[TUT] Change the udp port of the Locator, Also client sided

[Rotana]

The reason for posting this:

Hello guys, is long time since my last post, anyway, i came back to Gunz server after a long time, i discovered i have a problem not with the server or client, cause in LAN i can play with no problem, me and my friends, the problem is : The Locator Port is filtered by many ISP cause is used by a worm to propagate.
here is the link to one page showing that: https://forums.speedguide.net/port.php?port=8900;

I was talking with te ISP and they dont want to quit the filter because is a security risk, so i am forced to change the port of Locator from 8900 to other port. If any one can give me a hint regarding this problem is welcome. Thank you all for your efforts and for the work done here on the Ragezone.

You need:

1. OllyDebug
2. The Locator.ini And Gunz Client
3. An half of your brain

You can change the port of the locator in the locator.ini

[NETWORK]
IP="192.168.1.4"
PORT="6050"

see I setted mine to port 6050

now comes the hard part. Open theduel.exe in ollydbg
go to the first line, home button
and search for the command , CTRL + S , push 22c4

you will find one, change that one to push 17a2.

Now you client will connect to port 6050 on UDP for the Locator.

I tried this and I logged in to my server went to shop, clicked on one of the items and Gunz crashed?

then it is for something else since Locator has nothing to do with the shop, it serves as the login server.

I haven't done anything to the my server except for that edit. It worked just fine when I put it back to normal.
