Who are you?
Currently, we are a small team:

TL Works - Server Host - Host of top-rated Terraria server, Teeria Legends
SSFM/TehCupcakes - Lead Developer - Professional experience in C#, SQL, MVC, and more, with additional experience in Java, PHP, IDA, Game design, etc.

"We" do not have a name for the source, server, or team. Anyone who joins is welcome to contribute their ideas on what we should name ourselves.

What is your goal?
- To make a GMS-like v62 source that is clean, stable, and coded in C#. This project is focused on accuracy and efficiency; all packet handling will be built from the ground up in order to ensure an accurate implementation of features from the official servers.
- Secondarily, we would like to run a public server and add on custom features that can be easily disabled or enabled within the source. Of course, this will only come after core GMS features are complete.
- It is our intent to release some version of the source when it is in a good state that is fairly feature-complete, so that others may learn from our work and the Maplestory community can benefit.

What is done so far?
- The "core" of any source, which includes the cryptography, communication between servers, sending/receiving packets with the client, and the general source architecture.
- NX file parsing
- Handling of login packets, and a few basic "Game" packets
- NPC and Portal scripting engine
- A custom launcher that includes WZ verification
- A machine to host the server on has been procured
- Git repository set up

What do you need?
- Source Developers - You must be proficient in C#. Basic IDA knowledge strongly preferred; you should be able to locate and research packet structures and use this information for development.
- NPC Scripters - Basic programming experience, C# preferred. You will be translating and/or rewriting javascript scripts to work with our C# scripting engine.
No other open positions at the moment

Why are you looking for help?
We are not lacking in the skill needed to accomplish our task. However, time being a limited resource, it would go much quicker with more hands to help out. Thus, we want more people in the team to speed up the development process. As lead developer, I will closely review all code changes to ensure clean and high-quality code.

You may apply by posting here or sending me a PM. Please include proof of your qualifications or your application will be rejected. (Unless you already have a proven track-record on Ragezone).
