Weird Problem about Loading Screens

[Zeiyan]

This is the method I know in putting my own custom loading screens.

 

1. put jpg/jpeg files (1024x768) into texture/À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º/ folder. --- Check!

2. edit clientinfo.xml and put <loading> filename.jpg </loading> ---- Check

3. repack grf ----- check

 

It's really simple and what's bothering me is why does it not show my loading screens this is my data.ini:

 

0=testro.grf ( contains my luafiles, clientinfo.xml etc)

1=testspritetextture.grf (contains the sprite and texturefolder)

2=testpallete.grf (contains pallete folder)

3=data.grf

 

This is my clientinfo.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="euc-kr" ?>

<clientinfo>

<servicetype>korea</servicetype>

<servertype>sakray</servertype>

   <connection>

      <display>Test Ragnarok Online</display>

      <address>127.0.0.1</address>

      <port>6900</port>

      <version>26</version>

      <langtype>1</langtype>

            <admin>2000001</admin>

            <admin>2000002</admin>

            <admin>2000003</admin>

            <admin>2000004</admin>

            <admin>2000005</admin>

        </aid>

        <loading>

            <image>loadingscreen01.jpg</image>

            <image>loadingscreen02.jpg</image>

            <image>loadingscreen03.jpg</image>

            <image>loadingscreen04.jpg</image>

            <image>loadingscreen05.jpg</image>

        </loading>

   </connection>

</clientinfo>

I'm using 2013-08-07 diffed with NEMO patcher.

 

Any help would be much appreciated

 

 

NOTE:

I tried adding 1 loading screen earlier with filename "loading01.jpg" then deleted it and put 5 jpg files named "loadingscreen01,loadingscreen02,loadingscreen03.....) [i changed the file name] the thing is, it's still showing the first "loading01.jpg" I put in along with the other loading screens in data.grf. Which is weird since It's not in my grf anymore and pretty sure i repacked it like 5times already. 

 

UPDATE:

After some warping (more or less like 5-7 times) i get the client error "can't find file texture/gibberish/loadingscreen01.jpg"

which i DO have on my testro.grf. 

 

It seems the client doesnt read from the clientinfo about the loading screens but instead (im not sure about this) saved it somehow in the exe?

1. when diffing the client make sure you selected "Enable multiple GRFs"

2. when diffing the client, did you ask the client to read data folder first? I suggest you to do so (for developmental purpose. upon releasing, you can turn this off.)

3. if you diffed to read data folder first, take a look on your data folder (not the one inside GRF). probably conflict happens.

I encounter this problem last time and I was only change or back the name loadingscreen01 to loading01

I solved this in an unsual way. It seems that the client is like reading both the loading screens in my data.grf and myserver.grf regardless of what i put in my clientinfo.xml (exe only reads files with filenames loading00 - loading10) what i did was just replace the files in the original data.grf and sync them with what i have in myserver.grf
