Nakiren

Thank you so much for replying! So if I want to run a renewal server, should I execute item_db_re.sql, mob_db_re.sql, etc in my ragnarok schema? I have an issue when I enter my server by the way. Everything is black except for the gui, the npc's and my character, and I can't move my character. Is there a simple fix you know for this? I've tried downloading several different kRO folders and clients, but for some reason nothing on the client-side seems to have fixed the problem.

I'm new to rAthena.org, but I am not new to Ragnarok or Networking. Wasn't sure if I should put this in Server-side Support or Client-side Support. Client-side questions So, the guide linked below states that there is a packet_db_ver. Is this the kRO packet version, the executable packet version, or some database version that I'm unaware of? https://rathena.org/board/topic/104452-tutorial-how-to-create-ragnarok-offline-2015-client/ Why is the data/translation folder, the executable client, and the kRO client all found in separate locations? Why is there no single packet for the client? Diffing involves editing the GUI of the executable client, I know that much, but does it edit anything else? Server-side questions I'm a little unsure as to why the different installation instructions vary per guide. For example, the guide on Wikipedia instructs the user to only use main.sql and logs.sql when filling the SQL database. https://rathena.org/wiki/SQL_Installation There is another guide, that says almost the exact opposite. The user carefully explains that you should go through the sql-files folder and run each individual .sql file, including the ones in the subfolders. https://rathena.org/board/topic/104452-tutorial-how-to-create-ragnarok-offline-2015-client/ My question is, which should I do? Here I have item_db.sql and item_db_re.sql, two separate SQL files. Is item_db.sql just the eAthena items? I'd assume it is. Does that mean that item_db_re.sql is an extension? Or is item_db_re.sql both eAthena and renewal items? There is also the item_db.sql and item_db2.sql. Both files are titled the same thing, but one has a 2 on the end of it. Why does a script need an extension in a second file? Why can't it just be in one file? (Now for the unimportant stuff.) I'm Nakiren, nice to meet you all. I've been using this board for the past two days during the creation of my private server, and I have it running, but there are several questions I had for the people in this site who give good support. I hope to stick around for awhile and get to know you all while I'm here.
