It's been a long time since I've actually made a tutorial so this may not be 100% complete although I'll make sure that it is complete, but before we proceed, let me just provide a short introduction on RBSE. RBSE (Ruby Club Penguin Server Emulator) which was originally supposed to be named RBCPSE (Ruby Club Penguin Server Emulator) is an emulator written in Ruby built to support the AS2 Protocol of Club Penguin. Although RBSE is still in the works and plenty of changes will take place, it is currently ready for testing and non-commercial purposes and you are advised to kindly read the LICENSE of RBSE. Before we proceed with the tutorial, you have to know that if you are a Windows user, then this isn't the tutorial for you and you are left alone as this tutorial is for Linux users only and as well, this tutorial is for those who use Ubuntu (which is pretty much what the community uses anyway). Your to-do list and requirements: 2GB Ram or more. Quad Core Processor or any greater processor. 30 GB SSD. LAMP or LEMP Database Management Software - Adminer, Navicat, MySQL WorkBench or whatever software you prefer. Ruby 2.4 cURL Geany Adobe Flash AS2 Mediaserver setup with your server ip address/domain along with Ben's direct login implementation. Sweetalert Once you have all this setup, you may click on this link to download RBSE and extract it to wherever you want. You will find a folder with some json files called JSONS, so move this folder to var/www/html and as well don't forget to move the Register folder to the same directory. Then you would need to import the using your database management software. Here is an example using Adminer. Setting up the register is relatively simple, all you have to do is open each and every file in the folder using Geany and edit the urls and as well don't forget to edit the configuration file. Next you would need to install each and every gem listed in the README, starting from the top to the bottom one by one so you won't face any issues. You may install the gem using the following command which needs to be executed in your terminal. Example: gem install rails Once you have all this done, you may now login to your server using the default user details provided in the README As RBSE is still currently under development, any help would be appreciated and if you face any issues or need help with something except with setting up the emulator, then please feel free to create an issue and message me on Discord: Lynx#6726.

Official thread for Icer.ink - Club Penguin Media Archive Hello everyone, I have recently taken it upon myself to produce a clone of Club Penguin's client media. I built this by parsing JSON and XML configuration files, but also by making use of other techniques such as basic web scraping and by auditing a lot of the action script code inside the client files. The end result is around 4GB of game media (uncompressed). The root directories are named after their respective web domain. Browse the directories Download media (4.4GB)

