When I noticed, that at least 3 people used my code for commercial purposes without notices and without sharing modifications. One Greek server has my  L2Auth modified, all others are private and unknown. I think, it's a bit unfair :) I would share it for those, who give me something back. Fixing compilation warnings, making some improvements, etc. 

 

BTW, thanks for bumping. My status about L2NPC.exe:

80% is decompiled in IDA (all variables, methods, structures, offsets, stack types, etc)

66% is in code right now

ALL parsers are decompiled and tested (for npcpos, categories, ai.obj etc)

NASC virtual machine is on 50% completion state

NASC-C1 compilator is on 66% completion state

 

I suppose to finish L2NPC.exe and NASC for C1 (for those, who might not now - there is no leaked C1 NASC, but C1 NASC is embedded inside L2NPC.exe) till the end of summer

 

As usual, any help is welcome. But recent months about 30 people only got my code, but didn't do anything back. So I share it pretty carefully now.

NASC compiler (codegen class) also exists in GF L2Npc, but sadly it is removed from anything newer, does not exists in H5 or GD :(. But it is easy enough to just patch GF for compiling :)

bro if you don't want peeps modifying and using your stuff for commercial purposes you in the wroooooooong place, you should go check that postpacific backup that was posted and go see what l2 "dev" community was like 11 years ago and as someone who was active then and now i can tell you it has not got any better, people gonna take your work, they gonna put their name on it, and sell it to every dumbass who will pay for it - it's been like that for longer than 11 years trust me on that

 

i'm not saying you should open it back up but seems a bit on the sillysauce side to me to be posting updates about a closed project, not as sillysauce as porting it to linux though idk why you're doing that O.o

Huh u are funny guy Toma, i did told u the same thing, that  at the end u would get scammed in an unfair way, all your work(time. effort that u put into it), would be just reselled by other people and u wouldn't even know about it,

Well, posting updates still attract people. Each month someone gives code and brings back some value.

Sources are closed, sorry for that. In order to get them you have to join the community, and to be skilled C++ programmer.

 

BTW, thanks for bumping. My status about L2NPC:

Only 15 functions left in L2NPC.exe. All other is working (AI priority queue, script virtual machine, etc)
QuestDataChecker is completed on 85%
NASC-C1 compilator is on done. Extended compilator might be found here (use --extmode)

Any plans to extend this to C3 and make it compatible with a downgraded interlude client? I work in C# not C++ and I've only been modifying C4 clients so far, but if someone is willing to give me some directions, I'm willing to put some serious time into the project.

When completing C1, I will add SDK with API, which will allow you to extend it to C3, or write any other customs. If you want to contribute and join the project, PM me with your skype.

Heads-up, I think he stopped responding.

Do you think I should comment every new message here? :) I'm still working on L2Server, have done skilldata parser/lexer (about 120 skill classes, 20 conditions, all parameters are parsed). Now I'm preparing testing environment in C#, to test whole stack (L2Server, L2AuthD, CacheD and L2NPC). It is needed, since I already have first messages from my L2Server. So, heads-up, work is in progress ;)

    • A misaligned badge or a heavy shadow is not evidence of AI. If anything, small inconsistencies are usually proof of years of manual modifications layered over an old codebase. AI-generated UIs tend to be overly clean, symmetrical, and generic because models optimize for visual patterns, not long-term product evolution. What you’re calling “AI design” is actually a very common style in older gaming communities: strong gradients, metallic buttons, glow effects, dense information blocks, and high visual emphasis on rankings/votes/sponsors.    Also, good UI is contextual. A toplist platform for MMORPG servers is optimized differently than a modern SaaS dashboard or a portfolio site. Here, visibility, CTR, sponsor highlighting, fast scanning, and information density matter more than minimalist whitespace trends from Dribbble. And honestly, if the UI was actually generated by AI, it probably would’ve looked more modern and generic — not like a platform that clearly evolved piece by piece over many years 😄   The funny thing is that a lot of these new “AI web designers” can’t even write 20 lines of CSS by hand without ChatGPT holding their hand 😄    They see a shadow, a gradient, or a rounded border and instantly scream “AI-generated” because their entire understanding of design now comes from prompting tools instead of actually building interfaces from scratch. And honestly, @Elfo was right — your own website looks far more AI-generated you built it with Tailwind/shadcn-style aesthetics and probably Next.js ,m i right friend? you built it with Tailwind/shadcn-style aesthetics...  You literally scanned the entire site just to find a tiny shadow behind a button as “proof” 😂 Real developers know the difference between a handcrafted project that evolved over many years, and a generic AI-generated template pumped out in 30 seconds.       Anyway, no hard feelings. Different tastes, different opinions 🙂
    • If it is AI-generated, you used a really shit model. Even AI wouldn't be able to generate obvious errors like the badge misalignment.   I do find it funny, however, that out of everyone to accuse you, Splicho, who used AI to fully generate this https://nimeracp.com/, is the one to talk.
    • You’re free to dislike the design, that’s subjective and totally fine. But calling everything you personally don’t like “AI generated” is not really an argument 😄 The funny part is that the layout constraints you’re criticizing are actually intentional design decisions for toplist platforms — ads, rankings, visibility blocks, sponsor placements, and high information density. This isn’t a portfolio landing page or a SaaS dashboard where you can leave half the screen empty for aesthetics. Also, AI-generated UIs usually look generic, over-animated, inconsistent, and impractical for real long-term usage. Our platform has been evolving for years based on actual user behavior, server owner needs, CTR optimization, and functionality requirements. You may not like the visual style, and that’s okay. But confusing “I don’t like this design” with “this was made by AI” just shows you’re judging emotionally instead of technically. Anyway, appreciate the feedback. Good luck to you too 🙂
    • You don't get it what I am trying to say. Your UI is simply ai generated, entirely. The current theme what you are using. I am not talking about the backend. It's just my personal preference/opinion that I think your UI looks really bad because it's AI generated and whoever worked on it didn't give a single fuck about how it looks, or at least take the time to rework the UI that AI generated yourself.   AI is just bad with design and your website is a proof of concept once again. But how would someone know what looks good and what does not look good if one doesn't have the design skills or knowledge.   Whatever, good luck with your site.
