Hi again, can you add minimaps like ayothaya and amatsu dungeon ? There's a quick way to make minimaps with latest GRF Editor.

Was having errors running my own 20220406 client, and this saved me. Thanks for this !

@Sapito Sucio I think patch "BodyPalMF" can cause issues. I had the game crash when switching to job High Thief and it would subsequently crash everytime I would get to character select screen.

I then made my own patched 2022-04-06 exe to confirm and tried with "BodyPalMF" -> it crashed. Then I disabled that patch -> it didn't crash any more.

Thanks for reporting, will test when I have time.

can you make pre-renewal with 2022 client and latest trunk?

Why is the repo empty?

Because of how Gitlab and Git-LFS works, I can only update the `data.grf` once. For subsequent updates, it’s more efficient to delete the entire repository and re-upload the folder. If I don’t follow this process, any modification to data.grf, even as small as 2 bytes, would result in an upload of nearly 12GB

I'm currently uploading it

Edited April 16 by Sapito Sucio

[Sapito Sucio]

After encountering issues with the current data.grf, I decided to start from scratch and overhaul the entire process. The result? A significantly reduced file size for the data.grf

Previously, the data.grf weighed in at around 2.45GB, but now it’s down to just 2.15GB. 

In addition to the file size reduction, I’ve added 275~ mini maps to maps that were lacking them. 

The entire folder, including BGM, now stands at 2.96GB. 

What was done to the poor data.grf?
Besides cleaning up unused sprites from npc and mob folders, now I converted all .BMP files to be 8bit, this doesn't affect quality on a game like RO, instead, it actually makes it easier for the client to handle those assets.
.JPG and .PNG were treated as well but with some differences.


Feel free to report any issue here

Good! I'm having a problem, I've installed everything correctly, I'm using the latest version of Rathena, everything seemed to be working perfectly until I started playing and it turns out that it crashes me when it's time to be reborn... Given this, it doesn't even let me into the character selection as it crashes me.
I deleted the character from MySQL and I logged back in and it happened again, after deleting the character again I logged in with a GM account to be able to review

Then I use the @job command and just when I make use of the @job 4001 corresponding to the High Novice class, the game crashes me!
Do you have any idea what might happen and where to start reviewing? Because if I enter the game I can see in the selection of characters that if I ah loaded the sprite of High Novice and I get the information next to it with class, level etc... But the game gets stuck until I close the process

Are you using my Client? If you do, then you might want to remove the shared palette patch activated in WARP

Awesome work, thanks for that!
Also, I really liked your YT tutorial

Thank you for this!

Hello

I've downloaded the froggo files, applied the same YML file but only changing to only read GRF instead data folder, and I noticed the size on the text of the mapnames (the one appears when access a map).

I thought maybe was realted to the data and system folders, not being read in the GRF, so I added those to a custom GRF and added that GRF to DATA.ini file, but still the font size is not the same than with read-data-first.

Does anybody have any clue what could be happening?

This is a screenshot once the READ GRF is enabled:

Here's the original one, notice the "Morroc" text is bigger than the 1st one.

I've been checking one by one all font diffs I had, and it was "Customize Font Height Character", the one it causes issue.
Thanks for help!

2022 04 06 client, server is up and running. Myself and others can connect just fine with win 10, all working well. But on win 11 only, the client failed to connect. any suggestion how to fix it?

I haven't played this game in a long time, last time was about 20 years ago, when there was no Juno and all the newer chapters, and it has been delightful to explore this world, but since I am kinda newbie to this, I don't know where lies the problems.

I would like to preface the problems by saying that I am loving the easiness by which Sapito Sucio allowed me to replay this game. But here are the problems I am having so far:

The first one is the player skin, I am not sure if the fact that the quest "Job change to mage" that bugged, prevented my char from fully gaining access to his mage skin, or if this is the froggo client just forcing it.

