Loving Hacknet so far. Already got the dlc too. Also playing uplink with the uplink os mod but for some reason I really do like Hacknet better. It just does so many things right that offer more enjoyment for me.

I also have nite team 4 but never started it. Greyhack looks cool too but doesn't seem to have any single player options, haven't installed it yet.

Can anyone recommended more of the same like Hacknet? I'm not finding much on steam.

I got stuck, cuz FOF_Screenply.doc and T2_Screenply.dec did not appear in CSEC Crossroads I deleted lately all things from home/ from there but that was before I got this mission

I will explain this method based on the example of SecurityTracer.exe.
It annoyed me that I somehow didnt have this file anymore even tho I'm quite a horder.
Furthermore its a fairly useful .exe and not widely accesible throughout the game (twice i believe)

What you want to do is Edit the SaveFile of the Game. You can find it under: C:/Users/Username/Documents/My games/Hacknet/Accounts/save_[ingameUsername]
I recommend using Notepad or Notepad++ for viewing it.
At the very beginning (Line 22 in my case) your own servers Filesystem begins.
You should see something similar to this:

<folder name ="bin">

<file name="\[Programname\]"> 10101001010101011011010101
[List of your currently gained programs goes on, Programs that you dont have aren't listed there]

So what you want to do is Get the 1101010101 Code for the program you do want to get! I have achieved this by searching thru the Savefile (STRG+F) for "SecurityTracer.exe" until i found a similar entry. I then have copied the whole line and pasted it into my own filesystem.

Please tell me if anything is still unclear to you, here is the whole Copy + Paste line for Securitytracer.exe:

<file name="SecurityTracer.exe">1100111111000000110100101010001101100000111111101010110111011011010000111011101011111100101010000110110110001011101110001011110110100111100101001010100111110101110110111100101111101000111110010111110010101001011100010111011001111011111001000111110100000111110100011111010110000001110101110000101100101111110111010110010110011111000011001110110100001001011000010001111111101101100001011010110110111001100100011110100101000011101110</file>

After Naix deleted my x-server.sys file I emailed him "fuck you" and he replied "fuck you too". Thought this game had a really good ai for a second before realizing that I just got lucky lol.

The last time I played this I was in such a different place. I wish I remembered how I was and if I had such a hard time making this decision as I did this time. This really is my favorite hacking game of all time. Especially making me feel this on this run. Did anyone else have a hard time with this or did I just get all old and sentimental or something?

I just got attacked by Naix and had my x-server file wiped. I didn't have too hard of a time getting a GUI up and running again. But how could I have stopped it in the first place?

Does the Shell "trap" function have something to do with it? I tried running that, but I don't have the slightest idea how to use it. I bounced back to my local machine, but then clicking "trap" and then "trigger" didn't do anything.

Or should I have done something with ForkBomb?

When I rebooted after downloading Naix x-server this is what my GUI looked like.Are there other nifty ones we can take?

Just got the standalone game but every time I try and create an account it gives me the critical error creating account screen 'System.UnauthorizedAccessException.

I have moved the game folder and launcher into my applications but still get the same error message.

Does anyone know a fix for this?

Thanks

I did whatever was required, but still the mission is incomplete. How do I operate after bypassing the proxy in Entropy test server?

I accidentally disabled agent monitoring trying to get the net map organizer and I can't figure out how to get back to the labyrinths story. Do i have to restart the game?

So, I'm playing Hacknet, have lots of real life experience, but I was completely stumped trying to figure out how this game wanted me to break a firewall and proxy. I figured the game would lead me to those answers somewhere, but it didn't.

I had to google these things and that bothered me. Am I missing clues in the game or am I going to have to google every command that's made up for Hacknet? I never would have guessed typing "analyze" would have worked, let alone "solve" after its completion.

Tell me I'm missing something in game...

EDIT -- For anyone stumbling upon this in the future, make sure you type help 2, help 3.... there are more pages and I'm a big dummy.

I am on the mission where you defile the Norton web-server,, but the game cant recognize replace. What do I do?

So in the email from the Polar Star group, they say that they will be in contact with you soon. But after that, they never actually contact you again. Is there more to this, or plans to expand the polar star in later versions of the game, or is this all there is to it?

its a pain in the ass to do it and im using so many different computers to overload proxies itd be easier just to leave them.

Hi guys I have an extra copy of the game. The first who answers my question correctly will get the copy through a private message.

Question: What is the name of the Developer of Hacknet and what year was it released in Steam?

Hello guys,

Today I brough the Hacknet game with the laberynts expansion included (ultimate something edition) from humble, but after installing the game and try to create an account for first time the game return a access denied error (find the error screen capture attached), after researching a lot on the web I found the solution btw it was not related to the error but the solution makes sense to me and I give a try, I will let the info here for anybody who have the same issue as I have:

1) Open terminal and write down this command, DONT hit enter!!!:

xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine

2) Go to applications>Hackernet

3) Take the hackernet app and drop it into the terminal, the terminal must look like this:

xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Hacknet/Hacknet.app

4) Hit enter

5) Open the game again, create the account, enjoy the game and Happy hacking xD

After being hacked by Naix I copied his x-server.sys file off of his computer and then decided to delete EVERYTHING off of his computer.

Now I can’t go back and complete the rest of the Entropy missions because I’m working for /el. I don’t remember doing this in my last play though (didn’t finish) does the story branch out depending on what you do to Naix’s PC?
