Monsieur Panda

Hello,
For some reason, I decided to write my own guide for super newbie people. And when I say newbie, I say REAL newbie. I will not ask you to learn anything or saying rude things like "go google ffs".
I believe people that want to create their server are not necessary interested being a linux master or whatever. Never people are saying that before leaning guitar, people should learn how string and guitar are made.
Enough talk, lets start !
 
 
Prerequisites
Patience, meticulousness, cogitation kRO full client: Mirror #1 (mediafire), Mirror #2 (Direct Link from my ftp) kRO last actual compatible exe: Mirror #1 (mega.nz), Mirror #2 (Direct Link from my ftp) Setup exe: Download (Page), Mirror #1 (Direct Link from my ftp) N.E.M.O. Diff Patcher Download (git) BGM parameter files. Download (Direct Link herc.ws), Mirror #1 (Direct Link from my ftp) Translation Package. Download (git) Putty: Download (Page) If Putty does not work, use Kitty Download (Page) 1~2 hours of your time Things you should know:
You cannot see password in Putty / Kitty when you type it. nano is a text editor. At the bottom of the screen you can see a menu. To use it, press CTRL + the option's letter You cannot use numeric pad in nano Being polite is always rewarding  
I. Dedicated server
 
A. Get your server
You can find very cheap solution at Kimsufi. Choose anything you want. I recommend you to choose Debian 8 (Jessie) for your OS.  In Kimsufi manager, you will find your server IP. You have your login (root) and password in an email after installing the OS B. Configure your server
Start Putty and enter server's IP address Connect with root then type the password you got by email. (You wont see " * " when you type) To change your password enter the following line passwd Install required package by enter this (copy this and paste it with a right-click): apt-get install git make gcc mysql-server libmysqlclient-dev zlib1g-dev libpcre3-dev screen ​The following is meant to make a web server. Even if you don't plan to make a website, I suggest you to take it, just because phpmyadmin is easy to use. While installing phpmyadmin, select apache2. apt-get install apache2 apt-get install php5 php5-cli libapache2-mod-php5 php5-mysql apt-get install phpmyadmin ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/html/ ​Because hercules doesn't work if you use root login, we will create a new user. useradd ragnarok passwd ragnarok [choose_a_password] Connect to phpmyadmin and login with the information you chose at this address: http://your_server_ip/phpmyadmin Create a new database ragnarok and choose utf8_unicode_ci as collation Create another database and name it ragnarok_log with same collation Click on the tab Users (top of the page), Add User and fill the form. Username: ragnarok, password: [choose_a_assword], Click on Check All in the privilege group. (or if you know what are you doing, select options you need) Now you can log out from your server in Putty logout C. Install Hercules
Login again in Kitty with the new user ragnarok Download Hercules emulator git clone https://github.com/HerculesWS/Hercules.git ~/Hercules We will need to reach the database installation folder: cd Hercules/sql-files/ We will now import tables in the database. You will have to write your mysql password each time (set in step B.4). mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < main.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok_log < logs.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db2.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db2.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db2.sql if you want to make a PRE-RENEWAL server, enter also this mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db.sql If you want to make a RENEWAL server: mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db_re.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db_re.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db_re.sql D. Configure hercules
It is required to set up a server login and password for char-server, map-server and the login database. It can be done by editing few files and the table login. Start by editing conf/inter-server.conf. cd ../​​ nano conf/inter-server.conf Find the line sql.db_username and fill it with the user and password we created in step B.10. fill also the database name with ragnarok As the same time, you will need to edit conf/import/inter_conf.txt. nano conf/import/inter_conf.txt sql.db_username: ragnarok sql.db_password: your_sql_password sql.db_database: ragnarok log_db_id: ragnarok log_db_pw: your_sql_password log_db_db: ragnarok_log now edit conf/import/char_conf.txt and fill it with this following text nano conf/import/char_conf.txt // Server Communication username and password.
userid: [new user]
passwd: [new password] Do the same to conf/import/map_conf.txt with the same userid and passwd. nano conf/import/map_conf.txt // Server Communication username and password. userid: [new user]
passwd: [new password] You will need to update the login table from ragnarok database. Connect again to your phpmyadmin (I.B.7) Find the table login and edit the only row available. userid must have the same value as [new user] user_pass must have the same value as [new password] char-server.conf nano conf/char-server.conf server_name: [your_server_name] wisp_server_name: Admin For some reason, you must reboot your server. reboot Close the Terminal and connect again after a minute. Now you will need to work on your server ports iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 6900 -j ACCEPT iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 5121 -j ACCEPT iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 6121 -j ACCEPT iptables save We are done with the server for now. You can log out if you want. Lets prepare our client!   II. Create the Client   A. Organization Extract the full client in C:\ro_client\RO\ and launch update with rsu-kro-renewal-lite.exe or rsu-kro-rag-lite.exe if you set a pre-re server. Extract the Ragexe.exe in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract data and System folders from the translation Package in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract the opensetup.exe in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract Mssfast.m3d and Mp3dec.asi from BGM.zip in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract N.E.M.O. content in C:\ro_client\NEMO\ Once Step 1 is DONE: Copy All *.dll and *.INI files from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\ Copy BGM and savedata folders from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\ Copy rdata.grf and data.grf files from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\ B. Configure the Client
Launch N.E.M.O. and load 2015-05-13aRagexe.exe  Hit "Select Recommended" Confirm DATA.INI Rename iteminfo.lub to iteminfo_n.lub Now search "Read Data Folder First" and check it Hit "Apply Selected" and you will have a new 2015-05-13aRagexe_patched.exe file. You should "Save Profile" now, because you will probably want to edit again your client later C. Add the translation
Rename C:\ro_client\fresh\System\itemInfo.lub to iteminfo_n.lub You might need to rename C:\ro_client\fresh\data\texture\À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º\ folder to 유저인터페이스 later, but for now, just skip this step (not sure if you encounter this problem). Open C:\ro_client\fresh\data\clientinfo.xml with a text editor (I recommend Notepad++) Update the address with your server IP <address>[ip_address]</address> Done with the translation. Now we will say to the server, which client players are using.  
III. Finish Server configuration
 
A. Compile the server
Launch Putty again and login to your server. We will compile Hercules. It will take time so be patient. cd ./Hercules ​​./configure --enable-packetver=20150513 make clean make sql once it is done, you can verify if the version has been properly set. nano src/common/mmo.h Find following lines #ifndef PACKETVER         #define PACKETVER Change #define PACKETVER to #define PACKETVER 20150513 if not done yet. If you did change something in mmo.h, you need to recompile again. Process again the step III.A.1 B. Start the server
To start the server, you simply need the following line (while being in Hercules folder) ./athena-start start  
 
