[How to check if the character are in Autotrade with mysql]

Check if the character ID has 'autotrade' = 1 in table 'vendings'

[How organize brute-force protection for the game-server?]

You can probably create a Fail2Ban recipe.. that's what I would do

[17310 vs 13724 a.k.a 48c2cf2dec (HP RATE)]

According to the commit notes, they are

100% official for level 1 to 150

And everything after that is a continuation of the increases from 99-150.

[17310 vs 13724 a.k.a 48c2cf2dec (HP RATE)]

You can try editing this in core.h

/// Uncomment to enable the job base HP/SP table (job_basehpsp_db.txt)
#define HP_SP_TABLES

Comment it out to disable HP/SP tables.

You're probably referring to the HP/SP changes in this commit:

[Flux Error on module purchase]

It's not a unix permission issue. Your Flux setting does not have the correct username/password/database information.

Make sure they are correct and that you can connect using a normal mysql client.

[Mac Ban]

MAC address is non-routable. And someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think a default client sends MAC info to the server. I believe you need to create a hook for that.

[Moving a character from an account to another one]

Sure, you can do it via a script, but again, I wouldn't recommend it.

Try it and see how well it works and let us know

[About Pony Hosting]

Memory used does not mean memory used by your login/char/map servers.

Memory is also used for OS caching, paging, among other things, so it will increase.

 

The problem with most VPS is CPU contention ratio - that is, how many other VPSes are sharing the physical CPU cores.

My guess is, if it's not a memory issue (which I doubt), then it's likely a CPU resource issue.

 

Lastly, run some I/O tests to see what your I/O speeds are. If your system is paging from lack of physical RAM, AND your I/O is slow, then you'll experience major slowness.

[Moving a character from an account to another one]

Also make sure the char slot in the new account is not already taken. If so, change the char slot.

 

Personally, I find it is best to not do things like this on a running server. If you do - make sure the character leaves guild and party, and unfriends all friends.

[Latest Git Unknown Packet ver]

Make sure you enable or disable packet obfuscation support based on  your client configuration.

[Can i use mariadb instead mysql?]

MariaDB is a fork of MySQL - it should work fine. Report back to us if it does not

[How to make 20130814 Client exe to type another language]

Did you ever figure this out?

I don't think newer clients support Multi Language hex.

 

Anyone able to get a recent (2013+) client working with multiple language input support?

[donation problem]

I would recommend turning off Cloudflare complete when testing.

Perhaps also try a live donation test instead of using Paypal's sandbox?

 

Double check to make sure you are, indeed, using the latest Flux from our GIT repository, as the previous revisions did not process Paypal transactions properly.

 

Also, make sure you are testing with the default theme.

[donation problem]

Cloudflare is probably interfering.

Try bypassing Cloudflare and see if it works.

[Unknown Packet 0x464d even after Skip Packet Obfuscation]

Did you disabled Packet Obfuscation in your source?

https://rathena.org/board/topic/101092-packet-obfuscation-support/

 

#define PACKET_OBFUSCATION

 

Recompile afterwards.

[About disabling certain commands!]

You would have to modify the source for that.

 

Maybe you can get creative with script command bindatcmd which does a class check before executing the requested atcommand.

[Do I have to recompile when I move to another host?]

make sql is depreciated and will be removed in the future.

make server is essentially the same.

 

yes, your commands above are correct

[Error when compiling?]

Make sure you have mysql-dev installed from yum/rpm (or if you are using a newer version of Centos - mariadb-dev)

 

It also appears as if the configure script cannot determine the OS?

"WARNING: you should use --build, --host, --target"

You might have to tell the configure program your system architecture.

[announce to dispbottom help!]

attach to players first, the dispbottom.

[Disconnect command (send player to login page)]

@kick?

[Block player from moving and talk with npcs]

You could use one of the @options (perhaps @option 1 - use @option to see all allowable options)

[Is playing rathena private server illegal?]

Well, the Internet is not the greatest legal forum - do not get legal advice from random people like me.

 

That said - it's probably against Gravity's terms of service to modify the game client, and the client have anti-hack features built in to prevent this. However, how would Gravity know if you modified its game client if you don't use it to connect to an official server, and it never communicates with Gravity?

 

Modifying the client is 'okay' in that Gravity will never know about it, unless you distribute it, which is against international laws.

[Is playing rathena private server illegal?]

There is nothing to say that you cannot modify your own client (except perhaps the game client's Terms of Service) but that's hardly international law.

 

However, the distribution of Gravity's game client, modified to work with private servers, is against international trademark and copyright laws as per the Berne Convention. Gravity's RO client is 'free' to download and use, not 'free' to modify and re-distribute.
