Not sure is it me but i've tried close2 yet it doesn't seem to work the way i wanted to, it doesn't give any apples at all

Here's my point of view of answering your questions. 1-How do you attract players from other servers to play yours? Firstly, advertising in RMS, xtremetop100 is a great way to start, but aside from that, imagine if you have a default FLUX CP theme compared to a great website theme, which will you prefer? And also a forum that's always look the same with lacking features compared to a forum that's really beautiful and full with features. That's something to think about. To me, in order to attract people in, it's always the First impression that pays off. Aside from that would have to be customs that other servers doesn't have. Example custom maps, items, events, and perhaps storyline as well! just like the one i'm writing 2-Why people quitting from server and want to try other one? From the many reviews I've read, it's not because your server is horrible (aside from connectivity issues) it's always the GM that plays the major part of a server. If you give an item to your friend and other people realize it, you're gonna have a hard time and people will end up not trusting you as you'll be labeled as a *corrupted GM*. Donations also play a big role! so don't abuse it just to earn a quick buck! (Trust me, i've experienced this during close beta, when I had GM powers for the first time, I was giving items like it was free and the server went into Chaos, thank god it's only close beta!) 3-How to make your server adv it self? Again this comes back to RMS and xtremetop100, but still, best advertisement comes from word of mouth. As long you're dedicated to your server and the player realizes it, they'll spread the word eventually and your server will be advertised by itself. 4-How to make people happy on playing your server for long term? Updates! This is the main reason of people playing your server. putting in new quests that is hard to finish will really bring the fun of your server! Having new events, GM events, and also new quests will really spice up the fun. If not, players will be coming in and telling you, "GM I'm bored". 5-Should i be objective driven? To me at least, what you require most aside from an Objective would be dedication. Whether you want to continue even though your player counts go down to a 1 digit number. Take it as a lesson and continue, as sooner or later you'll strive!

Doesn't work, it only displays you take your apple that's all. doesn't go anything further than that.

Hi Guys, Currently i have a small request for a script to be made. Example would be there is an npc that gives you an apple which will be refreshed every 15 minutes, it will also display how long before the next apple is possible to gain. Within that 15 minutes, the npc will just be saying to wait till 15 minutes from where the last apple was taken. Hope it's enough information.

Hi there guys, Would just like to ask, is it possible to play private RO with Mac? as i know it's supported and i did browse around using google and found some sites that managed to play RO in mac with little problems. So is any rAthena users here using Mac that can clarify?

Thanks Olrox! It works superbly! Basically to summarize your steps, Make a copy of 586 version and 620 of your map, once that's done, then copy the 620 rsw towards 586 rsw then save with 586 and it works! Thanks again for everything! Problem solved!

Hi Olrox, I did not use any custom rsm model (to be honest i dont even know how haha) i used all the models in data.grf and rdata.grf only. anyways, let me try and see if it works. edit: It works! I managed to open it back in 586! however, i'm not sure of the custom rsm model as i honestly did not add anything out of the ordinary. What steps should i proceed for this?

Hey Adel, here's the image that happens once i use 586 to open, do note that if i open with 620 it works fine.

Hi There Adel, Thanks for the reply, however as i stated earlier the map cannot be opened by browedit rev 586, therefore i'm unable to save in 586. Syouji has tried it as well since i did send the map to him earlier on, so... i'm stuck with 620 currently ._. Any other methods that could solve this?

Hi guys, i understand that this is a common problem, and i've already edited my map to water level -20 however when i move around it still happens for the black patch of spot, any help perhaps? here's a picture to see what i mean, when you move then the textures will come back >_> but the black patch will follow wherever you go lol. I've saved in rev 620 if it helps, this map previously had issued with opening on 586 which Syouji recommended.

The % above tells that all IP addresses can loginIf you want connections only from 192.168.0.1 or localhost put there. See Step 5 in http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/how-do-i-enable-remote-access-to-mysql-database-server.html for more details. Hi Digos, I believe i know what might be causing it, but i don't really know to change it. As currently i'm using VMWare to use 2 OS, (Not yet inserting into the VPS as of now), So my windows 8 OS does have mysql running which i believe conflicts my CentOS 6.4 in my VMWare. As it uses my Apache Port automatically, 443 which i had to change manually for it to work. Therefore i think MySQL Workbench would be the same. Only problem is that i can't change it due to permission issues with the folder or perhaps i don't know how ._.

