A few days ago i came with an idea to make repository of official sprites and textures
from all non KRO server (eg: JRO, IDRO, TWRO...etc).
My dreams is to collect all items from all official RO server,
unfortunately many of my files got corrupted when merging some files,
so only around 75% that can be saved.
You can find my repository through this link :
https://github.com/zackdreaver/RO-Clientresources
Because of many items missing,
i want your participation to help me completing the files tha not exist in repository
through Pull Request or give me the required files via comment/PM.
I've used plenty of proxy servers, so this is just a heads up from my experience.
VPS are a waste of time as far as proxy servers are concerned. I had some really expensive vps in some of the Asian and S.A. countries and they helped very little or slowed down most people. This is because most vps use a crap port speed which doesn't help anyone. But I even upgraded the port speed to 1 Gbps on some and still didn't help. Shared connection is a bish.
I had the same experience with cloud servers. These all claimed 1 gbps port speeds and great connection, but same result.
My positive results have been and continue to be dedicated servers as proxies. Sure it's significantly more expensive, but players that use dedicated proxies confirm that the delay and ping are noticeably better. You can slightly reduce the cost if you do not get the proxy ddos protected and just set up the ip to get nullrouted if it gets spammed. That way people can just go on your main ip in case of an attack.
Location of proxies is extremely important. I'll use Brazil as an example since this is here we found this to be very important. We first got a proxy somewhere towards the middle of Brazil, since we could target the most people. Even though people there have crap connections, the ones that were further up north than the proxy ended up getting more delay by using the proxy. That's because our main server was in Canada. The people that were coming from southern Brazil had a better connection using the proxy than going directly to the main.
Lastly to the people that say proxies don't help, you are right for the most part. You have to set it up properly and get proper equipment for it to make any noticeable difference. But doing it right does help quite a lot of people. We are currently running a West Coast proxy optimized for Asian connections and about 20-30% of our total players use it over the main connection.
Just my own experience in the matter.
Buenas, les traigo una pequeña guia de como instalar el thor. Primero lo que vamos a hacer es descargar el thor patcher Descarga: http://thor.aeomin.net
Primer paso: Una vez descargado y descomprimido nos vamos a dirigir a la carpeta Tools y vamos a buscar un archivo llamado config.ini Lo habren y vamos a cambiar los siguientes valores. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RootURL='http://yourwebsite.com/patch/'
(Aqui colocaras la ruta en donde se encontrara la carpeta de thor de la web)
RemoteConfigFile='main.ini'
(Se puede cambiar el nombre pero ten encuenta que tendran que cambiarlo el nombre al archivo de igual modo este archivo se encuentra en web)
StatusFile='your.dat'
(Este archivo es el que el thor va a leer en su carpeta de su server al abrirlo cambienle el nombre)
DefaultGRF='your.grf'
(Aqui, coloquen el nombre de su Main GRF o el grf que usaran para actualizaciones).
ClientEXE='yourRO.exe'
(Aqui va el nombre de su cliente)
Segundo Paso: Una vez finalizado la configuracion de nuestro config.ini nos dirigimos a la siguiente carpeta.web
Una ves ahi, abrimos el archivo main.ini y buscamos la siguiente linea.
Force_Start=false
(Nos deja ejecutar el cliente sin necesidad de que este actualizado Les recomiendo que lo dejen en false)
file_url=http://domain.com/patch/data/
Aqui va a colocar la direccion en donde se van a encontrar sus path de su servidor.
ClientSum=
PatcherSum=
(Esto no lo toquen mas adelante les explicare para que funciona y como utilizarlo).
PatchList=plist.txt
(Aqui va ir el nombre de su lista de actualizaciones y este archivo se debe encontrar en la direccion que colocaron en file url de main.ini)
Listo ya tenemos nuestro main.ini configurado.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tercer Paso:
Como ya tenemos configurado todo nuestra configuracion nos dirigimos a la siguiente carpeta Tools, y buscaremos
ConfigEmbeder.exe
1.- Seleccionaremos Browse
2.- Nos dirigimos a la carpeta del thor Patcher
3.- Abrimos la carpeta Patcher.
4.- Seleccionamos el Archivo Thor.exe
5.- Damos pack.
