Holic and/or Cloud Nine

I already understand some parts of the quest.orz file (which isn't compressed with zlib, by the way) but I think it's not the highest priority thing.

I've figured out most(I think) of the main packet structure and it seems to be unencrypted. I have to figure out the first packets still but I can't work on it just now because my computer commited a suicide and I'll need to get the files out of the hard drive.

Oh, that sucks that your computer died. I will mourn for it because I know the pain.

On the note of the compression: If the quest.orz file isn't compressed with zlib, then it's most likely that they may have just used it on things like the icons and music, which sucks because I want the music. Both games have a great soundtrack and I'd like some on my MP3 player. However, I will go into study of Private Server making sometime because I want to be like you someday who just looks at a file and can tell someone how to play in test mode without spending an hour looking into it (or at least it seemed that way.)

The test mode was a lucky find because I wasn't looking for it or anything related at all. :D

Quest.orz is pretty easy at some parts because the quest IDs seem to be there in plain text and it gives some kind of overview on how stuff is stored there. Before the strings are their length in bytes as 4 byte integer and some other stuff is easy to figure out by structuring it all down on notepad and you see the pattern.



Trying to find out the first packets is a big pain in the ass. I feel like I've searched through the exe but I can't seem to figure out what the client actually expects.

They merged the servers today with Columbia. It fails. Now there is a reason for a private server.

Henry, did you ever try to figure out the Cloud Nine packets and see if they worked the same way with Holic? If anything, if you can develop anything for Cloud Nine? Perhaps that test thing again?

i once created somekind of launcher for a game called "holic" as i did that i found out about the parameters to use to fire the client up

"/holic.netgame.com 0 0 YYYYYYYYYY XXXXXXXXXXXXXX 1000 1"

i belive this was it :3

y= id
x = pw

The game usually got launched through a website.
by using those parameters u were able to bypass that and start it directly.

i jsut never figured out the pw encryption, or maybe it was just a session key after loggin in the website, i have no idea.



this was the old thread i created back then.

maybe it can help somewhat out.

good luck :3 !!
 
I happen to have a fully-patched US Holic client from the maintenance shortly after they announced the closure. This would be the final client version released for the game internationally. I'll upload it sometime in the next day or two and post a link here. Not terribly surprisingly, the modification code posted on Page 3 doesn't work with the updated client because the addresses have been switched around. If Henry is still around, or someone with enough knowledge in the code used to program the client, it'd be awesome if they could take a look at the patched client and see if the same thing can be done with that.

EDIT: is the link for the fully patched Holic Client.

Still anyone interested in this ....
Holic Japanese version.
 
Hi EveryBody, someone knows any kind of server which is launching any version of Holic/CloudNine in any kind of country ?
I just want to play again
Also if anyone knows any possibility to buy the game I have money to negotiate

Still anyone interested in this ....
Holic Japanese version.
I am, but did not work this link
 

I think you can play here, but it is only for Korea because it requires identity information or a Korean phone number. I know there are Latin players who have managed to play but they had to do several things. Lunatia (the Japanese version) closed its server. Sorry my bad english.
 
hola, llevo mas de un año trabajando en crear un servidor, y fuera del poco o mucho exito que alla tenido he tenido bastantes progresos en esta mision. Si aun hay alguien interesado que se comunique por este medio o al correo: [email protected]. Segun se hay gente que ya lo ha logrado conectando en cliente de C9 al servidor de Mgame...

Hello, I have been working for over a year to create a server, and regardless of the little or much success I have had, I have made considerable progress in this mission. If there is still anyone interested, please contact me through this medium or to the email: [email protected]. According to some, there are people who have already been successful in connecting the C9 client to the Mgame server...

What progress have you made so far? Because I may be able to piggy back off of that and maybe we can make even greater progress together?

WHAT DID YOU DO? You got to choose a name and a class? My biggest hurdle was the handshake after connecting to my python script. It just hung on logos with background music, but you're further ahead than I got before I took a break.
