==Master Server <-> Client==
==Master Server <-> Game Client==


The communication between Client and Master Server starts with UDP but then gets shifted to TCP with encryption/algorithm.
The communication between Game Client and Master Server uses TCP most of the part. Only at the beginning of the server list query, Game Client sends UDP packet and afterwards communicates in TCP. Yet the Game Client sends all data in plaintext, but expects the Master Server response to be encrypted in EnctypeX algorithm.




Master Server is listening on port 27900 with UDP and Client sends request:
Master Server is listening on port 27900 UDP and Game Client sends a UDP packet followed by TCP packets, therefore no need to answer here:

From there, Master Server knows Client will start a TCP connection now to query server list. Master Server needs to listen on port 28910 now:
Game Client requests server list from Master Server, therefore Master Server listens on port 28910 TCP now:

Now Master Server needs to fetch the necessary data and send it back to the client. This is the first time the message gets encrypted by the gamespy EnctypeX algorithm.

Gamespy protocol analysis in Star Wars Republic Commando

Author: -ffs-PLASMA aka. HW_KILLER_PR

Note: This documentation may be incomplete and some information/aspects may be interpreted/understood wrong!

Gamespy Gamename: swrcommando

Gamespy Gamekey: y2s8Fh

Gamespy Version: 0~3 (Hybrid) Plaintext and partial encrypted communication


The communication between Master Server and Game Server is completly in plaintext, however communication between Master Server and Game Client is partially encrypted. The data send from Game Client to Master Server is plaintext, however Game Client expectst the answer to be encrypted in EnctypeX algorithm!

Master Server <-> Game Server

The communication between Master Server and Game Server is in plaintext and only uses UDP protocol. Master Server listens on port 27900:


When a Game Server boots up for first time, it sends out 2 UDP packets to let Master Server know a new remote host is coming up. Master Server doesn't have to respond: 

0x09     <packet ID>
0x00     <no use>
0x00     <no use>
0x00     <no use>
0x00     <no use>

0x61     a
0x6e     n
0x64     d
0x6f     o
0x00     <null terminator>


Once Game Server is booted up and ready to accept connections, it sends all relevant game info to Master Server, essentially a \\status\\ packet every 30 seconds or so:

Master Server acknowledges the information and sends ack response back to Game Server: 

0xfe    <?? gamespy internal stuff>
0xfd    <?? gamespy internal stuff>
0x03    <packet ID>
0xd6    -- <Next 4 bytes are random ID generated by game server>
0x0c    --
0x82    --
0xe0    --
0x00    <end of packet indicator>


Finally, Game Server sends a heartbeat to Master Server every 10 seconds or so: 

0x08    <packet ID>
0xd6    -- <Next 4 bytes are random ID generated by game server>
0x0c    --
0x82    --
0xe0    --

Master Server <-> Game Client

The communication between Game Client and Master Server uses TCP most of the part. Only at the beginning of the server list query, Game Client sends UDP packet and afterwards communicates in TCP. Yet the Game Client sends all data in plaintext, but expects the Master Server response to be encrypted in EnctypeX algorithm.


Master Server is listening on port 27900 UDP and Game Client sends a UDP packet followed by TCP packets, therefore no need to answer here: 

0x09    <packet ID>
0x00    <no use>
0x00    <no use>
0x00    <no use>

Game Client requests server list from Master Server, therefore Master Server listens on port 28910 TCP now:
