Thread: Any Place To Obtain The Kazaa Protocol ?

  1. #1
    i just read this topic, where Paul has mentioned that many of the suggested features cannot be implemented becoz they would take too much time ..

    http://www.klboard.ath.cx/index.php?showtopic=37679

    since i've got loads of time on my hands, and am pretty good at programming, i thought i'd give it a try over the winter vacations .. however, that would mean creating a whole new client from scratch ..

    i would also need the kazaa protocol .. any ideas from where to get that ??

    thanks

    Sorry to be a downer but why dont you try making your own network?
    Or help hack the newest kazaa version 2.6, i cant see how creating your own kazaa hack would be any better.

    Most of things that kazaa really needs like partial filesharing and error correction can only be done with the source code which of course sharman will never release.

    See after project gIFT, they have a opensource fasttrack client... (not the best, but can be a good point to start)

    so in what language can you program?, because it would be nice if you could program in asem. then you could take over K++ project from RN (cause RN doesn't work on it anymore), and maybe make it compactible with 2.6, damn i think millions of people would be gratefull to you.. B)

    well indeed you can give it a try. K++ v2.02 is open source. i know it's not the latest version but if you can suceed in understanding and coding in it then that would be cool, see it als a work out ,afterwards you can work with the latest edition

    but what do should do first:

    unpack the newest 2.6 executable, what would probably be cracking it.. most likely it's protected with ActiveMark, once done it make a patch/loader (or update K++ with your findings) and delete the CRC check on the cd_clint.dll that KMD does to see if it is the right one.. that's we're you should begin with, unpacking the executable and many devs here can help i think..

    for the source code for K++ v2.02, i don't know a link for it, so anybody does know?
