Setup.exe and client issues!

[Peopleperson49]

I installed my client on a new computer using Windows 7 and I think theres an issue with the setup.exe. I'm using the rAthena client and I have installed this same client and files on several Windows 7 computers with no problems. When I open the client the box is very small in corner of the screen showing just a tiny (looks like a bunch of XXXXX) piece of the login screen. It seems to be loading the client just fine till that point, so it leads me to believe that the setup.exe has an issue. When you go to setup.exe and run as administrator I get the dialog box just fine. I adjusted the setting to include various screen sizes, resolutions, full screen, and graphics settings. They all give the same result. The full screen option isn't even trying to make it full screen. When I save changes or even exit a small setup dialog box appears that is empty allowing me to click 'OK' or 'Cancel'. I'm now sure where to get another setup.exe or even if that is the root problem. Thanks.

Thanks for your reply. I am willing to use a new client and lua set if necessary, but my current client is:

Time Date Stamp: 4D7F06A5

you can also try this if you are looking for lua files.

I had already looked at that. I downloaded '2011-03-16_lua files' but my client is dated 15MAR2011. Is that the correct one?

Peopleperson49

nope. if you want to use the latest lua of mobs. you should also update your client version. and about on the skill info. i think it is update for his client version.

I'm currently using an rAthena client and it works fine, do you have a link to the latest client for renewal? I like the rAthena client, however, several years back I used to use another client that I really liked. I got it from a friend and I can't seem to contact him anymore. Either way I would like a client that would allow you to open up more than one windows at a time and can set when the aura activates. Thanks.

Is there a client that can do some or most of the features of my old client?

1) Mousefreedom type feature was automatically included.
2) When you opened the client it would automatically patch KRO and sakray (tells how old it was) before it would allow the client to let you log in. This would happen after you you used your patcher and the client window opened.
3) Mob sprites would not sprite error, if it was unknown it would show a poring instead of sprite erroring. Kind of like what an unknown item shows up as an apple. Job sprites would not error either, they would show as a novice. However, if you equiped a weapon the novice couldn't hold it would error. This really only came into effect when I tried to make the stargladiator job (one that floates on cloud).
4) Used custom login backgrounds (had to actually create on of your own called login_background1 and login_background2. I don't remember the format, but the login background had to be 800x600. The background were actually part of the client somehow and ignored the ones provided in the KRO data files.
5) Various options were included for your max level, when the aura would activate (upto level 1000), allow multiple windows.

it will only work if they gonna use their diff.

[Peopleperson49]

Thanks for your reply. Do you have a link to the latest client and the correct diffs?
