A Local Server and patcher for the game Riff Racer in CSharp.
This code is based on the Python Riff Racer server: https://github.com/rebane2001/riffapi-local
However this is slightly edited and re-implemented in cSharp to make it easier to run (no dependencies).
This Server does not let you:
- View the charts / scoreboards
- Save your best scores or ghost files
- Play any track with your previous score
However this Server does allow you to:
- Manually keep track of scores (screenshots, etc)
- Start the game without an internet connection
- Play tracks whether old or new at any time
Simply open the csproj file with visual studio, and build the project as normal.
When building, I used Visual Studio Express 2012 though it should work on newer versions.
To view the source of built versions of this project, use 7ip or resource hacker to extract the .rsrc SOURCE folder.
These files are manually added to each built executable to keep the source available with every build in one file.
To run the server, simply run the file. It will try to find the game.exe and ParseOctane.dll first.
If it fails, it will say that Game.exe was not found and quit. If it was found, it will patch that dll file.
Assuming patching the dll fails (no file, invalid file, or re-patching without a .bak file), it will say and quit.
