How to Return IP Address

[vahnx]

How do you return the IP address of a player?

 

The below will get a player name but I want the IP address they are connected from.

 

NATIVE_GET_PLAYER_NAME = 0x406b4b20

any connection to a webserver will expose the ip

It's rockstars servers though so I'm unsure I'd go about doing that. I started a game and want to see the IP address of a player when they join.

I think that will not be possible.

It's very possible. The game is connecting to a sever, which WILL list your IP address. Infact, Websites list that information if you view them. Ports are sort of being like a gate for your IP to enter/leave with. If you're going to do this, it might be a good idea to have the mod create a .txt/.ini that shows their username and IP.

It is easy to get IP addresses of players IN GTA4/EFLC but it is harder to say who's IP is who - obviously if there is only one other player in the game then you can match them up and once you have one and another player joins, you know theirs too.

 

I know most of the players IP addresses

You can use any network monitor program like PeerBlock, WireShark, or my favorite, WPE Pro.

You wont see the names though, unless you match them yourself like Krypto sais. could be possible to make a scrip which scans for new IPs when new players join, and match them automaticly, but would be a lot of trouble for some naughty not so important stuff