IV. Player Side
 
A. Create a Game Master Account
Go to your phpmyadmin (step I.B.7) and find again the login table. Hit the Insert tab userid: [login_nickname] user_pass: [login_pass] group_id: 99 gender: M or F You have now your Game Master Account B. Play
Launch C:\ro_client\fresh\2015-05-13aRagexe_patched.exe Login with your newly created game master account Process thru in game. type @go 0 Be happy.  
V. Customize
 
A.  Back to the N.E.M.O.
This Diff patcher is really cool, be aware of that. You can now edit again your client. repeat the step II.B.1 Hit "Load Profile" and choose the previous file you created in step II.B.7 Check the list and hit option you want. repeat step II.B.6 and 7 B. Options & Fix
Remove the Pin Secure Code Be sure to always be in Hercules folder ( cd ./Hercules) ./athena-start stop ​​nano conf/import/char_conf.txt add this line: pincode_enabled: 0 process to step III.A.1 To edit clientinfo.xml, I suggest you to check the wiki page if you can't see in game button Rename C:\ro_client\fresh\data\texture\À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º to 유저인터페이스 Get Unbollox: Download (Download Page), Mirror #1 (Direct Link from my ftp) In unbollox, select the texture folder and click on À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º Changing starting point nano conf/import/char_conf.txt add start_point_re: prt_fild08,170,365 Changing starting items nano conf/import/char_conf.txt ​add start_items: 2393,1,0,5055,1,0,569,20,1 Changin starting Zeny nano conf/import/char_conf.txt add start_zeny: 5,000 == More options to come, just reply to this topic if you can't find how to do what == C. Adding Custom Content
NPC ​Add your script in npc/custom/your_script_name.txt Edit npc/script_custom.conf and add the following line: npc: npc/custom/your_script_name.txt ITEM Read the wiki about custom item (Link) System/iteminfo_n.lub [<item id>] = {
unidentifiedDisplayName = "My custom Item", // Or "Accessory" or "Headgear" if it is an equipment
unidentifiedResourceName = "my_custom_item", //This will set the sprite you will use (ex: my_custom_item.spr / actmy_custom_item.act)
unidentifiedDescriptionName =  {             "Unknown Item, can be identified by using a ^6666CCMagnifier^000000."         }, //Or basically juste { }, if it is not an equipment.
identifiedDisplayName = "My custom Item", identifiedResourceName = "my_custom_item",
identifiedDescriptionName =  {             "Bleh this item is a custom item.",             "Bleh this is a second line"         },  // Description of your item.
slotCount = 0, ClassNum = 0 // Read the wiki page for the list.
}, Sprites. Drop item sprite (also the same as click and drag) must be in: data/sprite/¾ÆÀÌÅÛ/my_custom_item.spr / my_custom_item.act Inventory texture (24x24 size 256 bit bmp) must be in: data/texture/À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º/item/my_custom_item.bmp Headgears: Copy the headgear in: data\sprite\¾Ç¼¼»ç¸®\¿©\¿©_my_custom_item.spr / ¿©_Helmet.act for Female data\sprite\¾Ç¼¼»ç¸®\³²\³²_my_custom_item.spr / ³²_Helmet.act for Male Collection picture (75x100 256 bit bmp) must be in: data/sprite/¾ÆÀÌÅÛ/collection/my_custom_item.bmp MAP Cient side Your map file name and ID cannot be longer than 13 caracters. ​my_map.gat, my_map.gnd, my_map.rsw, my_map.extra must be in data/ folder (inside grf) Additional textures (bmp) must be in data/texture/À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º/map/  BGM must be in BGM/ folder. Add the bgm in data/mp3nametable.txt (ex: my_map.rsw#bgm\\44.mp3#) Add following lines to data/resnametable.txt my_map.gnd#my_map.gnd# my_map.gat#my_map.gat# my_map.rsw#my_map.rsw# Add this line to data/mapnametable.txt my_map.rsw#Title of my Map# Server Side Add the following line to​​ db/map_index.txt my_map Add the following line to conf/maps.conf map: my_map Cache Create a map.grf and include a folder data/. Add inside your map files (gat, rsw, gnd, extra) Create a folder grf/ in your server root (Hercules/) and upload map.grf inside grf/ folder. Connect via ssh (putty) to your server and log in. Stop your server  ./athena-start stop Edit conf/grf-files.txt ​nano conf/grf-files.txt Add the following line, save and close. ​grf: grf/map.grf Do the following command ./mapcache start your serveur ./athena-start start

