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 which makes this guide outdated very fast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
 
Step 1: Download and Install TortoiseGit

1a. Download TortoiseGit
https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 1a.png
 
1b. Installation
next... next... next.. next... next.. next.. Install !!!
 
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 2b. Downloading ...
https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 2b.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 // a machine with multiple interfaces. 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 ipban_db_id: root ipban_db_pw: 1234 ipban_db_db: rathena ipban_codepage: // MySQL Character server char_server_ip: 127.0.0.1 char_server_port: 3306 char_server_id: root char_server_pw: 1234 char_server_db: rathena // MySQL Map Server map_server_ip: 127.0.0.1 map_server_port: 3306 map_server_id: root map_server_pw: 1234 map_server_db: rathena // MySQL Log Database log_db_ip: 127.0.0.1 log_db_port: 3306 log_db_id: root log_db_pw: 1234 log_db_db: rathena log_codepage: log_login_db: loginlog 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 // a machine with multiple interfaces. char_ip: 127.0.0.1 // The map 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 // 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 5d. Compile GRF Editor
https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 5d.png
double click GRFEditor.sln
 
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
 
FINAL STEP - change PACKEVER
#define PACKETVER 20180620  
Hercules -> src\common\mmo.h
https://github.com/AnnieRuru/customs/blob/master/server setup/Step 7a.png
 
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 #
 
Frequently Asked Question:
Change Renewal into Pre-Renewal
Hercules -> src/config/renewal.h
rAthena -> src/config/renewal.hpp

if you need anything else, just ask. 

Hello Community,
 
Yesterday, I was trying to make Quest Appear on other TAB's and result was successful.
 
Prerequisite:
You need latest ROClientside Repository : https://github.com/ROClientSide/Translation/ https://github.com/ROClientSide/Translation/commit/9d93ef1 (This Commit is necessary) you need Client >= 2014-10-22 (Haven't Tested with old clients, You can test and tell if it works )  
Here's a Guide:
 
questluafilelist.lub:
 
You need 2 files, local_XYZquest_list and l_XYZ_list and in the folders as mentioned below:
Add Following lines to questluafilelist.lub(at end of file) without EXTENSIONS as mentioned below:
Add[[localquest\local_dastgirquest_list]] Add[[localquest\questinfo\l_dastgir_list]]  
local_dastgirquest_list.lub(Sample Files, Modify to your needs):
LOCAL_DastgirQuest_List = { { name = [[Dastgir Custom Quests]], imagefile = [[ep_test_sample.bmp]], list = { { name = [[Novice]], list = { { name =[[Test1]], scrfilename = [[DastgirQuest]], questID = 1019, }, { name =[[Test2]], scrfilename = [[DastgirQuest]], questID = 1017, } } }, { name = [[Quests 11~25]], list = { { name =[[11-15]], scrfilename = [[DastgirQuest]], questID = 1017, }, { name =[[16-20]], scrfilename = [[DastgirQuest]], questID = 1019, }, } } } } } _G.QuestTable.add(LOCAL_DastgirQuest_List, "EVENT")  
It needs Following line at the bottom for compulsary
 
_G.QuestTable.add(LOCAL_XYZQuest_List, "TAB") where TAB's are
EVENT LOCAL EP NEW RECOMMENDED Replace LOCAL_XYZQuest_List with Table name at top of this file...
 
l_dastgir_list.lub(Sample File, Modify to your needs):
DastgirQuest_List = { [1019] = { NPCFromName = [[Dastgir]], NPCFromMap = [[new_1-1]], NPCFromSpr = [[4_M_01]], NPCFromX = 63, NPCFromY = 53, NPCToName = [[Dastgir]], NPCToMap = [[prontera]], NPCToSpr = [[4_M_01]], NPCToX = 86, NPCToY = 84, Item = [[]], PrizeItem = [[]], Title = [[Event QuestInfo ]], Info = [[Testing the Event.]], QuickInfo = [[QuickInfo.]], Hunt1 = [[]], Hunt2 = [[]], Hunt3 = [[]], Time = [[0]], LV = [[0]], }, [1017] = { NPCFromName = [[Dastgir-1]], NPCFromMap = [[prontera]], NPCFromSpr = [[4_BRICKPILE]], NPCFromX = 84, NPCFromY = 123, NPCToName = [[Dastgir-2]], NPCToMap = [[payon]], NPCToSpr = [[4_BOARD3]], NPCToX = 76, NPCToY = 114, Item = [[]], PrizeItem = [[]], Title = [[Event QuestInfo ]], Info = [[Testing the Event.]], QuickInfo = [[QuickInfo.]], Hunt1 = [[Alarm]], Hunt2 = [[]], Hunt3 = [[]], Time = [[0]], LV = [[0]], }, } _G.QuestTable.addList("DastgirQuest",DastgirQuest_List) In this file too, you need Following line in the end
_G.QuestTable.addList("XYZQuest",XYZQuest_List) where XYZQuest_List is table_name(mentioned in first line of this file), (Please see the quotes)
 
 
and that's it. put it into your GRF, and it will work
 
 
NOTE: Many Functions are modified, so you would need quest_function.lub provided in the repository
 
ScreenShot:

 
Please Don't Remove credits in the quest_function file...

