Melty Blood Auditorium / Has anybody succeeded in analyzing the replay files?

« on: October 27, 2007, 01:16:59 PM »

Hello there again, on-and-off visitor DZ here again. I was wondering one thing.

Has anybody in the community managed to decipher the headers for the replay data files? I've been trying to write a replay organizer program using some ideas I got off of other programs I've written, but haven't had any luck working those out. Given that my experience with reverse engineering is minimal, I could give it a try, but it's unlikely that I'd be able to figure out anything.

If nobody's been able to do this, then no matter. If, on the contrary, someone's already managed to understand said headers, how can I get in touch with them to request that information? I want to contribute to the community, but being a mediocre-to-decent player, there's little beside my knowledge of C# Windows programming that I can put to use to contribute. ;_;

Melty Blood Auditorium / Are the patches cumulative? If not, are there any mirrors of them?

Umm, hi there, I'm pretty much new here. I've been enjoying MBAC for a while now, and the Netplay client has brought so much fun to my life, my studies are falling behind, as much as I try for them not to. But that's not the point.

Y'see, I have a friend that recently got the game, but since the MBCaster only works with ver.B 1.03a, his installed copy won't work. So I was wondering, are the other patches cumulative, as in that if he just installs the 1.03a patch all the modifications from the others are also installed? If not so, are there any mirrors for any previous patches? I know there was a 1.02 patch before this one, but dunno if there were any others prior to that.

Thanks in advance, and sorry for the bother.