While installing phpmyadmin, select apache2. apt-get install apache2 apt-get install php5 php5-cli libapache2-mod-php5 php5-mysql apt-get install phpmyadmin ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/html/ ​Because hercules doesn't work if you use root login, we will create a new user. useradd ragnarok passwd ragnarok [choose_a_password] Connect to phpmyadmin and login with the information you chose at this address: http://your_server_ip/phpmyadmin Create a new database ragnarok and choose utf8_unicode_ci as collation Create another database and name it ragnarok_log with same collation Click on the tab Users (top of the page), Add User and fill the form. Username: ragnarok, password: [choose_a_assword], Click on Check All in the privilege group. (or if you know what are you doing, select options you need) Now you can log out from your server in Putty logout C. Install Hercules
Login again in Kitty with the new user ragnarok Download Hercules emulator git clone https://github.com/HerculesWS/Hercules.git ~/Hercules We will need to reach the database installation folder: cd Hercules/sql-files/ We will now import tables in the database. You will have to write your mysql password each time (set in step B.4). mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < main.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok_log < logs.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db2.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db2.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db2.sql if you want to make a PRE-RENEWAL server, enter also this mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db.sql If you want to make a RENEWAL server: mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db_re.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db_re.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db_re.sql D. Configure hercules
It is required to set up a server login and password for char-server, map-server and the login database. It can be done by editing few files and the table login. Start by editing conf/inter-server.conf. cd ../​​ nano conf/inter-server.conf Find the line sql.db_username and fill it with the user and password we created in step B.10. fill also the database name with ragnarok As the same time, you will need to edit conf/import/inter_conf.txt. nano conf/import/inter_conf.txt sql.db_username: ragnarok sql.db_password: your_sql_password sql.db_database: ragnarok log_db_id: ragnarok log_db_pw: your_sql_password log_db_db: ragnarok_log now edit conf/import/char_conf.txt and fill it with this following text nano conf/import/char_conf.txt // Server Communication username and password.
userid: [new user]
passwd: [new password] Do the same to conf/import/map_conf.txt with the same userid and passwd. nano conf/import/map_conf.txt // Server Communication username and password. userid: [new user]
passwd: [new password] You will need to update the login table from ragnarok database. Connect again to your phpmyadmin (I.B.7) Find the table login and edit the only row available. userid must have the same value as [new user] user_pass must have the same value as [new password] char-server.conf nano conf/char-server.conf server_name: [your_server_name] wisp_server_name: Admin For some reason, you must reboot your server. reboot Close the Terminal and connect again after a minute. Now you will need to work on your server ports iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 6900 -j ACCEPT iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 5121 -j ACCEPT iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 6121 -j ACCEPT iptables save We are done with the server for now. You can log out if you want. Lets prepare our client!   II. Create the Client   A. Organization Extract the full client in C:\ro_client\RO\ and launch update with rsu-kro-renewal-lite.exe or rsu-kro-rag-lite.exe if you set a pre-re server. Extract the Ragexe.exe in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract data and System folders from the translation Package in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract the opensetup.exe in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract Mssfast.m3d and Mp3dec.asi from BGM.zip in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract N.E.M.O. content in C:\ro_client\NEMO\ Once Step 1 is DONE: Copy All *.dll and *.INI files from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\ Copy BGM and savedata folders from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\ Copy rdata.grf and data.grf files from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\ B. Configure the Client
Launch N.E.M.O. and load 2015-05-13aRagexe.exe  Hit "Select Recommended" Confirm DATA.INI Rename iteminfo.lub to iteminfo_n.lub Now search "Read Data Folder First" and check it Hit "Apply Selected" and you will have a new 2015-05-13aRagexe_patched.exe file. You should "Save Profile" now, because you will probably want to edit again your client later C. Add the translation
Rename C:\ro_client\fresh\System\itemInfo.lub to iteminfo_n.lub You might need to rename C:\ro_client\fresh\data\texture\À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º\ folder to 유저인터페이스 later, but for now, just skip this step (not sure if you encounter this problem). Open C:\ro_client\fresh\data\clientinfo.xml with a text editor (I recommend Notepad++) Update the address with your server IP <address>[ip_address]</address> Done with the translation. Now we will say to the server, which client players are using.  
III. Finish Server configuration
 
A. Compile the server
Launch Putty again and login to your server. We will compile Hercules. It will take time so be patient. cd ./Hercules ​​./configure --enable-packetver=20150513 make clean make sql once it is done, you can verify if the version has been properly set. nano src/common/mmo.h Find following lines #ifndef PACKETVER         #define PACKETVER Change #define PACKETVER to #define PACKETVER 20150513 if not done yet. If you did change something in mmo.h, you need to recompile again. Process again the step III.A.1 B. Start the server
To start the server, you simply need the following line (while being in Hercules folder) ./athena-start start  
 
IV. Player Side
 
A. Create a Game Master Account
Go to your phpmyadmin (step I.B.7) and find again the login table. Hit the Insert tab userid: [login_nickname] user_pass: [login_pass] group_id: 99 gender: M or F You have now your Game Master Account B. Play
Launch C:\ro_client\fresh\2015-05-13aRagexe_patched.exe Login with your newly created game master account Process thru in game. type @go 0 Be happy.  
V. Customize
 
A.  Back to the N.E.M.O.
This Diff patcher is really cool, be aware of that. You can now edit again your client. repeat the step II.B.1 Hit "Load Profile" and choose the previous file you created in step II.B.7 Check the list and hit option you want. repeat step II.B.6 and 7 B. Options & Fix
Remove the Pin Secure Code Be sure to always be in Hercules folder ( cd ./Hercules) ./athena-start stop ​​nano conf/import/char_conf.txt add this line: pincode_enabled: 0 process to step III.A.1 To edit clientinfo.xml, I suggest you to check the wiki page if you can't see in game button Rename C:\ro_client\fresh\data\texture\À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º to 유저인터페이스 Get Unbollox: Download (Download Page), Mirror #1 (Direct Link from my ftp) In unbollox, select the texture folder and click on À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º Changing starting point nano conf/import/char_conf.txt add start_point_re: prt_fild08,170,365 Changing starting items nano conf/import/char_conf.txt ​add start_items: 2393,1,0,5055,1,0,569,20,1 Changin starting Zeny nano conf/import/char_conf.txt add start_zeny: 5,000 == More options to come, just reply to this topic if you can't find how to do what == C.

Hello,
For some reason, I decided to write my own guide for super newbie people. And when I say newbie, I say REAL newbie. I will not ask you to learn anything or saying rude things like "go google ffs".
I believe people that want to create their server are not necessary interested being a linux master or whatever. Never people are saying that before leaning guitar, people should learn how string and guitar are made.
Enough talk, lets start !

I. Dedicated server
 
A. Get your server
You can find very cheap solution at Kimsufi. Choose anything you want. I recommend you to choose Debian 8 (Jessie) for your OS.  In Kimsufi manager, you will find your server IP. You have your login (root) and password in an email after installing the OS B. Configure your server
Start Putty and enter server's IP address Connect with root then type the password you got by email.