(Ya tenemos parcheado nuestro thor.exe)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cuarto Paso:
Solo nos falta subir los archivos al web host en este caso seria nuestro main.ini y plist.txt (estos se encuentra en la carpeta Web)
un ejemplo
en nuestro config.ini colocamos lo siguiente
http://yourwebsite.com/patch/ no?
entonces nuestro archivo main.ini debe encontrarse en ese directorio
y en nuestro main.ini colocamos que nuestro plist se encuentra en la carpeta data
file_url=http://domain.com/patch/data/
ahi debemos colocar nuestro plist.txt
(Nota: en donde se encuentre nuestro plist.txt es donde vamos a subir nuestros archivos el cual va a actualizar nuestro patcher)
Make your (offline) RO server in more than 5 hours - pun intended
Hercules Link
This Guide is intended for - Windows users
windows sux, but 90% of the community still using windows, so I am targeting the majority of the members here - You want to contribute something back to the community
if you just want to have fun by yourself, of course it's fine to use that 5 minute instant noodle guide
BUT if you want to contribute to the community, you have to use LATEST server and software available
... which makes this guide outdated very fast
Prelude: Determine your Windows Operating System type a. Windows Key -> Right Click on My Computer -> Select Properties https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/prelude-1.png
b. Determine your Operating System type
I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit system https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/prelude-2.png
1c. Create 2 new folders
1 for Hercules, 1 for rAthena
Right-click -> TortoiseGit -> Clone https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 1c.png
1d. Download git 2.20.1
you'll get this warning message https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 1d.png
Open Git for Windows Website, Download it
next... next... next.. next... next.. next.. Install !!!
1e. Reposition git.exe
This time go to TortoiseGit -> Settings https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 1e.png
General tab -> Git.exe path https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 1e2.png
C:\Program Files\Git\bin
1f. Download Hercules and rAthena
Right Click on the folder, TortoiseGit -> Clone https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 1f.png
https://github.com/HerculesWS/Hercules
https://github.com/rathena/rathena
Problems might encounter during Step 1c,
when it ask for a git.exe, you have to go to that git for windows site, and download that thing
Problems might encounter during Step 1e,
sometimes even though you have already install git2.20.1.exe, but it still couldn't find the git.exe file
to solve it, Right-click -> TortoiseGit -> Settings, you get a warning, Click Ignore, then follow Step 1e
Step 2: Download and Install Microsoft Visual Studio 2017
Step 2a. Download Microsoft Visual Studio https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/ https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 2a.png
Step 2c. Click Install Visual Studio Community 2017 https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 2c.png
Step 2d. Load Hercules Project
Double click Hercules-15.sln https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 2d.png
it says missing Windows 10 SDK 10.0.15063 ...
Step 2e. Install individual component
you can either let Visual Studio do its magic, or ...
manually go to visual studio downloader ... click modify https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 2e.png
then select the component to install manually https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 2e2.png
Step 2f. Load rAthena Project
Do the same thing by double clicking rAthena.sln,
but this time rAthena project needs Windows 8.1 SDK and Windows Universal CRT SDK
Both emulator has been compiled
Problems might encounter during Step 2c
if using Windows 7/8, after the download is complete, it install a windows update that might crash all the programs in your operating system
this Parasite MUST be remove !!
To do this, go to Control Panel -> Program and Features https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 2g.png
Click View Install Update tab https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 2g1.png
then find KB2882822 and remove this parasite from your computer immediately before restarting your computer https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 2g2.png
IF you are the unlucky soul and you can't start any .exe file .... there's still a fix
Restart the computer in Safe Mode ...
many answer around the Internet tells you to press F8 when Windows Logo shows up, but this doesn't work for me, I have USB keyboard
so I found another method ... run System Configuration https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 2h.png
Select the [Boot] tab, then select Safe Mode. https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 2h2.png
this will make your windows always restart in safe mode until you turn it off
then follow the above process, uninstall that windows update, deselect safe mode, restart computer again, now it should be back to normal
Problems might encounter during Step 2f
During compiling, if you see this in your Visual Studio
fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'corecrt.h': No such file or directory
this means you are missing a component Windows Universal CRT SDK https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 2f.png
Step 3: Download and Install MySQL 8.0
Step 3a: Download MySQL 8.0 https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/ https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 3a.png https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 3a2.png
actually, you can just click this -> https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/file/?id=480824
I have 64-bit operating system, but this 32-bit installer works fine for me
Step 3b. Install MySQL 8.0
Select Custom https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 3b1.png
We only need 2 products, MySQL 8.0 and MySQL Workbench https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 3b2.png
Ready to Install https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 3b3.png
next... next.. Execute !! next.. next.. next.. Account and Roles, type "1234" as password https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 3b4.png
click [Check]... next... next.. next... DONE !!
Step 3c. Run MySQL Workbench
Welcome to MySQL Workbench
Double click the icon -> Click Connect https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 3c.png
Step 3d. Create a Schema
Right click at the left side of the window https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 3d.png
and create a Database call Hercules. Remember change charset/collation to utf8 https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 3d2.png
Step 3e. Install SQL Script for Hercules
Set Hercules as default Schema https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 3e.png
load hercules/sql-files/main.sql file https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 3e2.png
copy into Query field, then Press Execute button https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 3e3.png
repeat the same process again for log.sql file
Step 3f. Install SQL Script for rAthena
Set rAthena as default Schema
install rAthena/sql-files/main.sql and the log.sql
Problems might encounter during Step 3e.
