I've tweaked the view code a bit and the position of the view is now pixel perfect.

Nice job! Just got back into maplestory after the initial Odin surge and this looks really promising. Quick question: how will you be handling skills?

On an off topic point does anyone know a good resource for learning networking theory as well as the boost asio library? The example and tutorials on the website seem to explain things really poorly (at least for me).

...I am just wondering this, is it possible for NoLifeStory to possibly go beyond what the current max resolution of MapleStory is?

Of course it is possible for NLS to use any resolution you want, but keep in mind that MapleStory maps were only designed for a specific set of resolutions. Whenever Nexon adds a new resolution they have to test all the maps to find issues, mainly a lot of background moving and fixing so you don't see the edges at high resolutions.

Quick question: how will you be handling skills?

I have no idea. I'll find out when I get to it.

How and where I use the -client flag?

NoLifeWzToNx is the program that converts the WZ format to NX. You should it use it there. Peter forgot to mention, but he changed the CLI of NoLifeWzToNx, so you have to use ". --client" to make it run properly (the dot is the current directory, and --client is the client argument).

Sorry for being too much noob but... after I type this, what button should i press? Enter? Enter just close the application.

I already know C#, and I'm not going to use it for NLS because it is an inefficient managed language that doesn't let me do the things I want.
As it stands NoLifeStory's memory usage is trivial because of how I'm able to implement my NX library.
In most languages, there simply isn't the low level control to do the sorts of memory mapping black magic I do in my NX libraries in C++ and Rust.
If anything, I may move NLS over to Rust, since it is a fancy high level language with more safety than C#, but still providing the low level features I need.
But any sort of .NET or JVM language? Definitely not.
