About the Project

Everything was built using Codex, Claude and Meshy in approximately two weeks.

This is an unfinished browser-based reconstruction of Silkroad. It includes the browser client, server code, database, tools and the assets required to run it locally.

It is not complete. Finishing the remaining systems and properly polishing everything would probably take another couple of weeks and a large number of additional tokens. However, a significant part of the game is already working.

The graphics have also been optimized to make the game playable on a phone, although the custom mobile interface is still unfinished.

What Is Working

Core and Local Server

• The game runs locally and is played directly in a browser.
• The download contains the browser client, server code, PostgreSQL migrations and the required game assets.
• The complete local stack can be started with npm start.
• The launcher starts PostgreSQL, applies the migrations and launches the browser client and game services.
• Account registration is available from the login screen.
• Login, character roster and character creation are working.
• Characters can enter the world and reconnect.
• Character state and progression are persisted in PostgreSQL.
• The server remains authoritative over movement, combat, inventory and persistent actions.

World and Movement

• Regional world streaming is implemented.
• Terrain, water and world objects are loaded in the browser.
• Regional navigation and collision data are used by both the client and server.

• The repository contains tools for rebuilding and checking the converted assets.

What Is Not Finished

This project should be treated as a playable but unfinished development build. Working systems do not mean that every original Silkroad behaviour, visual detail or edge case has been reproduced.

• The project does not have 100% gameplay or visual fidelity with the original client.
• The custom mobile interface is unfinished.
• The complete physical-device mobile test matrix has not been completed.
• Several original interface families are still missing; 131 extracted layouts do not yet have a runtime consumer.
• Fortress Siege does not have a complete playable runtime.
• The Academy and mentor systems are not complete.
• Linked Storage is not implemented because its exact protocol and lifecycle are still unresolved.
• The Collection Book and OptionalTeleport consumer are not complete.
• The original rebuy price and capacity rules remain unresolved.
• Some rare equipment and item classes still have unresolved source formats.
• Some Jupiter dungeon actions and triggers do not have an executor.
• The complete GOD and Qin Shi dungeon loops have not been verified from beginning to end.
• Some instance reservation state is not persisted.
• The custom eastern route is not fully connected to the original continent by a walkable path.
• Baghdad does not yet include every NPC, shop, quest and spawn from its external source data.
• Some skill presentation details and effect links are incomplete.
• Some cloth, LOD, effect and audio edge cases remain unfinished.
• The exact use of some strong attack sounds and some European weapon labels remains unresolved.
• Some altered pet states and party interactions involving COS are incomplete.
• The complete 2v2 Arena flow with five browser sessions, simultaneous matches and reconnection has not been fully verified.
• The complete multiplayer caravan-event flow, leadership handoff and restart behaviour have not been fully verified.
• Some weather presentation details are still approximate or not visually verified.
• The Open Market implementation is not active under every asset profile.
• Several seasonal or historical event variants remain blocked when the original source data is incomplete.
• Production-scale soak, failover and long-running stability tests are not complete.

Perfect World and 9Dragons

There are unfinished implementations and conversion tools for Perfect World and 9Dragons.

The Perfect World work includes experimental terrain, scenes, water, collision, characters, equipment, effects and race-related conversion tools. It is not a complete playable Perfect World implementation.

The 9Dragons work includes conversion and laboratory support for terrain, mobs, NPCs, props, animations, skills and effects. It is not integrated as a complete playable game. Navigation, collision, water, audio and complete gameplay authority are still unfinished or unverified.

These external assets are not included in the download, because uploading the complete collection would bring the total size to approximately 28 GB.

Why I Made It

I started this because I thought it would be funny — and it was.

The real purpose was to test how far AI agents could go when interacting and working with other agents: investigating systems, writing code, testing their own work and coordinating with each other.

What started as a funny side project ended up becoming much more relevant than I expected.

Several browser ports are being released now. I feel that mine is much further along in terms of functionality that actually works, but it is probably only a matter of time before we have a large number of websites running custom servers with zero players on each one.

We live in an era where everything has become too easy. Development no longer has the same value it once had, because almost nothing truly requires skill anymore. Something that would have taken months only a few years ago can now be built in five minutes.

I honestly believe that obtaining an almost complete source-code reconstruction of the original binaries would only take another couple of weeks. At this point, you just need to know how to set up the agents.


No Live Demo anymore, sorry

Hello, jhonlabel

Tried visiting your website but its offline atm, looking forward to seeing what you've done and where the project goes in the future.

 

[jhonlabel]

Sorry, had to turn off the server, but updated post with source code and everything ready to setup on local

No worries, I'll check out your project in the coming days. Appreciate the Silkroad releases, still one of my favorite games of all time.

Hello! I'm really interested in this project, but unfortunately, the files.fm link is currently dead (it says the files are deleted or expired). Would it be possible for someone to re-upload the silkroad-web-assets-76b0a837.tar.zst file to Google Drive or Mega? I'd really appreciate it! @
