Yes, it's rude. But it's the truth (my guide bad too, btw). I did not say anything about you or anyone especially, but I reading many topics on another forum and found out that just a few topics are written not well (tutorials only I mean). Even for example just GitHub wiki pages for both emulators, it's so big pain to follow/understand/do... I think the guys who wrote it, even not tried to follow their guides at all. I tried, and can admit = they are wrong, and can be changed (when will have free time, and if my PR will not be rejected, I can change it)
This what I tried to do with the offline pack, just throw newbies in water, not drive them through links for days \ for months in search of water.
When you have everything ready and working, it's much easier for you to navigate the rest, do experiments, break everything, destroy everything, then start again, and again, and again, by doing many many many mistakes which learn more, then any guides posted on any forum.
Yea, because I'm busy right now. Not sure if "something new" better. I checking github every signle day and read commits, changes, and I think after changing map flags, and touching other staff, rathena not stable at all right now, and have much more bugs, then before these changes. So 07 July 2018 = old, but not so bad.
false =)
How to update all components = explained. All tools included too.
In short if it's something about emulator:
run cmder
git pull origin
install VS 2017 (select C++)
Open rAthena.sln (must be opened in VS 2017)
Right click on rAthena Solution -> Retarget Solution -> OK
Press CTRL+B
Optionally if were changes related to sql: run OpenServer -> Click On it -> Phpmyadmin -> login to it -> select database -> import -> import update to your db.
done, emulator update done, for all of this usually need not more then 3-5 mins.
If rathena wouldn't be crazy and wouldn't use YAML, which is absolutely incompatible with many compilers properly without a lot of issues (i like hercules over rAthena because of such small issues) (they know what we're talking about), I'd also can deliver a portable compiler (250MB) for compiling the emulator, which would immediately help and compile the emulator and apply the necessary sql Updates (if necessary)
So it's easy too.
But again, i have nothing against your, or anyone else guides, if you write it = write, many people will find them useful.
If you can, please edit Images in your topic, because right now they looks like:
