Hello!

Introduction:
Today i will be telling you guys about my newest project. It's a Application like the FlyFF Patcher and it will be updating you latest files and news from your news page and updater page. I will be releasing the source to the patcher and it will be done soon. I might change the design few times but who knows. If you want to help me creating this Application feel free to contact me on tunez@live.se

Features:
The features in this application is going to be following.

• Start the game - Starts the game in sunkist mode.
  
• Register button - Redirects you to your webpage.
  
• Options button - All features that the original patcher have and adding 3 more.
• Close function - nothing special.

Release date:
Like i said i will be releasing the files soon enough, when it's done it will be updated in this thread.

Linked the Options button in the main to the Detail box and configured the image and added a new one. Options is done so is the close function and minimaze works also.

What language are you building this in?

Sadly i will build this application in vb.net =/
im trying to learn C#

lol nice. I never much cared for VB .net. It'll be interesting too see the differences between this and a C# version if you release the source XD.

Have fun with your project!

Thanks :]

good luck lux =)

Thank you blackbox :]

Good luck ! ^^

Seems cool, i'd like to work on this too. I'm studyin C# too at the moment, so if you're interested please let me know.

LinQ.

Will do.

Offtopic: I lol'd at the avatar being the same as Deadly's.

Ontopic: Looking forward to this. There has been some projects like this in Development section. Though, the only one that I remember is Deadly's generic patcher. Something like that.

Hehe :]

Didn't know that.

make it so you're able to change (a simple text field on the options should do it) the string that is used along with neuz.exe (sunkist/fameguy/obamaisafaggot) etc.

if i knew c# i could help but im noob and only know how to fuck shit up badly enough to the point that stuff works.. lol

lol he said he's coding it in Visual Basic .NET. I mentioned coding in C# XD

I forgot to mention this earlier, if you're coding the GUI for the patcher in XAML and need some help let me know. XAML works on C# and VB, so I can help you out with the interface.

good luck.

what is the code for the autostart for the patcher that no need to click the game start in client??

it depends on the language you're coding in. Google "how to start programs" for the given language and you should find what you're looking for.

If you meant how to run the neuz.exe without running the patcher, it's still the same concept. The code just wouldn't be inside of a button

C++
#include windows.h

system("START Neuz.exe sunkist");
Beep(1000,100); <--- epic sound

You would see a command line :/ showing up and closing tough
