOMGS.

I've felt so naked these last... what was it, 6? 8? months...

A big round of thanks to a great many people whose helpful replies have shown up in Search the last couple days. :)

[flopz]

Wow, wtf, I could've sworn I replied here. Anyway....

I know how to compile it ;) I've compiled all my SEQ releases from source. However, with all these patches that need to be applied, scattered throughout the thread...I know it'll take me several hours to do it without screwing something up ;)

[ieatacid]

The latest file I posted is all you need. Just get version 5.9.1.0 from March (the last working version), get the file I posted here (http://www.showeq.net/forums/showpost.php?p=42370&postcount=41), overwrite those over the older files, then compile like you normally would.

Someone posted good instructions here (http://www.showeq.net/forums/showpost.php?p=42390&postcount=8) .

[BlueAdept]

I updated ShowEQ with all the changes to the download section of SF. I bumped the version to 6.0.0.0 and gave credit to where credit was due.

I'm getting an assload of "INVALID PACKET" warnings with this patch.

Also, playerProfile and newZoneStruct need to be updated. I'll try Wednesday night if no one does it by then.

I believe if the structs are not the correct size, it will give an Invalid Packet. I could be wrong. They might have added a new struct too. I have not even had a chance to load EQ yet.

I do have some logs from the night before the patch. Tonight I will see what has changed, but I am not very good at it.

[coffeencream]

I am really a newb when it comes to structs and stuff...

But from a layman's terms, it looks like it is not removing the old spawns when entering a new zone and the con colors are all screwy.

[Quark]

Looks like newZoneStruct just increased size to 920 bytes

[Mardark]

MAX_SPELL_SLOTS should now be 10 it looks like. Noticed I had another spell slot when I logged in.

This makes up the 4 of the 32 difference in the struct.

Edit: geesh I r a gud typr

[doox00]

Is there a fix? If so how does it get applied.

thanks all for your hard work.

[ieatacid]

I just added 4 bytes at the end of this struct. I checked everything else (all the named members) and they all line up correctly, so the 4 bytes were added in one of the unknowns toward the end.

I read two slots were added. But incrementing buff slots from 25 to 26 aligned the data structure, so this is what I did. Needs probably looked at further.

With these changes, I am having no problems now. I haven't tested a whole lot, but gets you up and running.

There's 26 buff slots now? I didn't see anything change in the UI about this. Is this right?

[ieatacid]

25 slots have been allocated for quite some time now, but we weren't able to use all of them. They just enabled two more. All areas of the exe that handle buff slots have not changed from 25.

[uRit1u2CBBA=]

I read two slots were added. But incrementing buff slots from 25 to 26 aligned the data structure, so this is what I did. Needs probably looked at further.



2 slots were added via AAs, but 2 slots were previously unused (only 23 of the 25 were usable). So the 2 new ones makes it 25 out of 25 usable.

At least they didn't bork SEQ this time. Expansions were always their favorite time for changing stuff.

When everything gets figured out, Ill bundle it up and put out a new revision.

[uRit1u2CBBA=]

I did all changes above, except for changing the 25 to a 26 - things seems to run as well as they can (just needs 2 or 3 zones to start working instead of one.)

[ieatacid]

Yeah, if you use the playerProfile I posted, don't change MAX_BUFFS to 26. It should be 25 and the playerProfile I posted should be right.

Hey folks -
Great work on getting us back on our feet again. However, I've been getting some random crashes since starting to use showeq again. I'm using the 5.10.0.0 tarball blue put up and have the most recent struct changes acid and various others have posted.

Here's an example of a recent crash:

Say: Special: 'a shadowmane tamer's corpse' - howls for the moon as its essence departs.
Spell: Unknown: 32c6: Foo, 60, Blessing of Oak
Spell: Unknown: 32c6: Aura of the Grove, 10, Aura of the Grove Effect
HP Changed: +55 4237
General: Unknown: 022a: Vebober, 1131
Warning: !!!! EQPacketFragmentSequence::addFragment(): buffer overflow adding in new fragment to buffer with seq 8b57 on stream 3, opcode 0000. Buffer is size 198696 and has been filled up to 198654, but tried to add 505 more!


Any ideas?

Rincewindyep, I just got the same thing.

[rincewind9]

Woops. Thanks for the cluestick application.

[ieatacid]

This is just so that the box under Character->Choose Level goes up to level 80.

Line 1082 in interface.cpp

m_levelSpinBox = new QSpinBox(1, 80, 1, this, "m_levelSpinBox");



Player::fillConTable() in player.cpp might need to be updated, too, to make con colors correct for levels 76-80.

[uRit1u2CBBA=]

I'm still 76, but have not seen any problems with con colours so far. I'll keep an eye on it.

It seems to me that the opcode table doesn't change EVERY time, so that if you log in with 1 character, then log out and log in another, the opcode table IS correctly populated, and everything shows up correctly, even if it's into a different zone. (I haven't tested logging into a different server yet).

This implies that, if we cache the received opcodes, and use those to "pre-seed" the table, we stand a good chance of avoiding the need for the extra zoning.

I haven't looked at the opcode packets area in several years, so I'm not sure how easy or difficult what I am suggesting is....

[BlueAdept]

I agree. Even several days later it still works and from one account to the next. I have not tried from patch to patch though or from server to server.

[ieatacid]

I thought of this too a couple weeks ago, but didn't think of any good ways of doing it. And the table hasn't changed in many months, nor the opcodes, it's the seed that changes in the obfuscator packet.

An easy way to check if we'd need to update a saved database would be to check if obfs->var1 (in EQPacket::obfuscateOpCodeDB) equaled the saved value.

[Could_Be_Anyone]

I recompiled 5.10.0.0 with Mardark's & ieatacid's changes, and it is up and working (so far, it hasn't crashed, anyway), but the mob/npc's are all red cons, regardless of level. Drops & general effect things are the only things that aren't red. This is for any toon, either my 76, or a lowbie 58.

Oh, and btw, I lied.. it did crash after a while. =(

[ieatacid]

You did something wrong if all cons are red.

[Whizzie Wiz]

You did something wrong if all cons are red.

Ah, yes, I did find I needed to tweak the size of the last struct you posted before SEQ would accept the character profile packet as valid:


/*22576*/ uint8_t unknown22576[1008]; // ***Placeholder (18/11/2007)

i.e. 1008 not 1032.

The Ebon and Radiant counts offsets still seem to be off, and I must try and track down the orux and doubloons too - I won't be able to check the Solteris raid currencies though (phosphenes and whatever else). :p

[Could_Be_Anyone]

You did something wrong if all cons are red.Quite possible; I'm no programmer, and don't understand the code.

I just pasted in the sections that were shown as code wholesale, replacing the old sections, & changed the max spell slots. Guess I screwed something up.

Did you change the MAX_BUFFS to 26 from 25? If so, that was done in error and explains the wrong packet size.

I'm using what he posted, with keeping MAX_BUFFS to 25, and things work fine.

Ah, yes - that would do it.
