Hello,   Just want to share my Hercules Userbar, you can use this userbar if you want.  

Official Item Group/Package/Chain
 
Overview
Implementation of the official 'Item Packages', 'Item Group' redesign, 'Item Chain' implementation. item_group.conf : Overview / Sample
The file was redesigned to make it attend the official equivalent's and to be more flexible, there are no more limitations on the number of groups or on how many items a group may contain, these limitations were lifted. Old_Card_Album: ( // <= <Container_Item_Name>     ("Poring_Card",8), // <= entries can be either ( "<Item_Name>", <Repeat_Count> )     "Sting_Card" // <= or "<Item_Name>" (no repeat) ) item_packages.conf : Overview / Sample
The file was created to meet the requirements of the official 'Package Item' feature, there are no limitations on how many packages you may add either. Gift_Bundle: { // <= <Container_Item_Name>     White_Slim_Potion: {// <= <Entry_Item_Name>         Random: false //May be omit when not false, signs whether a item is random or should be given whenever the packageis consumed.         Count: 30 //May be omit when not higher than 1, stands for how many <White_Slim_Potion>     }     Muffler_: {         Expire: 2 //May be omit when none, signs how many hours this item will last (makes a rental item)         Announce: True //May be omit when false, signs whether to relay a special item obtain announce when this item comes out of the package.         Rate: 50 //May be omit when 'Random' is false, from 1 to 10000 (0.01% - 100%)         Named: True //May be omit when false, signs whether the item should have the owner's name in it.     } } item_chain.conf : Overview
Officially this thing is called groups too but I found it'd be confuse to have 2 group files with entirely different functionality, named chains because the items in it are chained to each other, this file fixes quite a few stuff, for example before this patch having BS_FINDINGORE drop something was almost twice as rare than on official servers, also fixes Jewel_Sword, Gaia_Sword, Blazzer_Card, Tengu_Card and Bogy_Horn. New
'packageitem' script command, it has only 1 param which is optional, for the package item id, when not provided it'll try to use the item id from the item it is being used from (if called from an item script), it runs a item package and grants the items accordingly to the attached player. Changes
'#define MAX_RANDITEM' and '#define MAX_ITEMGROUP' were dropped, these limitations no longer exist and the server may support an unlimited number of item groups. 'item_findingore.txt' was dropped, its contents moved into 'item_chain.conf' 'item_bluebox.txt', 'item_cardalbum.txt', 'item_giftbox.txt', 'item_misc.txt', 'item_violetbox.txt' and 'item_group_db.txt' were dropped, its contents moved were updated and moved into 'item_group.conf' 'bonus2 bAddItemHealRate' changed; as group ids no longer exist. 'bAddMonsterDropItemGroup' was renamed to 'bAddMonsterDropChainItem' and changed from bonus 2/3 to bonus (0)/2 as the rate param was dropped because item chains have their own individual rates. Item names are now automatically made constants, so they may be used in any scripts throughout the server e.g. 'getitem Apple,1;', this works for all items except those having ' in their names (e.g. doesn't work for 'Monster's_Feed'). 'getrandgroupitem' and 'grouprandomitem' were modified since group ids no longer exist, item ids should be used instead (or constants as the item above mentions), e.g. 'getrandgroupitem Old_Blue_Box,1;' or 'getrandgroupitem 603,1;' Dropped conf/battle/drops.conf 'finding_ore_rate' for it has no place in the official formula (if you'd like to modify finding ore rates, edit them via item_chain.conf) Special Thanks
Beret and hemagx for bringing this change up to discussion, and the data they contributed into it Yommy and Muad_Dib for all the new item data implemented in this commit (a hell of stuff! THANK YOU BOTH <3) Streusel for all the over 100 new items he converted Gepard for the group item repeat info Masao for his debugging of the monster spawn issue Mysterious for updating the documentation Link~u!