Login again in Kitty with the new user ragnarok Download Hercules emulator git clone https://github.com/HerculesWS/Hercules.git ~/Hercules We will need to reach the database installation folder: cd Hercules/sql-files/ We will now import tables in the database. You will have to write your mysql password each time (set in step B.4). mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < main.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok_log < logs.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db2.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db2.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db2.sql if you want to make a PRE-RENEWAL server, enter also this mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db.sql If you want to make a RENEWAL server: mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db_re.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db_re.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db_re.sql D. Configure hercules
It is required to set up a server login and password for char-server, map-server and the login database. It can be done by editing few files and the table login. Start by editing conf/inter-server.conf. cd ../​​ nano conf/inter-server.conf Find the line sql.db_username and fill it with the user and password we created in step B.10. fill also the database name with ragnarok As the same time, you will need to edit conf/import/inter_conf.txt. nano conf/import/inter_conf.txt sql.db_username: ragnarok sql.db_password: your_sql_password sql.db_database: ragnarok log_db_id: ragnarok log_db_pw: your_sql_password log_db_db: ragnarok_log now edit conf/import/char_conf.txt and fill it with this following text nano conf/import/char_conf.txt // Server Communication username and password.
userid: [new user]
passwd: [new password] Do the same to conf/import/map_conf.txt with the same userid and passwd. nano conf/import/map_conf.txt // Server Communication username and password. userid: [new user]
passwd: [new password] You will need to update the login table from ragnarok database. Connect again to your phpmyadmin (I.B.7) Find the table login and edit the only row available. userid must have the same value as [new user] user_pass must have the same value as [new password] char-server.conf nano conf/char-server.conf server_name: [your_server_name] wisp_server_name: Admin For some reason, you must reboot your server. reboot Close the Terminal and connect again after a minute. Now you will need to work on your server ports iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 6900 -j ACCEPT iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 5121 -j ACCEPT iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 6121 -j ACCEPT iptables save We are done with the server for now. You can log out if you want. Lets prepare our client!   II. Create the Client   A. Organization Extract the full client in C:\ro_client\RO\ and launch update with rsu-kro-renewal-lite.exe or rsu-kro-rag-lite.exe if you set a pre-re server. Extract the Ragexe.exe in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract data and System folders from the translation Package in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract the opensetup.exe in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract Mssfast.m3d and Mp3dec.asi from BGM.zip in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract N.E.M.O. content in C:\ro_client\NEMO\ Once Step 1 is DONE: Copy All *.dll and *.INI files from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\ Copy BGM and savedata folders from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\ Copy rdata.grf and data.grf files from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\ B. Configure the Client
Launch N.E.M.O. and load 2015-05-13aRagexe.exe  Hit "Select Recommended" Confirm DATA.INI Rename iteminfo.lub to iteminfo_n.lub Now search "Read Data Folder First" and check it Hit "Apply Selected" and you will have a new 2015-05-13aRagexe_patched.exe file. You should "Save Profile" now, because you will probably want to edit again your client later C. Add the translation
Rename C:\ro_client\fresh\System\itemInfo.lub to iteminfo_n.lub You might need to rename C:\ro_client\fresh\data\texture\À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º\ folder to 유저인터페이스 later, but for now, just skip this step (not sure if you encounter this problem). Open C:\ro_client\fresh\data\clientinfo.xml with a text editor (I recommend Notepad++) Update the address with your server IP <address>[ip_address]</address> Done with the translation. Now we will say to the server, which client players are using.  
III. Finish Server configuration
 
A. Compile the server
Launch Putty again and login to your server. We will compile Hercules. It will take time so be patient. cd ./Hercules ​​./configure --enable-packetver=20150513 make clean make sql once it is done, you can verify if the version has been properly set. nano src/common/mmo.h Find following lines #ifndef PACKETVER         #define PACKETVER Change #define PACKETVER to #define PACKETVER 20150513 if not done yet. If you did change something in mmo.h, you need to recompile again. Process again the step III.A.1 B. Start the server
To start the server, you simply need the following line (while being in Hercules folder) ./athena-start start  
 
IV. Player Side
 
A. Create a Game Master Account
Go to your phpmyadmin (step I.B.7) and find again the login table. Hit the Insert tab userid: [login_nickname] user_pass: [login_pass] group_id: 99 gender: M or F You have now your Game Master Account B. Play
Launch C:\ro_client\fresh\2015-05-13aRagexe_patched.exe Login with your newly created game master account Process thru in game. type @go 0 Be happy.  
V. Customize
 
A.  Back to the N.E.M.O.
This Diff patcher is really cool, be aware of that. You can now edit again your client. repeat the step II.B.1 Hit "Load Profile" and choose the previous file you created in step II.B.7 Check the list and hit option you want. repeat step II.B.6 and 7 B. Options & Fix
Remove the Pin Secure Code Be sure to always be in Hercules folder ( cd ./Hercules) ./athena-start stop ​​nano conf/import/char_conf.txt add this line: pincode_enabled: 0 process to step III.A.1 To edit clientinfo.xml, I suggest you to check the wiki page if you can't see in game button Rename C:\ro_client\fresh\data\texture\À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º to 유저인터페이스 Get Unbollox: Download (Download Page), Mirror #1 (Direct Link from my ftp) In unbollox, select the texture folder and click on À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º Changing starting point nano conf/import/char_conf.txt add start_point_re: prt_fild08,170,365 Changing starting items nano conf/import/char_conf.txt ​add start_items: 2393,1,0,5055,1,0,569,20,1 Changin starting Zeny nano conf/import/char_conf.txt add start_zeny: 5,000 == More options to come, just reply to this topic if you can't find how to do what == C.

Hello,
For some reason, I decided to write my own guide for super newbie people. And when I say newbie, I say REAL newbie. I will not ask you to learn anything or saying rude things like "go google ffs".
I believe people that want to create their server are not necessary interested being a linux master or whatever. Never people are saying that before leaning guitar, people should learn how string and guitar are made.
Enough talk, lets start !

I. Dedicated server
 
A. Get your server
You can find very cheap solution at Kimsufi. Choose anything you want. I recommend you to choose Debian 8 (Jessie) for your OS.  In Kimsufi manager, you will find your server IP. You have your login (root) and password in an email after installing the OS B. Configure your server
Start Putty and enter server's IP address Connect with root then type the password you got by email.

Even if you don't plan to make a website, I suggest you to take it, just because phpmyadmin is easy to use. While installing phpmyadmin, select apache2. apt-get install apache2 apt-get install php5 php5-cli libapache2-mod-php5 php5-mysql apt-get install phpmyadmin ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/html/ ​Because hercules doesn't work if you use root login, we will create a new user. useradd ragnarok passwd ragnarok [choose_a_password] Connect to phpmyadmin and login with the information you chose at this address: http://your_server_ip/phpmyadmin Create a new database ragnarok and choose utf8_unicode_ci as collation Create another database and name it ragnarok_log with same collation Click on the tab Users (top of the page), Add User and fill the form.

