localization removal

[Elgan]

I hate using normal exe's

i only use my own, which i applied NOCD, multie mohaa and removed the localization error.

not everyone needs to open more than one copy of moh, but i do often to debug stuff.

I think though, it would be great for many people to not have constant localization errors!..

I've been working with my modder's exe for so long, I've forgotten this is still an issue for people without it.
I agree with Elgan on this one!

K. So what needs to be changed? You will save me time digging for it

Remove/disable "LOCALIZATION ERROR: ..." errors, making sure they will be no longer printed in the console.

errm i will have to take a gander. or maybe use a compare programme. been a while, don't even had IDA or anything installed at the moment. kinda wanting to get back into it though.

errm. i think i actually just NOped the printable bit. wont print a 0 string.

here's modders patch

00115dde0 -> x0 * 16
00115ddf0 -> x0 * 16
00115de00 -> x0 * 16
00115de10 -> x0 * 16

is god enough..


any other errors you reckon?


might be cool to add back in the demo recording..but i don't have those offsets again either ..does anyone? i would love it again...

I can add demo record for client. I'll find function offsets.

razo, check the mutex function. Mutex() is what checks whether or not the existing process is running. If you RETN 0 or just NOP it, I think that would be sufficient to run multiple instances of MOHAA.

For localizations, just search the reference string and nope where it is or set an unconditional JUMP so that it isn't passed. I can look into both of these for you after work.

[Elgan]

the link exe has no localization...

i do NOT think avarage user should be able to run multiple mohaa's for various reasons...

however for modders it's helpful to debug stuff..

[Razo[R]apiD]

same as Elgan. Multiple MoHAA's is quite bad idea for users.

I've got the exe for the demo recording if that is what you guys need. Just let me know
