After hopping from server to server, I found that most servers had the same bugs that most people would suggest to be fixed after the server officially opened. I started to compile a list and post my list on the forums before the start of every server I played on. Being young at the time, 18 or 19, I thought maybe I could make a server, not knowing how much work really went into it. The seed was planted, though, and it stayed buried for a long time until about four years ago. I had just got done playing on a 1x server on renewal. It was fun and challenging in a few ways I didn't expect, mainly on the tedious spectrum and being used to autoloot. Unfortunately, the server died. A player from that server showed me how to set up my own instance of RO on my own computer and I could modify it to my liking but it needed a name. I wanted to make a good server, as most of us do, but I was no longer cocky. I knew being an admin was hard but I wanted to strive for something better than okay, something... decent. And thus the name was born. That preamble out of the way, I decided to just roll with what I was most comfortable with. Pre-renewal with some, pretty standard, tweaks and most of the usual suspects fixed. I taught myself script, so I'm pretty bad at it and most likely make redundant scripts but I've been able to get away with doing what I need to and, if I can't, I beg on these forums. It had to have BG and everybody loved eAmod BG, so I looked up the scripts for that and tried to get it to work. It needed some tweaks but I managed and, as far as I can test with one person running ten clients, it seemed to work properly with some play testing. Then I turned my eye to some normal features I felt were lacking: Pets, picking up loot, new content, etc. It was around this point I started modifying the src. I'm no where near even half decent at src modification but I've been able to put together how to get an idea of what is happening. It's allowed me to really make some decent modifications. I brought back pets fighting (not sure if that's enabled in renewal now), added arealoot with some bothering of Playtester, and started tweaking some renewal content. I've managed to get what I feel are some decent tweaks to New World, Dicastes, Mora, Old Glast Heim and Dewata. I implemented the pre-renewal Brasilis with some minor modifications. I've implemented all renewal cards, excluding maybe four or so. The amount of random tweaks I've made to this server I feel really make it stand out but I'm too worried, anxious and just scared to release it. I came close one time but then maintaining a website, finding the correct server to host it on and just the pressure of being an official admin was too much and I canceled. My changelog is pretty detailed and I've been adamant about making sure I write down every change or fix I make to the server. If you'd like to discuss, especially my unfinished ideas, I'm glad to hear feedback. Here's the link: https://pastebin.com/YCf0vnXp

I think that requires src modifications.

If I want to talk about a server I've been working on for years, is that allowed? I honestly doubt I'll ever officially open it but it would help with feedback, as I can get tunnel visioned after not having anybody to talk to my ideas about