Start by editing conf/inter-server.conf. cd ../​​ nano conf/inter-server.conf Find the line sql.db_username and fill it with the user and password we created in step B.10. fill also the database name with ragnarok As the same time, you will need to edit conf/import/inter_conf.txt. nano conf/import/inter_conf.txt sql.db_username: ragnarok sql.db_password: your_sql_password sql.db_database: ragnarok log_db_id: ragnarok log_db_pw: your_sql_password log_db_db: ragnarok_log now edit conf/import/char_conf.txt and fill it with this following text nano conf/import/char_conf.txt // Server Communication username and password.
userid: [new user]
passwd: [new password] Do the same to conf/import/map_conf.txt with the same userid and passwd. nano conf/import/map_conf.txt // Server Communication username and password. userid: [new user]
passwd: [new password] You will need to update the login table from ragnarok database. Connect again to your phpmyadmin (I.B.7) Find the table login and edit the only row available. userid must have the same value as [new user] user_pass must have the same value as [new password] char-server.conf nano conf/char-server.conf server_name: [your_server_name] wisp_server_name: Admin For some reason, you must reboot your server. reboot Close the Terminal and connect again after a minute. Now you will need to work on your server ports iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 6900 -j ACCEPT iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 5121 -j ACCEPT iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 6121 -j ACCEPT iptables save We are done with the server for now. You can log out if you want. Lets prepare our client!   II. Create the Client   A. Organization Extract the full client in C:\ro_client\RO\ and launch update with rsu-kro-renewal-lite.exe or rsu-kro-rag-lite.exe if you set a pre-re server. Extract the Ragexe.exe in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract data and System folders from the translation Package in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract the opensetup.exe in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract Mssfast.m3d and Mp3dec.asi from BGM.zip in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract N.E.M.O. content in C:\ro_client\NEMO\ Once Step 1 is DONE: Copy All *.dll and *.INI files from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\ Copy BGM and savedata folders from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\ Copy rdata.grf and data.grf files from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\ B. Configure the Client
Launch N.E.M.O. and load 2015-05-13aRagexe.exe  Hit "Select Recommended" Confirm DATA.INI Rename iteminfo.lub to iteminfo_n.lub Now search "Read Data Folder First" and check it Hit "Apply Selected" and you will have a new 2015-05-13aRagexe_patched.exe file. You should "Save Profile" now, because you will probably want to edit again your client later C. Add the translation
Rename C:\ro_client\fresh\System\itemInfo.lub to iteminfo_n.lub You might need to rename C:\ro_client\fresh\data\texture\À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º\ folder to 유저인터페이스 later, but for now, just skip this step (not sure if you encounter this problem). Open C:\ro_client\fresh\data\clientinfo.xml with a text editor (I recommend Notepad++) Update the address with your server IP <address>[ip_address]</address> Done with the translation. Now we will say to the server, which client players are using.  
III. Finish Server configuration
 
A. Compile the server
Launch Putty again and login to your server. We will compile Hercules. It will take time so be patient. cd ./Hercules ​​./configure --enable-packetver=20150513 make clean make sql once it is done, you can verify if the version has been properly set. nano src/common/mmo.h Find following lines #ifndef PACKETVER         #define PACKETVER Change #define PACKETVER to #define PACKETVER 20150513 if not done yet. If you did change something in mmo.h, you need to recompile again. Process again the step III.A.1 B. Start the server
To start the server, you simply need the following line (while being in Hercules folder) ./athena-start start  
 
IV. Player Side
 
A. Create a Game Master Account
Go to your phpmyadmin (step I.B.7) and find again the login table. Hit the Insert tab userid: [login_nickname] user_pass: [login_pass] group_id: 99 gender: M or F You have now your Game Master Account B. Play
Launch C:\ro_client\fresh\2015-05-13aRagexe_patched.exe Login with your newly created game master account Process thru in game. type @go 0 Be happy.  
V. Customize
 
A.  Back to the N.E.M.O.
This Diff patcher is really cool, be aware of that. You can now edit again your client. repeat the step II.B.1 Hit "Load Profile" and choose the previous file you created in step II.B.7 Check the list and hit option you want. repeat step II.B.6 and 7 B. Options & Fix
Remove the Pin Secure Code Be sure to always be in Hercules folder ( cd ./Hercules) ./athena-start stop ​​nano conf/import/char_conf.txt add this line: pincode_enabled: 0 process to step III.A.1 To edit clientinfo.xml, I suggest you to check the wiki page if you can't see in game button Rename C:\ro_client\fresh\data\texture\À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º to 유저인터페이스 Get Unbollox: Download (Download Page), Mirror #1 (Direct Link from my ftp) In unbollox, select the texture folder and click on À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º Changing starting point nano conf/import/char_conf.txt add start_point_re: prt_fild08,170,365 Changing starting items nano conf/import/char_conf.txt ​add start_items: 2393,1,0,5055,1,0,569,20,1 Changin starting Zeny nano conf/import/char_conf.txt add start_zeny: 5,000 == More options to come, just reply to this topic if you can't find how to do what == C.

Hello,
For some reason, I decided to write my own guide for super newbie people. And when I say newbie, I say REAL newbie. I will not ask you to learn anything or saying rude things like "go google ffs".
I believe people that want to create their server are not necessary interested being a linux master or whatever. Never people are saying that before leaning guitar, people should learn how string and guitar are made.
Enough talk, lets start !
 
 
Prerequisites
Patience, meticulousness, cogitation kRO full client: Mirror #1 (mediafire), Mirror #2 (Direct Link from my ftp) kRO last actual compatible exe: Mirror #1 (mega.nz), Mirror #2 (Direct Link from my ftp) Setup exe: Download (Page), Mirror #1 (Direct Link from my ftp) N.E.M.O. Diff Patcher Download (git) BGM parameter files. Download (Direct Link herc.ws), Mirror #1 (Direct Link from my ftp) Translation Package. Download (git) Putty: Download (Page) If Putty does not work, use Kitty Download (Page) 1~2 hours of your time Things you should know:
You cannot see password in Putty / Kitty when you type it. nano is a text editor. At the bottom of the screen you can see a menu. To use it, press CTRL + the option's letter You cannot use numeric pad in nano Being polite is always rewarding  
I. Dedicated server
 
A. Get your server
You can find very cheap solution at Kimsufi. Choose anything you want. I recommend you to choose Debian 8 (Jessie) for your OS.  In Kimsufi manager, you will find your server IP. You have your login (root) and password in an email after installing the OS B. Configure your server
Start Putty and enter server's IP address Connect with root then type the password you got by email. (You wont see " * " when you type) To change your password enter the following line passwd Install required package by enter this (copy this and paste it with a right-click): apt-get install git make gcc mysql-server libmysqlclient-dev zlib1g-dev libpcre3-dev screen ​The following is meant to make a web server. Even if you don't plan to make a website, I suggest you to take it, just because phpmyadmin is easy to use. While installing phpmyadmin, select apache2. apt-get install apache2 apt-get install php5 php5-cli libapache2-mod-php5 php5-mysql apt-get install phpmyadmin ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/html/ ​Because hercules doesn't work if you use root login, we will create a new user. useradd ragnarok passwd ragnarok [choose_a_password] Connect to phpmyadmin and login with the information you chose at this address: http://your_server_ip/phpmyadmin Create a new database ragnarok and choose utf8_unicode_ci as collation Create another database and name it ragnarok_log with same collation Click on the tab Users (top of the page), Add User and fill the form. Username: ragnarok, password: [choose_a_assword], Click on Check All in the privilege group. (or if you know what are you doing, select options you need) Now you can log out from your server in Putty logout C. Install Hercules
Login again in Kitty with the new user ragnarok Download Hercules emulator git clone https://github.com/HerculesWS/Hercules.git ~/Hercules We will need to reach the database installation folder: cd Hercules/sql-files/ We will now import tables in the database. You will have to write your mysql password each time (set in step B.4). mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < main.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok_log < logs.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db2.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db2.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db2.sql if you want to make a PRE-RENEWAL server, enter also this mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db.sql If you want to make a RENEWAL server: mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db_re.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db_re.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db_re.sql D.

