Been trying hard to use client version before 2012-04-10 as these clients uses old character creation. Does anyone here success with this client build on the latest Herc?

look like shuffle packets for client older than main 2012-07-10aRagexe not known.

this mean older than this clients can works if some one tested each packet for them. my tools still cant extract all shuffle packets for old clients too.

 

this mean you got chance to work with clients from some 2010 to 2012-07-10 only if this clients directly added to packets.h

for example here exists 2011-11-02aRagexe: https://github.com/HerculesWS/Hercules/blob/stable/src/map/packets.h#L809

Do you have any issues with guild flags over the head using old clients?

I mean the guild flags over the head are displaced. Try to check it out.

Yes, the emblem. 

I figure out the issue. It happens when you enable Emblem Over the Head for BG using 2013, 2014, 2015 hexeds...
