INTRODUCTION:
I'm very excited about the private community for Tera Online, and right now most of it is in Korean / Russian, and because of this it is difficult to figure out how to do things. I don't know Russian but I do know how to make the game run!
DOWNLOAD INSTRUCTIONS:
1) The first thing that you need to do is download the Korean client. This will take a while but there's a torrent and there's plenty of seeders. Please seed after you're done downloading! Here's the link:
(you'll probably need to register to their site in order to download the torrent). The actual page where the torrent is located at is found here:
2) You'll need to create an account for the server so once everything is installed you can login and enjoy the game. Register at this website:
3) Now download the client
Make sure you keep the client somewhere, where you'll be able to grab it during the installation...
SETUP INSTRUCTIONS:
Once you have successfully downloaded the specific torrent, you will need to extract all the files into an English folder (Not Korean). Before you do this YOU WILL NEED Microsoft .net Framework 4. You can get this by running windows update and selecting Microsoft .net Framework 4 or you can download it here:
1) Make Sure that your path looks like C:\TERA\ NOT C:\TERA\TERA -1\ **NOTE: It can be drive D:\ drive E:\ etc... **
2) After about half an hour of extracting all the files, you will need to delete C:\TERA\version.ini
3) Now because version.ini is deleted, a new one will be created in its place when you run TERA_Invoker.exe (RUN THIS!)
4) It may take a minute before it updates and be sure to disable firewalls and virus scanners so you don't run into errors (this may take a while)
5) Close the window and a notification will ask you ????????? just select yes to confirm that you want to close the application
6) Now version.ini (C:\TERA\version.ini) has been recreated from the korean patcher. Edit it and where you see "CDSIP: xxx.xxx.xxx" (x's can be whatever) replace the IP address with "193.169.87.245" (without quotes) [SAVE then EXIT]
7) Now place the client that you downloaded earlier into C:\TERA\CUTera_SmartLaunch.exe
8) Run CUTera_SmartLaunch.exe and login with your credentials
9) Wait for Game Guard to update... There may be an error message about a file being invalid, ignore it and eventually you'll get a purple screen with two buttons. Click on the highlighted purple button on the left.
10) Select the server and click on the button on the left (the right one will refresh the server list)
11) Create your character and enjoy the game!
