Transferring from 3ceam to rAthena.

[rlt]

Title.

What should I do?

Sorry if this had been asked already.

Before you migrate, think this thoroughly and answer few basic questions

- Do you want your server to support 3rd Classes?

If yes, stick with 3ceam. Else, if trans classes are fine proceed to the next question

- Did you modify any line on source? (Except db info, packetver)

if yes, edit source of rA MANUALLY. You can't replace rA sources with 3ceam's. Else, if only basic mods are done, proceed next

- Do you have any custom scripts/NPC?

if yes, copy the text files, not the entire NPC folder since rA has a modified/updated/added alot of NPC/Scripts for renewal. Else if, you

only edited default NPC/script on 3ceam, again, DO NOT copy 3ceam's entire NPC folder. Re-Edit them manually. Else, proceed to next

question.

- Did you modify any file found on your conf folder?

If yes, modify rA's conf folder MANUALLY, as they contain more updated versions.

These are only few of the things you need to consider before moving.

Final Note, if you're going to migrate from one project to another, it's better to edit them manually. Although both of 'em forked from 1 source/project,

both has their own plans/direction/objective.

Goodluck.

I'm willing to do things manually, so that's one problem less. Though I want to do it in an up-to-date project.

- Will rAthena ever support 3rd job classes?

- 3ceam project was stopped, right? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

- If possible, where could I find the logs for rAthena's updates.

- Will rAthena ever support 3rd job classes?

Of course, rAthena's aim is to provide an emulator that is close to the official servers.

But development for 3rd classes will be delayed. Right now rA is cleaning up bugs that was suppose

to be fixed back in eA.

- 3ceam project was stopped, right? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

still on development, they just had an update few days ago. Unlike rA, 3ceam only got few devs so

expect development to be slow.

- If possible, where could I find the logs for rAthena's updates.

On navigation bar you can find rA's Trac. On the main forum latest updates are also being shown on

the upper right corner.

It's official, we will transfer to rAthena.

A couple of questions please.

- What first should I do?

- How to perform a server wipe?

- How to transfer accounts, etc.

- How will I connect my rAthena files to mySQL?

That's all for now. Thank you.

- How to perform a server wipe?

if you are using SQL...then delete your SQL Query xD

clear all the Database in your MySql....

How to transfer accounts, etc.

export out your old MySql data....to your new MySql Database...

or just link your server to read the new MySQL database....

How will I connect my rAthena files to mySQL?

setup the setting at conf/inter_athena.conf

// Global SQL settings
// overriden by local settings when the hostname is defined there
// (currently only the login-server reads/obeys these settings)
sql.db_hostname: 127.0.0.1
sql.db_port: 3306
sql.db_username: ragnarok
sql.db_password: ragnarok
sql.db_database: ragnarok
sql.codepage:
// MySQL Character SQL server
char_server_ip: 127.0.0.1
char_server_port: 3306
char_server_id: ragnarok
char_server_pw: ragnarok
char_server_db: ragnarok
// MySQL Map SQL Server
map_server_ip: 127.0.0.1
map_server_port: 3306
map_server_id: ragnarok
map_server_pw: ragnarok
map_server_db: ragnarok
// MySQL Log SQL Database
log_db_ip: 127.0.0.1
log_db_port: 3306
log_db_id: ragnarok
log_db_pw: ragnarok
log_db_db: ragnarok
log_codepage:
log_login_db: loginlog

If I link my rAthena server to my current MySQL database, will it be able to read the accounts in my 3ceam server?

[Emistry]

erm...not sure..i think nope..since rAthane SQL database has abit different from eAthena and 3Ceam...

anyway..if you want just only import a Table...

i think it is okay to load it when both database structure is the same..

[Magnetix]

Setting up rAthena is the same with 3ceam.. Since you're going to do a wipe, then why not create another db

for rAthena? Like Emistry mentioned, rA's db is different from 3ceam's db. How you setup 3ceam will be the same

with rAthena.

I just finished transferring. Thanks to the both of you.

Got a new question here though.

My questions had been answered. Can any mod please close this topic.
