Hey everyone long time player of 2moons/dekaron. After Nexon royally ******** it up and making it impossible for me to play without lag and bug issues here in California I've decided to open up a private server of my own. Currently its not open for public other then a few friends, because all i've gotten so far is the server running and client connecting.. heres the issue we're having.
Using the BMR Action3 client and server files I believe a person name Hellspider (or something in that lines uploaded, terribly sorry if i got the name wrong)
Lots of things seem to be really bugged, items specificly so far.
We noticed picking up some items (doesnt happen to all of them) will get stuck in inventory and not be able to be moved again without relogging.
Some items also show as one thing on my screen EX: a lvl 18 mage wand on my screen, went to trade it to another player and on there screen it was a healing potion. Any idea whats up with this?
Potions are bugged too, it will show that we have 50 potions left, then they stop working all together or will all of a sudden say 2 potions and not work. Also the NPC's in map for potions charge a but ton of dil to purchase. Like 1k dil for 5 Great Health Potions. Skill books get kinda bugged, you can't read them all at once.
My goal is to run an ORIGIONAL 2moons action3 server, default Acclaim rates for EXP and DROPS.
Also, in the future how would i go about setting up a registration page and client updater?
Does anyone know if the 130 gear is available in this client/server files? I want to make it as origional as i can, because i loved the 2moons that was hard.. leveling to easy and having hacked up skills/gear is no fun to me and my 2moons freaky friends. Any help would be greatly appreciated. If we can get things working the way they were all those years ago, I plan to release the server to the public for the hardcore 2mooners like me that love the old ****!
every question you asked can be answered simply by searching and reading posts
"My goal is to run an ORIGIONAL 2moons action3 server, default Acclaim rates for EXP and DROPS" -- LMFAO, have fun with that and all 3 players you will have i am sure 20 ppl will jump on this statement talking about how they would love it if some one did, but you are about the 60th person to have this goal, and you will be the 60th person with a server of 3 players
its quite obvious your server files and client files dont match
you will have to look thru the files and see if all of that is in there
and just FYI, you are gonna need to learn how this thing works, this isnt WoW or cabal, this isnt an emulator, these are actual server files, they are a mess, the ppl that made them apparently didnt talk to one another, its going to be a horrific process and if you dont know how everything works together then you fail right out of the gate, this is something you will have to learn on your own, trial and error, loys of reading and searching (dont depend on the search feature here on the forums, use google with the site name) you will be reading posts from 8 years back at least
this sint something u can throw together in a week, or even a month, if you were planning on that with your limited knowledge (yes its that obvious) then hang it up now, its not going to happen, you will be on this for the next 6-8 months and even then you will be updating and fixing stuff weekly if not daily for months after, and that when you do have some expertise on how it works, thats not even counting the time you will have to train yourself, and before you come back in a month bitching about how no one is handing you all the answers to your questions, the vets here learned everything on their own doing exactly what i just told you to do, we have spent years working with these files, we wont so easily release the knowledge we spent the time on, prove yourself a worthy dev, then things will be shared with you, but until then expect to get bad and wrong info constantly by ppl, there are only a very limited and small handful of ppl here that actually know wtf they are talking about, 95% of these ppl are hopeless morons as you will see as you spend the next few weeks sifting thru posts learning
Yeah.. the bullshit isn't really needed but i do appreciate the input. I've gotten some of it figured out now (and really i've got unlimited amounts of professional hosting available to me, and the friends that i had from Global were the ones that wanted this in the first place, so if its only 10 of us playing, oh well.. its fun to me and them)
I've been going through posts here and other sites, google etc and ffs it seems no one can keep a solid upload for any kind of files or be able to speak English well enough to try explaining what they are doing.. I've gotten the potion and item bug fixed. My client still has the V inventory bag/slot. The fix I found didn't work, so if anyone has any ideas that would be great.
A working tut/files for registration pages (as im not all that familiar with SQL and databases anymore been years since I've worked with them). What about fixes for NPC's names and not showing up on the maps. EX: Manuel's teleporter into Aquiral Ruins, the newbie maze dg doesn't work at all. Skill NPC's in Braiken and Loa don't appear, but the names hover there.
Skill fixes for some of the classes, the summoners "Spirit Dagger" is all sorts of ****.
Without starting a flame war, if theres someone out there willing to work with me a little here and there, or help me DEV on the server (keep in mind.. this will be ran almost identical to how it actually was back then) so if its not your thing don't come askin to GM or whatever greedy little power hungry kids do. I'm limited on time, and plan to offer this free to everyone. There may be some "newer" content that would be nice to add just for affects/looks. I would like to keep the skills old school though, if theres a way to add ONLY the 151 wings and weapons without that ****** +10 etc system let me know please.
Alright so we've got the server up, clients working. Me and a few buddies have been playing on it all night, it feels exactly like the old action3 2moons! Lovin it!
Back to the grind days!
Registration page is up, client is uploaded to a host.
I do need some help, and possibly someone with some good experience to help me though if anyones interested in going back to the origional 2moons way of gaming, (yanno.. the grind... the real pk/guild wars and slow leveling) this is gunna be the server for you!
I need help fixing quests (The tracker as well, shows quests that you can't get from the npc's)
No teleporter to Aquirai Ruins from Manuel
AK skill merchant invisible in Loa, I already fixed the summy one that was broken in Braiken.
Get space working?! I crash jumping to it with gm character, bad cords maybe? Or maybe the map isn't loading? I'm pretty sure i seen it load map /RedCell/47_plane_of_pilgrimage or whatever during server launch.
I haven't gotten to test DF yet either, because the mobs don't drop vouchers!!! How can I start fixing some of these? I've been googling for days, and only finding bits and pieces of info thats been broken up into junk year after year.
You really need to search and do your research to get familiar with the files. All the answers are on this forum in old threads.
For teleport, look in the share\arrange folder. teleport.csv and location.csv control where you teleport to.
For NPC, look in share\creature\npc.csv and look at the NPC jobs. For the visibility, look at script\shape\npc_shape.csv and make sure the texture, mesh,anim,skel files are all correct.
For quests, look at data\share\quest\quest_office.csv, questfilelist.csv and questtable.csv for quests CC quests. For map issues, look in maplist.csv.