é pq a maneira como stat tem efeito na duração foi atualizada ( vc pode fazer isso funcionar de volta editando o src/map/status.c status_get_sc_def )

Skill Tree DB Redesign
Hello~! - What?!
The file has been completely overwritten, the redesign achieves 2 goals: make it easier for us to update the file and for our users to customise it. skill_db.conf format : sample
Swordsman: { inherit: ( "Novice" ); skills: { SM_SWORD: 10 SM_TWOHAND: { MaxLevel: 10 SM_SWORD: 1 } SM_RECOVERY: 10 SM_BASH: 10 SM_PROVOKE: 10 SM_MAGNUM: { MaxLevel: 10 SM_BASH: 5 } SM_ENDURE: { MaxLevel: 10 SM_PROVOKE: 5 } SM_MOVINGRECOVERY: 1 SM_FATALBLOW: 1 SM_AUTOBERSERK: 1 } } Knight: { inherit: ( "Swordsman" ); skills: { KN_SPEARMASTERY: 10 KN_PIERCE: { MaxLevel: 10 KN_SPEARMASTERY: 1 } KN_BRANDISHSPEAR: { MaxLevel: 10 KN_RIDING: 1 KN_SPEARSTAB: 3 } KN_SPEARSTAB: { MaxLevel: 10 KN_PIERCE: 5 } KN_SPEARBOOMERANG: { MaxLevel: 5 KN_PIERCE: 3 } KN_TWOHANDQUICKEN: { MaxLevel: 10 SM_TWOHAND: 1 } KN_AUTOCOUNTER: { MaxLevel: 5 SM_TWOHAND: 1 } KN_BOWLINGBASH: { MaxLevel: 10 SM_BASH: 10 SM_MAGNUM: 3 SM_TWOHAND: 5 KN_TWOHANDQUICKEN: 10 KN_AUTOCOUNTER: 5 } KN_RIDING: { MaxLevel: 1 SM_ENDURE: 1 } KN_CAVALIERMASTERY: { MaxLevel: 5 KN_RIDING: 1 } KN_CHARGEATK: 1 KN_ONEHAND: { MaxLevel: 1 KN_TWOHANDQUICKEN: 10 } } } Main Design Benefit
Skills and its requirements are now per job instead of per class id, so there are no duplicates -- for example in the previous format if wanted to modify, say, the max level of SM_MAGNUM you'd need to edit its 31 entries, in the new format there are only 2 entries (one in swordsman, other in super novice) Credits

■ Inspection Time
 
- Main servers: 02:30 to 06:30 (Spain time, GMT+1 plus DST correction)
- Sakray: 02:30 to 09:30 (Spain time)
 
Common Patch:
(Nothing)
 
Mains Servers:
 
- All items from treasures which effect were only applied on WoE TE castles will be modified so that you can't use them on those maps. [!]
- Bank System added.
-> The new bank system is a system made for the user for depositing his zenies.
-> This bank system is not made for a character only, it's a common fund for all characters on the same account.
(05:29 Spain Time: Implementation of this system is postponed. There'll be a notification when this gets implemented again)
- Genetic Skill Modified: Level 5 [Fire Expansion] skill effect (Acid Demonstration) will be modified to apply new Acid Demonstration effect, old effect will be no longer applied.
- Success chance of using a "Buff" skill on some monsters has been modified.

-  A new NPC has been added in Paradise Group. This NPC multiplies your job by 1.05 for 30 minutes, restores all your HP/SP and deletes delay for main servers instances only once.
 
** Ziu note: This is due to a failure with lubs (attempt call a nil value) that lots of Hercules and rAthena users have experienced when messing with client-side. This could only happen to Gravity.
 
Translator notes: there may be some incorrections. The [!] marked sentence means I couldn't fully understand this one in Spanish. As a comment, if that text was correct in Spanish it wouldn't make any sense if you couldn't use those items (which have effect) at all.
 
