[newserv] [Feature Request] A tool/command to patch your own PSOBB.exe

Open nolrinale opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

This one I will totally leave to your creativity as I absolutely have no idea if its possible but it would be something similar to the commands to decompress/compress quests where you pass flags and parameters and it spits out a completed output file but in this case to output a complete PsoBB.exe ready to use in your newser.

Usage could be something like this:

/newserv createbbexe input.exe output.exe -host 127.0.0.1 -port 10000 -nogg -eng -noime -pat -unpacked

Options -nogg: Disables the Gameguard -eng: Switch client language from Japanese to English -noime: Allows typing without installing IME -pat: Output the exe as a .pat file ready to be distributed via patch server -unpacked: Output the client in a unpacked way so the final user can modify it further via Hex Editor

Since there are many clients out there, the tool would only support the original 1.25.11 and 1.25.13 which will then be provided by the final user by downloading the backup client from the archives so will be always available.

That way you can easily set your own BB server using only newserv for the whole thing

This is my final request for the BB side of newserv, it was a pleasure to work and debug stuff for all of you!