Yup, must easier for everything, more safety. And you can't break your server. If you don't know how to do, check my guide at B.6 but don't read after step C. From Step D it follows the old conf system so no need to do it, it won't work.

Connect again to your phpmyadmin (I.B.7) Find the table login and edit the only row available. userid must have the same value as [new user] user_pass must have the same value as [new password] char-server.conf nano conf/char-server.conf server_name: [your_server_name] wisp_server_name: Admin For some reason, you must reboot your server. reboot Close the Terminal and connect again after a minute. Now you will need to work on your server ports iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 6900 -j ACCEPT iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 5121 -j ACCEPT iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 6121 -j ACCEPT iptables save We are done with the server for now. You can log out if you want. Lets prepare our client!   II. Create the Client   A. Organization Extract the full client in C:\ro_client\RO\ and launch update with rsu-kro-renewal-lite.exe or rsu-kro-rag-lite.exe if you set a pre-re server. Extract the Ragexe.exe in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract data and System folders from the translation Package in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract the opensetup.exe in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract Mssfast.m3d and Mp3dec.asi from BGM.zip in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract N.E.M.O. content in C:\ro_client\NEMO\ Once Step 1 is DONE: Copy All *.dll and *.INI files from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\ Copy BGM and savedata folders from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\ Copy rdata.grf and data.grf files from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\ B. Configure the Client
Launch N.E.M.O. and load 2015-05-13aRagexe.exe  Hit "Select Recommended" Confirm DATA.INI Rename iteminfo.lub to iteminfo_n.lub Now search "Read Data Folder First" and check it Hit "Apply Selected" and you will have a new 2015-05-13aRagexe_patched.exe file. You should "Save Profile" now, because you will probably want to edit again your client later C. Add the translation
Rename C:\ro_client\fresh\System\itemInfo.lub to iteminfo_n.lub You might need to rename C:\ro_client\fresh\data\texture\À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º\ folder to 유저인터페이스 later, but for now, just skip this step (not sure if you encounter this problem). Open C:\ro_client\fresh\data\clientinfo.xml with a text editor (I recommend Notepad++) Update the address with your server IP <address>[ip_address]</address> Done with the translation. Now we will say to the server, which client players are using.  
III. Finish Server configuration
 
A. Compile the server
Launch Putty again and login to your server. We will compile Hercules. It will take time so be patient. cd ./Hercules ​​./configure --enable-packetver=20150513 make clean make sql once it is done, you can verify if the version has been properly set. nano src/common/mmo.h Find following lines #ifndef PACKETVER         #define PACKETVER Change #define PACKETVER to #define PACKETVER 20150513 if not done yet. If you did change something in mmo.h, you need to recompile again. Process again the step III.A.1 B. Start the server
To start the server, you simply need the following line (while being in Hercules folder) ./athena-start start  
 
IV. Player Side
 
A. Create a Game Master Account
Go to your phpmyadmin (step I.B.7) and find again the login table. Hit the Insert tab userid: [login_nickname] user_pass: [login_pass] group_id: 99 gender: M or F You have now your Game Master Account B. Play
Launch C:\ro_client\fresh\2015-05-13aRagexe_patched.exe Login with your newly created game master account Process thru in game. type @go 0 Be happy.  
V. Customize
 
A.  Back to the N.E.M.O.
This Diff patcher is really cool, be aware of that. You can now edit again your client. repeat the step II.B.1 Hit "Load Profile" and choose the previous file you created in step II.B.7 Check the list and hit option you want. repeat step II.B.6 and 7 B. Options & Fix
Remove the Pin Secure Code Be sure to always be in Hercules folder ( cd ./Hercules) ./athena-start stop ​​nano conf/import/char_conf.txt add this line: pincode_enabled: 0 process to step III.A.1 To edit clientinfo.xml, I suggest you to check the wiki page if you can't see in game button Rename C:\ro_client\fresh\data\texture\À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º to 유저인터페이스 Get Unbollox: Download (Download Page), Mirror #1 (Direct Link from my ftp) In unbollox, select the texture folder and click on À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º Changing starting point nano conf/import/char_conf.txt add start_point_re: prt_fild08,170,365 Changing starting items nano conf/import/char_conf.txt ​add start_items: 2393,1,0,5055,1,0,569,20,1 Changin starting Zeny nano conf/import/char_conf.txt add start_zeny: 5,000 == More options to come, just reply to this topic if you can't find how to do what == C.

Hello,
For some reason, I decided to write my own guide for super newbie people. And when I say newbie, I say REAL newbie. I will not ask you to learn anything or saying rude things like "go google ffs".
I believe people that want to create their server are not necessary interested being a linux master or whatever. Never people are saying that before leaning guitar, people should learn how string and guitar are made.
Enough talk, lets start !
 