I've been trying to get a new status effect I've called SC_BIFROST for Mora Berry and I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I figured I'll implement it in the same vein as Pinguicula's Fruit Jam and such items. I've done the following: battle.c: if (bl->type == BL_MOB) { uint8 i; if ( ((sce=sc->data[SC_MANU_ATK]) && (flag&BF_WEAPON)) || ((sce=sc->data[SC_MANU_MATK]) && (flag&BF_MAGIC)) ) { for (i=0;ARRAYLENGTH(mob_manuk)>i;i++) { if (((TBL_MOB*)bl)->mob_id==mob_manuk[i]) { damage += damage * sce->val1 / 100; break; } } } if ( ((sce=sc->data[SC_SPL_ATK]) && (flag&BF_WEAPON)) || ((sce=sc->data[SC_SPL_MATK]) && (flag&BF_MAGIC)) ) { for (i=0;ARRAYLENGTH(mob_splendide)>i;i++) { if (((TBL_MOB*)bl)->mob_id==mob_splendide[i]) { damage += damage * sce->val1 / 100; break; } } } if ( (sce=sc->data[SC_BIFROST]) ) { for (i=0;ARRAYLENGTH(mob_bifrost)>i;i++) { if (((TBL_MOB*)bl)->mob_id==mob_bifrost[i]) { damage += damage * sce->val1 / 100; break; } } } } battle.c2: if (src->type == BL_MOB) { int i; if (sc->data[SC_MANU_DEF]) { for (i=0;ARRAYLENGTH(mob_manuk)>i;i++) { if (mob_manuk[i]==((TBL_MOB*)src)->mob_id) { damage -= damage * sc->data[SC_MANU_DEF]->val1 / 100; break; } } } if (sc->data[SC_SPL_DEF]) { for (i=0;ARRAYLENGTH(mob_splendide)>i;i++) { if (mob_splendide[i]==((TBL_MOB*)src)->mob_id) { damage -= damage * sc->data[SC_SPL_DEF]->val1 / 100; break; } } } if (sc->data[SC_BIFROST]) { for (i=0;ARRAYLENGTH(mob_bifrost)>i;i++) { if (mob_bifrost[i]==((TBL_MOB*)src)->mob_id) { damage -= damage * sc->data[SC_BIFROST]->val1 / 500; break; } } } } status.c: StatusIconChangeTable[SC_MANU_ATK] = SI_MANU_ATK; StatusIconChangeTable[SC_MANU_DEF] = SI_MANU_DEF; StatusIconChangeTable[SC_SPL_ATK] = SI_SPL_ATK; StatusIconChangeTable[SC_SPL_DEF] = SI_SPL_DEF; StatusIconChangeTable[SC_MANU_MATK] = SI_MANU_MATK; StatusIconChangeTable[SC_SPL_MATK] = SI_SPL_MATK; StatusIconChangeTable[SC_BIFROST] = SI_BIFROST; status.c2: case SC_MANU_DEF: case SC_MANU_ATK: case SC_MANU_MATK: val2 = 1; // Manuk group break; case SC_SPL_DEF: case SC_SPL_ATK: case SC_SPL_MATK: val2 = 2; // Splendide group break; case SC_BIFROST: val2 = 3; break; status.h: SC_BIFROST, SC_MAX, status.h2: SI_BIFROST = 1018, SI_MAX, Inserted it into three points where it is also implemented in skill.c under Banishing Buster, Dispell and Clearance. mob.c: const int mob_manuk[20] = { MOBID_TATACHO, MOBID_CENTIPEDE, MOBID_NEPENTHES, MOBID_HILLSRION, MOBID_HARDROCK_MOMMOTH, MOBID_G_TATACHO, MOBID_G_HILLSRION, MOBID_CENTIPEDE_LARVA, MOBID_HORN_SCARABA, MOBID_HORN_SCARABA2, MOBID_ANTLER_SCARABA, MOBID_RAKE_SCARABA, MOBID_QUEEN_SCARABA, MOBID_HORN_SCARABA_EGG, MOBID_HORN_SCARABA2_EGG, MOBID_ANTLER_SCARABA_EGG, MOBID_RAKE_SCARABA_EGG, MOBID_DOLOMEDES, MOBID_G_ANTLER_SCARABA, MOBID_G_RAKE_SCARABA }; const int mob_splendide[17] = { MOBID_TENDRILRION, MOBID_CORNUS, MOBID_NAGA, MOBID_LUCIOLA_VESPA, MOBID_PINGUICULA, MOBID_LOST_DRAGON, MOBID_POM_SPIDER, MOBID_ANGRA_MANTIS, MOBID_PARUS, MOBID_LITTLE_FATUM, MOBID_MIMING, MOBID_DRACO, MOBID_DRACO_EGG, MOBID_PINGUICULA_D, MOBID_AQUA_ELEMENTAL, MOBID_RATA, MOBID_DUNEYRR }; const int mob_bifrost[6] = { MOBID_POM_SPIDER, MOBID_LOST_DRAGON, MOBID_ANGRA_MANTIS, MOBID_PARUS, MOBID_LITTLE_FATUM, MOBID_MIMING }; mob.h: extern const int mob_manuk[20]; extern const int mob_splendide[17]; extern const int mob_bifrost[6]; itemdb: 12574,Mora_Berry,Mora Berry,2,1000,,50,,,,,0xFFFFFFFF,7,2,,,,,,{ specialeffect2 EF_POTION_BERSERK; sc_start SC_BIFROST,1800000,250; },{},{} Pinguicula's Fruit Jam and those items work fine after the modifications I made to them but this new one doesn't. Am I missing a spot I should have added some lines of code to?

Oh, that's unfortunate. Thanks.

I repurposed an old item, item ID 542, to be another usable item that heals the player. Currently the item has a rising white aura effect on use. How do I change the effect to something like an orange potion's orange splash on use?

While doing the sign quest, no alterations to the script, and I got this error when trying to spam enter during the queen of the dead's spam of effects, where she gives you the Lucifer's Lament, (see picture below) in the console. This bug made it so that I was not able to continue the dialog and the client became unresponsive, requiring a relog to be able to function again. Going back to the Queen of the dead and re-talk to her did not see a repeat of this error. Can this just randomly happen every now and then?

Figured it out. Turns out if your Message_Size was larger than default, 79 + 1, it crashed your map server.

When I try to open a buying store, my map server crashes giving me the error: --------------------------- Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library --------------------------- Debug Error! Program: ...s\User\Desktop\Jordan's Folder\Backups\rathena\map-server.exe Module: ...s\User\Desktop\Jordan's Folder\Backups\rathena\map-server.exe File: c:\users\user\desktop\jordan's folder\backups\rathena\src\map\clif.c Line: 16826 Run-Time Check Failure #2 - Stack around the variable 'buf' was corrupted. (Press Retry to debug the application) --------------------------- Abort Retry Ignore --------------------------- And the code it is pointing out in clif.c is: void clif_buyingstore_entry(struct map_session_data* sd) { uint8 buf[86]; WBUFW(buf,0) = 0x814; WBUFL(buf,2) = sd->bl.id; memcpy(WBUFP(buf,6), sd->message, MESSAGE_SIZE); clif_send(buf, packet_len(0x814), &sd->bl, AREA_WOS); } < Line 16826 Any ideas? I have no idea why it's doing it.

