just passing by to say i've had another try this week and i figured everything out, and my server is now fully working on my lan room. it's awesome. the issue i had with not being able to connect from another pc to my server was just that i was changing the clientinfo.xml in the data.grf file, when it's the one on rathena.xml that was being used by the client. once i discovered that it was pretty much an insta fix. apparently, in case of repeated files in different packages, the client uses the one from the file set to load first in the data.ini file. that's pretty handy because if i want to make small mods i can just make a new small grf and add all the configurations to that instead of having to go around passing that huge data.grf file around.

that's awesome. i'll look into that, seems really useful. i thought the process to "diff" a executable was harder. as for my lan conectivity issues, it's probably ports. i'll try changing them all to ports i know are open and free in my computer.

First of all, thanks for this awesome package. it made the whole process a lot easier to start for me. i'd like to point out something though. those shortcut batch files you made are pointing to the wrong executables. it says map-server.exe when it's mapserver.exe. same for login and char server. this could explain the errors some people are getting. There are two ways to fix this. either 1- rename mapserver.exe to map-server.exe, loginserver.exe to login-server.exe and charserver.exe to char-server.exe, which is what i've done since it's a LOT easier. 2- edit the hooks in all the batch files to adapt to the names. is that it? so i've been going around the conf folder and changing stuff around in every *_athena.conf file, and then changing the sql server to my ip for nothing? it's still not working for me. i intend to put a server on my permanently-offline 10-computer lanroom. like i said, i've been going around changing ips here and there, and i got all the server applications to see each other. But now i can't get any client, even on the same machine as the server, to connect. i've done what you suggested here already it for some reason it just doesn't work. there isn't even a log of an attempted connection on the login server screen. what gives? ah, another question. what should i put in the data.ini file for it to read the data folder before reading the GRF? it currently contains this: [Data] //1=rAthena2017PRE.grf // see readme.txt in PRERE/ folder 2=rAthena2017.grf 3=pallets.grf 4=data.grf 5=rdata.grf [/code] would this work? [Data] //1=rAthena2017PRE.grf // see readme.txt in PRERE/ folder 1=data/ 2=rAthena2017.grf 3=pallets.grf 4=data.grf 5=rdata.grf