Merge the sprites into one file.
then edit the actor into the corresponding sprites.
If you don't know what that is, visit here: http://herc.ws/wiki/Acts

What a good guy :>
You'd might need one of this when you look for them sprites
http://herc.ws/board/files/file/138-grf-editor/
 
but for now you can have it here:
4_m_antonio.rar

File version compressed in rar for the genetic's sprite data.
Just in case you have issue extracting
Gene_2nd.rar

Genetic Sprites finally out (sorry for my delay):
 
The Sprites are located in: dataspriteÀΰ£Á·¸öÅë¿©costume_1 for female and dataspriteÀΰ£Á·¸öÅë³²costume_1 for male
 
and a bit of more info:
All costume sprites are moved to this folder (wedding, santa, beach 1 and 2, oktoberfest, hanbok, Game Master)
 
GENETICIST ALT SPRITE.zip
 
Enjoy it!

What is Midgard Community?

- Midgard Community is a Ragnarok Online community that provides various information regarding the world of Ragnarok. We have a Ragnarok Server Listing service that provides space for server owners to list their Ragnarok Online Private Server with us. We provide a download system to the Ragnarok Community which houses multiple files that range from NPC sprites, Class Sprites, Palettes, Maps, Items, Monsters, Cutins/Illustrations, Models, etc. !

 
Does Midgard Community have a Database?

- Midgard Community provides both a Renewal and Pre-Renewal database for our community. Unfortunately, the database is not integrated with the main site. In both databases, you'll find information regarding various Ragnarok items, monsters, and maps. We also have various calculators and informational tables.

 
What is Midgard Community's Download system?

- The download system found in Midgard Community's forum houses tons of files that range from NPC sprites, Class Sprites, Palettes, Maps, Items, Monsters, Cutins/Illustrations, Models, etc. In order to get any files from the system, you must be an active member in the forum. The plan for the download system is to be the #1 stop to get files for a server owner's Ragnarok Server.

 
API (Application Programming Interface)

- As suggested by a member of the community, I've worked diligently with a fellow friend on implementing an API for Midgard's database. When you send a request for either an item or monster, you'll get different structured outputs returned back to you depending on what you've searched for.

 Item

 


Monster
 


However, not anyone can fetch what they want. When you create an account through the main site, if setup, there will be a token assigned to your username. You will need this token in order to fetch data from the database.
 
Required Fields:
api_key id (Item / Monster ID)  
​Optional Field:
type - If no type is given, you'll directly get an item. To get monster, set Type's value to 1.

File Name: Rogue's Cape Sprite & Actor (Reworked)
File Submitter: Shourei
File Submitted: 17 Jul 2015
File Category: Sprites & Palettes
 
Rogue's Cape Sprite by Davven Graphics.
I take no credit for the creation of the sprite.
However, the Actor is horrible, so I decided to reworked it.
 
The file contain only the sprites as it is put on the character.
 
Request can be made for re-creation of other parts of client side files if needed.
 
Please PM me if you encounter issues

File Name: Act Editor
File Submitter: Tokeiburu
File Submitted: 03 Dec 2014
File Category: Client Resources
 
Heya,
 
This tool is an action file editor, it edits Act and Spr files. You will find similarities with ActOR in its design, but it should be much more enjoyable to edit animations ;].
 
Special thanks to Nebraskka for testing this software in its early days. All the suggestions and feedbacks made this software much better.
 
How to install
Download the zip archive provided from the download link at the bottom of this description or directly from there : http://www.mediafire.com/download/y3amu1o5zsmgd2o
Install the application with Act Editor Installer.exe; if you are missing a .NET Framework you will be prompted to download it.
Once you are done, you can start the program from the link on your desktop.