Big thanks to Ziu for taking the original text patch and translating it to Spanish.
Thanks to jaBote for the translation.

New card illustrations, credits to Ziu for providing them.

either request at rAthena to convert it, or change to using Hercules
 
Hercules devs will not create this for rAthena o_O

Hercules WPE Free - June 14th Patch
 
Made Possible Thanks to Yommy
We're only able to provide you with this feature thanks to Yommy, Thank you very much! WPE Free - Official Packet Obfuscation Support Packet spamming is no longer possible by normal means, with this feature each packet sent has its own id, so spamming (by sending the same packet more than once) is impossible. For this feature to function you MUST NOT use the 'disable packet obfuscation' client diff. conf/battle/client.conf
// Whether to enable the official packet obfuscation support (good vs WPE)// 0: disabled// 1: optional (not recommended) -- identifies whether it is required// 2: enabled (recommended)packet_obfuscation: <value>
Currently functional for over 44 clients (Thanks to Shakto!): 2011-08-17 - 2015-05-13 Special Thanks to Yommy ..Yommy ...The all-awesome Yommy~! Thank you again! Shakto for the 44 PacketKeys! Also - SQL DB Updates & DB2SQL For logical and performance reasons we've modified the structure of the renewal item db tables, atk and matk no longer share the same column, equip_level was replaced by equip_level_min so that we could add equip_level_max which is required by new renewal items. Note however that because of the previous atk:matk format, it was not possible to provide a upgrade file that would save the matk data Item script errors from sql dbs used to point to a inexistent line number, it was modified to display the item id instead. This update has shrunk the sizes of the item db .sql files, making it possible for tools such as phpmyadmin to parse them, once again. With this patch we're also introducing a new official plugin, db2sql, its purpose is to make it easier for our developers to keep the .sql db files up to date (but you may use that to convert your own if you so desire, too), to use this plugin (when it is enabled in plugins.conf) type server tools db2sql in the console. Link~u! Commit 1 Commit 2

Ragnarok Online Launcher eXecutable (R.O.L.eX)

Info:
I started learning C# + .net and I thought why not create a client launcher and "kill 2 birds with 1 stone
and here is the result.I chose the name cuz well who doesn't like rolexes 
Screenshots:
Default Look

 
With BG

 
Features:
1) Configurable Window Title & Background (I am also planning to make buttons also configurable in future) 2) Settings button - invokes setup.exe (the file name is configurable within the ini file) 3) Register button - you can specify the website for registration in the ini file 4) Once you press Login Button (or press Enter) the Launcher minimizes to the background   and rises back if the Client gets closed (Useful especially when you press cancel button during initial screens) 5) Starts updater before you log in to ensure RO folder is updated (can be turned off from ini file). Filename of the updater as well as   Minimum No of days (default is 1) before next update can also be specified. - Credits to Shakto for the idea   Download Link:

EDIT:
Second version built for .NET 2.0 using WinForms - aka "Lazy Version"
(I still believe its far better to go for .NET 4.0 - you can include the installer for .NET along with your client installer when you provide it to players).

Let me know if you have any suggestions or face any issues with either version   (Flicker appearing in the LQ version cannot be avoided).
 
EDIT 2:
Planned Updates:
1) Skinnable Buttons & Customizable Button Locations.
2) Editable Names for Buttons + Labels.
3) Inbuilt Official & Private GRF Patcher.
 
EDIT 3:
Discontinued Further Updates since many are too lazy to get .NET 4 or their OS don't support it.

Regardless all the fancy features in it, this patch's greatest achievement is smart, clever employment of memory, by looking at our memory usage wisely we've been able to reduce map-server's memory (RAM) usage by more than 2/3, about 183MB of RAM were dropped, while maintaining Hercules outstanding record on performance improvement. Beyond the memory usage drop there is also a significant processing speed improvement which can be noticed during boot, map cache loading which used to account for most of the map-servers boot time no longer exists, its gone, dead, fini, boom! it was replaced by a smart map cache handler that loads its data only when a map is necessary (the data is then kept until shut down), this logic also makes map-server's shut down process a hell lot faster.
 
