Yes 2013 is recommended. I've tested (right before my huge rant) 2013-08-07aRagexe Yet exact the same issue. But thanks to everyone who tried to help. It's really not personal, it's just driving me crazy I've realised that 2014-02-05b isn't even supported. But only after checking all files on my own. (the missing packet version with all those question marks etc... Yet hercules has a complete packet db in their source already) According to the rAthena forums it looked as the most promising and up to date client. I've first tried 2014-10-22 because you stated in the news that it's now officialy supported. Yet that client crashes right away so i tried the next one. That's what i'm trying to say. It's hard to find out with what you're good to go. The topic "official supported clients list" is SUPER outdated. My data.grf is fully up to date. I've tested 6 different FullClient setups. (also not fully up to date) with and without rdata.grf With old luas latest luas luas released on client release date diffed using NEMO tested through all diffs if one may be broken Tested WITH and WITHOUT packet obfuscation. (client diff incuding source code) I've wasted 2 weeks already. as always

Ok found the issue. For some reason it seems to work different than my old version. There was an issue with the char_ip setting. It works on my live server though.... at least i've found it. After another few hours of testing and debugging i've found out that the packet_db from rAthena is completly messed up. I had to manualy fix some things for the client 2014-02-05b The packet keys were totally, also one packet, while it seems to contain a few more packets which probably shouldn't be there, i don't know. So after fixing my packet_db on my own, i was able to get up to the map server without any rejection of a "wrong packet" error. Yet the client crashes right away.

Just noticed that my login server disconnects me again RIGHT AFTER a successfull login. Anyone knows what's wrong here? [status]: Connection of the account 'testaccount' accepted. [info]: Closed connection from '62.***.**.**'.

I wasn't able to get 2014 clients running. 02-05 times out when connecting to the char server. char server doesn't give any response. Yet the 10-22 crashes right after trying to log in. So it's not even able to send anything to the login server,

Ok... Ones upon a few years, i see myself forced to update the client of course. However every single ******* time it's the same ********. So please, is anyone out there with some great advice, help and kindness? I mean, it's quite simple. I try to avoid it as long as i can, BUT when i finally decided to update it, i want to be as up to date as possible. I saw that rAthena recently implemented 2014 client support. So i gave it a shot, and failed hard as always. I've searched myself through the whole wide web, including hercules. But there's no real answer to all my questions. I've tested 2014-02-05b (set to db ver 46 if i got that correct) 2014-10-16 2014-02-05b, is able connect to the login server, but char server times out on the client, (no response on char server at all) 2014-10-16 crashes right after entering login information (no error message) So please anyone. I need information on: Most up to date, stable and usable client for live environment. Every single hint on all those freaking bugs and traps i'm about to fall in. (broken diffs, broken ingame features etc...) I'm getting to old for this... /sigh

I've tested now over 20 different variations to reduce the output damage of gate of hell. with no success. no matter what i freaking change in the source code, the damage is always the same. Only one time when i've messed with the sstatus->max_hp, i've managed to go over 999999999 dmg per hit. Could please someone support kitty14 and me with this case? I've never had such issues before unless with this skill. Currently gate of hell does mostly a one hit, or needs to be casted about max 3 times to kill any player. (server with 200 max stats which allows higher max HP) I've had balanced gate of hell before within the skill.c back then, when i was able to simply set a max cap on the skillratio. But now, since the code has been rewritten and moved to battle.c, i can't manage to reduce it's damage anymore.

