In search for developers...

[GuiderGuy]

Redescription:
A team of Visual Basic coders are searching for a few team-mates to work with on a World of Warcraft Emulator.

Details:
The emulator is coded in Visual-Basic 6.0, and has been under development for a few steady months now. The progress is vast, as each and every day new functions are made. The emulator's name will not be published here for now, but it is the first Visual Basic 6.0 emulator to ever go that far as with regard to it's capabilities and functions.

Standards:
- The development is done using a secured SVN repository.

Progress: (Stuff that is done)
- Login, Character creation/save, entering world.
- Walking.
- Seeing other players.
- Chat works.
- Guild, Party stuff.
- Spawning creatures, Spawning objects.
- Attacking creatures.
- Spells.
- Death: Corpse spawn, Ghost mode.
- Auras: Buffs/Debuffs.
- Game Masters: Many extremely cool commands (Invisibility, teleportation, speed, money, spells... and more!)

Technical Proggress:
- Complete support of MySQL with a dynamic database.
- A tool to convert a certain emulator's existing database, to our database.
- Complete support of DBC reading and parsing.
- Use of an updated .NET Zlib.
- Packet Send/Encrypt/Decrypt system, never seen before.
- A user-friendly, minimal GUI for optimal use.

Requirements: ( (A) = Advantage, (O) = Optional, (M) = Must)
- (M) - You must be a VB6.0 Coder, since this is a VB6.0 Emulator.
- (M) - Winsock coding. This is a SERVER.
- (A), (O) - Know Encryption/Decryption, various Hashes (MD5, SRP, UTF..)
- (A) - Know the world-of-warcraft server-to-client protocols. LEARN THE PROTOCOLS ON EMUPEDIA.COM'S WIKI.

Apply here, or PM me.

in VB6 ??

Yes. The project as-well uses a .NET library (zLib compression).
The progress is pretty advancing, yet has a way to go before being complete.

We need the VB6 developers. Please respond to this message and contact me via PM. If you want MORE information, feel free to request so in this thread.

Well, there are many free tools out there, but if you feel you've got something new there, then sure, It will be great if you could post it.

Thanks for the interest though.

well i LOVE doing something whit a "Core"

 

[GuiderGuy]

You might not understand me, or I might be the one who doesn't understand you, but access to the core or any of the sources is only given to official developers of the project.

I could do some basic shit...Nothing too drastic, even just some graphics work to make the interface look limpin'

The GUI is fine the way it is. We try to make it as minimal and as simple as possible.

Extracting DBC's is a matter of seconds with a simple & free MPQ editor such as PowerMPQ.

To clear stuff out: We need VB6 developers. Read 1st post to get the briefing.

This can be my summer project. I have 3 months that can be fairly dedicated. My parents may limit computer time and I'm working on a car with my dad, most likely.
PM me with how much dedication this will take.

Why don't you guys work on Spurious? its written in VB.Net and the dude who wrote vWoW is currently on the team, As am I, Spurious is in development atm and supports 2.4.3 and we are farther along than vWoW and this is and we could use more help