 
Prerequisites
Patience, meticulousness, cogitation kRO full client: Mirror #1 (mediafire), Mirror #2 (Direct Link from my ftp) kRO last actual compatible exe: Mirror #1 (mega.nz), Mirror #2 (Direct Link from my ftp) Setup exe: Download (Page), Mirror #1 (Direct Link from my ftp) N.E.M.O. Diff Patcher Download (git) BGM parameter files. Download (Direct Link herc.ws), Mirror #1 (Direct Link from my ftp) Translation Package. Download (git) Putty: Download (Page) If Putty does not work, use Kitty Download (Page) 1~2 hours of your time Things you should know:
You cannot see password in Putty / Kitty when you type it. nano is a text editor. At the bottom of the screen you can see a menu. To use it, press CTRL + the option's letter You cannot use numeric pad in nano Being polite is always rewarding  
I. Dedicated server
 
A. Get your server
You can find very cheap solution at Kimsufi. Choose anything you want. I recommend you to choose Debian 8 (Jessie) for your OS.  In Kimsufi manager, you will find your server IP. You have your login (root) and password in an email after installing the OS B. Configure your server
Start Putty and enter server's IP address Connect with root then type the password you got by email. (You wont see " * " when you type) To change your password enter the following line passwd Install required package by enter this (copy this and paste it with a right-click): apt-get install git make gcc mysql-server libmysqlclient-dev zlib1g-dev libpcre3-dev screen ​The following is meant to make a web server. Even if you don't plan to make a website, I suggest you to take it, just because phpmyadmin is easy to use. While installing phpmyadmin, select apache2. apt-get install apache2 apt-get install php5 php5-cli libapache2-mod-php5 php5-mysql apt-get install phpmyadmin ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/html/ ​Because hercules doesn't work if you use root login, we will create a new user. useradd ragnarok passwd ragnarok [choose_a_password] Connect to phpmyadmin and login with the information you chose at this address: http://your_server_ip/phpmyadmin Create a new database ragnarok and choose utf8_unicode_ci as collation Create another database and name it ragnarok_log with same collation Click on the tab Users (top of the page), Add User and fill the form. Username: ragnarok, password: [choose_a_assword], Click on Check All in the privilege group. (or if you know what are you doing, select options you need) Now you can log out from your server in Putty logout C. Install Hercules
Login again in Kitty with the new user ragnarok Download Hercules emulator git clone https://github.com/HerculesWS/Hercules.git ~/Hercules We will need to reach the database installation folder: cd Hercules/sql-files/ We will now import tables in the database. You will have to write your mysql password each time (set in step B.4). mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < main.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok_log < logs.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db2.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db2.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db2.sql if you want to make a PRE-RENEWAL server, enter also this mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db.sql If you want to make a RENEWAL server: mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db_re.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db_re.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db_re.sql D. Configure hercules
It is required to set up a server login and password for char-server, map-server and the login database. It can be done by editing few files and the table login. Start by editing conf/inter-server.conf. cd ../​​ nano conf/inter-server.conf Find the line sql.db_username and fill it with the user and password we created in step B.10. fill also the database name with ragnarok As the same time, you will need to edit conf/import/inter_conf.txt. nano conf/import/inter_conf.txt sql.db_username: ragnarok sql.db_password: your_sql_password sql.db_database: ragnarok log_db_id: ragnarok log_db_pw: your_sql_password log_db_db: ragnarok_log now edit conf/import/char_conf.txt and fill it with this following text nano conf/import/char_conf.txt // Server Communication username and password.
userid: [new user]
passwd: [new password] Do the same to conf/import/map_conf.txt with the same userid and passwd. nano conf/import/map_conf.txt // Server Communication username and password. userid: [new user]
passwd: [new password] You will need to update the login table from ragnarok database. Connect again to your phpmyadmin (I.B.7) Find the table login and edit the only row available. userid must have the same value as [new user] user_pass must have the same value as [new password] char-server.conf nano conf/char-server.conf server_name: [your_server_name] wisp_server_name: Admin For some reason, you must reboot your server. reboot Close the Terminal and connect again after a minute.

I could not agree more. But your guide makes it possible to host server without almost any knowledge at all. At that point, "should" and "should not" -things don't really matter.
 
If you need help with next guide, i'm up. I was actually thinking to make a Debian guide myself, with exception of using two servers, one for emulator and one for web-server. But i never seem to have time to do it.

You need to write it manually in every .json files (C:\....\data.grf) but after that, I couldn't make it works anyway.
 
please someone make a new editor ahah

Kimsufi server are ultra light. I don't know how many players you have but it is certainly a' overload problem

Extract the Ragexe.exe in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract data and System folders from the translation Package in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract the opensetup.exe in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract Mssfast.m3d and Mp3dec.asi from BGM.zip in C:\ro_client\fresh\ Extract N.E.M.O. content in C:\ro_client\NEMO\ Once Step 1 is DONE: Copy All *.dll and *.INI files from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\ Copy BGM and savedata folders from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\ Copy rdata.grf and data.grf files from C:\ro_client\RO\ to C:\ro_client\fresh\ B. Configure the Client
Launch N.E.M.O. and load 2015-05-13aRagexe.exe  Hit "Select Recommended" Confirm DATA.INI Rename iteminfo.lub to iteminfo_n.lub Now search "Read Data Folder First" and check it Hit "Apply Selected" and you will have a new 2015-05-13aRagexe_patched.exe file. You should "Save Profile" now, because you will probably want to edit again your client later C. Add the translation
Rename C:\ro_client\fresh\System\itemInfo.lub to iteminfo_n.lub You might need to rename C:\ro_client\fresh\data\texture\À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º\ folder to 유저인터페이스 later, but for now, just skip this step (not sure if you encounter this problem). Open C:\ro_client\fresh\data\clientinfo.xml with a text editor (I recommend Notepad++) Update the address with your server IP <address>[ip_address]</address> Done with the translation. Now we will say to the server, which client players are using.  
III. Finish Server configuration
 
A. Compile the server
Launch Putty again and login to your server. We will compile Hercules. It will take time so be patient. cd ./Hercules ​​./configure --enable-packetver=20150513 make clean make sql once it is done, you can verify if the version has been properly set. nano src/common/mmo.h Find following lines #ifndef PACKETVER         #define PACKETVER Change #define PACKETVER to #define PACKETVER 20150513 if not done yet. If you did change something in mmo.h, you need to recompile again. Process again the step III.A.1 B. Start the server
To start the server, you simply need the following line (while being in Hercules folder) ./athena-start start  
 
IV. Player Side
 
A. Create a Game Master Account
Go to your phpmyadmin (step I.B.7) and find again the login table. Hit the Insert tab userid: [login_nickname] user_pass: [login_pass] group_id: 99 gender: M or F You have now your Game Master Account B. Play
Launch C:\ro_client\fresh\2015-05-13aRagexe_patched.exe Login with your newly created game master account Process thru in game. type @go 0 Be happy.  
V. Customize
 
A.  Back to the N.E.M.O.
This Diff patcher is really cool, be aware of that. You can now edit again your client. repeat the step II.B.1 Hit "Load Profile" and choose the previous file you created in step II.B.7 Check the list and hit option you want. repeat step II.B.6 and 7 B. Options & Fix

Hello,
For some reason, I decided to write my own guide for super newbie people. And when I say newbie, I say REAL newbie. I will not ask you to learn anything or saying rude things like "go google ffs".
I believe people that want to create their server are not necessary interested being a linux master or whatever. Never people are saying that before leaning guitar, people should learn how string and guitar are made.
Enough talk, lets start !
 
