Hello,
For some reason, I decided to write my own guide for super newbie people. And when I say newbie, I say REAL newbie. I will not ask you to learn anything or saying rude things like "go google ffs".
I believe people that want to create their server are not necessary interested being a linux master or whatever. Never people are saying that before leaning guitar, people should learn how string and guitar are made.
Enough talk, lets start !
Prerequisites
Patience, meticulousness, cogitation
kRO full client: Mirror #1 (mediafire), Mirror #2 (Direct Link from my ftp)
kRO last actual compatible exe: Mirror #1 (mega.nz), Mirror #2 (Direct Link from my ftp)
Setup exe: Download (Page), Mirror #1 (Direct Link from my ftp)
N.E.M.O. Diff Patcher Download (git)
BGM parameter files. Download (Direct Link herc.ws), Mirror #1 (Direct Link from my ftp)
Translation Package. Download (git)
Putty: Download (Page)
If Putty does not work, use Kitty Download (Page)
1~2 hours of your time
Things you should know:
You cannot see password in Putty / Kitty when you type it.
nano is a text editor. At the bottom of the screen you can see a menu. To use it, press CTRL + the option's letter
You cannot use numeric pad in nano
Being polite is always rewarding
I. Dedicated server
A. Get your server
You can find very cheap solution at Kimsufi. Choose anything you want. I recommend you to choose Debian 8 (Jessie) for your OS. In Kimsufi manager, you will find your server IP. You have your login (root) and password in an email after installing the OS
B. Configure your server
Start Putty and enter server's IP address Connect with root then type the password you got by email. (You wont see " * " when you type) To change your password enter the following line
passwd Install required package by enter this (copy this and paste it with a right-click):
apt-get install git make gcc mysql-server libmysqlclient-dev zlib1g-dev libpcre3-dev screen
The following is meant to make a web server. Even if you don't plan to make a website, I suggest you to take it, just because phpmyadmin is easy to use. While installing phpmyadmin, select apache2.
apt-get install apache2
apt-get install php5 php5-cli libapache2-mod-php5 php5-mysql apt-get install phpmyadmin ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/html/ Because hercules doesn't work if you use root login, we will create a new user.
useradd ragnarok
passwd ragnarok [choose_a_password] Connect to phpmyadmin and login with the information you chose at this address: http://your_server_ip/phpmyadmin
Create a new database ragnarok and choose utf8_unicode_ci as collation Create another database and name it ragnarok_log with same collation Click on the tab Users (top of the page), Add User and fill the form. Username: ragnarok, password: [choose_a_assword], Click on Check All in the privilege group. (or if you know what are you doing, select options you need)
Now you can log out from your server in Putty
logout
C. Install Hercules
Login again in Kitty with the new user ragnarok Download Hercules emulator
git clone https://github.com/HerculesWS/Hercules.git ~/Hercules We will need to reach the database installation folder:
cd Hercules/sql-files/ We will now import tables in the database. You will have to write your mysql password each time (set in step B.4).
mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < main.sql
mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok_log < logs.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db2.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db2.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db2.sql if you want to make a PRE-RENEWAL server, enter also this
mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db.sql
mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db.sql If you want to make a RENEWAL server:
mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db_re.sql
mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db_re.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db_re.sql
D. Configure hercules
It is required to set up a server login and password for char-server, map-server and the login database. It can be done by editing few files and the table login. Start by editing conf/inter-server.conf.
cd ../
nano conf/inter-server.conf Find the line sql.db_username and fill it with the user and password we created in step B.10. fill also the database name with ragnarok
As the same time, you will need to edit conf/import/inter_conf.txt. nano conf/import/inter_conf.txt
sql.db_username: ragnarok sql.db_password: your_sql_password sql.db_database: ragnarok log_db_id: ragnarok log_db_pw: your_sql_password log_db_db: ragnarok_log now edit conf/import/char_conf.txt and fill it with this following text nano conf/import/char_conf.txt
// Server Communication username and password.
userid: [new user]
passwd: [new password] Do the same to conf/import/map_conf.txt with the same userid and passwd. nano conf/import/map_conf.txt
// Server Communication username and password. userid: [new user]
passwd: [new password]
You will need to update the login table from ragnarok database. Connect again to your phpmyadmin (I.B.7) Find the table login and edit the only row available.
userid must have the same value as [new user]
user_pass must have the same value as [new password]
char-server.conf nano conf/char-server.conf
server_name: [your_server_name] wisp_server_name: Admin For some reason, you must reboot your server. reboot Close the Terminal and connect again after a minute. Now you will need to work on your server ports iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 6900 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 5121 -j ACCEPT iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 6121 -j ACCEPT
iptables save
We are done with the server for now. You can log out if you want. Lets prepare our client!