Yea I kinda figured, any edit i make in my clients files also need to be exactly the same on the server share? I recently was injured at work, like within the last two weeks that caused some trauma injury in my head causing extreme headaches/migranes...been hard todeal with. Reading through all the lines in the CSV files are really doing a number on my head.. hence why i was asking for someone elses help... Also, i've edited my dshop files, i want the server to be 100% free to players, I changed the "Cash" values in cashitem.csv and cash_itemlist.csv to 0. It shows ingame as zero, but says an error when you attempt to buy from dshop.
I know i'm asking alot, but im a 2moons diehard with some issues that I can't figure out, snarky jerky remarks and general rudeness replies are completely uncalled for.... if you're willing to help... please do so....
Sorry to hear you are going through a hard time with your health. However, maybe you should get someone else who has experience to set up the server for you if you can't handle going through the CSV files. The community is willing to help and point you in the right direction, but no one will answer each of your posts with details on how to fix an issue. You have to search, read and do a lot of trial and error. This is how we all did it. Running the server for free is a nice gesture, but you will soon realize that it's a lot of work to run a server and if you have nothing to offer a DEV to work for you, then most people won't work for free forever. As for Dshop, you have to change prices in 2 files. item_cash and cashop_itemlist. The price in both files need to be the same. The share folder on the client needs to be exactly the same as the server.
Here's some links to get you started:
I also attached another set of tutorials for you as well.

I greatly appreciate your help! It seems some of my files still have descriptions in Korean I got dshop working free, and for me its not about making money. Maybe at some point if the server gets over loaded but unlikely, its about bringing back the origional dekaron I fell in love with and hoping old schoolers like me come back. Its well worth the cost of having a free server
I can read and read all day, but so much is in broken English it makes it incredibly confusing lol!!! I want to add voucher drops to monsters, they dont seem to be dropping any at all.. but the item lists have some korean descrips, so i have no idea how to add them to the mobs. I wanted that origional "oh shit gotta go farm vouchers!" instead of just having them in the NPC like everyone else... have you accomplished this?
I also kinda had darkavatar working... KINDA. The skill is incredibly slow, casts extremely far from the summoner and goes in weird directions.
Spirit dagger I broke all together lol. Any tips? I know these questions have been asked a million times before, but the search feature here kinda sucks, and google hasn't been much help either. Or threads get locked by flamers before they are answered descriptively. The tutorials you linked me to help for everything except proper item placement and skill fixes
I know what you mean about the broken English and Korean files. Here's an online service that translates documents for you. Text, excel, Word etc:
For monster drops, you look at share/item/itemlist.csv make your own set by adding a new index number and adding the item index of the item you want to drop. It's all based on 100000. So if you have 10 items in your set and you want them to have a 50% drop rate, set each item rate at 5000. Then, you need to add the index of the item set to the index of the mob you want to drop the set in share\creature\monster.csv. Using Excel, the number of sets the mob drops is in column AT. Column GU starts with the index number od the item set you want to drop. There is a max of 15 sets a mob can drop. Rate is also based on 100k divided by 15.
The skills are a pain, you need to change the values in the share\skill folder. Make sure all the files link properly too.
Tip for searching, do something like this in google:
dekaron darkavatar site:elitepvpers.com
it will search your keywords only on this site.
What do you mean by all the files link properly? Obviously its not just a text file that makes things pop, so where would i locate the animations/textures etc for the skills? So far only the 2 summy skills that don't work at all... there are a couple other skills that are just really screwball too, only doing 100 dmg, or the affects cause the monster to heal etc. So i've got some fine tuning to do.
I was just playing around with an a9 client that had a working dark avatar and spirit dagger, can i yank files from that client and upload them to my server/client and just change the icon index tabs? I've gotten dark avatar working now on my side, but its not right... It shows the animations, and it hits proper amount of times but the animation is slow and casts pretty far from the character and or in the wrong direction lol.
With my head injury im having a very hard time sifting through the files, as CSV files are a joke for organization anyway. Would've been so much smarter to make them batch script files that would only hog resources during initial server boot.. anyway whatever.
The tuts you linked me too, are such broken English its very hard for me to follow... no idea how anyone else understands that lol
I still haven't figured out how to add vouchers to the mobs, maybe I'm missing a file? Tons to fix, a little more support or someone willing to come on a team and DEV/GM with me would be awesome. This server wont be going anywhere.
in looking thru the files, you will see most will link together via index numbers mostly, but also via file names and paths, example, the item shape file will share an index with the item index found in the item files, of course this is a crude example, most files have a slightly more complex way of linking together.
as far as the skills, some of the newer skills will need the functionality in the exe in order to work properly, the A9 exes will already have the functionality built in, while the A2-3 exes will not.
mob drops are a prime example of how the files will link together, the itemset file has sets of items, each with their own drop rate for each item in the set, that set will have an index, that index will be put on the actual mob, each mob can have several itemsets, each with their own drop rate as well, so item -> itemset -> mob file
the tuts are broken english a little bit, but if you mess with the files more and research how the interact with one another, the more those tuts will make sense

Questions about server files/client matching
i am sure 20 ppl will jump on this statement talking about how they would love it if some one did, but you are about the 60th person to have this goal, and you will be the 60th person with a server of 3 players
