i cant find how to patch Vista or unlock Zoom

[Sacario]

It seems as the guide here isn't complete o.O I checked on k20 and bjorn posted the complete guide there. With instructions on how to apply vista and unlock zoom.

Hey

I've written this guide because I see that a lot of people are having trouble making an own engine.exe with KOCP, custom password, unlocked zoom, Vista, and getting it packed at the end.

I'm going to describe the full working method on how to apply these functions and the order of them!

What do you need:
- clean unpacked engine - Download Here
- KOCP_Installer.exe (see attachment)
- Kal Server Controller.exe by Palu$ (see attachment)
- yP.exe Packer (see attachment)
- Hex editor (see attachment)

Step 1: applying KOCP
First of all, we are going to apply KOCP on our clean engine to avoid any problems applying it later. Open KOCP_installer.exe and follow the steps. The wizard should take you through it without any problem.

Step 2: Changing the password
In a second step we will change the password. You could also apply the vista patch or the unlocked zoom (optionally) now. It's a matter of personal preference.

Open "Kal Server Controller.exe" and go to the "Engine pass" tab. Click "Open Engine" and select engine.exe.

In the form "New Password" you have to put a new password. The password should have a size of 13 characters (e.g. JKSYEHAB#9052 (standard), MYSECRETPASS1, ...) You can use special characters such as #, §, ), * to make the password extra secure.

When entered, press Change Password. When successful, press Save and save it as engine.exe

Back in your folder you will now have engine.exe and engine.exe.exe. Delete engine.exe and rename engine.exe.exe to engine.exe !

Step 3: Applying the Vista patch (© Jake)
Open a Hex editor (I added mine as attachment) and open engine.exe.
Go to "Search - Replace..."

Replace:
3hU1WB+BkrBbqIbMjPN1/w==
With:
EJyFS2vFgJ0cgP8tuG+DSQ==

See picture:

Then press "Replace all".

After that, go to File - Save.

Step 4: OPTIONAL: unlocking zoom (© Salvation)
This step is optional!! You can skip this step and go to step 5 if you don't want this. It can be good for GMs or for servers that really want this for their players.

Open a Hex editor (I added mine as attachment) and open engine.exe.

Go to "Search - Go To"

Replace the values on the left side to the ones in the picture:
http://swordonline.mine.nu/zoom.png

Step 5: Packing the engine
The last step is to pack your engine so nothing can be changed.

For this I used yP packer. You can find it in the attachment.

1) Open yP.exe and load your engine.exe in "File to Protect"
2) Press Protect

This is a way to make your own engine KOCP & vista compatible and change your password. Making your engine unlimited zoom is also a cool feature.

This works, but if you have problems post them HERE. Do NOT pm me here on this boards as I don't read it anyway.
