Hi all

I tried to mode eMule. I donwload the sources, I optimize eMule for my CPU and others changes. All work very fine, but I would to change the name of the client from eMule 0.44d to eMule 0.44d - daviduzzolo version.

I don't want to distribute my mode, but it's only a my fixation

Somebody can help me?

Thanks and Merry Christmas

This is not the completely right place to ask this question but I will leave it here. Have you tried searching the source code for that string?

[daviduzzolo]

I tried to search for this streang in all files, but nothing

Sorry for the mistake, and please move the 3d in the right place.

[birk]

Tried looking for it myself but no luck here either. Will leave it here to see if someone know it.

search for this in emuleDlg.cpp

//set title  	
CString buffer = _T("eMule v");    
buffer += theApp.m_strCurVersionLong;  	
SetWindowText(buffer);

just change it to

//set title  	
CString buffer = _T("eMule v");    
buffer += theApp.m_strCurVersionLong; 
buffer += " - daviduzzolo version";
SetWindowText(buffer);

happy MOD

Thanks a lot

I think that will change the name of the window only, but, if I understood correctly, the original poster wants to change also the way the MOD identifies itself to other clients, doesn't it?

Regards.

[engarmano]

Of course, it will change the text of the emule window only but not actually change the emule version that other clients can see
Other clients will still detect him as "eMule v0.44d".

but i think he want that?

Yes!!! Do you know the part of the source I must to change?

[skolnick]

I think you will not find the string by itself in the code, since the protocol is made of bytes, not plain chars. I don't know the exact part of the code where you should change this, all I can tell you is that this is specified in the extended emule hello, there is where the client identifies itself as an emule client or MOD. If you find where that is, I could help you figuring out what to write down, but maybe is easier to ask in the development forum.

Regards.

its more complivated,i didn't try it, but when i try to compare the emule source with mod source, i found that they
1-declare two cstring variables in emule.h

public:
CString  m_strModVersion;
CString  m_strModLongVersion;

2-create new headerfile "ModName.h" and define these variables: (those variables defines ur modname and version)

#define MOD_VERSION_MJR	1
#define MOD_VERSION_MIN	18  
#define	MOD_VERSION	_T("Test")
#define	MOD_LONG_VERSION	_T("Test v")

3-Include this file in "emule.cpp"
4-now,in the file emule.cpp at CemuleApp::CemuleApp(LPCTSTR lpszAppName)
u will find a comment

// MOD Note: Do not change this part - Merkur
code
// MOD Note: end

of course u must not change this code, but after it write those lines

m_strModVersion = MOD_VERSION;
m_strModVersion.AppendFormat(_T(" %u.%u"), MOD_VERSION_MJR,MOD_VERSIaON_MIN);  	
m_strModLongVersion = MOD_LONG_VERSION;
m_strModLongVersion.AppendFormat(_T("%u.%u"), MOD_VERSION_MJR,MOD_VERSION_MIN);

5-now,u can neglect my first post and use this code: (in emuledlg.cpp)

//set title   
CString buffer = _T("eMule v");    
buffer += theApp.m_strCurVersionLong; 
buffer += " " + theApp.m_strModLongVersion;
SetWindowText(buffer);

6-if u use the feature "Show transfer rates on title" u must change the line in "PPgDisplay.cpp":
Change

_stprintf(buffer,_T("eMule v%s"),theApp.m_strCurVersionLong);

to

_stprintf(buffer,_T("eMule v%s [%s]"),theApp.m_strCurVersionLong,theApp.m_strModLongVersion);

7-Last Step
Sorry But i didn't find the last step, which send ur emule mod version to other clients, I think its somewhere in "BaseClient.cpp", i'm still searching 4 it,i will tell u if i find it.
I think its only one line remaining.

President Birk, can u move this topic to developers forum

and we can find more help there.
thanks

[daviduzzolo]

Thx engarmano, now I try this and and I'll say you the result

[SlugFiller]

ModID is available in the code snippets section under "Three protocol extensions". It includes both sending and receiving(displaying). It's not 100% up to date with the latest eMule, but for the most part the code can be used as-is, while in other parts the official already provides the code you need.
The sending part, if you choose to implement only this, is only a couple of lines, so it shouldn't be hard to spot it in the patch and use it.

Great support for me

I tried how engarmano posted and using the sources of the Morph I understood how to modifie all All work very well

Now I try the SlugFiller method.

Tnx a lot

[engarmano]

Thanks SlugFiller 4 this good topic,

daviduzzolo, To test ur eMule after modifications:
Add urself in friends list
Ip:127.0.0.1 (loopback)
Port:4662 (ur emule port)
UserName: (anything)

rightclick--->send message----> (type anything)
if the connection successed, new window appear with ur message.
now dblclick on ur name, and check ur version.

note that: u must disable the ipfilter

[daviduzzolo]

I tried, all work

Thanks a lot
