lets say your map name is alberta your server name is someRO and your grf name is sRO.grf

 

step 1 - go to maps_athena.conf located in the conf folder(trunk\conf\maps_athena.conf) and add your map's details here 

example :-

map: alberta

 

step 2 - go to grf-files.txt located in the conf folder(trunk\conf\grf-files.txt) and make the following changes

//-----------------------------------------
// GRF Files
// Add as many as needed.
//-----------------------------------------

// grf: C:\path\to\RO\rata.grf
// grf: C:\path\to\RO\data.grf
// You may add more in this format
// grf: <data file path>

grf: E:\someRO\rdata.grf
grf: E:\someRO\data.grf
grf: E:\someRO\sRO.grf

//-----------------------------------------
// Data Directory
// Use the base folder, not the data\ path.
//-----------------------------------------
//data_dir: C:\path\to\RO\

data_dir: E:\someRO

step 3 - go to map_index.txt located in your db folder(trunk\db\map_index.txt) and add only your map's name

Example :-

alberta

 

step 4 -  go to your server's grf (sRO.grf) and search for mapnametable.txt

go to the bottom of this file and add your map's details

format :-

(your custom map name which is displayed on your map files.RSW)#(when we type /where in-game this text will be displayed)

Example : alberta.rsw#Alberta#

 

step 5 - you need to add your custom map files(.gat .gnd .rsw and maybe .extra) inside your server's grf.(you can remove them later if you dont want)

place them in your grf's data folder

Example :-

data\alberta.gat ----- make sure you put all 4 of your custom files here

 

once all these steps are done make sure you have saved the changes you have made so far.. so,just re-check everything step by step.

 

step 6 - run your mapcache.exe located in - trunk\mapcache.exe

 

step 7 - go in game!