Well i managed to install the MySQL part. However it's slightly different from windows though, as windows MySQL provides a default MySQL Connection already, known as MySQLForExcelConnection something like that, for linux's version, it doesn't have any connections there and i'm getting errors all over the place stating that it can't connect to each other. i'm always getting this error on MySQL, i can't seem to find a way to fix this.

Although i'm not at home therefore i can't test directly on this. However, what about installing mySQL Workbench for CentOS 6? I managed to google up some links that provides links to download this. Would it be possible to go for this? On a side note, Thanks for all the support you've given me so far Digos!

Thanks Digos for providing an insight, however correct me if i'm wrong but i would need visual access in order to enter MySQL and check on my map/login/char server is that right? Currently i'm gonna run on dual OS (windows 8 + CentOS 6.4) and hopefully this thing out lol, right now it's installing the packages and i guess once i get familiarised with this it shouldn't be any problem on the other side. Okay here's another update, i manage to rundown most of the things CentOS provides. However currently the only issue i'm facing now would be MySQL settings. How do i enter MySQL inside CentOS? I already followed all the guide but i understand the password is still s1/p1 how do i change that?

Hi guys, currently i'm actually testing a VPS server for Ragnarok online. To be honest, i'm not fond of linux at all especially this is my first time hosting on a VPS Server. Currently from what my knowledge is, Putty is meant as a terminal to connect from client to server. And then using this putty, we should be able to download some screening software such as VNC or x2Go, FreeNX. However right now i'm stuck on choosing the OS that's best fit for RO. Is it possible if someone could guide me along the way? As in posting perhaps some lines or any guides that would help someone that has lack of knowledge towards Linux? Thanks, TM ------ These are the OS that i can select for my VPS, but really not sure on which one to go for. Additional Info: I have root access if that helps.

Well this is definitely true, but the discussion in here does help me out on my request though! Thanks alot for the assistance and information provided so forth! Regards, TM

Ah! I never thought of it! Thanks for this! This would definitely help out in terms my request xD. but what i was more or less saying would be that example i go payon dungeon, i killed a familiar and it dropped a knife stating (potential item) therefore once i unidentified it, it'll automatically placed the cards inside of maxhp+15% or str+3 depending haha on a random basis based on the item scripts that i've placed in.

Thanks for the information! I'll look it up and see how it goes! But if let's say i have one more side request... cause actually i got confused in the end and ended up putting the request wrongly lol, if you've played maplestory, each equipment that could be a potential item. Therefore this item must be identified and once unidentified, it'll show new stats coming out like max hp+15% str+9% all stats+3% something like that. is it possible to script this out? Regards, TM

Thanks icabit but this requires source modification haha, Hopefully there's a method to do this without going through source modification. I appreciate the suggestion though! It does help! Creating all the items in the DB would seem really hurtful lol, since if let's say i have 20 varieties my db is gonna explode i guess haha

Hi there guys, Not sure if this has been asked before as i couldn't find any similarities of what i wanted. Well, here's how it goes. Example is i have a Knife. Then, when i bring it into a special refiner or something, It'll add in custom stats into it. Example i want my knife to have a + 5 AGI, then it'll be placed inside there permanently. It can only be done once, is this possible? or would you require more information? do let me know thanks! Regards, TM

Hi syouji, thanks for clearing the lightmaps, but i cant seem to get it open in 586 on my end, it still fails. I guess we can only use 620 to complete the map? (but i feel insecure lol cause 620 gives certain error for the models ._.)

Added my map inside, hopefully someone can give it a try and see if it works ;(

yeah, i remember, currently i'm using 586, that syouji's video recommends, and the last actions i did was editing my lights. i was putting 4 lightbulbs in, however on the 3rd lightbulb i set the range to 50, but it dint change, so i thought of saving and exiting and re-editing since i needed to quit to untick the shadow, so i place the next one (4th) and save and exit. the moment i exit and wanted to re-enter in, it pops out not responding every time i load that map in browedit.

Hi guys, i'm having an issue right now where i after i saved, i used browedit to open the map and the map gives a not responding error each time i open it ._. anyway to solve this? Edit : I've attached my map, hopefully someone and open and amend it if possible! My Custom Maps.rar
