DRLG

DRLG
Overview

Dungeon Random Level Generator. This is a server side process for generating random dungeons. The world SNO files contain DRLG parameters. These parameters define the ruleset for generating a dungeon: how many entrances/exits must be placed, how tiles can attach to other tiles, etc. Although this process happens on the server, it appears the client also contains DRLG-specific code.

SNO

SNO
Overview

Game asset files. Groups of SNO files are organized into folders and stored in MPQ container files. SNO files each have unique integer IDs that allow SNO files to reference each other. The file format is unique to each type of SNO file, although it appears to always be a binary format.

MPQ

MPQ
Overview

MPQ, or MoPaQ, is an archive format developed by Blizzard Entertainment, purposed for storing data files, images, sounds, music and videos for their games. This is a generic container similar to a tarball but with support for patch sets (adding/removing/modifying files by loading a base MPQ file followed by a series of MPQ patch files) and per-file compression.

You can browse MPQs, extract individual SNO files, or add MPQ programmatic access to your own code with the CrystalMPQ library (crystalmpq - Library and set of tools for reading data from MPQ (MoPaQ) files - Google Project Hosting).

GBID

GBID
Overview

Game Balance ID. A 32-bit integer created by hashing a string with the following function:

uint HashLowerCase(string input)
{
    input = input.ToLowerInvariant();
    uint hash = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < input.Length; i++)
        hash = (hash << 5) + hash + input[i];
    return hash;
}


ActorCommonData objects have a GBID field which can be used to resolve in-world items to GameBalance SNO structures, and determine attributes such as item type, quality, etc.

RACTOR

RActor
Overview

An actor in a scene. Appears to be anything from a UI element to a treasure chest to a monster. RActors almost always reference an ActorCommonData structure, although there are a few cases where that is not the case (TODO: what are the rules for when an RActor does not have an associated ACD?).

Ref: Definitions - Diablo 3 Dev

[st0724]

Okay... why are you making redundant posts left and right?

[BitHacker]

st0724,

Do you see this post anywhere else? With the same content? With the same signature? With the same Data? With the same code?

Because This particular post needs to be stickied. I've asked several times what things are and no-one knows the answer. NOW EVERYONE WILL...

STOP FLAMMING ME, AT LEAST I'M TRYING TO MAKE THINGS BETTER. BY ADDING CONTENT AND BEING ACTIVE.

-Bit_Hacker

[st0724]

Uh.. If you have question on something, just ask. No need to pretend you are contributing by posting random stuff easily accessible by everyone. I'm not just talking about this post of yours.

Many people prefer this section to be kept lean, without any bloat information, so it's easy to find things.

[BitHacker]

st0724,

I will say 1 more thing, then I'm done... I have read this WHOLE SUB-FORUM and there is NOT ENOUGH INFORMATION... This forum LACKS information. By adding this as a sticky. It will contribute to the 'EASY TO FIND" methodology you HAVE...

-Bit_Hacker

[ChrisSch]

Its already here:
Diablo 3 Dev

I guess you copied the content of the site here?
Maybe a link to this website would be enough?

[BitHacker]

ChrisSch,

Thanks for your response, nothing but respect for you. Thanks for answering my other questions.

This is why I put a Ref: LINK in the post.

But ya, We all know it should be stickied information.\

So, we what sticky a url? come on lol ...

The whole point is to NOT go to another website.

-Bit_Hacker

[KOS0937]

All you are doing is posting strings you have found in the executable. Everybody can easily find them. You are about 6 month too late for this to be a novelty.

And why should this be stickied? One can do absolutely nothing with these strings.

[Nesox]

Most of your posts just annoys me and contains nothing useful.
Hopefully some moderator cleans it up, posting random strings here and there isn't going to help anyone... Ure just pissing pepole off...

[BitHacker]

Nesox,

Every sub-forum needs a set of definitions sticky'ed. When I first came here an started reading. I had a hell of time finding the definitions in this sub-forum. Now the strings above in this thread. Are from the definition website.

Now the strings I have posted in the other threads are for people like myself who want to use them as a reference. As far as annoying you. Don't read them. That easy.

I myself am here to learn. Now that takes both interaction with the board members and reading on my own. I've gotten plenty of responses that are good. So, thank you for your piece of mind.

Someone that has been here since 2007. Sure is putting across the attitude of being a hot head. Nesox, your not better than anyone else here. Get off your high horse. People like you piss me off. We are all here to learn.

With members like you that don't share and do not like to communicate. Make these forums DEAD.

[pollock974]

Is there any way to have this thread deleted? It comes up on every search i do on this forum and it's redundant.

There are also people asking for offsets and information that are posted a few posts/threads above theirs. It makes me wonder if they even opened the game in a disassembler of any kind. Even one month after the release, Blizzard are still releasing new patches that contain the same information dumpers/debuggers that were included in the first beta version of the game. Some of those functions even create the dump file for you! I would guess the main problem here is that you added absolutely no new content to what is already known. The information you posted here was available a few weeks after the public beta release, and can easily be found by doing a bit of research. The simple fact that the writer of this wiki page didn't yet know the fundamental difference between an RActor that contains an ACD reference and one that doesn't should show how old this is (the solution is in the first bytes of the structure ).

Obviously, if you had posted a thread explaining the way D3's SNO manager works, how to retrieve the Scenes in memory or how to use the Nav meshes they provide with the game data, your thread would probably not have received any hate since this kind of information is exactly what most people who browse these forums are looking for.

This section receives both advanced and beginner users, however it expects anyone who's willing to post to post relevant, interesting information or questions and it expects people who are reading it not to be expecting giveaways. This is mainly why a lot of advanced users won't just give you a complete list of offsets with the code to use it and also won't post information that could almost be qualified as theory-crafting, retrieved from a wiki post made a few months ago, especially when most people who were interested in the game passed by this wiki before (yup. We can do google searches and use IRC too).
