[Rift] First Emulator

[theonn]

aw thats too bad. there is a ton of important information over there that is going to be helpful for the datapack.

[yamashi12]

Test server is up !
Use the following address in graben launcher : graben.servegame.com:6900
PS: Don't tell me if it's down, I will probably be working on it and need to shut it down !
If on the other hand it works and suddently it doesn't work anymore after you did something, tell me, it might mean that there is a bug somewhere !

Note: You will not be able to create a character ! Clicking on create will just get you stuck and nothing will be saved, I still have to figure out a few things before I can enable it.
You will see my character and you won't be able to do anything to him. Playing won't do much atm, you will just be redirected to GrabenWorld which is not ready to handle gameplay request so you will just get stuck to 99%.

PS2:
Two people tried to create characters :
- Kitty, female, guardian, high elf.
- Pewah, male, mathosian, guardian.

oh, interesting. so. can we do once we get inside? or how far can we get in.

this seems interesting to say the least.

[yamashi12]

You cannot get inside that is the problem.
I have a bad news :
- I am unable to find how the encryption/compression works so I will have to wait for the next beta to use a debugger and maybe find the encryption/compression algorithms used...
Meaning no in game until next beta (24 january).
I will still try to figure out something but I doubt that I will succeed, it's really weird.

[GinjiBan]

Thanks you for the amazing work.
What about the client upload ?
We cant download it if we don't have a beta account. and it doesn't work by torrent.

[yamashi12]

Someone asked me if they could upload it, so I made a ftp account 2 days ago but still nothing...
If someone wishes to send the game send me a PM I will give you an FTP account so that you can send it !

[thomas_hemme8188]

i suppose i could upload mine.

come on... it is not that hard to figure out.
if you understood the .pak files, you should also be able to understand the data sent from the game server. after 3 bytes a zlib compressed stream starts and it has no ending !
this is a bit unusual for an mmorpg server (at least I have not seen that before... and believe me I have analysed many of them)

[yamashi12]

Is it a stream ? Is that why the TCP window doesn't change ?
I was looking for an RSA or AES of some sort...
I will try your solution ! If you are right, send me your adress I will come and give you a kiss
What about the 3 first bytes ? CRC + ?

[yamashi12]

I tried to inflate raw packets but yeah, there was nothing I could do, it does not work and always fails on : Z_DATA_ERROR "incorrect header check"...
And I don't think it's a gzip because it would be bigger...
Edit: ZOMG I am soooo retarded... I didn't inflate the packets in order so yeah... It works ! Thank you very much for your help !
The 00 00 FF FF at the end were a sign that it was a zlib algorithm but i never thought they would stream deflated data !

[v00zer]

Good work, I wish I could help you.

[Xel]

FileBeam seems to be down as for now, perhaps you could pick a few more options for downloading?
Also, nice job!

[Stejin]

nice projekt

What programming language you are using?

[thomas_hemme8188]

well the beta is going on but i guess no meeting up and testing is necessary...

Write your own sniffer.. It's max 30 min work, save the log from both send and recv and send it
