Script for Direct RO Login (Bypass Launcher)

[onemyndseye]

Here guys...

This keeps coming up. Create the following script in your RO directory


ro-direct.sh

#!/bin/bash

case "$1" in
 --gui)
	RO_USER="$(cat ~/.ngdstudios/rolauncher |grep user= |sed '{s|user=||}')"
	PASSWD=$(zenity --entry --hide-text --text=Password) 
        PASS_CRYPT=$(echo -ne $PASSWD | md5sum |awk '{print $1}')
        PASSWD=""
	;;
     *)
	if [ -z "$1" -o -z "$2" ]; then
	  echo ""
	  echo "Usage: $0 <user> <password>" 
 	  echo "       $0 --gui"    
 	  exit 1
	else
 	  if [ ! -f ./live/game ]; then
	    echo "Regnum Live folder not found! Running from the correct directory?" 
	    exit 2
	  fi
	fi
	RO_USER=$1
	PASS_CRYPT=$(echo -ne $2 | md5sum |awk '{print $1}')
	;;
esac


cd ./live
./game $RO_USER $PASS_CRYPT &
RO_USER=""
PASS_CRYPT=""
exit 0

Take care,

How do you use it?

Like:

# ro-direct.sh user pass

[ArcticWolf]

Exactly, just like any other parameterized command or script.

./script.sh --gui
or
./script.sh user password


Nice one!

[onemyndseye]

Thanks


Sorry.. I guess I assumed everyone would see the pararm's in the script while reading the post

Yes, Exactly as ArcticWolf posted.

A little more info about this script:

1. It will always launch a session connecting to the last server you played on

2. In gui mode it will "ask" for the password with a zenity dialog box. In this mode it will always use the last user that you connected with. (from the launcher)

3. If your client isnt completely up to date it WILL cause problems for you.

4. Not sure how NGD feels about this login method and as such they may decide to break it at any moment.

Mine script is not working anymore.

[Cuchulainn]

its also possible to make a direct starter on your desktop.

if u use XFCE just make a starter at one of your bars, choose as working directory the live folder and put ./game <your accountname> <md5-hash> into the command line. Its probably also possible with gnome and kde somehow.
And dont forget to change the line sv_game_server_host =... to sv_game_server_host = 91.123.197.138 of the game.cfg file.

I have to say... this is not the recommended way to enter the game. The launcher is there for a reason :P

The login process will be improved and this wont be possible anymore, but I can't tell you when right now.

thanks for the input surak

yeah I've noticed that when I write the wrong password the serverlist does not show up didn't before