Hello everyone, Many Club Penguin Private Servers make use of only one world server, this is generally a good thing as it keeps all of your players together and helps encourage social interaction between players in the game. Club Penguin has always given the players the option to choose which world server they want to join, but if there is only one world server, what's the point in providing users the option? I wrote some code which will give you the ability to remove the world selection screen from the game entirely, this not only makes login faster thanks to not having to ask the user for input, but also because we no longer need a login server at all, we just authenticate with the world server and call it a day. Here is the actionscript code for the dependency shockwave flash file: import com.clubpenguin.util.*; import com.clubpenguin.crypto.*; var SHELL = _global.getCurrentShell(); var AIRTOWER = _global.getCurrentAirtower(); AIRTOWER.connectToLogin = function(in_username, in_pass, login_response) { if (!AIRTOWER.is_logged_in) { AIRTOWER.on_login_response = login_response; AIRTOWER.username = in_username; AIRTOWER.password = in_pass; AIRTOWER.server.onConnection = Delegate.create(AIRTOWER, AIRTOWER.handleLoginConnection); AIRTOWER.server.onExtensionResponse = Delegate.create(AIRTOWER, AIRTOWER.onAirtowerResponse); AIRTOWER.server.debug = true; AIRTOWER.addListener(AIRTOWER.HANDLE_LOGIN, AIRTOWER.handleOnLogin); var _local1 = SHELL.getWorldCrumbs(); var _local2; var _local3; for (_local2 in _local1) { _local3 = _local1[_local2]; break; } SHELL.world_id_holder = _local3.id; AIRTOWER.server.connect(_local3.ip, _local3.port); } else { AIRTOWER.shell.$e("connectToLogin() -> Your already logged in! Cant login again"); } } AIRTOWER.handleLoginConnection = function(success) { if(success) { AIRTOWER.login(); } else { AIRTOWER.on_login_response(false); } } AIRTOWER.login = function() { AIRTOWER.server.login("w1", AIRTOWER.username, AIRTOWER.getLoginHash()); } AIRTOWER.handleOnLogin = function(obj) { AIRTOWER.removeListener(AIRTOWER.HANDLE_LOGIN, AIRTOWER.handleOnLogin); AIRTOWER.shell.setMyPlayerId(obj[1]); AIRTOWER.playerId = obj[1]; AIRTOWER.login_key = obj[2]; AIRTOWER.on_login_response(true); AIRTOWER.is_logged_in = true; SHELL.gotoState(SHELL.PLAY_STATE); } SHELL.connectToWorld = function() { var _local1 = SHELL.getWorldById(SHELL.world_id_holder); SHELL.showLoading((SHELL.getLocalizedString("Joining") + " ") + _local1.name); AIRTOWER.joinWorld(); } AIRTOWER.handleJoinWorld = function(obj) { AIRTOWER.removeListener(AIRTOWER.JOIN_WORLD, AIRTOWER.handleJoinWorld); var _local6 = Boolean(Number(obj[1])); var _local3 = Boolean(Number(obj[2])); var _local5 = Boolean(Number(obj[3])); var _local4 = Boolean(Number(obj[4])); AIRTOWER.on_world_response(true, _local6, _local3, _local5, _local4); AIRTOWER.on_world_response = undefined; } AIRTOWER.joinWorld = function() { AIRTOWER.server.onConnectionLost = Delegate.create(AIRTOWER, AIRTOWER.handleLostConnection); var _local2 = new Array(); _local2.push(AIRTOWER.playerId); _local2.push(AIRTOWER.login_key); _local2.push(AIRTOWER.shell.getLanguageAbbriviation()); if (AIRTOWER.isRedemption) { AIRTOWER.addListener(AIRTOWER.REDEMPTION_JOIN_WORLD, handleJoinRedemption, AIRTOWER); AIRTOWER.send(AIRTOWER.REDEMPTION, AIRTOWER.REDEMPTION_JOIN_WORLD, _local2, "str", -1); return(undefined); } AIRTOWER.on_world_response = SHELL.connectToWorldResponse; AIRTOWER.addListener(AIRTOWER.JOIN_WORLD, AIRTOWER.handleJoinWorld); AIRTOWER.send(AIRTOWER.PLAY_EXT, (AIRTOWER.NAVIGATION + "#") + AIRTOWER.JOIN_WORLD, _local2, "str", -1); } AIRTOWER.getLoginHash = function() { return SHA256.hash(AIRTOWER.password); } Now, since the way that the client authenticates is slightly different, your server will need to be modified to support it. In this case, I actually made mine use SHA256 hashing (thanks @Kevin) instead of MD5. There is also now no real need for a random key. Note you do not need to use SHA256 with this, it was just what I decided I wanted to use, if you want to go back to MD5, or use another authentication method entirely, you can do so by overriding 'AIRTOWER.getLoginHash'. With this code the client connects directly to the first localized world server in the world crumbs, performs the handshake, hashes the password and authenticates, then proceeds to get the players information. This is how the world server auth works: recv: <msg t='sys'><body action='verChk' r='0'><ver v='153' /></body></msg> send: <msg t='sys'><body action='apiOK' r='0'></body></msg> recv: <msg t='sys'><body action='login' r='0'><login z='w1'><nick><![CDATA[Ben_]]></nick><pword><![CDATA[SHA256]]></pword></login></body></msg> A couple of actionscript classes are required for this code to export, everything is zipped below, you'll also find a pre-exported version in there if you are happy to use mine. The SWF file goes in /play/v2/client/ of your media server, please add it to dependencies.json too: { boot: [ { id: 'airtower', title: 'Communication' }, { id: 'sentry', title: 'Communication' } ], login: [ { id: 'cookies', title: 'Login Screen' }, { id: 'login', title: 'Login Screen' } ], join: [ { id: 'engine', title: 'Engine' }, { id: 'interface', title: 'Interface' }, { id: 'gridview', title: 'Gridview' }, { id: 'mail', title: 'Mail' }, { id: 'book', title: 'Mail' }, { id: 'stampbook', title: 'StampBook' } ], create: [ { id: 'create', title: 'Create Penguin' } ], merch: [ { id: 'app', folder: 'merch/', title: 'Communication' } ] } End result: Please suggest improvements, specifically ways to improve the security, I'm sure this is pretty half-assed. Please ask if you're having troubles getting the server sided stuff to work. Works on only legacy private servers, not the new client, but could be easily ported. I'll do it if I ever find the time. cookies.zip

