rAthena translation support + NO MSG + map not loading fully.

[retro2k]

First of all, I want to thank you all in advance for your advice/suggestion/solution.

 

But let me tell you guys that I'm a bit disapointed as I had been in Rizon and Discordapp ... which there were supposed to be support channels for rAthena and such.. posted a few questions and no one had helped me at all. I know that there is no obligation, as in a job would be... but I've seen other guys asking questions and at least one or two were willing to help... I guess I'm just a bit jelous that others have good luck to ask when people is just there to answer and I was not... but anyways.. here I am... (so, dramatic!...  lol) It's just that I feel helpless here and I don't know where to turn.

 

Well then, now that that is out of my system....

 

I've been searching google, rAthena forums, etc, and it seems that both of my questions are quite old, but I've tried almost all the guides and directions that solved other peoples threads and still nothing... so here are my questions and hopefully together we're going to update so much information that's probably almost obsolete.

 

1. I'm trying to translate my client, I've downloaded some translation projects.. but I don't really quite figure it out what to do with those files. I've tried: 

• Extracting the data.grf and replacing the files in the data/lua/textures/etc folders
• Copying the files into a made-by-me data folder in the RO client folder
• Creating a grf with those files and editing DATA.INI to read this file

but nothing worked.

 

2. Probably resolved within the first question, but it seems that many of the game content, such as login window and messages are not loaded so it only shows NO MSG. As far as I could tell from reading so many older posts, it is something to do with MsgStringTable file but still I can get it to read..

 

and last but not least...

 

3. Before I was having the last two issues there, I was having quite hard time on resolving the clif.parse crash... after many many attempts I finally made it work using 2015-11-04Ragexe client...BUT... there's still a minor issue. After I make a character, it's supposed to load in the izlude ship, but there is no map present, just a black background and the sprites of my character and two NPCs which I can interact with, aside from that I cannot move, if I didn't had the GM account I wouldn't be able to warp outside that map...  when I searched for that problem it seems that it has something relative to shadowtable or something, but the file was present in the data and yet, I haven't solved that problem.

 

Please. help!

 

Thank you for your patience

I responded to your question on discord but I think you had logged off already.

1) could you get the translation files to work while in the datafolder before making into a grf? What did you use to create the grf, I know gryff has issues with gibberish lettering.

2) in the translation there are multiple msgstringinfo with different dates make sure your using the one corresponding to your exe

3) I'm pretty sure that izlude has been remade and your map cache has the old one in it so your warping to new locations just download old izlude abd out into your files and should fix.

Thanks for replying Stolao...

 

For grf files I use GRF Builder and GRF editor.

 

I did noticed the MsgStringInfo with dates, and I tried with all of them (1 by 1 of course, renamed without the date) but none of them worked as data folder or grf, my client remains untranslated

 

How come my cache holds the wrong izlude files? Before doing anything of the server I ran the kRO update for pre and RE and everything went fine.

 

If I download the old izlude, whats the path for putting the old izlude files?

 

EDIT:  I don't know if this is relevant, but I'm using 2015-11-04Ragexe client, I've tried with many more and older, but it seems that in some point every one of them has landed on the same clif_parse error... 

 

[info]: clif_parse: Disconnecting session #3 with unknown packet version (p:0x70ee,l:19).

[info]: Closed connection from '127.0.0.1'.

 

Please, help!
