Hello community ,
I've seen that there is quite a few people here that just can't wait to see new hacks being released. Two words to that: First of all, Blizzard has added quite a few new hurdles with this patch that make updating existing hacks very TIME-consuming. Blizzard has:
a) Mixed all exported ordinal numbers of library functions (these functions are heavily used by d2hackit/d2loader/d2ch etc..)
b) Re-compiled all dll with different optimizing settings. I suspect they used a borland compiler, as parameters are passed in eax,ecx and edi for non-exported functions, which is not "the usual" style of passing parameter. The consequence is, that internal functions used in hacks now require a "wrapper" function to call the functions they used to.
For example:
An intern function used to be commonly called with __fastcall convention (first two parameters are passed in ecx and edx) like this:
With these new optimizations the code has turned into something like this:
.. a very obscure way of calling. The only way around it is to do something like this:
ANYWAY.. my point is simply that it takes *time* for the old hacks to be updated and released!
Currently I am working on the following projects:
1) A free and simple maphack that only reveals the map (not intended to be competition to mousepad's maphack)
2) A re-written "d2loader" with a cd-key changing functionality
3) Updating my private clientless bot and possibly selling it..
- in no specific order -
You can see a picture of the current stage of updating my clientless bot for version 1.11 here:

The bot is working and refreshes characters. I'm updating the in-game code right now..
Here is an old screenshot of it working in version 1.10 (running my CMeph code):

So as you see, in time there will be new hacks released. Blizzard cannot beat us!
I've talked to mousepad too. Although he says updating his maphack is as boring as "counting dust specs" I'm sure he will release a new version for the beloved teenage masses.