Instance Rework
As suggested by the community, this wasnt supposed to be bundled with this commit but the memory usage improvements required me to modify how instances were stored, so I re-wrote part of it to fit the suggestion as well.
Instance Functionality/Feature Server may now create instances of any maps regardless of client-side edits, e.g. one can clone prontera and call it "mymapname" (as is best described in the *instance_attachmap script command note) Instances may now be available in 4 distinct ways (as is best described in *instance_create script command note), by nobody (server type instance, to be used with special map names), by a sole character, by a party, or by a guild Script Command Changes *instance_create 2nd param is now called owner_id instead of party_id, and it got a 3rd optional param that defines what kind of owner id it is (when not provided, assumes party_id, for backwards compatibility), available options are (IOT_ stands for INSTANCE OWNER TYPE) IOT_NONE (0), IOT_CHAR (1), IOT_PARTY (2) and IOT_GUILD (3). *instance_destroy no longer autodetects instance id from party id *instance_attachmap now supports a 4th, optional, param, "<new map name>", it will allow you to specify a entirely new map name for the instance (without the need of client-side edits). This option can be best employed when used on a instance of <owner_type> IOT_NONE *instance_detachmap no longer autodetects instance id from party id *instance_id no longer supports any param *instance_set_timeout no longer autodetects instance id from party id *instance_announce no longer autodetects instance id from party id, and to tell it to autodetect from the attached script you must set instance_id param as -1 as opposed to 0 *instance_npcname no longer autodetects instance id from party id *has_instance no longer autodetects instance from party, however it now checks if attached player possesses a instance with same map as has_instance(<param>) checks for *instance_warpall no longer autodetects instance from party Other ChangesInstance IDs (valid ones) are now always >= 0 as opposed to > 0 (update your scripts!) Battlegrounds Queue
As suggested by the community, most of its features were added in this patch, we were unable to finish it though because we lacked some information, we've put our questions in this topic, once our questions are answered we should be able to finish it in a matter of minutes (all the heavy lifting was done in this patch).
Arenas They're easily configurable in the new conf/battlegrounds.conf file, it possible to add more arenas by editing the client's lua files/entryqueue/entryqueuelist.lua file Configuration Sample arenas: ({    name: "Tierra Gorge" //must match the name in client files    event: "Tierra_BG2::OnPlayerListReady"    minLevel: 80    maxLevel: 150    reward: {/* amount of badges awarded on each case */        win: 3        loss: 1        draw: 1    }    minPlayers: 6 /* minimum amount of players to start */    maxPlayers: 60 /* maximum amount of players */    minTeamPlayers: 6 /* minimum amount of team members required for a team (party or guild) to join */    delay_var: "Tierra_BG_Tick" /* npc variable name that will store the delay for this match */    maxDuration: 30 /* maximum duration in minutes, if reached game ends and highest score wins (or calls a draw if scores are equal) */},{    name: "KVM (Level 59 and below)" //must match the name in client files    event: "KvM03_BG::OnPlayerListReady"    minLevel: 1    maxLevel: 59    reward: {/* amount of badges awarded on each case */        win: 1        loss: 0        draw: 0    }    minPlayers: 4 /* minimum amount of players to start */    maxPlayers: 60 /* maximum amount of players */    minTeamPlayers: 5 /* minimum amount of team members required for