Introduction

RO client GRF file although with high compression ratio compression feature, but not a perfect key protection mechanisms that currently most of the characteristics of SF headdress and articles are free to copy the data , resulting in almost every Ragnarok Private Server client configuration are the same . Therefore, in order to protect the fruits of hard work Ragnarok Private Server workers, Advanced GRF system came into being.

The version of the file system on the basis of GRF2.0 original structure, embedded advanced symmetric key encryption algorithm, the file is no longer open GRF GRF just unpacked using a program can unlock, but need only produce who did not know a key to open GRF file.

Advanced GRF Tool Suite package contains four programs:

Advanced GRF Tool (Advanced GRF production tools , and support for the production and unpack files RGZ),
Advanced GRF automatic updater (kRO imitate official updater production, shouldering Advanced GRF file automatic update task ),
Advanced GRF offline updater , Advanced GRF automatically updated Configurator (can easily customize Advanced GRF updater for each parameter),
Advanced GRF client DLL (and with it, the client ordinary supports Advanced GRF files).

This program is release in 2007. Very popular in China. Supports all Ragnarok Online versions prior 2013.12.23. Sometimes antivirus software will prompt DLL has a virus, but I guarantee that it is safe.

Advanced GRF client DLL

Just copy the DLL client to the client directory, overwriting the original cps.dll file.

Automatically update the file,RGZ and GPF File Production

RGZ

Update files are typically asked that the x.exe x.lub or other files, not in the directory "data\" .

GPF

All files contained in the directory "data\"

AGRFTool

RGZ Production

Will need to send files to the client , the client's directory structure into an empty folder, for example: F:\AutomaticUpdatesRGZ\

Select AGRTool in RGZ button to [Open] the production program interface. Example by just doing a directory to select resources and output directories . Well -defined file name.

After the completion point of all [Zip] button.

GPF Production

Will need to send to the client data.grf files , according to data directory structure into an empty folder, for example: F:\AutomaticUpdatesGPF\data\, please remember gpf document root directory is defined data, rather than ro root.

On AGRTool click [Create] button to create an empty gpf file and define the file name and then click the [ADD] button to select the directory for storing files earlier . Below , please note that the program's title is Create a file name and path.

Special features encryption

If you need to encrypt data files, please click [Key] button in the program interface checked Security Mode, and enter the password .

Special features compression

There are four levels of compression can be selected, in general we have chosen is Default, but my personal preference is the Best Compression ie the best compression ratio.
