Most guides I've found end up with dead links in-between. Can anyone guide me? Thanks.

If you want to host a server on your pc for you and your friends.
 First know your WAN IP.
Make sure the ports that you're using is open.
setup the server on your IP / in the client also

But where would I download the latest eAthena (IIRC this is the pre-Renewal game) RO?

Hello.

 

But everything I've found directs to rAthena (Including your links). Isn't rAthena Renewal (Third Jobs and stuff)? Because I want to set up a pre-Renewal RO.

So there's no way to just download the original eAthena RO? I remember I had it running and could edit its grfs from the data.grf

No problem. But u need find a mirror for older kRO & data folder (data.grf).

If u are using 2017 kRO. U might end up getting client DC.. perhaps 2013 kRO or older.. i would rather choose over rA & just change server mode into pre-renewal. Less hassle.. and it is still 2nd job if in pre-renewal mode.

And I can edit the grf JUST like back with eAthena in that pre-Renewal Mode?

 

What else would be different?

Dude.. it is still the same. Either eA, rA or hercules. Still using the same grf.. u just need to grab Ragexe / RagexeRE client & Clientside English Translation to be made as GRF (Set the clientinfo.xml) and put these 2 inside the kRO Full Client and u are good to go

Will I be able to load Morroc before its destruction though, or only up to the latest eAthena?

 

Also, could you provide the DL Links or a Guide that'd set the rAthena to pre-Renewal? Guess I could try and see if it works for me.

Arrgh. I guess it'd be an option to, like, go into a Private Server DL page, and see if they have a Mirror to the "Untouched" Client, and use that.

There's no reason to use old eAthena sources. rAthena has all the stuff that eAthena had plus a tons of bug fixes that are all relevant for pre-renewal.

And it's super easy to setup rAthena for pre-renewal, you just need to uncomment a single line in renewal.h.

//quick option to disable all renewal option, used by ./configure
//#define PRERE

Other than that you only need to setup IPs and packet versions (which you had to do on eAthena too) and then just compile and go.

Editing GRFs is independent on what emulator you use, but you might have to change the NPC positions and warp coordinates when you change the maps.

 

Edit: Also check this thread:
