[Development] MUnique OpenMU C# open source server project - MIT License

[nevS]

Hey guys,
I finally decided to push my project to GitHub. You can find it here:

This project aims to create an easy to use, extendable and customizable server in the mu version of Season 6 Episode 3 using the ENG (english) protocol. However, parts of the software can also be suitable for the development of other games, even for other kind of games.

The code is a complete rewrite from scratch - it's not based on any pre-existing projects, and it's also explicitly not based on the well-known decompiled server source of "Deathway" or one of its countless derivates.

About the current state:
It's not complete, and probably there are many bugs left. I didn't connect a real game client to it since years, until a few days ago - and then not again. So I don't recommend to try it out at the moment, if you're not a developer. However, I will try to fix them as soon as I have more time.
You can find the implemented game features here:

Apart of that, this server has some unique features, which I have never seen somewhere else at a MU Server:

• Web user interface
• Live map over web interface
• Completely customizable character attributes (damage etc.); not just configurable multipliers of some formulas - you can change the whole calculation graph of any character attribute. And for example, you could add new attributes like strength, agility, etc. just by adding some configuration data.
• All-in-One server executable: It's possible to start the whole server system (multiple game servers + cs etc.) in just one process. However there is no limitation to scale out - just some missing code
• Possible support of multiple client versions working on the same game server (in Progress)
• A working chat server :laugh:

As a result of my chat server research, I will release a ChatServer.exe replacement for existing mu servers soon -

should be already finished

My next steps will adding GitHub issues to all the open points (known bugs) and missing features. So please, at the moment don't add such issues yourself.

PS: This project is in development since several years, so please don't write posts like "Is this project dead?" when there are no news for some weeks

I dont like too much C# but i like your work and documentation, good luck!

 

[ADMTec]

Could anyone please provide the already compiled project to test ?? I am not a programmer so I do not know how to compile, but I would like to contribute by doing tests

if anyone can make the chatserver available for this project already compiled I would appreciate it.

If you want to test the ChatServer, it's released here: http://forum.ragezone.com/f197/munique-openmu-chatserver-1141496/

I'll try to create a nice easy-to-use Startup package for the actual game server It'll just take a few days more.

How do I find out the Xor32Key for my muserver?

How do I find out the Xor32Key for my muserver?

You ave readme.md file !

 

[nevS]

It's however not described how to retrieve this key... easiest would be if you would have server sources.

There is another easy trick (lol@webzen for this great protection): If you can capture packets (e.g. by wireshark), you can send a long chat message. The client will send this message encrypted by the XOR 32 byte key. The same message is sent back to you without encryption. Based on that, you can calculate the key.

private byte[] FindKey(byte[] decrypted, byte[] encrypted)
{
	byte[] xorkey = new byte[32];
	
	for (int i = 3; i < decrypted.Length; i++)
	{
		byte temp = (byte)(encrypted[i] ^ decrypted[i] ^ encrypted[i - 1]);
		if (xorkey[i % 32] != 0) //we do a comparison to verify the key
		{
			if (xorkey[i % 32] != temp)
			{
				MessageBox.Show("not valid method.");
				break;
			}

		}

		xorkey[i % 32] = temp;

	}

	return xorkey;
}

You can try it out here, you just have to insert the encrypted/decrypted packets accordingly:

I hope this helped!

Got the chat and the friend system working

 

[Sam3000]

Nice project! GL with that! I will try to play with it.

 

[nevS]

Added another sub project, a network analyzer based on OpenMU.Network :w00t:

The release thread is awaiting approval.

 

[Razzor]

Can u provide some information how to run /configure this, i think 99% ppl is not familiar with that new db(InMemory not work) and output folder look like disaster

 

[nevS]

Do you know this guide?

If something is unclear, please tell me what
I could make a detailed video tutorial, but this would probably take weeks until I have enough time. Installing postgres and modifying the connection string should not be too difficult, IMHO

Where do I find the client??

You need an english client with Version 1.04d - just like almost all of the released S6E3 Server Releases.

Added/tested group chat

I'm still working on a first playable release - maybe also a demo which doesn't require to install a database. However, that takes more time than I thought :scared:

 

[ADMTec]

this function would only be for your muserver or will work on anyone

[nevS]

The ChatServer which I released supports this feature already... so yes, it works for both.

..............................

A small status update: Currently I'm refactoring the whole persistence interface to make it simpler to work with. I also implemented an in-memory persistence (no database required) and trying to get a first useable (demo) version out.

..............................

Thanks @fos83 for some contributions about map and gate data initialization :w00t:.

..............................

I still got a lot of work to do until I can release a first demo, e.g. testing the skill system in-game and fixing bugs. This takes longer than planned, however I can only spend about half an hour per day on this project :$:

..............................

Finished another milestone: Migrated the project to .net core/standard 2, so it works now on Windows, Linux and Mac OS

My next target is getting some game features to work, e.g. buff skills, combo skill(s) and the master skill tree.

 

[Thalys Marcio]

wow, good work bro, and good luck with your project.

 

[nevS]

Thanks, I'm still working hard at it when my time allows it


...........................................


A small update of the last weeks:
Some buffs are working now and got the master skill tree sorted. Learning master skills works correctly now. However, not all skills have an effect yet. A lot of work ahead ;-)

As I hit a point where I would need a lot of special logic for some skills, I’m currently working on a plugin system to make extensions easier to add. I think this opens up a lot of new possibilities, also for custom plugins. I’ll move some of the “default” game logic into plugins, too. This way they could be configured to be deactivated if required. For example, if someone is not happy how experience is calculated/distributed one could deactivate the default plugin and write its own to replace it.
In other use cases, someone may deactivate features to dumb a server down to a lower season.
I think it would take too much time to describe all my ideas and other people tend to come up with even with more ideas xD