If you got a warning message that `ipbanlist` table creation failed, this has been reported -> hercules & rAthena
that's why now we can only use utf8 charset
Step 4: Connect MySQL to Hercules and rAthena
Step 4a. Connect Hercules to MySQL
Copy paste the import-tmpl folder, and rename it into import https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 4a.png
then open each individual files and modify each one of them
conf/import/char_server.conf
char_configuration: {
// Server name, use alternative character such as ASCII 160 for spaces.
// NOTE: Do not use spaces or any of these characters which are not allowed in
// Windows filenames \/:*?"<>|
// ... or else guild emblems won't work client-side!
server_name: "Hercules"
// Information related to inter-server behavior
inter: {
// Server Communication username and password.
userid: "qwer"
passwd: "asdf"
// Login Server IP
// The character server connects to the login server using this IP address.
// NOTE: This is useful when you are running behind a firewall or are on
// a machine with multiple interfaces.
login_ip: "127.0.0.1"
// Character Server IP
// The IP address which clients will use to connect.
// Set this to what your server's public IP address is.
char_ip: "127.0.0.1"
}
pincode: {
enabled: false
}
}
conf/import/map-server.conf
map_configuration: {
// Information related to inter-server behavior
inter: {
// Interserver communication passwords, set in the login server database
userid: "qwer"
passwd: "asdf"
// Map Server IP
// The IP address which clients will use to connect.
// Set this to what your server's public IP address is.
map_ip: "127.0.0.1"
// Character Server IP
// The map server connects to the character server using this IP address.
// NOTE: This is useful when you are running behind a firewall or are on

char_ip: "127.0.0.1"
}
}
conf/global/sql_connections.conf
sql_connection: {
// [INTER] You can specify the codepage to use in your mySQL tables here.
// (Note that this feature requires MySQL 4.1+)
//default_codepage: ""
// [LOGIN] Is `userid` in account_db case sensitive?
//case_sensitive: false
// For IPs, ideally under linux, you want to use localhost instead of 127.0.0.1.
// Under windows, you want to use 127.0.0.1. If you see a message like
// "Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)"
// and you have localhost, switch it to 127.0.0.1
db_hostname: "127.0.0.1"
db_port: 3306
db_username: "root"
db_password: "1234"
db_database: "hercules"
//codepage:""
}
Step 4b. Change s1/p1 inter server connection password
since hercules server hates you for using s1/p1, I change it into qwer/asdf then
Here's how to do it ... Open MySQL Workbench, double click your current running MySQL connection
Type "SELECT * FROM `login`;" , edit the field s1/p1, then click [Apply] https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 4b2.png https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 4b3.png
Step 4c. connect rAthena to MySQL
Copy paste the import-tmpl folder, and rename it into import
then open each individual files and modify each one of them
conf/import/char-conf.txt
// Server name, use alternative character such as ASCII 160 for spaces.
// NOTE: Do not use spaces or any of these characters which are not allowed in
// Windows filenames \/:*?"<>|
// ... or else guild emblems won't work client-side!
server_name: rAthena
// Login Server IP
// The character server connects to the login server using this IP address.
// NOTE: This is useful when you are running behind a firewall or are on
// a machine with multiple interfaces.
login_ip: 127.0.0.1
// The character server listens on the interface with this IP address.
// NOTE: This allows you to run multiple servers on multiple interfaces
// while using the same ports for each server.
bind_ip: 127.0.0.1
// Character Server IP
// The IP address which clients will use to connect.
// Set this to what your server's public IP address is.
char_ip: 127.0.0.1
// NOTE: Requires client 2011-03-09aragexeRE or newer.
// A window is opened before you can select your character and you will have to enter a pincode by using only your mouse.
// Default: yes
pincode_enabled: no
conf/import/inter-conf.txt
// MySQL Login server
login_server_ip: 127.0.0.1
login_server_port: 3306
login_server_id: root
login_server_pw: 1234
login_server_db: rathena
login_codepage:
login_case_sensitive: no
ipban_db_ip: 127.0.0.1
ipban_db_port: 3306

conf/import/login_conf.txt
// The login server listens on the interface with this IP address.
// NOTE: This allows you to run multiple servers on multiple interfaces
// while using the same ports for each server.
bind_ip: 127.0.0.1
conf/import/map_conf.txt
// Character Server IP
// The map server connects to the character server using this IP address.