II. Create the Client
A. Organization
Extract the full client in C:\ro_client\RO\ and launch update with rsu-kro-renewal-lite.exe or rsu-kro-rag-lite.exe if you set a pre-re server. Extract the Ragexe.exe in C:\ro_client\fresh\
Extract data and System folders from the translation Package in C:\ro_client\fresh\
Extract the opensetup.exe in C:\ro_client\fresh\
Extract Mssfast.m3d and Mp3dec.asi from BGM.zip in C:\ro_client\fresh\
Extract N.E.M.O. content in C:\ro_client\NEMO\
Once Step 1 is DONE: Copy All *.dll and *.INI files from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\
Copy BGM and savedata folders from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\
Copy rdata.grf and data.grf files from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\
B. Configure the Client
Launch N.E.M.O. and load 2015-05-13aRagexe.exe
Hit "Select Recommended" Confirm DATA.INI Rename iteminfo.lub to iteminfo_n.lub
Now search "Read Data Folder First" and check it Hit "Apply Selected" and you will have a new 2015-05-13aRagexe_patched.exe file. You should "Save Profile" now, because you will probably want to edit again your client later
C. Add the translation
Rename C:\ro_client\fresh\System\itemInfo.lub to iteminfo_n.lub
You might need to rename C:\ro_client\fresh\data\texture\À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º\ folder to 유저인터페이스 later, but for now, just skip this step (not sure if you encounter this problem).
Open C:\ro_client\fresh\data\clientinfo.xml with a text editor (I recommend Notepad++) Update the address with your server IP
<address>[ip_address]</address> Done with the translation. Now we will say to the server, which client players are using.
III. Finish Server configuration
A. Compile the server
Launch Putty again and login to your server. We will compile Hercules. It will take time so be patient.
cd ./Hercules
./configure --enable-packetver=20150513 make clean make sql once it is done, you can verify if the version has been properly set.
nano src/common/mmo.h Find following lines #ifndef PACKETVER #define PACKETVER Change #define PACKETVER to #define PACKETVER 20150513 if not done yet.
If you did change something in mmo.h, you need to recompile again. Process again the step III.A.1
B. Start the server
To start the server, you simply need the following line (while being in Hercules folder)
./athena-start start
IV. Player Side
A. Create a Game Master Account
Go to your phpmyadmin (step I.B.7) and find again the login table. Hit the Insert tab userid: [login_nickname]
user_pass: [login_pass]
group_id: 99
gender: M or F
You have now your Game Master Account
B. Play
Launch C:\ro_client\fresh\2015-05-13aRagexe_patched.exe
Login with your newly created game master account Process thru in game. type @go 0 Be happy.
V. Customize
A. Back to the N.E.M.O.
This Diff patcher is really cool, be aware of that. You can now edit again your client. repeat the step II.B.1 Hit "Load Profile" and choose the previous file you created in step II.B.7 Check the list and hit option you want. repeat step II.B.6 and 7
B. Options & Fix
Remove the Pin Secure Code Be sure to always be in Hercules folder ( cd ./Hercules)
./athena-start stop
nano conf/import/char_conf.txt
add this line: pincode_enabled: 0 process to step III.A.1 To edit clientinfo.xml, I suggest you to check the wiki page
if you can't see in game button Rename C:\ro_client\fresh\data\texture\À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º to 유저인터페이스
Get Unbollox: Download (Download Page), Mirror #1 (Direct Link from my ftp) In unbollox, select the texture folder and click on À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º
Changing starting point
nano conf/import/char_conf.txt
add start_point_re: prt_fild08,170,365
Changing starting items
nano conf/import/char_conf.txt
add start_items: 2393,1,0,5055,1,0,569,20,1

unidentifiedResourceName = "my_custom_item", //This will set the sprite you will use (ex: my_custom_item.spr / actmy_custom_item.act)
unidentifiedDescriptionName = { "Unknown Item, can be identified by using a ^6666CCMagnifier^000000." }, //Or basically juste { }, if it is not an equipment.
identifiedDisplayName = "My custom Item", identifiedResourceName = "my_custom_item",
identifiedDescriptionName = { "Bleh this item is a custom item.", "Bleh this is a second line" }, // Description of your item.
