Hacking How can I start coding games?

[TamDanny]

OK, first of all, I'm starting to incline on the fact that this might be a troll thread. I'm sorry if you're being serious, the things you're saying are definitely something quite...different than what we usually hear. If you want to be making hacks and stuff like that, I think a lil' research wouldn't hurt.

And second, you want to make an online cheat system, not because you want to be at the top of the rankings; but because you just want to screw people up or because you don't like the game? That's messed up. I remember having tons of fun with Mario Kart Wii. The times with my friends and online were insane, but entertaining. I even managed to get a Regional Champion Time Trial record on one of the courses, & that felt so satisfying! Then hackers came along. It wasn't the same playing alongside people who immediately obtained the Star power and 3 Red shells as soon as the race started. And when I saw that my record was beaten by a user who finished the track in 3 seconds, that felt cold.

I'd really like to have an online competition where we'd just race where anyone can win, it's just a lot of fun to see the hilarious moments or the miraculous comebacks. Believe me, playing just for fun with other people, even if there's some hardcore elements involved, is the best thing you can ask for in a game. Those moments where you're shocked in disbelief or laughing like crazy because of what happened in an instant are the best moments that a game can give.

Oh, and just a personal thought here, Mario Kart 8 is a pretty gorgeous game in my opinion. I have no regrets buying this game.

Oh, OP, it's pretty easy.

You need to make a GUI in Visual Basic and then use Emacs through sendmail right into the console's RS232 port. Be careful when connecting though, as one of the 232 pins might bend and it'll be all in vain! After that, just remember to set your MAC address to Washington DC. The resulting program might want Python to run, so you will probably have to go to the pet store and buy the snake, or maybe even three, just in case one chokes on your computer mouse - they do like rodents, after all.

So just because you don't like MK8, you thought you'd try to ruin it for everyone else by releasing online cheats. Did you stop to think about all the people who do like the game? I love playing MK8 online but it would be ruined by cheaters. I sincerely hope you utterly fail in your endeavour.

He will just start 'coding' 'Mario Kart 9'.

This thread needs to go to EOF immediately.

this thread reads like a comedy sketch.

This was a great adventure. Took me right out of my depression. Now I can't stop laughing.

My next Homebrew App is going to be Viagr-U now, made special for the OP.

@cornerpath
You have been around since the Wii times and you are still clueless. Get a different hobby especially since you're just trying to ruin a game for others just like a certain script kiddie website did back during the Wii times *cough*.

Good thing is, *making* mods takes skill so kids like you can't feel badass unless someone feeds you those mods.

Your little YouTube modding videos are about leeched mods and not made by you in the slightest. Downloading hacks and running them proves no understanding or technical skill whatsoever so don't expect to be successful in doing anything on your own

Cornerpath has unfortunately been known to make n00bish posts/threads like this in the past... (one time, he actually made a thread asking to be admin for a day, lmao! xD)

He really needs to reconsider his choice of words in a post, let alone the click-bait thread title.
I thought he wanted to actually make a game or something, not to make mods for games... >.>
Plus, according to his age, he is 22 years old. So he should really start to act as if he is 22 years old and start to think a bit more before he posts stuff that's gonna trigger everybody.

Also, no-one likes an online cheater!!

Personal notes aside, I would look in some of the other big threads for techniques and methods to make cheats and mods. You will be suprised at how much info you might find in those threads...

this thread gave me cancer.

EDIT: am i the only one that thinks if you're clueless on what an ip address is and how to find the ip of a device in your home network you probably lack the skills of properly modding a game without script-kiddie tools?

Nope - that's just what I was thinking.

That is usually the difference between those that mod games for fun and enjoyment, and those that only mod to cheat. It's the mindset of each, because at the point you are intelligent enough to mod games properly for fun, you figure out that cheating other people brings no satisfaction to your life. It's been that way for YEARS.

@op This is right from nint how to set up manual ip. Drop most of the steps after step 8.

@BullyWiiPlaza if memory serves me correct you had trouble getting tcp gecko to work in the first place. So, if you could try and help this user achieve his goal instead of being bitter. I know you are capable of helping.

@OP again... Cosmo is great to learn from.


Just go to this video and follow this user.
Just remember to have fun poking around.
