LF2 Network + AntiCheat

[Arghs]

Hey guys, first sorry for my bad english.
Im a C# developer and a huge LF2 Fan.
I want to ask the community if they want there own LF2 Network.

This is the idea:


The server (running on a root) collects players and search for each of them a oppenent.
Now the server tells the LF2 Network client, that a oppenent exists.
The Client tells the player he can connect to a IP.
And now there is a match.

The only problem is how to check who wins the match. (Own LF2?)
Maybe you have ideas?

Please tell me if you like my idea.

thanks, Arghs

sorry again for my bad english

silva is working on this
he can already determine whether host or client won the game - only thing left is getting the name of that player i think

WAS working. I gave up due to lack of programming knowledge.

Sorry for the lack of comments in my code + the crappy-ness of it . If you have any questions feel free to ask me.

(the win check thing only works online, if you are playing offline its different numbers so the code wont work).

Did you read Process Memory to find the Winner?

No, since this is a DLL, I just made a dll which accepts some inputs and than compares them and stuff. If you want to use Read Process Memor, heres the basic logic :

Read address 449054,
If 449054 <= 13 {
Winnner == host
}
Else
{Winner == client}

To find out who the client is, and who the server is you need this:

read address 449100
if 449100 == 2 {
local LF2 == host
}
if 449100 == 4 {
local lf2 == client
}

To see if the lf2 that is running is the winner, just do
if winner == local lf2
{you won}
else
{you lost}

I hope that made sense.


Client = the person that connects, a.k.a the person that has to write the I.P address
Host = Person that gets connected to, a.k.a person that presses "waiting for opponent"

Edit: Actually, I think I got what you mean, you didn't mean the actual read process memory API, but actually reading lf2 memory... And yes I did read the process memory.