a team (party or guild) to join */    delay_var: "KVM_BG_Tick" /* npc variable name that will store the delay for this match */    maxDuration: 30 /* maximum duration in minutes, if reached game ends and highest score wins (or calls a draw if scores are equal) */}) QueueWe wanted to make the queue as easy to play with as possible, so we've created a whole new set of script commands designed with this purpose. These commands make it easy to create and control queues for anything, games, events, quests, and of course in this case, the battleground's queue. Queue - Script Commands *queue()creates a new queue instance, returns created queue id set .@id,queue(); *queuesize(<queue_id>)returns the amount of entries in queue instance of <queue_id>. set .@length,queuesize(.@queue_id); *queueadd(<queue_id>,<var_id>)adds <var_id> to queue of <queue_id>, returns 1 if <var_id> is already present in the queue, 0 otherwise. queueadd(.@queue_id,.@var_id); *queueremove(<queue_id>,<var_id>)removes <var_id> from queue of <queue_id>, returns 1 if <var_id> is not present in the queue, 0 otherwise. queueremove(.@queue_id,.@var_id); *queueopt(<queue_id>,<optionType>,{Optional <option val>})modifies <queue_id>'s <optionType>, when <option val> is not present, <optionType> is removed from <queue_id>, when present it modifies <queue_id>'s <optionType> with the new <option val> value.
Currently 3 options are available, HQO_OnDeath (0), HQO_OnLogout (1), HQO_OnMapChange (2) (the constant names are not final). queueopt(.@queue_id,0,"MyNPC::MyOnQueueMemberDeathEventName");It allows you to hook npc events to be triggered by specific actions that may happen to a player in the queue (when the queue in question is used for account ids) *queuedel(<queue_id>)deletes <queue_id> returns 1 when <queue_id> is not found, 0 otherwise. queuedel(.@queue_id); *queueiterator(<queue_id>)creates a new queue iterator instance, a queue iterator is not a reference to a queue's actual members, it copies the queues members when initialized, this way you can loop through them even if you remove them from the queue set .@it,queueiterator(.@queue_id); *qicheck(<queue_iterator_id>)checks whether there is a next member in the iterator's queue, 1 when it does, 0 otherwise. qicheck(.@queue_iterator_id); *qiget(<queue_iterator_id>)obtains the next member in the iterator's queue, returns the next member's id or 0 when it doesnt exist. for( set .@elem,qiget(.@queue_iterator_id); qicheck(.@queue_iterator_id); set .@elem,qiget(.@queue_iterator_id) ) *qiclear(<queue_iterator_id>)deletes a queue iterator from memory, returns 1 when it fails, 0 otherwise. qiclear(.@queue_iterator_id) Sample Usage: /* say create a queue */set .@id,queue();queueadd(.@id,getcharid(3));/* ... add as many entries ... (no limit) */if( queuesize(.@id) == 999 ) {    /* whatever */}/* anywhere in the code */set .@it,queueiterator(.@id);for( set .@elem,qiget(.@it); qicheck(.@it); set .@elem,qiget(.@it) ) {    //do anything e.g.    /* attachrid .@elem; */    /* mes "ID:"+.@elem; */}qiclear(.@it); Special Thanks To
Yommy for providing me with a hell lot of data for the BG Queue, wouldn't have been able to get it to this point without his help. Rosiel for his suggestion on the instance feature Xgear for his help with the network timeout bug mkbu95 for pinpointing the script parser bug All of Hercules Staff for their ideas/suggestions/criticism and support, and for keeping me sane during this memory slashing madness The Future~! This patch sure has taken me away from my usual bug-squashing mode, I'll be going back to my over-10-bug-fix-a-day schedule. We have quite a hell lot planned so this might not last long, make sure to keep an eye on your bug reports for I sure will be replying to them. Link~u! Commit 1 Commit 2 Commit 3

