[TUTORIAL] Sending Patches To The Client Through The WoW App

(1/8) > >>

stoneharry:


With Schlumpf's guidance I was able to successfully implement a way to send custom patches to the client through WoW rather than a custom launcher.

The implications for this are quite clear. It allows one to:


* Require the latest patch to login.
* Send incremental patches.
* Send any data.I wrote up a guide to do this which Schlumpf has heavily edited to create a, hopefully, useful publication.

The link to this can be found here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/fovh9mtrj9tgqd4/Implementing%20in-client%20patching%20for%20World%20of%20Warcraft.pdf?dl=0

Edit: 21/06/2014:

You will have to edit the binary to allow unsigned patches: <!-- l -->viewtopic.php?f=59&t=1829<!-- l -->

This is my code changes for a more recent TrinityCore version in order to get patching to work: <!-- m -->https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/110 ... nity.patch<!-- m -->

You may want to add links to code excerpts or even the whole zip for ease of copying.

Awsome guys!

You sure you just want to keep it at drop boxs?
You could also upload it to the forum if you want to.
Very nice.
Thanks to both of you!
PS:I corrected your links btw.

stoneharry:
Thanks, yeah when I posted this before I was ready by mistake. Now every time I try to edit the post it disapproves the post. FML.

Did you test it only on ArcEmu or Trinity?