Hey everyone, I frequently see people struggling with disableing the domain locking, logging services, and client checks embedded into Club Penguin client files to prevent the files being used outside the http://clubpenguin.com domain. I have written a tool in Python to help aid the process of disabling these functions, whilst maintaining the crossdomain policies within the files which actually act as a security feature. import zlib import logging import argparse from os.path import isfile, isdir, splitext, join, exists, dirname from os import walk, makedirs from glob import glob if __name__ == "__main__": logger = logging.getLogger(__name__) logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO) parser = argparse.ArgumentParser(description="Club Penguin client tool") parser.add_argument("path", type=str, nargs="*", help="Path(s) to files or directories") parser.add_argument("-d", "--domain", type=str, help="The domain to use (ex. clubpenguin.com)") parser.add_argument("-r", "--recursive", action='store_true', help="Enables recursive mode") parser.add_argument("-o", "--output", type=str, help="Output directory") parser.add_argument("-D", "--dump", action='store_true', help="Dump decompressed FWS data") arguments = parser.parse_args() logger.info("This program can overwrite files on the disk, make sure to make backups before" + " running this script or make sure the output flag is enabled!") for path in arguments.path: if isfile(path): logger.info("Found \"%s\"", path) paths = [path] elif isdir(path): if not arguments.recursive: logger.warning("\"%s\" is a directory but recursion is disabled! skipping...", path) continue else: paths = [y for x in walk(path) for y in glob(join(x[0], '*.swf'))] for file in paths: logger.info("Found \"%s\"", file) filename, file_extension = splitext(file) if file_extension != ".swf": logger.warning("\"%s\" is not an SWF file! skipping...", path) continue logger.info("Opening \"%s\"", file) raw = open(file, "rb") signature = raw.read(3) logger.info("Reading file signature for \"%s\"", file) if signature != b"CWS": logger.warning("File has invalid signature, file sig should be 0x43 0x57 0x43(\"CWS\")") continue header = raw.read(5) data = raw.read() logger.info("Read %d bytes from \"%s\"", data.__sizeof__(), file) logger.info("Decompressing") decompressed_data = zlib.decompress(data) original_data = decompressed_data if b'\x00clubpenguin\x00boot\x00BootLoader' in decompressed_data: logger.info("Found a BootLoader, cracking client checks...") s = b'\x00logEvents\x00boot\x00BootL0ader' decompressed_data = decompressed_data.replace(b'\x00logEvents\x00boot\x00BootLoader', s) s = b'clubpenguin.c0m' decompressed_data = decompressed_data.replace(b'clubpenguin.com', s) if b'clubpenguin.com' in decompressed_data: logger.info("Found clubpenguin.com") s = bytes(arguments.domain.encode()) decompressed_data = decompressed_data.replace(b'clubpenguin.com', s) if b'disney.com' in decompressed_data: logger.info("Found disney.com") s = bytes(arguments.domain.encode()) decompressed_data = decompressed_data.replace(b'disney.com', s) if decompressed_data == original_data: logger.warning("No changes were made to the data!") continue logger.info("Re-compressing data and appending file signature and header") compressed = signature + header + zlib.compress(decompressed_data) if arguments.output: file = join(arguments.output, file) if not exists(dirname(file)): makedirs(dirname(file), exist_ok=True) if arguments.dump: dump = open(file + ".fws", "w") dump.write(str(decompressed_data)) dump.close() logger.info("Copied dump to \"%s\"", file + ".fws") logger.info("Writing data to \"%s\"", file) output = open(file, "wb") output.write(compressed) output.close() raw.close() logger.info("Finished. Goodbye!") If you know Python a little then you will probably be able to understand how the script works rather quickly, as it is rather simple. It decompresses the SWF files to expose some of the actionscript constants within the file (no, this script does not make use of SWF disassemblers like RABCasm which makes my script very lightweight and very fast) The script has a few flags, some of which are just useful, and some of which you'll probably want to use every single time you run it. $ py iceburg.py -h usage: iceburg.py [-h] [-d DOMAIN] [-r] [-o OUTPUT] [-D] [path [path ...]] Club Penguin client tool positional arguments: path Path(s) to files or directories optional arguments: -h, --help show this help message and exit -d DOMAIN, --domain DOMAIN The domain to use (ex. clubpenguin.com) -r, --recursive Enables recursive mode -o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT Output directory -D, --dump Dump decompressed FWS data Domain (required) tells the script which internet domain to replace security locks and logging services with. Recursive mode will make the script search through every directory below the path you specify for SWF files to check. Output changes the output directory, assuming the output directory is empty no files will be overwritten. Dump will make extra files containing the decompressed version of the data, useful for debugging purposes (for example if the script is making changes which break the SWF).

Seeing as a few people are having issues with getting games to work and games appearing as "white screen" when attempting to launch them, I've decided to fix the issue and release the base games for people. This will work with both AS2 and AS3 (AS3 has more games, this is only the base games which were originally available) Games included: Astro Barrier, Bean Counters, Puffle Launch (the game is server sided so you have to code the actual handlers in), Dance Contest, Ice Fishing, Hydro Hopper, Jetpack Adventures, Cart Surfer, MixMaster, Pizzatron, Puffle Rescue, Puffle Roundup, Aqua Grabber, Thin Ice, Catchin Waves and Tumblers. Instructions Go to your mediaserver and go to play/v2/content/global/ Replace your games folder with the one you're about to download, clear your cache and reload and then attempt to play games. Download Here You're welcome, let me know if this works for you.

I spent around two weeks writing numerous scripts to carry out tedious tasks. Minor files which weren't really documented anywhere I downloaded manually and that took the best part of four hours.

This looks amazing, nice contribution Jamie !

You're missing the dialogue for it. See if you can find a game_strings.json from the Frozen Party. If you find one, upload it. That should fix the error.

Really sorry about this. I'll look into fixing it ASAP.

Hey Solero! A while back I created a relatively large archive of SWF files for anybody to use. While it's not completely up to date at this point, it might still be of some use to some of you as it contains almost every available party, catalog and room from 2005 - 2013. It's also missing a few of the lost parties and catalogs that surfaced recently. Something is better than nothing, right? Download http://www.mediafire.com/file/6sj7ik0bxyt8hyb/The_Ultimate_Club_Penguin_SWF_Archive.rar It's a rather large file so it might take some time to download depending on your internet speed. I'm possibly going to update this in the future, but I don't exactly know when that will be. I hope you guys can make good use out of this!

I like them both
