Need Help using Universal Extractor to Make file Usable for TriDef 3D..PLease help!

Ok, seems fairly straight-forward once you break it down:

1) Run "UniExtract.exe",and select the file you want to extract, "theHunter.2009072101.msi".
NOTE: The destination folder for the extracted files will be filled in automatically, or you can choose your own location.
2) It'll ask what method you want to use to extract the files, choose "MSI Administrative Installer".
3) Once the files are extracted, open the folder where you extracted the files, navigate to "theHunter.2009072101\PFiles\Emote\launcher"
4) right click on "launcher.exe", and create a shortcut to that file.
5) Log in to "thehunter.com" website. When you click "Hunt Now" using Internet Explorer, a window should pop up asking: "Do you want to allow this website to open a program on your computer?"
6) In this window, there's a link that looks similar to this: "address: emote://hunter/__PROFILE NUMBER HERE__/rpc.c001.thehunter.com/". Copy everything after "emote:"
NOTE: "__PROFILE NUMBER HERE__" will be your profile number.
7) Right click the shortcut you created in step 4, click "Properties".
8) In the "Target" field, append " -argv://hunter/__PROFILE NUMBER HERE__/rpc.c001.thehunter.com/" to the string, this is what you copied from step 6. Click apply.

So the shortcut's target field should now look similar to this:
C:\Users\%username%\Desktop\theHunter.2009072101\PFiles\Emote\launcher\launcher.exe -argv://hunter/__PROFILE NUMBER HERE__/rpc.c001.thehunter.com/

The folder path will be different depending on where you extracted the files in steps 1-2, and "__PROFILE NUMBER HERE__" will be replaced by your profile number.
If there are spaces in that folder path, it'll be encased in quotes, e.g: "C:\Program Files\Test\launcher.exe", in which case append " -argv:..." after the closing quote.
Also note the space immediately before "-argv:...".

If you're not using Internet Explorer, or just plain can't find that link you need, you'll have to hunt around, maybe your profile number shows up in the address field somewhere else on the website?

To play the game you apparently have to be logged in to your profile on the website, so make sure you do that before you run the shortcut.

Hope that helps.
Don't know anything about Tridef, but I guess you've got that covered.

I think what you're looking for can be found with a search for "theHunter.2009072101.msi" on duckduckgo.com.
Third link down is a Gamefront page with an old version, but if you click "The Hunter Files > Clients" link near the top of that page you'll get a short list of client versions you can download.

Well you might be able to unpack the new client.
UniExtract can't do everything, but you might as well give it a shot trying out the different extraction methods (There's 3, I think).
If you find one that works, just find the launcher file in the extracted folder and carry on from there.
If not I think you're out of luck.
Can't really help any more than that I'm afraid.

EDIT:
The trouble is if the game's been overhauled, most of those steps in my first post will be useless. You'd have to click the web link to start the game, and monitor everything it's doing behind the scenes, what file it's calling, the link it's using, and any arguments it's adding in there.

I don't know anything about Tridef, but you *could* try creating a batch script to call the web link to start the game, and convert that to an .exe file.
I could be talking out of my backside with that suggestion, but it's all I've got!

OK, I'm no expert here, I've only written a few simple scripts to launch programs in sequence, make them portable etc.

But as a basic guide, create a new text document, rename it batch_test.bat, drop the .txt suffix.
Now right-click > Edit that file, it'll bring up notepad. Write your script here, then save it and click the file to run.
A basic script to launch a webpage would be:

@ECHO OFF
START "Title" /b "C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" www.bbc.co.uk

"Title" can be whatever you want.
The "/b" switch tells it not to open a new window.
Replace Firefox with your browser of choice.
Put the web link at the end, in place of bbc.co.uk.
(@ECHO OFF tells it not to display any of the following lines in the cmd window. Remove that line and use /WAIT after START to see what's happening with your script.)

As I said I'm no expert, so Tridef may well hate that method. You may have to get quite creative!

Anyway, here's a load of commands and their switches you could play around with:

To convert the .bat file, I use Bat To Exe Converter 1.4.
Good luck!

Hmm, maybe the launcher's looking for something, session cookies, referrer link, something like that?
OTOH, maybe you could find out what file the launcher.exe is running when you click play, and intercept it somehow. This wouldn't work if there's any sort of DRM checks, but you could replace the file it's calling with one of your own, and use yours to start the original file to start the game.

i.e:
-Go to website, click play.
-Launcher comes up, click play.
-Launcher calls .exe file that you've made.
-Your .exe file calls Tridef.
-Tridef runs the game.

I don't know the structure of the game, so I have no idea whether that'd work, but it might give you some ideas.

EDIT:
One last shot.
Have you tried appending the new link to the shortcut?
So in step 8 of my first post, use:
-argv://gameserver.thehunter.com/73e3ae05203317dad3deadf8020e83e9812804d6/lang/en_US/access_token/af3531644453d40070c0c465a46fc342b2c6c55f/refresh_token/0c36db2f493a3a1223f5810d6cf8dc9ca4feb789

In place of:
-argv://hunter/__PROFILE NUMBER HERE__/rpc.c001.thehunter.com/

in the target field of the shortcut.
The only thing is that it looks like that link was randomly generated for that session, so it might not work forever.
Also, I think the original post you linked to mentioned not using the installed launcher for that method, but you never know.
