Closed MMO: SoS or Xen Online

[Zidane]

This mmo like RO and it's already closed.

Wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secret_of_the_Solstice

 

A few years ago, I remembered playing this game in 2008, but it was already closed.

For fun, I decided to try to "run" this game. So, I found the game client and do some work for investigate game packets for login. Result on the attachment.

 

So, If someone want to do server for this game I can investigate all game packets, and do game client data extraction.

All what I already done(some packets description, simple server response emulator, extraction tools) is on this page: https://github.com/Marisa-Chan/Xen-O-Proto

Git repository also has utils for some data extraction, like this: https://imgur.com/a/NC1UDLH

And also I made torrent for found game clients.

P.S. If you are still has newer game client - please give it to me - I will add it to torrent.

Hi Zidane,

this is very interesting. I have played this game also for years and was one of my favs.

I would like to help you with everything I can.
I also have this client: Solstice-01_36_0002.exe

Unfortunately the torrent does not start downloading, so I cant check the requests and responses at the moment to see if I can make a server script.

The version 01_36 does not start.

 

Edit: I found the 01_31 on gamefront.
After I select the character, the game goes all black. Do I miss something?

Edit 2: Xen Online works best I guess. I would like to check solstice reborn. because it was the most completed one.
Im not good with hex and bytes.. sooo this may take a while
You did an awesome job there!

Oh, sorry, it's was qbittorrent bug with trackers order. I fixed it.  Try add some trackers for download this magnet.

If you tryed with "old" version of server emulation scripts - this means they use another encryption keys for this version.

Does serv18123.py running? What output? It's must say something like "Recvd BF ...." after character selected.

I got it running already

 

I will try the solstice reborn later when the download finishes.
I also try to make a small java server from the python code of yours. I have already a database layout prototype.

Character creation would be good to know, what the client needs/send..

Added packets description for login server (1818 port). 

Next will be character server.

I think the 18124 server is for the contacts. When I'm not starting it, there appears the message "Reconnecting".
