Source editing

[UpInSmoke]

Hi all, now i know alot about programming but i dont seem to understand 'source editing'.
I looked in tutorials, used the search bar and just couldnt seem to find any guides or tutorials.

I see all these different people talking about editing things in places called 'protocolgame.cpp' or 'player.cpp'
stuff like that.

So my questions are; where do i find these? and how do i edit them?

rep++ thank you :$

Hi UpInSmoke,

Basically the source files are the original files of the project, where the coding gets done.

OtLand has an area where you can download the source files (here) along with great tutorials for building (compiling) your own server from these files (for e.g here).

Hope this has helped you out and good luck with it.

Cheers,
Yodot.

Actually they are quite different; programming as far as Java and somewhat Lua i can make basically anything. I wasn't asking for a tutorial on learning C++, i was asking how to find those files and edit them into my server; this has basically nothing to do with programming. Why don't you learn more about the two before you ever touch your keyboard again.
