Hi all, Sometime last year I started working on a Ragnarok client. (Again...) It's very close in behavior to the original client, using DirectX and the original 3rd party libraries (granny2.dll, mss32.dll etc). It doesn't have a name yet, but I like to think of it as my "SakExe", since that's what it's based on. At this point it can be used for basic gameplay, though much of the user interface is still missing, as well as a lot of the effects. Recently I've made a few changes, making an alternative rendering implementation using OpenGL. After a little work I was able to compile my client for Linux and finally Android. I'll use this topic as a showcase/work log. Feel free to ask any questions. And now for some pictures... DirectX mode on Windows 8. Some features like the Granny3D actors are only supported on Windows. It's working great on Android, although some additional tweaks are needed to make it more accessible. What I've done so far is to scale the UI to make it easier to hit buttons, and adding touch gestures for things like camera rotation. This is with OpenGL ES rendering on my x86 Android phone (1920x1080). It also runs on 32 bit ARM. I've been testing it on both my newest phone and my old Samsung Galaxy Note II, the latter of which is a little over 3 years old at this point. Originally I got like 0.5~2 FPS on my phones with my naive GL renderer, but after some work the performance it pretty solid on both of my phones.

Go to your trunk/src/map/pc.h edit that line maybe make it 20 or 30. #define MAX_PC_BONUS 10 /// Max bonus, usually used by item bonus https://github.com/rathena/rathena/blob/master/src/map/pc.h#L25 and dont forget to re compile.

Did you check the maps_athena.conf? inside the conf folder. about the classic version im not sure how and i guess you also need the files of the map.

That depends on what you mean by Renewal client. Ragnarok's Renewal upgrade was predominantly a change in game mechanics and an overhaul of the game content. This is for the most part independent of the client. My client could connect to a renewal-based server in its current state if I updated the networking protocol. The major differences between RagExe and RagExeRE were the introduction of the Lua interpreter and the overhaul of the user interface. I will be implementing neither of these, and probably nothing related to the 3rd classes. As for customization, that is done by changing build parameters before compiling. You can think of it as a config file like Athena uses. Client patchers provide a dead simple way to customize the client, but most people are unaware of the staggering amount of work that goes into making a tool like NEMO. These customization patches have made out of necessity, and with source code available that necessity is gone. Implementing skills is one of the biggest tasks in creating a client, simply because there are so many of them. Skills come in many different varieties, some requiring additional UI (e.g. warping, Graffiti), some need special character animations, some combine multiple effects, sounds, special damage and special hit effects. In addition to the player skills there are also many skills only used by monsters. At the moment I have about 14,000 lines of code just implementing the various visual effects, so it's easy to forget what's ready and what's not. Here's an overview of the current state of the 1st and 2-1 classes. ✓ means 100% done, ✗ means unimplemented or partially unimplemented. Most skills can be used just fine without implementing an effect, but for my 1st milestone I want to have at least 1-1, 2-1 and 2-2 skills fully implemented.

I'm against it. The Herc format is horrible, you can't load it into a spreadsheet program. =/ The rAthena format is much easier to customize for me.
