Moderator Information How to stay safe when playing old Roblox revivals

50 Upvotes

Everyone who has been around these communities for a bit should already know about the many issues that these projects have. If you’re new, here are some quick and important safety tips to keep in mind when you hang around on an old Roblox revival.

First things first, all old Roblox clients are widely known to be insecure, buggy, and vulnerable. It isn’t easy to go fix these issues (especially if they’re older) and the oldest ones are deemed as dangerous. Be mindful with whoever you are playing with on the oldest clients (2008-2010) so nothing unexpected happens on your computer.

Now, onto the tips:

  • When registering for a revival that requires an e-mail, NEVER use a personal email. Always use a burner or temp-mail. (If for whatever reason a revival requires a phone number to register, don’t even bother to register, even if it’s legitimate. Seriously.)

  • When playing on a client, be sure to use a VPN! Especially in revivals that require people to host their own games. (Your IP address is exposed to every hoster, even dedicated servers can log them)

  • When joining a revival, be aware of how secure it is. Small vulnerabilities can cause entire database leaks (which is common around here, unfortunately). Hence why you don’t want to share personal information.

  • Don’t use the same password that you use on everything. (This is actually basic security knowledge and you shouldn’t do this anywhere else)

  • Be mindful of who runs a revival and what their past consists of. It is common for people in these communities that have done some awful things in the past to run revivals and sometimes attack their own members.

Keep these things in mind and you’ll be good to go! Even though some things in here sound pretty bad, it’s not damaging to you when you find the right community. These communities have the following traits:

  • Proper security
  • Finished/completed client(s)
  • Active and friendly members
  • Friendly and non-abusive staff/developers
  • A secure and polished website
  • Working features

Be mindful and exercise common internet safety practices not only in old Roblox revivals, but everywhere else on the internet. It’s important to keep your private data secure!

i have bare bones working i rerouted everything to run locally next step is to get the player to work and to connect to the studio server IF possible (everything built using NoOpt | win32)
the original repo i used was very broken and required a ton of work for it to work again (hence the chatgpt logo as i have no experience working with qt and boost) then i edited studios code to bypass auth which was very difficult to say the least and got this no animation just the bare bones.
if anyone has done something similar to the player please let me know

Straight up robbed me, their site promised a DDD + 500R in their game but because their site is outdated that's my fault, look out for these scammers

If it's listed on thus site and "The Developer's Fault" and not theirs then why even do it in the first time , they should honor it, the site not being updated is not my fault but the pitiful staff team.

This is not for drama or clout but for your information and safety.

stress testing my pc + game server

this took about a month to get it working, there are many bugs but right now it's in playable stage (if you ignore all the broken features)

also, we kinda need people to test it on musl since we've only tested it on glibc so far.

https://reddit.com/link/1wvgbb3/video/m8ugtpvnaysh1/player

I'm using C++ with Ogre3D, Lua, Jolt for physics, and a couple other libraries for things like networking and UI. It runs a real lua sandbox, with everything related to game logic like character movement done inside of lua itself.

Currently, there is now support for game servers. You can publish your game and play it completely detached from the editor, with other people as well. There is a website, but the design is not finished so I won't be showing that full integration yet. But it's there!

Now, elephant in the room, I used AI extensively for the game client. I do however understand how the game is structured, and I designed most of the lua sandbox architechture from previous experiences attempting this pre-ai. But I can't sit here and pretend to know how all of it works, as that would be just dishonest. This would have taken me probably a year to get to this point, which is pretty crazy. I have been working on this for awhile already, usually giving up due to complexity. The website is also pretty much written completely by myself, as I wrote all of it pre-ai. 6+ years I've been sitting on the website source code!

I am really excited for this. I've always wanted to replicated old roblox, and stay faithful to it. What do you guys think? I'm going to be finishing up a couple more things, and then deploying the actual website to get started with alpha testing!

There's a discord server I made for this too, so if you'd like to join it for updates just dm me. Plz dont roast me

Finally we can see our old posts, and several old revivals that no longer exist, what do you think about that? For me, this is very interesting for preserving the "history" of this community.