 
Prerequisites
Patience, meticulousness, cogitation kRO full client: Mirror #1 (mediafire), Mirror #2 (Direct Link from my ftp) kRO last actual compatible exe: Mirror #1 (mega.nz), Mirror #2 (Direct Link from my ftp) Setup exe: Download (Page), Mirror #1 (Direct Link from my ftp) N.E.M.O. Diff Patcher Download (git) BGM parameter files. Download (Direct Link herc.ws), Mirror #1 (Direct Link from my ftp) Translation Package. Download (git) Putty: Download (Page) If Putty does not work, use Kitty Download (Page) 1~2 hours of your time Things you should know:
You cannot see password in Putty / Kitty when you type it. nano is a text editor. At the bottom of the screen you can see a menu. To use it, press CTRL + the option's letter You cannot use numeric pad in nano Being polite is always rewarding  
I. Dedicated server
 
A. Get your server
You can find very cheap solution at Kimsufi. Choose anything you want. I recommend you to choose Debian 8 (Jessie) for your OS.  In Kimsufi manager, you will find your server IP. You have your login (root) and password in an email after installing the OS B. Configure your server
Start Putty and enter server's IP address Connect with root then type the password you got by email. (You wont see " * " when you type) To change your password enter the following line passwd Install required package by enter this (copy this and paste it with a right-click): apt-get install git make gcc mysql-server libmysqlclient-dev zlib1g-dev libpcre3-dev screen ​The following is meant to make a web server. Even if you don't plan to make a website, I suggest you to take it, just because phpmyadmin is easy to use. While installing phpmyadmin, select apache2. apt-get install apache2 apt-get install php5 php5-cli libapache2-mod-php5 php5-mysql apt-get install phpmyadmin ln -s /usr/share/phpmyadmin /var/www/html/ ​Because hercules doesn't work if you use root login, we will create a new user. useradd ragnarok passwd ragnarok [choose_a_password] Connect to phpmyadmin and login with the information you chose at this address: http://your_server_ip/phpmyadmin Create a new database ragnarok and choose utf8_unicode_ci as collation Create another database and name it ragnarok_log with same collation Click on the tab Users (top of the page), Add User and fill the form. Username: ragnarok, password: [choose_a_assword], Click on Check All in the privilege group. (or if you know what are you doing, select options you need) Now you can log out from your server in Putty logout C. Install Hercules
Login again in Kitty with the new user ragnarok Download Hercules emulator git clone https://github.com/HerculesWS/Hercules.git ~/Hercules We will need to reach the database installation folder: cd Hercules/sql-files/ We will now import tables in the database. You will have to write your mysql password each time (set in step B.4). mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < main.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok_log < logs.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db2.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db2.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db2.sql if you want to make a PRE-RENEWAL server, enter also this mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db.sql If you want to make a RENEWAL server: mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < item_db_re.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_db_re.sql mysql -u ragnarok -p ragnarok < mob_skill_db_re.sql D. Configure hercules
It is required to set up a server login and password for char-server, map-server and the login database. It can be done by editing few files and the table login. Start by editing conf/inter-server.conf. cd ../​​ nano conf/inter-server.conf Find the line sql.db_username and fill it with the user and password we created in step B.10. fill also the database name with ragnarok As the same time, you will need to edit conf/import/inter_conf.txt. nano conf/import/inter_conf.txt sql.db_username: ragnarok sql.db_password: your_sql_password sql.db_database: ragnarok log_db_id: ragnarok log_db_pw: your_sql_password log_db_db: ragnarok_log now edit conf/import/char_conf.txt and fill it with this following text nano conf/import/char_conf.txt // Server Communication username and password.
userid: [new user]
passwd: [new password] Do the same to conf/import/map_conf.txt with the same userid and passwd. nano conf/import/map_conf.txt // Server Communication username and password. userid: [new user]
passwd: [new password] You will need to update the login table from ragnarok database. Connect again to your phpmyadmin (I.B.7) Find the table login and edit the only row available. userid must have the same value as [new user] user_pass must have the same value as [new password] char-server.conf nano conf/char-server.conf server_name: [your_server_name] wisp_server_name: Admin For some reason, you must reboot your server. reboot Close the Terminal and connect again after a minute. Now you will need to work on your server ports iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 6900 -j ACCEPT iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 5121 -j ACCEPT iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 6121 -j ACCEPT iptables save We are done with the server for now. You can log out if you want. Lets prepare our client!   II. Create the Client   A. Organization Extract the full client in C:\ro_client\RO\ and launch update with rsu-kro-renewal-lite.exe or rsu-kro-rag-lite.exe if you set a pre-re server.

Configure the Client
Launch N.E.M.O. and load 2015-05-13aRagexe.exe  Hit "Select Recommended" Confirm DATA.INI Rename iteminfo.lub to iteminfo_n.lub Now search "Read Data Folder First" and check it Hit "Apply Selected" and you will have a new 2015-05-13aRagexe_patched.exe file. You should "Save Profile" now, because you will probably want to edit again your client later C. Add the translation
Rename C:\ro_client\fresh\System\itemInfo.lub to iteminfo_n.lub You might need to rename C:\ro_client\fresh\data\texture\À¯ÀúÀÎÅÍÆäÀ̽º\ folder to 유저인터페이스 later, but for now, just skip this step (not sure if you encounter this problem).

Introducing - Pre-Renewal Database
I've been working constantly on this pre-renewal database. The idea behind this database is to cater to the Pre-Renewal users. The only thing that will be Renewal in this database is when you use the Skill Search, you will be getting the Third Job Skills as well. I believe those who are still in love with Pre-Renewal might want a database just based on that, pre-renewal and not renewal. There is really no point on this database being both Pre-Renewal and Renewal when really, Divine-Pride has Renewal covered.
 
Please keep in mind that this database is still in BETA mode. When browsing the database, there could be some bugs you encounter. The database is still going through some design changes so don't freight if you see something out of place.
 
Features
Database is integrated - connected to the forums & homepage. Items and Monster DatabaseSeparated by Episodes Spawns & Maps DatabaseSeparated by Episodes Skill Search NPC Search (including their map location, name, NPC ID, etc.) Various Calculators (EDP, Cooking, Refiner, etc.) Different Databases (i.e. Potions, Arrows, Converters, Elements, etc.) Sprite Viewer and more!