** May contain interpretation errors ■ Inspection Time    - Servers: 22:00 to 06:30 (Spanish time   ※ GnJOY will perform a general maintenance, and some services like login, shops and the web will be temporarily out. ※ If GnJOY takes longer than expected, they apologize for the inconvenience and hope you understand.   Common Patch:   - Family Event is now finshed. Ziu note: Costume: Shiny Small Star Item will lose its LUK +30, FLEE +10 bonus.   Mains Servers:    - Items that change your font type will no longer be sold.   Sakray Server:    - All items from treasures which effect were only applied on WoE TE castles will be modified so that you can't use them on those maps. [!]     Translator notes: there may be some incorrections. The [!] marked sentence means I couldn't fully understand this one in Spanish. As a comment, if that text was correct in Spanish it wouldn't make any sense if you couldn't use those items (which have effect) at all.   Big thanks to Ziu for taking the original text patch and translating it to Spanish. Thanks to jaBote for translating it from Spanish over to English.

Download
xDiffPatcher
This is our Next-Generation Diff Patcher, it requires a new style of diff file called xDiff, (xml based) each xdiff is specific for a single ragexe,
and will not work on any other ragexe date.
xDiff files are created with the xDiffGen software below.
There is a recent build in the directory : xDiffPatcherbinDebug
Source is included if anyone wants to improve somethings
 
---------------------------------------------------
 
All the following software need to use php language. Please install it on your computer.
This is CommandLine PHP, Do not attempt to run these scripts in a web browser
We would recommend using Subversion since these projects are frequently updated with new features.
 
- Linux : sudo apt-get install php5
- Windows : install this http://windows.php.net/download/#php-5.4
Open your control panel and search : Edit environment variable for your account
In this Windows, the second part (title System variables), search the variable Path
Enter your PHP directory at the end, including ';' before (e.g. ;C:php)
 
Now search your php.ini files
Uncomment the line extension=php_sockets.dll (you have to remove the char ';')
       
-= xDiffGen 2 =-
 

 
 
Download
xDiffGen2
 
To use that software, you have to put the decrypted exe in the Clients folder and open the file DiffGen.bat
Then select the first option (0 - Local client folder), select your exe and the xDiff will be create in the Diffs folder
some patches also extract some data (msgstringtables, packet_lengths, etc), these are put into the Extracted_Data folder
 
Options 2 and 3 do not fully work as intended, since gravity are distributing new clients with Themida protection /sadface
Options M and F are used to test a single patch against all clients to detect when some patterns fails (again not working with themida clients)
 
 
 
-= Packet Parser =-
 

 
Download
PacketParser
 
To use that software you have to place ws2_pp.dll from the dev folder, into your RO folder.
Then hex edit your Ragexe.exe : search ws2_32.dll and replace the both occurrences by ws2_pp.dll
 
Next you should extract the packetlength file using Packet Extract, And place it into packet parserdatapacket
Next, open the parser.bat, choose Live Network Capture, choose your packet length tables file, and choose full_info
Then open your Ragexe.exe (if done correct you will be prompted to use PacketParser)
Enjoy
 
 
-= Packet Extract =-
 

 
Download
this is a subscript of PacketParser above
 
All you have to do here is to place your Ragexe.exe in the folder clients, with a pattern like this : 2013-05-22Ragexe.exe
Open Packet_Extract.bat, select your exe
Your Packet Data Length is now in the plens folder
 
 
All credits to Yommy
I just worked personally on the xDiffGen2 patches.
 
We are open for anyone who wants to help with any of these projects.
they are designed to be edited and hacked about with, and hope you can find some use with them

Hello,
 
While we do not mind that rAthena developers, staff members and regular members register an account, post or send PM's on our forums, we do not take kindly to 'rAthena is better because x y and z' posts, or anything promoting rAthena as a superior emulator because of such and such. There is no such post on rAthena made by a Hercules staff member about Hercules and we intend to keep it that way, we would appreciate the same respect.
 
Those who do not follow this simple clause listed above will have their post(s) deleted and/or hidden from view. Repeat offenders will be suspended from our forum with no further warnings or post manipulation.
 
We do not appreciate, nor welcome drama here. While criticism is welcome in the form of 'why doesn't Hercules have such and such a feature', drama and belittling a project (hercules or not) will not be tolerated. This is a collaboration, not a drama infested 12 year old's contest.
 
Thank you.
