An unofficial community client for theHunter Classic
Classic Reserve Project
The official servers close on 11 November 2026. This project lets you keep hunting on your own copy of the game: the server the game needs runs inside the game itself.
Before 11 November: prepare yourself
Save your account and the game's pictures and texts before the official servers go out – one program, one button.
What it does
- Single player in all 12 reserves without any server of the publisher: persistent inventory, store for gm$, trophy scores, statistics, achievements.
- Multiplayer with friends: host a game and it appears in the list of open games, or pass an invite code for a direct connection.
- The game's 18 languages. Your account can be saved from the official site before the shutdown and loaded into the client.
What you need
- Your own installed copy of theHunter Classic (the Steam version) on Windows.
- A copy of the game folder made by you. The client is installed into the copy; your Steam installation stays untouched.
- We do not distribute the game or any of its files, texts or pictures. The client reads them from your own copy.

Leaderboards
Score and range come from hunts played on the community server (sandbox hunts and the harvests of a transferred account do not count); the hunter score also carries over from a transferred account.
Privacy
- This site uses no cookies and no tracking.
- The web server keeps an access log with IP addresses for 14 days, to keep the server running.
- A game you host through the community server is listed with your player name, the reserve and the number of players for as long as you host it; the entry disappears within 90 seconds after you stop.
- An account keeps your e-mail address (for logging in and password resets only), your player name, a salted hash of your password and your gm$. You can delete the account in the game or on this site at any time.
- A download of the client is recorded with the account, the version and the time. The record is kept for up to 90 days after the account is deleted.
- For each hunt on an account save the server keeps when it was, how long it lasted and what was harvested – for the statistics and the leaderboards.
- A zip of a saved official account uploaded here or in the game is kept with the account (compressed), so that what cannot be brought over today can be added later. It is deleted with the account.
