[Release] BMR Client & Serverfiles

[HellSpider]

Hi. I made this thread to preserve an unmodified Action 3 client (with Action 2 executables obviously) before all references to such clients are dead.

What I'm going to post is a link to a cleaned up Action 3 gameclient (2Moons BMR) converted to work with a modified Action 2 Dekaron.exe .

Certain files in the share have been modified for the Action 2 format, but the content is still Action 3. Also non compatible things were deleted and file data errors corrected (0 errors in the debug log).

I have also edited Action 2 server executables and removed useless files.

I attached my debug string monitor too, which I have updated recently.

These will run on Win7. You don't need to use WinXP on VMWare.

Tutorials on how to edit these executables:



Dekaron.exe modifications:

+ PE header rebuilt to original state
+ Resources changed (icon, version info)
+ Internal exception handler rewritten (= detailed information messagebox on crash events)
+ Localization removed (= "USA folder" cheats no longer useable)
+ HP can now exceed 65535 (= HP bug fixed)

DekaronServer.exe modifications:

+ PE header rebuilt to original state
+ Resources added (icon, version info)
+ Removed imports to Encryption.dll (the DLL is useless, just a waste of process memory)
+ Cleaned the debug string output (removed junk and empty lines).
+ HP can now exceed 65535 (= HP bug fixed)

Rest of the subservers:

+ Resources added (icon, version info)
+ Removed imports to Encryption.dll (the DLL is useless, just a waste of process memory)

Cleaned ready-to-go database backups by @:




The serverfiles package includes the Win7Launcher created by @.

I have told ppl a million times to use these kinda old files to learn how to dev but they never listen all they want is a fully working client what has all done for them . But the exes are nice hp bug fixed , they can be a good use in all those crappy OP servers which has 74473938489 stats at max lvl

Another big reason for making this thread was that all the time I keep reading posts from disoriented people who have no idea where to start. This is like the most basic gameclient one can start with. No custom content or modifications in the data files. And not a million different threads where one should download separate parts of a private server.

Hello everyone, I tried this game for the first time a few days ago .. is very cool! thank you very much Hellspider! You deserve a thanks! I would be very interested to have my own small server .. I understand that the changes to make a server "unique" is through the exes editing! I know a VERY little of asm .. but I have seen that there are various tutorials to learn

HellSpider thanks again for the files! Starting from scratch is the best for those who want to learn something

I plan to release tutorials on how to edit the executables in this package as soon as I got some time. A server can be just as unique with just data file edits too, you just need to have some imagination.

I found this thread:

There are not much tutorials, but its a good start to get familiar with the executables I would LOVE to learn how to add a new class on the exes but i think thats too much for now

Everything works fine for me.

For the dshop problem check Server\DekaronServer\regist.csv
Make sure that the 9th line is: BILLINGTYPE,GAMEHI

Can't say for sure, but what I know of, it is fixed. If someone proves me wrong I will attempt to fix it too.
