List of things to work on to "change" episode

[ragger00]

Hello there!

I'll keep it short and to the point:
- I'm working on a local server to play with a couple of friends
- everything works, both server-side and client-side
- I'd like to "change" RO episode, starting with the earliest ones such as ep.11 (pre morroc ruins) or even as early as ep.8 (niflheim, pre-rebirth)
- I'm prepared to do the "dirty work" manually, no problems so far

So my main question is:
what is the list of things I have to work on, server-side, to change episode and go back in time?

Here's what i thought about, for now:

• obviously, compile for pre-re
• maps
  • available maps (map_index.txt -> map_cache.dat)
  • map versions (old payon <-> new payon, morroc <-> morroc ruins...)
  • map2map warps
  • kafra warps
  • NPCs
• items
  • available items (item_db*)
  • item effects
• mobs
  • available mobs
  • which-mob-in-which-map
  • mob skills (stats?)
  • mob drops
• jobs
  • available jobs (rebirth, 3rd class...)
  • job skills & skilltree
• other
  • switch off/on features (banking, achievements...)
  • quests
• things i'm unsure about (don't know if they change from ep. to ep.)
  • exp tables
  • elements dmg modifiers

Any input is apprecciated, both on the list of things to work on, or on the specific modifications themselves.

Thank you in advance for any help you guys can give me,
I wish you all a nice day

Simply just locate what version of episode you needed and get information what monster , map , item are available during that episode .

For client side you don't need to do anything
For server side you will do a lot of works . Because you must need to find out what NPC are enabled during that time . PS "Make sure your player dont have any @go commands or warp commands so they can only do is to warp using NPC ) . So it will look like close to actual episode or official server ...
