funman300 a93a8bcdd7 fifa17-recon: decouple contract suite from the Python implementation
test_fut_contract.py no longer imports ACCOUNT from fut_account. The expected
persona comes from FUT_TEST_PERSONA_ID and the target from FUT_TEST_BASE, so the
suite now imports nothing but stdlib and talks to a server at a URL.

That is what lets these 380 checks certify ANY implementation of the reversed
spec, a future Rust openfut-core included, without replaying the reverse
engineering. The original reason for reading ACCOUNT still holds and is preserved
in the comment: suite and server must not each hold a private copy of the
constant, or the identity-consistency checks would only prove two copies matched.

Also adds pileSizeClientData(0x227) behind FUT_PILESIZES (default off). A probe
run with 16 uniquely-valued entries did NOT move the MY CLUB counter, so that
member is eliminated as its source; the code is kept for the record and flagged
off.

Docs: OPENFUT_PROJECT_REPORT.md and OPENFUT_HANDOFF.md. The report now separates
"built but untested" from "never requested by the client" -- the server log records
User-Agent, and splitting real client traffic (ProtoHttp) from this project's own
probes shows /season, /tournament, /champion, /match, /clubUser and /user/list are
at ZERO client requests. /clubUser (0 client, 93 probe) and /user/list (0 client,
180 probe) are the starkest: work was done on both assuming the client wanted them.

OpenFUT

Offline Ultimate Team — like SPT, but for FIFA 23.

OpenFUT replaces EA's retired FUT servers with a fully offline, single-player backend. You own FIFA 23 legitimately. You just want to keep playing after EA shut down the servers.

Core is game-independent. It speaks a clean REST API and knows nothing about FIFA 23 internals.

Bridge is FIFA-specific. It speaks FIFA 23's wire protocol and translates it into Core API calls. Bridge is where all reverse engineering work happens.

Running

# Start the offline backend
cd openfut-core
cargo run

# Start the proxy (for traffic capture / FIFA integration)
cd openfut-bridge
cargo run

Core listens on http://127.0.0.1:8080 by default. Bridge listens on http://127.0.0.1:8443 by default.


Design Principles

  • Offline-first. No EA account required. No internet connection needed.
  • Single-player only. This is not a multiplayer server emulator.
  • Data-driven. All cards, packs, SBCs, and objectives are JSON files. Everything is moddable.
  • Clean architecture. Core has zero knowledge of FIFA 23. Bridge has zero game logic.
  • No copyrighted assets. No real player images, no EA trademarks in data files.

Disclaimer

This project is not affiliated with EA Sports. You must own FIFA 23 legitimately to use this software. This project does not bypass any ownership verification and is intended only to restore offline playability of a game whose online services have been retired.
