To be fair, a large portion of the community isn't that great either.

players are fine cuz they are paying, but if you get stabbed in the ass by 10 different servers in the last few months, you see no reason to play this game anymore.

I know that you are talking about p servers, but the main people who are paying NCWest (and NCTaiwan) are actually botmasters. So I would expect a similar thing in p servers as well.

 Otherwise you MUST go the way @MasterToma did, simply RE and create equivalent source code.

Btw, I completed C1 3 months ago :) And 10 days ago we switched to C2. Real C2, which was never exists in private servers. Yea, C2 is still in progress.

 

If you know, how do extenders work, you should understand, that offline shop, craft book, vampiric, vote rewards,  auto-soul shots, anti-bot CAPTCHA - those things are almost impossible to do on c1 with extenders. Not talking about hundreds of bugs, and stabilizing sever so it's not crashing twice per day with 300 online.

 

I don't care about online much, very few ppl who are love c1/c2, I'm doing this to preserve part of history. And extenders/L2J/private projects in 90% are for $$.

I'm not exempting owner practices in general, I'm just stating that the community is so entitled these days that all the organized clans/cp ask for money or special perks to join a project, and there's a plethora of servers that are willing to do that. The problem is that after a month or so, the said sides abandon ship and cash out their epics/gear, and this kills servers. But usually the time-frame is enough for a project to have generated enough profits to call it a day. Rinse and repeat. Rinse and repeat. : P

Maybe we should create a sub community of server owners that are not greedy assholes and actually care to provide fair long term servers that are focused on community building and unique features.

I always thought that it would be interesting if a crowd funded project was created by the community, for the community. I'm completely oblivious as to how much it costs to secure top files, employ a credible developer, and how much maintenance & staff would require, but I suppose someone with experience on the subject can enlighten us.

 

Perhaps crowd fund is a way to secure a project without financial concerns, and back-door deals. Just think about it. Zero donations (for perks), zero dependancy on mercenaries, zero concerns over the server having to make sure it's not at a loss financially for its owner. 

 

The community funds it, the developers get paid, the files are bought or leased, and everyone involved is happy.

Wasnt this the initial model of servers back in the day? Voluntary donations by the community to cover the costs without any ingame rewards?

    • You can find some H5 skins shared in old L2 modding Discords, but most of the higher‑quality ones are either paid or come bundled with full client edits. I usually mix in commissioned work and whatever I can patch myself. On a side note, I fund a lot of these commissions by selling off game items through instant sell cs2 skins, which has been a quick way for me to get some cash for projects.
    • There is no need for gRPC in this case, even tho originally it was gRPC based but since we don't need it to be bi-directional, we switched to simple http requests for the web calls and SSEs for the data streamed from the server. There are distributed locks in place to precent race conditions between actions that can happen between multiple web instances and the server.   Local models can also be slow depending on the model, and most external models can actually be faster than local ones if you use Flash 2.5 or something along those lines. I am running on 512GB of Unified Memory on my Mac Studio M3 Ultra so the speed of the local model for a small model is pretty good but I tested it with Gemini too and it works equally as fast and in some cases faster. The way it works is that I'm using pgvector (one of the benefits of moving to Postgres) to search the data and see what the player can see etc and there is some batching of the next few actions for 2-4 seconds for the user until the next LLM request fires. The batching also includes branching on logic so if they for example fall under some HP they will move to kiting instead of attacking or maybe they heal etc.   Everything is authed and permission-based. The server and the backend of the frontend have secure communication between them, either with a symmetric key (not recommended for production) or a certificate (the recommended way), so there is no worry. It's all tied to the account's access level, etc., so nobody can make an action that they normally wouldn't be allowed to do. Even the MCP is token-based, and there are prompt injection protections in place. The MCP is audited, and every mutation needs confirmation. The admin area is only accessible to the admin account anyway so normal users can't access it.