 
 
Key features
The software has many, many features available. It would take too long to describe each one of them, so I've only focussed on the more impotant ones.
You can undo and redo everything, scripts included.
You can edit and add sounds easily.
Powerful and easy to use palette editor.
Sprite types have been abstracted - you don't have to worry or care about that.
Animation speed can be changed easily.
Most components have a drag and drop feature.
Advanced scripting engine (C# language). The scripts can also be used to customize the software menus.
Error checking when saving the act/spr to avoid invalid files. The sprite version will be automatically downgraded if RLE compression is not available.
Frame interpolation (inbetweening/tweening) is possible via the Animation menu.
Prompts you with an image converter dialog if the added image is invalid.
Allows advanced edition for actions and frames via their respective menus.
You can load files from GRFs directly (and save in the GRFs directly as well).

Technical stuff
Requires .Net Framework 3.5 (SP1) Client Profile to run (3.5 or more will work as well).
When prompted with an error, use the "Copy exception" button to copy the debugging info. I will need this to fix the issue you're encountering.

The editor's primary window
The interface is really straightforward and similar to ActOR. I'll only focus on new elements!
 
Rendering mode : This option changes the behavior of how layers are rendered. If you use 'Editor', you'll clearly see all the pixels when zooming in. If you use 'Ingame', it will use a linear scaling instead, which is closer to what the client does.

 
References : These allow you to know where your item will be positionned (the yellow marker is the anchor, see below).

 
Color mask : To edit the color of a layer, simply click on the color rectangle. You can also drag and drop the colors between different layers to quickly modify many of them.
 
Common shortcuts : You can manipulate layers by using common shortcuts. More can be found from the Edit menu. These below are only the primary ones.
Ctrl-A : Select all layers.
Ctrl-C : Copy the selected layers.
Ctrl-V : Paste the copied layers.
Ctrl-X : Cut the selected layers.
Alt-C : Copy current action.
Alt-V : Paste current action.

Advanced action and frame editions
These expose all the available methods of the editor. You can remove a range of frames or copy a frame 10 times very quickly and easily. This dialog is found in Action/Frame > Advanced edit...

 
 
Anchors
You can edit anchors from the editor directly. Anchors are points that connect frames together, from different act files. Here's an example without and with anchors :
 



 
This is mostly useful when you're using reference sprites (on the right panel). Clicking on the anchor button will let you choose where to attach the sprite (this is set semi-automatically for you though). You can edit those from the Anchors menu, but it is recommended to start from a pre-existing act to avoid doing this tedious process.
 
 
Palette editor
The palette editor allows you to quickly recolor sprites with an intuitive interface. Only indexed images can be edited (it's a palette editor after all) and three modes are available. The gradient mode changes an existing gradient to another color while keeping the original saturation and brightness of the colors - this makes the gradients blend in better. If there are no gradient (usually because it's a custom sprite), there's always the Adjust color mode. This one changes all color from a specified range to another one (Photoshop has a similar feature, which does work better).
 

 
You can click on the image (on the left) to automatically select the palette indexes. These will be highlighted for a few seconds to show you what you're about to edit.
 
 
Interpolation (tweening)
This script can be accessed via Animation > Interpolate frames. This process fills the images between two frames by detecting the changes applied to the layers. Here's a simple example of how it can be used :
 
 
 
 
Script engine
The script engine can be accessed via Scripts > Script Runner. This is a big feature of Act Editor, it allows you to automate all your work with the act and much more. Click on the Help button for guides and available methods (don't hesitate to try out a script; if an error occurs the act will be reversed to its previous state). The documentation doesn't cover all of the available options and methods for obvious reasons (the .net framework is huge). Doc example :
 

 
The language used by the script engine is C#. If you're not familiar with it, simply check out the script samples (Scripts > Open scripts folder)! I won't go into details here, questions can be asked in the support thread regarding addiotional features and methods. If you believe your script should be added in the program, send it to me and I'll probably add it.
 
 
Customizable
The settings dialog allows you to modify all colors in the editor easily.

 
You'll also find the sound resources (GRFs and folders) that can be set up in the Sound tab. The Shell integration tab can associate the .act files with the software to edit them more easily.
 

 
Don't hesitate to give me a feedbacks or suggestions!

Hello everyone.
I go by Shourei or tsan79.
Up to recently I was only your average players, but for a certain person, I am going to have to learn and hopefully contribute to this project in the near future.
 
A little bit about my knowledge:
My only and strongest skill is pattern recognition.
Thanks to that, I have a little insight from lurking around, but mostly on spriting and maps-related; but, I have close to zero knowledge on RO-related or computer scripting (Don't even know how to GIT yet)
Thus if you seen my past bug threads you know why.
 
I will start off by reading sources that we already have, and asking lots of questions (I hope you don't mind, please help me!) - Eventually becoming an all rounder in both client and server side.
If you have any recommendation on where to start (from zero), please share!
 
Thank you in advance!

