Tranquility

With what program did you diff your client and what are your diff options? Kindly put them in a code bracket and/or spoiler tag to prevent a wall-of-text.

It keeps crashing because the character is still wearing it. You'll have to reset it in your character database or just null it out there so it won't be equipped any more. You probably forgot to add it to the accessoryid.lua and accname.lua files, which is required for headgears and thus crashing you. If you're 100% sure you did it right there, compile your lua > lub files and try again that way. All depends on how you diffed your client.

It'll be easier to download the latest KRO setup instead and keep private server/personal data in a custom grf-file instead. The list of what is in the rdata/data.grf files is simply too big.

What is the primary key there, the charID or the accountID? Else players with the same account but different characters will create duplicate entries due to it being the PK.

Hmm, I have read something about what you say, and I had a question for that. What ping is enough good? 300ms is it? That 300ms depends from where it is. If it's across the globe it can be 'acceptable', if it's next door, it's completely unacceptable. If you live in the USA and have a server either in the centre or the other side of the country, then your max ping should be about 120ms. When you're talking about crossing oceans (Asian players joining on server residing in the USA) ping can be up to 300ms, sometimes even higher. But this all depends on where the server is situated and what kind of players you want to draw to your server. So if you could, give us a little bit more information and we'll be able to provide better feedback

What git revision are you on now? If it's the latest, you might want to disable the "Skip Packet Header Obfuscation". Also, patch with NEMO instead to be able to set the encryption keys that you see in packet_db for packet 30.

Update your translation files & modify your System/itemInfo.lua to have the correct information. Make sure you have your sprites in the right folders. https://rathena.org/wiki/Custom_Items

Enable/disable plain text encryption diff for your client.

Thanks for the hard work! Glad to be part of this community.

Packet spamming is no longer possible by normal means, with this feature each packet sent has its own id, so spamming (by sending the same packet more than once) is impossible. Due to this nature, packet modifications from 3rd party clients are not able to send the same packets or default packets at all. So WPE, rPE, botting and other packet editing programs won't be able to connect. Thus, more protection. That's how I understood it and hopefully this explanation is clear for you.

https://rathena.org/board/topic/101092-packet-obfuscation-support/ To the others, have you recompiled? Clean build then build? If you did that, what options would you like, I can diff a client or use my client and send it to you if everything still fails.

Two great sources to help you are: - JudasBible - rAthena Wiki As for a stable client, some people have different opinions. But an overview of 2013 clients can be found here. Personally I started with 2012-04-10 but moved on to 2013-08-07. Will make a step to 2013-12-23 or the February client of 2014.

Hey, try to take a look here. It's a similar issue. If the things there doesn't work for you, just post here, so we can keep the posts structured.

Try with NEMO instead. Also using 2013-08-07 and I have no issues at all.

Perfect, already have downloaded and edited the map into the client. Just another thing, how do i save the edited client? Its not saving as a normal client.. As long you overwrite current data it should work, don't add new data to the client. For example, if you don't use himinn, overwrite himinn with exact 6 characters for your own map. If you want a longer mapname, you could go for valkyrie.rsw and rename it valkypvp.rsw or whatever the mapname is you want to use. Just make sure you have an exact amount of characters you want to replace the original map with and don't add new data to the client. New data will mess up all other calls and jumps and thus break your client's functionality.

Can use Hex workshop or XVI. Any hex editor will suffice really.

Try 20120404, the 20120410 has some issues with this as far as I know.

This should be it for the new Prontera warps. http://pastebin.com/9YLrxhng

They do since the end of February.

I'll see where I can find this information and send it off.

I think I've manually changed all warps too for the new Prontera map, would people be interested in that?

The client hexing example is given in this topic: https://rathena.org/board/topic/101223-clouds/ Replace the map you have for the map names that are written in that first method. If not, you'll need to hex your client to add your map to the client data to read your custom map to be one with sky effects. I suggest renaming your current map (in Browedit 586) to one of the maps you mention above to be the optimal solution for you currently.

i guess you updated your kRO to latest? due to that, kRO has the official latest Prontera Map that is not supported in our clients. you can download this downgraded new prontera map © Tokeiburu http://www.mediafire.com/download/7hcz6u9vl4vjhb4/newprontera.grf add it in your data.ini also some places will not be walkable (left/right gate of prontera's stairs), you would need to update your /db/mapcache.dat using weemapcache. Currently also using 2013-08-07 and I am not using the prontera patch from Tokeiburu any more. He should probably rebuild his map cache with the new Prontera map to solve his issue, that worked for me.
