I think the most user-friendly way to do this is by using MySQL Workbench. This is what I am using to edit character and account data.

Hello MarkStuck When you patch your client make sure to check this option. Open your grf file and go to data/luafiles514/service_korea and open ExternalSettings_kr.lub and edit the following: (Or simply just insert these before the function GetTableIntValueForC) EmblemDataUrl = { Upload = "http://127.0.0.1:8888/emblem/upload", Download = "http://127.0.0.1:8888/emblem/download" } Don't forget to change the port and the IP address that your webserver is using.

Thank you @WhiteEagle, after some tinkering I was able to setup a working pre-re server and client side. However, I do have another question. How can I force the client to read the lua/lub files from the GRF? With my current setup on the client side, both exe of my renewal and pre-renewal are reading the lua/lub files from the System folder.

Hello, I am using MySQL Workbench 8 and its working fine. If you need a guide on how to setup with MySQL 8, you may follow this guide. https://rathena.org/board/topic/111830-tutorial-video-edition-how-to-setup-rathena-and-run-ragnarok-updated-2018-7-28/

Okay, so after some searching through the forums these two topics were able to help me setup a Renewal and Pre-Renewal server. So my next question is, since I have setup on a Renewal client side it seems that is having a conflict with some of the new maps particularly Izlude (please see screenshot below). Is there any way around about this? Can I put the old Izlude back on my grf but different map name?

Hello! First of all thank you for this forum, I was able to setup a renewal server from the ground up and play with a couple of my friends so I know a thing or two already about how this works. Now, my question is, is it possible to setup 2 server and just using my current client to connect to both of the server? I still would like to keep my current server which is renewal but I would like to try pre-renewal as well. I know I have to setup a separate SQL db for it and have a separate server files but I would like to know if this is possible? If yes, how? The picture below is just for attention.

Hello, there are a couple of things that you need before you can host your own server to everyone. Check if you have a public IP or static IP - this is very important as you won't be able to host a server if you have NATed IP address. Check if these ports 5121, 6121, and 6900 are open on your end. (You may search for guide on google on how to check these) If you don't have a public IP, you will definitely need a VPS to host your server. (There's a topic here somewhere in rAthena of the list of recommended VPS) >> Take note that this will cost you some $$$ If you're just planning to setup a server to play with your friends, you may use Hamachi or ZeroTier One. These will enable you to setup a virtual network that your friends can connect to. (This is not recommended if you're planning on setting up a full time private server)