Well, but in diablo you're able to either create a normal, or a hardcore character. They are not related to each other at all! Which means, you can't trade any items nor store any items from a normal to a hardcore character. And any other progress is also NOT shared. Which in the end, would make much sense if you're willing to have both "normal and HC" Because if a hardcore char dies in Diablo, all items and char progress itself is completly lost forever. The only thing that stays are your achievements. So you would have to decide, wheter or not a dead char shall be able to use storage by command or whatever... to save their items. good luck on your script, i like the idea

you should post this on the harmony forums, not rAthena

i've spread the word, we should gain quite a few more votes

tested all of them, no const.txt reload

Is there any way to reload the const.txt db file without to restart the server? I've tried all reload commands but const.txt does not seem to be included somewhere.

yea just noticed i posted into the complete wrong topic, sry about that xD and there's seriously a config for that? awesome, thanks for the help

I'm also having some delay issues using 2012-04-18aRagexeRE Is there any way to get this fixed? And may these problem also be bound with the stupid integrated mouse freedom? How can we ensure that the client uses our custom mouse freedom plugin?

wrong topic, sry...

You would have to hex the client for such a change. It's possible yes, however the old "adjust font size" diff is no more available. So if you want to realize that, search for someone who has experience with hexing. To make it easier, search the old adjust font size diff from the older clients, and send that to the person who will hex it for you.

Hey guys I've seen about 2 other people with the same issue, but they've neither recieved a good answer, nor any real help. Does anyone know a solution to this problem? I've reported it already, but maybe someone already knows what's going on here: http://rathena.org/board/tracker/issue-8042-packet-0x017f-causing-the-server-to-end-in-an-endless-loop/ Looking forward to some support, thank you.

Hey guys I'm having this issue actually since over 5 years. My TipOfTheDay is not triggered even when the checkbock is checked to show up on startup. Also The TipOfTheDay does not show any info, it's just an empty window, even when my tipoftheday file is correctly configured. Tried also all different file names such as tipOfTheDay.txt tipOfTheDay_e.txt tipOfTheDay_j.txt tipOfDay.txt And i'm having now the same issue with the GuildTip.exe file Can anyone give me advice on this one? I wasn't able to find anything related to this issue when using the search function. Currently using 2012-04-18aRagexeRE But i've had the same issue also with much much older clients. Both files are located in the main folder of my RO installation.

Weil du die fallsche setup.exe file verwendest. Da hat sich einiges geändert, es kommt ganz auf die version deines Clients drauf an. Falls du einen neueren verwenden solltest, dann liest dieser Client die Settings nicht mehr aus der Windows Registry sondern aus einfach Lua files. RO/savedata/OptionInfo.lua Nun brauchst du auch eine neue Setup.exe file die diese Settings auch neu da rein speichert. Entweder den neuen offiziellen. (Ghostring als Icon) oder mit dem OpenSetup hier, das allgemein sowiso am besten ist: http://rathena.org/board/topic/63177-ro-open-setup-v266210-last-updated-20130430/ Der supportet glaub ich auch noch die alte registry savings mit der Setting unten links. Viel Spass ^^

works pretty good, thank you

any plans to include the official patcher as well, like in KPatcher? So we are able to setup a second patch plan, which will be executed after downloading the current patches.

Can't wait to get my hands on. Is there an open alpha/beta release planned?

Hey guys I had a hard time today getting my custom items to work with my new client using 2012-04-18aRagexeRE. First thing i was wondering, why i would have to edit the System/kroption.lub for editing items, rather than the itemInfo.lub ??? That's weird... And then there's the view id limit. I was using view ids starting from 1800 It would be great if i could increase this limit, but there's no diff available using the WeeDiffGenerator. Could you guys help me out to find the hex and diff it manually?

no comment...

I made detailed reports since the release of this patcher, also was in contact with her through PMs. But, the patcher is really a mess now. The patcher became better and better, until the day when they've started to rewrite the whole code 2 times. It's really no fun to retest everything and just see that 80% of all reported bugs/improvements are just gone. All the last releases are really not working at all, the patcher does not connect, nor patch or do anything at all. I'm trying to give constructive feedback and reports. But it's hard to do if nothing works anymore since about v2.4. And i repeat to Tiera: It would be great to see your setup, maybe it's just caused due lack of information and missing files. It would also be great to see some answers on my questions.
