Ok I am not really a hacker but I been reading up on packets and stuff out of personal interest and it occured to me that packets are how client and server communicate so why not dupe packets, edit packets, etc. and use it to cheat in game? Well I thought I was a genius and shit because im a newb and all so I go to google and after a few keywords found that it is done and has been done on quite a few games. The way I imagine it is that lets say you sell a gastra in shop. when you click the button acknowledging the sell a packet is sent to the server that lets the server know you are selling it. The server then credits your character with the gold for the gastra. Now what if you can dupe that particular packet over and over and send it to the server a few times. Im sure it has to check to see if you have the item though doesnt it? Maybe you can manipulate item drop checks this way though. I dont know like I said im a noob.
Anyways has anyone every done any of this stuff? Would it work? Why? Why not?
