Client 20120410aRagexe gives blank error

[ihazbackup]

Hi, I'm currently trying to get client 20120410 working on my server. Here's my client information:

 

- 2012-04-10aRagexe diffed using Nemo

- Patches included

 

8 Custom Window Title

15 Disable HShield (Recommended)

28 Increase Headgear ViewID

30 Increase Zoom Out 50%

36 Read msgstringtable.txt (Recommended)

37 Read questid2display.txt (Recommended)

41 Disable Nagle Algorithm (Recommended)

44 Translate Client (Recommended)

46 Use Normal Guild Brackets

47 Use Ragnarok Icon

48 Use Plain Text Descriptions (Recommended)

49 Enable Multiple GRFs (Recommended)

50 Skip License Screen

61 Disable Packet Encryption (Recommended)

64 @ Bug Fix (Recommended)

73 Remove Hourly Announce (Recommended)

97 Cancel to Login Window (Recommended)

100 Disable Multiple Windows

 

The problem is, it gives blank error whenever I executed my client. Here's the screenshot

 

I used the data, lub files, and client file from this thread: https://rathena.org/board/topic/70962-recommended-client-setup/

 

I've tried re-doing the grf making, re-diffing, etc.. but it still gives the same error

 

Sorry if this is a noob question. I've just started messing with rathena server and client

Any help is appreciated. THX

hm i tried this too, and different diffs, always same error, maybe its not the exe that is broken, it could be one of the dlls which crush the exe after trying to load them.

 

no the dll's seems to be fine, i replaced them all with the one from my working 2013 client, same error.

 

there is something else broken, i copied the exe in my working 2013 indeed of the client from that guide.

the exe starts normaly and i can try to login. but idk what is broken in that client folder from the guide.

so good news, its your skin folder. replace that folder with a working one and it will run

its that one file that is placed in the skin folder, the default and scribbling kid folder should be fine.

maybe i can give you this file here idk

place it in your skin folder

did you try with diff diable -1rag1?

or did you try to run your client with parameter -1rag1?

did you try with diff diable -1rag1?

or did you try to run your client with parameter -1rag1?

Tried diffing with Disable -1rag1 parameter, no blank error, but crashed instead. Here's the screenshot

 

 

EDIT : I tried with the diffed client from the site https://rathena.org/board/topic/70962-recommended-client-setup/above. Same error

same error if you run it with admin privileges?

did you run setup.exe with admin privileges before?

[ihazbackup]

same error if you run it with admin privileges?

did you run setup.exe with admin privileges before?

I already ran it with admin privileges. Still the same error

 

EDIT : after diffing and uncheck Read Data Folder First, I got this error instead:

can you try without this diff: 100 Disable Multiple Windows

i guess this error appears right after you startet the client?

I didn't diff that patch. That patch is not showing in NEMO

 

After I double-clicked the client, the error showed

[Neji]

the last error means your grf is missing something.

i never used nemo so idk whether it will work or not. my last diff i did was with xdiffpatcher for 2013-08-07aRagexe.exe, i saw another post from you were you tried to use this client too, you got same error like for 2012 client?

Hmmm well.. Now, I'm re-doing all the client setup. I deleted the client folder and starts from installing kro client.

 

I'll update when I'm done

 

NOTE: XDiff patcher is useful for 2013 or above clients. I'm using the 2012 client.

EDIT : Okay, I've re-done the steps for making the client.

 

I followed this guide: https://rathena.org/board/topic/70962-recommended-client-setup/

 

Here are the steps:

- Installed kro. Downloaded the latest one 2015-03-01 from NickyZai

- created "data" folder and copy the data folder downloaded from the guide to my RO folder

- Copied the "luafiles514", also downloaded from the same source, to the "data" folder in my RO folder

- Changed clientinfo.xml

- Created the GRF from the "data" folder I made.

- Created DATA.INI and set the path to grf

- Diffed client 2012-04-10aRagexeRE_S, downloaded from the guide with the same setting as the above mentioned (No Read LUA before LUB, no Read from Data Folder)

- Started the server [sUCCESS] (my server took the maps from client's grf)

- Started the client [FAIL].... Still blank error message

- If I check disable 1rag1 parameter, it will show windows crash error.

 

I've been stuck in this problem for 5 hours....

ok i could reproduce that error, but didnt really get much information from it.

have you tried to diff the clean 2012-04-10aRagexeRE.exe? i get another error, but then can be related to the mini system i build up in that short time.

with 2012-04-10aRagexeRE_S.exe i get the same error you got. So i think its something wrong with it.

 

if you havnt tried to diff the original exe you can get it from http://supportmii.com/ro1/Clients/RagexeRE/2012-04-10aRagexeRE.exe i guess.

 

your system has all necessary runtime installed and updated?

 

 

it didnt run on my 8.1 system too, same errors.

i will try something else now.

Yeah, my undiffed Exe file came from the same source. My system has all the updates required..

- already patched kro to the latest

- All following the guide from https://rathena.org/board/topic/70962-recommended-client-setup/

 

Tried

- 2012-04-10aRagexe, 

- 2012-04-10aRagexeRE, 

- 2012-04-10aRagexeRE_J, 

- 2012-04-10aRagexeRE_S

I even tried the diffed version. Still blank error

 

I don't know if the client works in Win8. You should change compatibility to XP

Thank you for the file.. I followed the same step as you do (I got my EXE file from my friend's server. He happens to have the same version 2012-04-10) and it works... I don't even know what happens..

 

Anyway thx for all the help, Neji. I'll replace the file with the one you gave me later..