// NOTE: This is useful when you are running behind a firewall or are on

// while using the same ports for each server.
bind_ip: 127.0.0.1
// Map Server IP
// The IP address which clients will use to connect.
// Set this to what your server's public IP address is.
map_ip: 127.0.0.1
Note: you can do the same for rAthena, change s1/p1 into qwer/asdf. rAthena doesn't *BEEP* when you use s1/p1 though
simply add this line in both conf/import/char-conf.txt and conf/import/map_conf.txt then change it in MySQL Workbench
// Server Communication username and password.
userid: s1
passwd: p1
Read Also: What is Import folder, just scroll down to the bottom and read it
Before going into next step, I want to stress enough and make sure you can get your server to connect to MySQL
so try running run-server.bat to connect your hercules --OR-- rathena server to MySQL https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 4.5.png
if you can't do it right, Open a New Topic in General Server Support
problem might encounter during this step
[SQL]: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client
This happens if you have previous version of MySQL installed on your computer, and upgrade into MySQL 8.0
to fix this issue, run MySQL command line Client from start menu https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 4.5a.png
then run these 2 commands seperately
ALTER USER 'root'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED WITH mysql_native_password BY '1234';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 4.5b.png
5. Download latest KRO Client and client translation files
Step 5a. Download latest KRO from http://herc.ws/board/topic/15592-collection-official-full-clients-latest-kro/ https://rathena.org/board/topic/106413-kro-full-client-2018-08-13-includes-bgm-rsu/ <-- I pick this
// ========== THIS PART IS CONTROVERSIAL ===== BUT IT WORKS FOR ME ========
Step 5b. Create another 2 folders
let's name it Asheraf and zackdreaver ... the author of making client translation https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 5b.png
then download their translation files by git clone them
https://github.com/Asheraf/Translation
https://github.com/zackdreaver/ROenglishRE
Step 5c. Download GRF Editor http://www.mediafire.com/file/aflylbhblrzpz0h/GRF+Editor+v1.8.2.7.zip <-- author forgot to update in that topic, mediafire link is latest one
Step 5e. Open GRF Editor file
Navigate to the directory \GRF Editor Sources v1.8.2.7\GRF Editor\GRFEditor\bin\Release and open GRF Editor.exe https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 5e.png
I also wondering why the author makes the execution files hide so deep inside
Step 5f. Drag the data folder from Asheraf client translation to new.grf https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 5f.png
then save it as Asheraf.grf https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 5f2.png
Step 5g. Repeat the process for zackdreaver translation
Close Grf. New -> Grf, Drag the data folder from zackdreaver/Ragnarok/data to new.grf, then save it as zackdreaver.grf
Now you have learn how to pack your own grf. You should have 2 new grf in client folder
Step 5h. open data.ini in your ragnarok client and edit DATA.INI https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 5h.png
[Data]
1=Asheraf.grf
2=zackdreaver.grf
3=rdata.grf
4=data.grf
Step 5i. Replace Asheraf/system folder into client/system folder https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 5i.png
// ========== CONTROVERSIAL PART ENDS HERE ===== I'm sure many client experts having your doubts why I do like this ========
A lot of problems can appear in this step, these problems also recent and changes with every client
6. Create your own patch client
Step 6a. Download latest nemo
create another folder name nemo https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 6a.png
then git clone from this site
https://gitlab.com/4144/Nemo
Step 6b. Find a suitable client patches http://nemo.herc.ws/downloads/
Since I download KRO 20180813, I chose 2018-06-20eRagexeRe
Step 6c. Open nemo.exe
Click Browse to select your downloaded client patch, then select Load Client https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 6c.png
Step 6d. Use Recommend Settings https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 6d.png
1. forget the "Always call SelectKoreaClientInfo" error https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 6d1.png
2. DATA.INI
3. system/itemInfo_Sak.lub <--- note: the Capital letter of Info_Sak ... nemo doesn't auto-detect capital letters https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 6d3.png
4. Always Load Korea ExternalSetting lua files https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 6d4.png
5. Read Data Folder first https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 6d5.png
6. Apply Selected
Step 6e. Copy 2018-06-20eRagexeRE_patched.exe to the KRO client folder
By this step, you should be able to load your own hexed client without throwing any error https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 6.5.png
if you having problem in this Step 5 & 6, Open a New Topic in Client Support
rAthena -> src\config\packets.hpp <--- original directory, don't edit here
src\custom\defines_pre.hpp https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 7b.png
Then Compile for a Final time
After thought, there are still some minor annoyance and adjustment
client/data/msgstringtable.txt (unpack it or just put at client/data/ folder)
line 3262
Smooth#
line 3458
There was an error when loading the data account settings. (Please restart to retry.)#
change them into just a #
