HELP NEEDED: PEOPLE WHO ARE GOOD AT REVERSE ENGINEERING PEOPLE WHO ARE COMFORTABLE WITH SQL tl:dr We are trying to make a chinese rip off of tf2 playable again but need help. This is Final Combat, a Chinese rip off of TF2. As of July 9th 2018, The servers have shut down and became impossible to play due to the game requiring you to connect the servers to access the game. Only trace of the game files left is an archive from archive.org that dates back to 2014. >Great! You got the game files now play the game! Not so simple. Everything is locked behind a log in screen. Obviously, we can't log in due to the servers being down and if we try to brute force our way in, the files being stored in what seems to be an extremely compressed PDE file Here's our problem. We don't really know how to extract data from the pde file. Plus we'd also need to rewrite the sql to connect to a local host and the exe to launch the game properly. >What's your end goal with this? Our goal is to be able to give all the assets from the game whether it be models, textures or other things to the community. We also hope to be able make the game actually playable so people can actually experience what the game is like. >Why should I help you? There's very little footage actually showcasing everything the game has to offer. Only things I personally found online is low quality gameplay from 2012 and before and the odd 5 minute gameplay video. Despite this game being a crappy TF2 knock off it still has a part in TF2 history due to it's copy cat nature. + because the game servers are quite literally dead, this game is pretty much lost media. >I'm not experienced with SQL or reverse engineering, how can I help? Best way to help is to spread the word to people who could possibly help. Every bit counts. Feel free to drop your discord down in the comments or just put your questions down there. -Joey Cheerio
