	Hey. I've been looking into it, and because wine runs as a VM, and there are a lot of reasons people using wine would want to examine contents of memory (trying to get software to work) it's fairly easy to access memory transparently through wine's API. We could simply push a small patch every time there is an update that changes the memory offset in NexusRadar, or have it read from a file. (Should only have to change the corresponding variables.) I still have to look at this, but if it looks like someone could actually use it, then I think I may start work on it. --[[User:Dread\|Dread]] 19:56, 23 September 2008 (UTC)		Hey.

	I really like this idea, but has any work been done on porting this to linux to work under wine? I realize not many people use Linux or, let alone and play this game, but I'd be willing to head that up, as I wanted to do something along these lines anyway. Is there a good codebase I could look at to marry it into your system? --[[User:Dread\|Dread]]		I really like this idea, but has any work been done on porting this to linux to work under wine?

			== Re: Cross Platform Client ==
			Hi Dread. Currently there hasn't been any work done on a multi-platform client. The current implementation has been done in C#/.NET, but has been written in such a way that to allow for most of the core functionality to compile under an alternative .NET implementation such as Mono, which is cross-platform. The problem with that, however, is that the client relies on unmanaged Win32 API calls to extract the coordinate information from the NexusTK client in-memory. These native calls are not supported by Mono. So, the real challenge would be to devise a way to extract the X,Y coordinate values from NexusTK running under Wine. Wine does have an API, but I am very skeptical. I would release the source under a GPL-friendly license, but we had to do some work on a secret key exchange between the client-server to prevent spoofing attacks, so for right now I'd rather keep it private. If you can find a way to extract the X,Y coordinates from NexusTK under Wine, let me know and I can give you access at that point. I'm not even sure NexusRadar is even working on the Windows client right not actually, as every update requires a recalculation of the memory address offsets to look at...
