Improvements continue. Most notably I finally added NPC shops. I had completely forgotten there was a little window above the purchase window. Has that actually ever worked on any client? It's supposed to show how much your stats will be raised by buying a piece of equipment (by pulling attack and defense from itemparamtable.txt), but it seems completely broken.

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.

Don't forget to select release from the debug dropdown. It optimizes the server. It may take longer but it's better Source and further info: https://rathena.org/wiki/Compiling
