Hey there,
I do have some questions:
- Is C++ needed? Or maybe the choice of language is free (e.g. C# would be a better fit)
- Do you have instructions how to launch with ip:port parameter or do we need to reverse engineer this for Ultima Online (never played it, heard of it though!)
- To make your app / updates reliable and secure we would need to implement file signing and verification (public key on client, you sign files with a private key), is this ok? Do you need help with this?
- I will take my time to help you, but in return you can expect a well tested and quality application
- All the sourcecode IP/copyright will be transferred upon payment, alongside with compilation instructions etc, is that ok?
- Does there need to be a GUI?
- Does it have to be a standalone (or multiple) app(s) or do we need to "inject" / "hook" into the game?
- What platforms need to be supported?
I can handle the requested task, but clarification would be really nice.
This would be a really nice, fun and exciting challenge for me too :)
