Ratena Network Protocol Specifications

[gemu]

Hi, I'm thinking about creating an opensource client for Rathena (as an alternative to the official Ragnarok client), but I can't find any documentation about the protocol it uses, is there anything out there? so I don't have to reverse engineer the server source code :(.

OpenSource client:

https://github.com/guilhermelhr/unityro

https://github.com/vE5li/korangar

https://github.com/OpenKore/openkore

 

Basically its a tcp connection where server and client send binary messages to each other.

Every message is a packet and every packet has ID and Body

Unfortunately, there is no official documentation for the Ragnarok Online protocol used by Rathena. Your best bet is to explore the source code or check community forums like rAthena for any unofficial resources or discussions that might help avoid reverse engineering.
