I wonder what's the problem with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uhm, that's the part where you use the mapcache.exe, right? If it is, I'm sure that I did it correctly, and it also said that the map has been successfully cached.

Well even if it says " successfully cached ", that doesn't mean your map has already been added because it'll just re-cache your maps again. Can you tell how did you use mapcache?

Can you tell how did you use mapcache? Here are the steps: 1.) Delete the existing map_cache.dat found at db/pre-re/ 2.) Add the necessary informations. conf/grf-files grf: C:\Documents and Settings\...\rdata.grf grf: C:\Documents and Settings\...\data.grf data_dir: C:\Documents and Settings\...\RO db/map_index.txt flaris conf/maps_athena.conf map: flaris 3.) Placed the maps at C:\Documents and Settings\...\RO Flaris.extra Flaris.gat Flaris.gnd Flaris.rsw 4.)Then use the mapcache.exe, I open a command prompt before using it. I then wait for it to finish. 5.) Then since I have duplicated maps, I open the map_cache.dat that is made by the mapcache.exe using WeeMapCache 6.) I made a resnametable.txt then placed it inside the C:\Documents and Settings\...\RO\data 7.) Then I use the RNT function of the WeeMapCache and I located the resnametable.txt 8.) After this, I save it. And this is the last step. I hope I didn't miss anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know how to fix this? Thank you. Please disregard my last post. I was able to fix the problem. I'm not 100% sure if this really fixed it but here's what I did. I just made sure that the copy of map_index.txt and maps_athena.conf that I'm using in the VPS is the same with the one I'm using on my Lan Server. Then I recached everything. Thank you everyone.

Question
integral
Hello, can anyone please help me with my problem here?
The problem goes like this.
I have a custom map. And whenever I reconnect, my character will always end up on prontera.
Since whenever we reconnect, it saves the last position wherein in the database, right?
So I was wondering what's wrong with it.
If anyone knows how to fix it, I'd be really thankful.
Here's a screenshot of the said problem that is showing in the log.
EDIT: It seems that only the custom maps are affected. All 3 of my custom maps behave this way.