If the title was confusing, I will elaborate. When you kill a mob and that mob has 0 experience, the player will gain 1 experience instead of not gaining any. Is there a way to remove this 1 experience gain?

Hiya. I'm not sure why this happens but when Sharp Shooting has a cast time, you will see the words "Sharp Shooting" above the character's head on usage but when Sharp Shooting does not have a cast time, you will see nothing displayed above the character's head on usage.

Hey. When a player is a 3rd job class that is above 99 and then you change that player into a 2nd job, @job will reset their stats. Is there a way to avoid this? I figured it out. Close please~

Thank you~

Is there a handle for Job Sprites? With the new 3rd Jobs sprites from jRO, is there a way to have an npc change the job sprite a player currently has via a script command in an npc, for example, like the stylist?

Thank you, that worked! I did have to change the buffer to 512 for it to not give me errors, though.

Hey, just curious if there was a way to add an @command that would call a variable linked to the player that uses it. For example, I have a variable set whenever somebody gains an achievement and the variable is the achievement points they gain, which can later be used at a pointshop. What I'm curious is, can I somehow make a command that will tell that player what their variable is set to? So they can check how many achievement points they have whenever they want.

When I don't have enough of the variable I have listed to the Pointshop, it will tell me I do not have enough of the variable but it will also tell me, "You do not have enough zeny." Is there a way I can remove this line?

That worked perfectly. Thank you. ^^

What I'm trying to do is, I want to set a variable on the entire map when a player finishes an instance. For example, Nidhoggur's Instance. Is there a way that when he dies, everybody on that map can be set with a variable? I tried $variable but that doesn't work.

Is it possible, provided one raises the max level, to see the 3rd job Aura when that player reaches the new max level with non-3rd job classes? For example, can a Sniper reach 99, see the default 99 aura, then level up to 175 and see the 3rd job aura?

Anyway to fix it? Edit: Found a temporary solution. Ctrl + Alt + Del while RO client is open fixes it. If you have Trilinear on, it will crash the client, so make sure to turn it off beforehand. Otherwise, it's okay.

Just curious as to what causes those dots. It is not just on the screenshot, it is what I see in-game, as well. It has nothing to do with the server or the client, as I have two computers I can test with and the other computer does not get those black dots.

Hey. Just curious what the programs required to run rAthena from Desktop were. I remember there were three: An SQL program that held the data for the server, a Microsoft program that allowed you to compile/recompile src code and a program that allowed you to pull the files from rAthena's Git to update the files. I'm just curious as to what the name of the SQL program was and the Microsoft Program was. I had a good setup running on my old PC but that one died unexpectedly and cannot for the life of me remember the name of those programs. Any help is appreciated. ^^

Alright, so what I have so far is: case UNT_WHISTLE: case UNT_ASSASSINCROSS: case UNT_POEMBRAGI: case UNT_APPLEIDUN: case UNT_HUMMING: case UNT_DONTFORGETME: case UNT_FORTUNEKISS: case UNT_SERVICEFORYOU: if (sg->src_id==bl->id && !(sc && sc->data[SC_SPIRIT] && sc->data[SC_SPIRIT]->val2 == SL_BARDDANCER)) return 0; if (!sc) return 0; if (!sce) sc_start4(ss, bl,type,100,sg->skill_lv,sg->val1,sg->val2,0,-1); else if (sce->val4 == 1) { //Readjust timers since the effect will not last long. sce->val4 = 0; //remove the mark that we stepped out delete_timer(sce->timer, status_change_timer); sce->timer = add_timer(tick+sg->limit, status_change_timer, bl->id, -1); } break; I have a fair grasp on what this means. sce = status change end. Val4 means it's started but if the player re-enters song effect, they get the buff replenished. That's all fine but what I'm having issues with is here: case BA_POEMBRAGI: case BA_WHISTLE: case BA_ASSASSINCROSS: case BA_APPLEIDUN: case DC_HUMMING: case DC_DONTFORGETME: case DC_FORTUNEKISS: case DC_SERVICEFORYOU: if (sce) { //NOTE: It'd be nice if we could get the skill_lv for a more accurate extra time, but alas... //not possible on our current implementation. sce->val4 = 1; //Store the fact that this is a "reduced" duration effect. sce->timer = add_timer(tick+20000, status_change_timer, bl->id, type); } break; Now, I have it so that players lose the effect after 20 seconds, which is standard. I deleted the delete_timer because it would shell out errors with a -1 effect timer. The effect still ends properly but what I want to do is, I want to get a sc here to replace the timer with 20 seconds when the player leaves the song effect so people know when it will end. I already have it that when they re-enter they will get the timer replenished but I don't know how to get a sc_start in this function without it erroring. Help. =X
