1. You need to create a text file npcnames.txt in server directory:

Code Select

Alfred
John
medic
npc100
mike

2. Find libvcmpintercept.so in downloaded files and put it also in server directory.

3. Preload the library and specify the server port to run the server

Code Select

VCMP_SERVER_PORT=8192 LD_PRELOAD=./libvcmpintercept.so ./mpsvrrel64_v39

The npcs Alfred and mike are connected, their names entered at sl.no 1 and 5 respectively in npcnames.txt is not shown in the list to a client !

PS: The source could be more bit more optimized.
