This guy has a combat log that runs and no one from Turbine will give him any feed back. Since it is available in source code, they probably can't read it.

QA is probably running the code and since it works, they aren't sure what to make of it.

They don't want to give an answer because they like everything in a shade of gray.

This could be a nice thing to metric quests with:
Healing required
Damage to time ratios
We'd actually be able to test their AC code!
This could also be used to create a healbot that actually works even.

Wow, this has been available for months and I hadn't seen it before.

Given that Turbine have banned people for poking around the game data I can't see them allowing this.

Obviously I definitely won't be cloning the git repo and poking around the code. Certainly not. Honest.

The answer he's going to get is:
"The lawyers said no"

They are going to see his blog and see the term "hack" and not read anything else about it.  It's not worth their time and trouble to attempt to determine if it "safe" or not.

Now, he could score a job at Turbine out of it.

Fuck, you could probably send them an application via email, start the email off with - this is in binary and I emailed it so you worthless fucks could copy paste it with ease into a decoder.

They would think you are a fucking genius and hire you without copy pasting what is actually you spamming 1's and 0's at random.

Well at first glance it looks impressive. Modular so anybody could write their own plugins. Seems as though you would have access to anything passing through the combat and chat logs. Fun stuff.

It would certainly make it easier to find out the proc rates and damage dice of effects in future.

Expecting Turbine to stomp this one down hard.

Somebody get the guy who wrote it onto the Vault!

All the folks at EQEmulator have been pegged after by Sony for years.  If I were him I'd say screw it and go.  Upload everything so they can't unring the bell and laugh.

Whats more interesting is that this information is sent in the clear from the server to client.

New plan - send Turbine a buggy version and fuck with the numbers they're seeing!

They probably get tons of code and look at this as just another attempt to get a job. Well... in this case they should just get their heads out of their asses and hire the guy. Even if it's just freelance.

Hmm, using this someone with way more linux experience than I could use <redacted> a packet sniffer.

It looks awesome.  But agree with kav, too much work at this point.  Self-extracting installer would be a different story...

From the way he was talking I don't think they are encrypted well.

From the look through of the code, the logs aren't encrypted at all, just a case of hooking into the appropriate dll and pulling a copy off. suprised someone didn't do this already. Now a way to send information back would be pro - auto spam bot for Shade off a free account or 600 anyone?

Shit...  This is some fairly simple code.  I'm a little out of practice in this area but if follow the code...

He uses the EasyHook library to snag the running client.  This allows him access to the API's provided by the Client.  It's all built in .NET Remoting from what I can tell.

He's not reading the packet stream he's reading the messages directly from the client or the messages as they are being passed between the client and the run time.  It looks like you can even inject messages into the chat log.

The rest of the application is essentially REGEX text parsing and manipulation for the UI.  The amount of code related to actually access looks like it's under 100 lines.

...this was a 15 minute review and I could have some inaccuracy at exactly what is happening but it looks rather slick and leads me to wonder what else the client exposes.  This is definitely slippery slope where the EULA is concerned.

Also, the fundamental flaw with this is that it relies on Turbines combat log which is suspect at best.

For those lazy people, he actually provides a compiled binary if you can be bothered to look.

EDIT: Obviously you'll be breaking the EULA if you actually use it...
