Forcing HTTPS for Default Client

[TheRussianB]

I'm trying to export my map data with the new import/export feature Loftar introduced into the default client so that I can clear my cache. I've primarily been using Amber and Purus client. From what I understand, Amber uses HTTPS for resfiles and so map data ends up being stored in a different cache than if you were to use HTTP. Whenever I open the default client, I don't see any of my usual map data so I'm assuming it is not using HTTPS (unless default and custom clients store map data in different spots regardless of HTTP/HTTPS).

Is there any way to force the default client to use HTTPS so that I can export and import my map data? I've tried copying the custom JVM args Purus gives when you click "Use HTTPS for resfiles (amber maps)" like this:
But I simply get this error:
.

The specific problem you're having is that you're trying to pass the resource-URL argument to the launcher, rather than the client itself. If you want to change the launch parameters, I'd recommend downloading the actual launch file, modify it, and run the launcher on that modified file. Note, however, that it is the haven.mapbase property that you'll want to change for this, rather than the resource URL.

Thanks for the response! How would I specify the modified hafen.hl file as a command line argument?

Simply specify it with an argument, eg. java -jar autohaven.jar my-hafen.hl

Simply specify it with an argument, eg. java -jar autohaven.jar my-hafen.hl

I was trying that but was getting this exception. This occurred with both a modified and unmodified version of hafen.hl.

Hmm, right, the launch file uses relative URLs. You probably need to manually "absolutify" them. It should probably be something like this:

Code: Select all

require 1.0

validate tls-cert:key:rsa:99118FA7C13D9686021FFDB74F8FFE77CA5EB7D356A8D31BB907A31AFAE04D46

Your example looks correctly "absolutified", but I'm still getting the same exception. Would the URLs in jogl.hl also have to be absolutified?

[loftar]

Would the URLs in jogl.hl also have to be absolutified?

I don't think so. As long as it's loaded from that URL, it should work correctly.

[TheRussianB]

I don't think so. As long as it's loaded from that URL, it should work correctly.

Yeah still not working

Anyways, thanks for taking a look. I'll keep poking around to see if I can get it to work.

Edit: Absolutified splash.gif but still same exception

[loftar]

Uh, right, sorry, the command-line argument needs to be a URL, not a filename. It might work if you use file://my-hafen.hl