Hello, I just want to suggest mapflag to disable VIEWID of charaters. This feature is implemented in official.   Here's the current format (devs area): http://herc.ws/board/topic/143-missing-mapflags/?hl=mapflag#entry1028 // Disable use of costume items// TRUE: Even with costume items equipped, regular item displays.// FALSE: Costume items display instead of regular items in that slot.// Description: On PK enabled maps, the usage of costume items is disabled.// Added On: Sakray - 2010/06/30ADD_PROPERTY(DISABLE_COSTUMEITEM,TRUE);   But I think it would be better if we have options like this.   256 = disable Upper Headgear display 512 = disable Middle Headgear display ... 1024 = disable Costume Top Headgear display 2048 = disable Costume Mid Headgear display 4096 = disable Costume Low Headgear display 7168 = disable Costume Top/Mid/Low display 8192 = disable Costume Garment/Robe display   Example:prontera mapflag noviewid 1024 Players won't be able to view the Costume Top Headgear in prontera map.     map_zone_db.conf : name: "GvG" mapflags: ( "noviewid 7168", ) Players won't be able to view the Costume Top/Mid/Low Headgear in all gvg maps.     What do you think?

'job_db1.txt' Redesign
 
What is it?
The file has been upgrade to achieve 2 goals: make it easier for us to update the file and for our users to customize it better. The old hp/sp computation has been drop and replace by hp/sp tables. job_db.conf Format:
Job_Name: { // Job names as in src/map/pc.c (they are hardcoded at the moment so if you want to add a new job you should add it there)     Inherit: ( "Other_Job_Name" );     // Base job from which this job will inherit its max weight, base ASPD set and HP/SP table.     InheritHP: ( "Other_Job_Name" );// Base job from which this job will inherit its HP table.     InheritSP: ( "Other_Job_Name" );// Base job from which this job will inherit its SP table.     Weight: Max Weight            (int, defaults to 20000, units in Weight/10)     BaseASPD: {                 // Base ASPD for specific weapon type         Fist: 0~200                (int, defaults to 200)         Dagger: 0~200            (int, defaults to 200)         Sword: 0~200            (int, defaults to 200)         TwoHandSword: 0~200        (int, defaults to 200)         Spear: 0~200            (int, defaults to 200)         TwoHandSpear: 0~200        (int, defaults to 200)         Axe: 0~200                (int, defaults to 200)         TwoHandAxe: 0~200        (int, defaults to 200)         Mace: 0~200                (int, defaults to 200)         TwoHandMace: 0~200        (int, defaults to 200)         Rod: 0~200                (int, defaults to 200)         Bow: 0~200                (int, defaults to 200)         Knuckle: 0~200            (int, defaults to 200)         Instrumen: 0~200        (int, defaults to 200)         Whip: 0~200                (int, defaults to 200)         Book: 0~200                (int, defaults to 200)         Katar: 0~200            (int, defaults to 200)         Revolver: 0~200            (int, defaults to 200)         Rifle: 0~200            (int, defaults to 200)         GatlingGun: 0~200        (int, defaults to 200)         Shotgun: 0~200            (int, defaults to 200)         GrenadeLauncher: 0~200    (int, defaults to 200)         FuumaShuriken: 0~200    (int, defaults to 200)         TwoHandRod: 0~200        (int, defaults to 200)         Shield: 0~200            (int, defaults to 0)     }     HPTable:[ 1, .... 150 ]        (int[]) Reference table for base HP per level      SPTable:[ 1, .... 150 ]        (int[]) Reference table for base SP per level     // Note: If table index size is smaller than the max level the server will automatically generate the missing index based on the average increase per level.} Benefit?
You can now easily specify a class base weight, base aspd for specific weapon types and HP/SP per level. Lessen redundant entries and good for the eyes.. RE ASPD formula is improved to compatibly(less/no more conversion) accept aegis database. Tools?

Commit: https://github.com/HerculesWS/Hercules/commit/b59b9d1ab4c5a21081cdd2af126997ed7093d743 File: https://github.com/HerculesWS/Hercules/blob/master/db/re/job_db.conf

Hello everyone!
 
Hercules is now back up and running smoothly on the new host. We apologize for the downtime that was given as we were performing the migration! You may look for more information at this post: http://herc.ws/board/topic/9987-server-transfer-and-downtime/
 
There may be things that are still recuperating, please be patient with us as they will be recovered!
 
Once again, we apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused!

I decided to bring this topic alive over here in Hercules. I've gathered a few different other links that I found to be interesting and removed some that were dead and no longer had any use. Hopefully I'll be able to keep this topic as updated as I possibly can, of course with everyone's help!
