Hello im using MySQL not Xammp can you help me build Offline Server?

[pizza123]

worse tutorial ever,

[chatterboy]

Use XAMM or WAMP SERVER for easy to setup coz its all in one... and make sure the PORT 80 is not in use by other program, because sometimes thats the problem.

[Blahguy]

Thanks for the guide! It helped tons in getting started. Can't wait to start learning

Thank you for this tutorial, it was really useful.

Note : based on your visual studio version, maybe it will be necessary to run another ."sln" file.

Thank you
I am able to run my own server now
Nice guide.

It's been a year since I made this post/guide. Nice to see that I have helped a lot of people creating their own private server.

Sorry to those who were not able to to do so. I tried my best to make the guide as simple and easy to understand/follow. The guide obviously still requires users some basic information on how the required software/programming app works. 

[BlitzGregor]

This guide is very vague and confusing at times, I find it lazy to just point to the wiki when trying to explain something.

Though the guide is the most up to date and helpful for making an RO personal server I have gotten stuck at points, first when compiling the rathena with Visual Studios Community addition 2015, and as of currently, using Xampp instead of MySQL tools.

I was successful in making the client but server side is the most difficult especially when there are so many different guides out there, but most out of date.

with Xampp I cant get Apache to run even after modifying the conf

fixing the VS problem I found https://github.com/rathena/rathena/issues/769     where they had similar problem and fixed by changing clif.c, itemdb.c, and db.c (found in server/src/map) to https://github.com/rathena/rathena/commit/86d6113801db3c18d78d437f54ad623ccf5230df and compiling the rathena-15 to get VS to update programs that could compile it, but for me after doing so I had to put back the original files for it to work

(sorry in advance if these links don't work for you or no long become accessible in the future)

if your trying to make a guide pls consider that not everyone who comes here has much or any coding experience

Edit: Yeah....., as I read all the comments I can see that what I stated is true. If I find solutions to my own problems i'll try and post them as to help others in the future.

Ok I finally got a working setup and have come to share my solutions

This is for server side only, as it was what I had the most trouble on.

If you made it to where I also got suck with Xampp, instead I used MySQL server and tools and followed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jq1e6mHZqIo guide

(I know its hypocritical of me to just point at a guide instead of just explaining but this is the comment section and I'm trying to help improve upon this guide)

Don't forget that every time you make changes to the server files you have to recompile the rathena

If you want to change max character slots go to (server/src/common/mmo.h) and change #define MAX_CHARS 9

Hey guys! 

Would very appreciate your help. 

My server is started normally (or it looks like it because there are no errors in server console apps) , i did it through MySql directly like it is said in rAthene repo

but seems there are problems with clients

i've done everything in the client section

Setup Client Side

 

Diff Ragexe

1. Open NEMO

2. Browse for Input Exe File. Locate the Client Exe file you have downloaded

3. Click Load Client.

4. Click Select Recommended.

5. Just click OK to the Window that pops up

6. Check Disable Packet Encryption <-- if error occurs such as server disconnects you after character select, as per user iantoom, do not check. Enable Packet Obfuscation instead, refer to the configuring rathena above.

7. Check Use Ragnarok Icon

8. Check Read data folder first

9. Click Apply Selected

 

You should now have a patched exe file in the same folder location(of the exe you downloaded)

 

Placing all processed files in one folder

 

1. Create New Folder

2. Copy Data and System Folder from your downloaded RO Translation folder to your New Folder

3. Copy BGM and SaveData folder from your downloaded/installed kRo Folder to your New Folder

4. Copy data.grf from your downloaded/installed kRo Folder to your New Folder

5. Copy All dll files from your downloaded/installed kRo Folder to your New Folder

6. Copy Setup.exe  from your downloaded/installed kRo Folder to your New Folder

7. Copy patched exe file to your New Folder

 

Modify ClientInfo.xml

 

1. Open data/clientinfo.xml in your New Folder

2. Modify Address to 127.0.0.1

3. Modify Version to XX    where XX is the packet_db_ver

 

 

Launch patched exe file

 

)

with only one difference - there is no Setup.exe file on provided there client https://rathena.org/board/topic/102572-kro-full-client-last-update-10262016/

 

The problem is : when i launch client there is no GUI. Only process created in Task manager with high processor consumption (about 30%)

could new kro client be not compatible ?

What i can do to run client? Can someone share his working client folder example or give any clues how to fix or diag this?

I'm running on Windows 10 if this info is important (my server is running on x86 Win 7 in the Lan)

Thank you in advance!

UPD. Managed to fix it. Reason was in Setup.exe (downloaded it from another place)

connected to server and there are troubles as well((

i see black screen and cannot move. Someone encountered fimiliar behaviour? It looks like map was not loaded, could it be something connected to mapserver? But it is running

Thats just a bug for the start area, just type @go 0 or @warp <city> <x> <y> to leave that place

I fixed by creating an npc to just get players to prontera, or find a way to change starting area.

here's the example npc

start.txt

(If you want to add custom npc's go to server/npc/custom and drag and drop, then update scripts_custom and add where the file is located ex. npc: npc/custom/start.txt)

This happen because kRO made changes in starting area but the emulator did not made the necessary changes try to do a @jump, you'll be transported to a random location of this map (is a replica of sunken ship island), take the coordinates then change the start point in conf folder (I don't remember the exact file but is one of these 3 char, map or login confs), you can take the start npcs and the warp and change they location too.
