I doubt anticheat will be open source.

the anticheat is garbage anyways. i saw at least 1 dude speedhacking a day when i was leveling

It matters not if it was leaked. Open source code is safer than closed source. Seeing it leaked and therefore was unsafe, organizing a public repo is a very good idea indeed.

Too many people with zero knowledge about FOSS development commenting about "hackers making it more hack friendly"... Please go to wikipedia and read about FOSS before posting about shit you have no idea of.

it's you bro who doesn't understand.

The open-source project will improve IN THE LONG RUN.

I'm just saying what it means for the server that is currently on the run.

TL;DR it will get worse before it gets better

Do you have any knowledge in programming? (Beyond "Hello World" shit)

 

Have your ever been in/part of an open source project?

 

You're just talking out of your ass dude.

Not tring to be the dick here but come on shenna we all know the core was leaked by old shady staff that had no right to be on the staff in the first place.I get that this is in your mind damage control but  u are going at it wrong.U are making this harder on your self and making u guys look like Liars flat out.

lets just hope the core was the only thing leaked and nothing else.

@Shenna and the rest of the team:

 

You guys put up with a lot of crap from a loud minority of the community. Unfortunate recent events have pulled people in different directions and you all continue to roll with the punches and adjust.  I understand the political correctness and professionalism you have to uphold while keyboard bullies take their best shots.

That being said:

When you guys took the lead in the Nost relaunch, you reconnected 10s of thousands of friendships created from players doing what they love.  Offered an experience for gamers to rekindle their inner geek, take MMORPG back to the glory days, and allow people born in the wrong decade to experience what many of us did 13 years ago.

From the perspective of a true RPG gamer, it doesn't matter who host.  It doesn't matter what country the admins originate from.  It doesn't matter if it is closed source, or open source.  It doesn't matter that 0.001% percent of the player base are cancerous keyboard warriors can only find the negative and magnify it.  Our team has fun.  We enjoy our time together.  No game in my long life of gaming from the early 90s has captured my attention and time investment as Vanilla has.  If it wasn't for you all relaunching the, Nost database, I wouldn't be here and would have walked away from it all.

I feel I speak from a silent majority when I simply say thank you.

Best of luck as you venture into this new territory of Open Source.  Take full advantage of the position contribution the passionate community can provide.

My team will continue preparations for AQ.

Will the code be available under a free license, like (for example) the AGPLv3?

[phatstakkz 0]

This is a great decision for the project given the circumstances, well done. I can't wait to see how the community contributes to the project once the repo is released, maybe I'll find some time to contribute some myself if that is allowed! Assuming community commits will be accepted, Is there any plans to put together some guidelines for how those wishing to contribute to the repo should interact with the repo and the dev team? What about a guide for setting up our own test environments for validating things before any submissions? I'm not familiar personally with how one would set up the core and a test db and whatnot.

[Gunari 3]

Interesting spin job lol.

Its the the right thing to do, though. 

[gustanoid 2]

I miss actual nost devs and their professionality. They were cool at all. Design of website/forums, user expirience, server maintenance etc

Crestfall and Alex outflanked again, they must be cursing.

[Revo 34]

this is a really really nice move. just dont open source your anti cheat, anti spam, whatever techniques :}

[Mahtan 15]

Shenna, this move is so beautiful. I hope you can profit from this change and attract a wide range of talented developers. The classic WoW community will never forget this good deed!

It's fun reading what non-programmers think will happen. If open source was so insecure then Linux servers would have died off long ago. Not to mention all the security tools, networking tools or the thousands of other projects in the financial space.

Just relax people, the sky is not falling.

This. And again, this. Instead of being dying, it probably is the most used & most secure server Os worldwide.

how long has linux been open source project, how long is nostalrius core in open source? see the difference bro? it's all about time perspective.

look i get it - all of you white knights, who don't want the server to collapse happen to be expert programmers and you say it will be fine cos open source projects are TEH SHIT!!!

like i said before - it's all about time perspective. elysium doesn't have enough time, but the future private servers will surely profit.

get over it.

Most of you tin foil hat children seem to forget that Nost had already planned to make the core open-sourced.
