Are you using 20180620eRagexe? It's probably not working if you dont use that exact date.
Its also likely that 20180620eRegexeRE is not working.

vBrenth · April 8, 2019

Requesting: 2015-09-16aRagexe (the last client without Doram). Other people requested this already

M a p l e · April 8, 2019

Request 2018-09-19aRagexe (Last compatible version with rA)

M45T3R · April 9, 2019

Uh, you could get some inspiration with NovaExt

https://www.novaragnarok.com/wiki/NovaExt

I mean you're halfway there, but the "ping" and FPS feature is very cool ! Never seen that included before neat

Also newer clients? Like the Hercules ones, why? Well they have some new cool features like Bartner which are nice to have with this plugin

Anything after 2019 would be cool

Bartner starts after:

2019-01-16cRagexe

Here is the list

Feilor · April 9, 2019

Yes I want to add features which are present in NovaExt into PiB.

The current focus is optimization and making the project more failsafe, means creating more information when something is wrong eg wrong clientdate. I also want to prioritize adding a bunch of clientdates and adding some sort of automated deployment to make my life a little easier.

I don’t plan to support clients which are not supported by rAthena. (Maybe in the feature, we will see)

Tested both 2018-06-21 / 2018-06-21aRE Client. An error always appear that the client is not compatible. Is there something wrong from my installation or the client is just wrong. I made sure the client date match