The second problem is "walking", so far the worst offender is the the Juno airship, both the boarding platform and under the lower deck, where the cannons are in the airship from Izlude to Juno, both are unwalkable, once the char enters both places the char gets soft locked and can't neither exit through the warp right next to them, nor walk forward, the only way to get out is through the jump command. But just to exemplify for anyone trying it, in the Juno city if you "@jump 80 260", this should be walkable, to enter/leave the airship from Juno, but unfortunately, I am not sure if this is the rathena map server that didn't register my traveling correctly or the client simply does not have the "walk map" to allow the player to traverse these locations.

I had encountered this problems before, but in a far lighter way, I noticed in Izlude, in the center plaza where you just can't cross from north to south or vice-versa, there seems to be something there, but it is invisible to me, and another location is in prontera, one of the buildings seems to not be rendered, since you can't walk a full patch of land.

The third problem and I believe a far easier one to ignore is the https://irowiki.org/wiki/Juperos_Ruins_History_Quest, in this quest, you are supposed to visit these book locations, but since the navigation doesn't know the library or the "yuno_in04" map, I had to search the whole library for books, but that is a lighter problem, considering the RPG side of the game, where I could just pretend to be a researcher, and enjoy the game without having it all handed to me, but considering I was kinda stuck trying to find the last location, that map could have been mapped and would have solved the problem for me.

The fourth problem, and this one I believe is far harder to solve is the "elurair" launcher, in it you can supposedly customize the launcher of the client with a username and password saved and it would supposedly skip password screen, allowing me to not have to type the password every single time I want to play the game, but for that to work the client itself would have to expose the command line options to allow the player to skip it, and I tried using those cmd options with this froggo client, but this client simply ignore them, perhaps Sapito Sucio stripped them, I am newbish here, so I wouldn't know... Here is the idea, if this client reverted this removal to allow not only the login and password but also created the command line option for the server smoothness and the char selection, it would allow me to create a folder with icons for each of my characters, and I would simply have to click the icon and the game would start a whole lot faster, awesome idea isn't it? Well... one can only dream about it... I guess having to type the password, confirm the smoothness of the server connection and selecting the char every time you want to play the game is the expected pace of the game flow.

Once again, I am not sure where are these problems originated, hence I can't begin to try to solve them, but considering the age of this game and the difficulty that a lot of smarter than me people have already gone through to allow not only me, but also a lot of other players to experience this game, I can only thank Sapito for all the work put into this client and hope for these and other problems that I haven't reached in the game to be solved in the future! Cheers

Thanks @Sapito Sucio It save a lot of time to get my local ragnarok up and running.

How I edit data.grf? I tried to open with grf editor it just wont load is it somehow packed or encrypted?

1. that is GM sprite, use another account and see how it goes. GM sprite even use any jobs will always show as GM sprite.

2. That unwalkable most probably because of pre-re or renewal maps that are different, or kRO that being used have unmatched maps, which means they are changes on the map. Maybe use the maps and add in mapcache editor. Same goes to izlude, prontera and any maps that have 'unwalkable' issue.

3. About 3rd problem, I didnt test it though so I didnt have any comment on that, maybe the navigation is much more updated than your setting/pre-re or maybe outdated.

4. Your client need to be patched with 'Use SSO Login Packet' so that the client can get the required information from elurair patcher.

How to remove Packet Viewer?

[tabonhoofd]

Thank you so much! This and your guide on youtube have helped me out with setting up the server within 1 hour. Can't tell you how much I appreciate this.

I have a question though, it's client-side related. I'm getting unknown items in my inventory when I, lets say summon item number 610029  (610029 Kings_Double_Edge_). It doesn't give me any errors luckily, and I can equip it. Is there a way to fix these sprites/item descriptions. I know it's probably the iteminfo lua file - but is there a up to date version available of this one? Or do I have it but am I doing something wrong.

Hope you guys can help me out!

Thanks!
