Anyways its better to be safe than sorry.

yeah, because hacking into the game to access a hidden outpost that lets you skip 3/4ths of a quest chain is exactly the same as displaying STATISTICS IN AN XFIRE CHAT CLIENT?

EDIT:

PlayNC says it's okay:
Thank you for contacting Guild Wars Support. We have no issue with the display of information so long as you do not modify, adapt, reverse engineer or decompile the Guild Wars client, or otherwise attempt to derive source code from the client when creating the applet.

Its not the statistics that really concern me (I know who gives a F what I think) its seeing others skill bars. In pvp do you want the opposing team to see you skill bar before you go into battle?

If you can pull other people skill bars/stats etc. what else can you take from the packets goin back & forth?

Anyways, I wouldnt touch this with a 10 foot pole.

Good Luck Have Fun!

.....2 questions:

a) why is an opponent in a PvP match in your XFire friends chat?

b) how the hell are you looking at his stats and focusing on the match at the same time?

My program doesn't do anything with the packets (but yes, it is possible to do anything with the packets)

There will be an option to turn off displaying of certain information. Unless you guys think it would be best to just disable the skill bar when it is showing a PvP only character.

^^^As to above, technically it does break the EULA, because it modifies GW but so do other mods, and we've seen by example that Anet is ok with them.

The program does not, in any way, shape, or form, write or change any values to assist the user to gain any sort of advantage. Yes, I know it is possible to do, and is why I am specifically NOT doing it.

And in addition, the data does not get sent off to my program to be sent to Xfire, I utilize the Xfire SDK directly from the game, so technically it is Xfire that would have to be banned from the game, which won't happen.

A. I was using PVP in general.

Say your Guild has a 1v1 tournamnet for your Guild only. You would have your guildmates on your xfire right? Thats when you would have someone that youare pvping on your friends list.

B. This could be done with Dual monitorsm but as I said above, Im not concerned with stats.

Ah cool, I wasnt tryin to dog your mod, I was just concerned of what other info could be used.

A quick update:

I've been able to add Currently Displayed Title to it as you can see here

With the additional help of Rushin Roulette and RbX (from the topic), I've been able to name 66 titles, to match the ingame names. If I am unable to find someone for the remaining titles, I will post which ones I need here.

Can't you release this beta? I want it sooooooooooo bad

Silly Warrior · Jan 17, 2008, 05:36 PM // 17:36

Looks very cool, the more I look at it

gammasts · Jan 17, 2008, 07:40 PM // 19:40

Another quick update, the latest GW update (today), broke 2 components of the program. I fixed one (was my stupidity that it broke), but the second one, is Title. I can't seem to fix title, and the process I get it through, is no longer available (for some reason), so there will be no Title for now.

Brett Kuntz · Jan 17, 2008, 11:33 PM // 23:33

You can grab all title info from the Player_Struct I was telling you about earlier. It's how I grabbed Title info for G-Stats a long time ago.

Snorph · Jan 18, 2008, 04:19 AM // 04:19

Wow, this is very cool, i hope to see the final product out soon. This is good news.

sagilltwins · Jan 18, 2008, 06:54 AM // 06:54

cool now i can stalk all my friends mwahahaha

Abedeus · Jan 18, 2008, 12:54 PM // 12:54

I want that too ;o

tasha · Jan 18, 2008, 02:55 PM // 14:55

I'm very interested in this. If you need any more help either in beta-ing or for when the titles get back online, feel free to pm me here for my xfire name (I'm reluctant to release it publically).

Good luck, and fantastic work on what you've done so far!

Dreamwar · Jan 18, 2008, 05:12 PM // 17:12

Hallelujah!

Would like an armor/weapons displayer too, but that will maybe come later

Yay for you!

Turn off xfire? >_>

swordgard · Jan 23, 2008, 06:19 PM // 18:19

Is there any way to get this beta here?Any release date?%
And btw this seems awesome!

Balkoth · Jan 25, 2008, 03:00 AM // 03:00

I tried this almost a year ago when xfire SDK first came out, but I didn't anywhere compared to your progress!

Do you have another site you pass info on, or do you just keep this thread updated?

And why is there no mention of this on the GW Xfire boards? I would have thought that the first place you to go with this. Would you mind if I updated them?

Best of Luck!

I'll be passing info on via this site (haven't anywhere else yet), though I mostly the people who are friends with me on Xfire can keep tabs.

No mention of this on the GW Xfire boards, because they are all noobs there. I don't venture to any forums past Xfire Clans & Guilds section because the stupidity levels rise to dangerous.

On another word, no release date yet, as I am still working on the GUI. Also trying to hammer out some other problem, which I probably could have avoided if I did it the exact proper way the first time.

In way of titles, I only need 2 more, Legendary Defender of Ascalon and any rank of Champion. Please add me (with custom add message), if you have either of these, so I can add them to the collection.

[Morkai] · Jan 26, 2008, 05:39 PM // 17:39

Looks awesome..

If y'need a beta tester count me in.
