Bugtrap Ch5 and "release" to local network

07/14/2021 13:36 Admiral Meerkat#1
Hello,
I stumbled across Dragonica P Servers when i realized that dragon saga was back at EU and i was becoming curious if I could just make myself a Server to play with some friends and testing out stuff myself when i dont need a big player base.
I stumbled across the Hydra Client and Serversetup for Chapter 5 and I got that running on localhost. But Im having trouble getting into Elga, Van Cliff and Port of Winds. The Error seems to be caused by Kernelbase.dll and I have the Suspicion it might be due to my AMD Processor. ( im also pretty new to this kind of server managment etc so I m neither good at troubleshooting stuff lke that ). I tried manually downloading dx9 for win10 , since i thought it might be coming from that, but that didnt fix it. So im wondering if maybe anyone else also experienced that Issue, maybe fixed it??, as far as I found out its POW, Elga Dungeon and Van Cliff Dungeon (any of those), Red Queen, ICe Tower
For my 2nd Question I would like to know if any of you ever just hosted a Server for your friends via Hamachi or the likes. Is it possible to just change all the local ips to the Hamachi Ip and also in the Client so friends could connect to it, or is there any more to that?
Cheers and sorry for the long text

TL;DR: Dragonica Hydra Ch5, Bugtrap System32/kernelbase.dll when entering POW,Elga Dungeon,VC Dungeon,Red Queen, Ice Tower
& How to open a server to local networks like hamachi or lan.

For the first part, I don't have this issue, maybe try other binaries or use the sources to compile yours.
Also it can't be related to dx9 since the game wouldn't boot if you don't have required DLLs.

For the second part change the censored IP by your own public IP :

Screen 1 - DR2_SiteConfig / dbo.TB_SiteServer
Screen 2 / 3 - DR2_SiteConfig / dbo.TB_Realm

Then open ports : 11002, 11801, 13002, 12121, 12021, 12011

That's it.

Edit : Oh and also edit config.inb to your IP, also note that you might encounter an issue where the game would instantly crash, just hex edit the IP or look into the source code and compile your own client without this IP check

Thanks first of all for the thing with the Ips.
How do you mean, try other Binaries and recompile. Recompiling will become hard since i do not have any sourcecode to the clients applications. oh and what i forgot to mention was that the stack trace points toMSVCR80.dll which I then replaced by a freshly downloaded one in case it was corrupt but that didnt change a thing

You can use source code posted by Paris here => [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]
Just compile archangel and copy the exe at their right place.

(Ok I just noticed, Paris was kind enough to provide binaries too, you just need to download those files and redo the setup (client, server and database)

And MAYBE (I doubt but you can still try) your issue is being caused by the lack of visual redistributable 2005 libraries that you can download here (x86 not x64)
