1 advice:
Use the 4.18 client just for learning some basics how the client in general works in combination with the old-server files. Then try to connect a new client to some DB. And start from there.
You cant use 4.18 for anything, because the graphics aren't compatible with newer versions. So you cant add skills, maps, mobs etc from newer clients.
Alot there is to know about the 4.18client with the old server files can be found on the following forum.

Dont try to reinvent the wheel, use what's known already. And lastly, if you are mainly working with the old client sofar, then 99% of the work is still in the future.
