Hello, does anyone have a French launcher 9.5.2 or would you know how to change the language of a server + launcher because I searched everywhere but no trace of a French launcher in 9.5.2, and the most recent launcher on the official site of rappelz does not work because the version is not good. Is there a way to update the server so that the latest launcher works?

[Alismart102]

I want server files

Aurora princess launcher, server launcher, and captinherlock

I looked them up but I couldn't find a vaild link

thanks in advance if you're willing to help

Good afternoon, tell me, I downloaded files 9,6,2 for a local game , but I can't log on to the server , the character's name is not correct. Help with advice)

[ThunderNikk]

If you mean the account name or password is not correct.

It usually means you have not correctly MD5 hashed the account password with the MD5 key

[demonama]

Not) I go in and already where it is necessary to write the name of the character, he writes an incorrect name every time

[ThunderNikk]

So you can log in to the server, you just cant create a character.

Something to do with your allowed characters, or banned text, or special characters on a keyboard language that you are not launching the game in. I cant check now because I don't have any files in front of me but I can look for you when I get out of work.

Guys, hi everyone. I want to create a local Rappelz server to play solo, in my spare time, but I'm completely clueless about it. I've watched a few tutorials, but each of the tutorials I've watched just show the necessary actions, without any explanation as to what is what and what function it performs. So I have the following questions:

- What are "game files"? What function do they fulfill? What are they for?
- What is a "client"? What function does it fulfill? What is it for?
- What are "databases"? What function do they perform? What are they for?
- In particular, what are each of the "databases": Arcadia, Auth, Telecaster?
- What is "Microsoft SQL Server" and why should I use it? Is it possible to use other software instead of Microsoft SQL Server? PostgreSQL / SQLite for example? Why do all the tutorials use Microsoft SQL Server and not other software?
- It seems that Microsoft SQL Server is a paid software. Does the free version have any limitations that may prevent the server from being configured correctly?
- Do I understand correctly that there is some dependency between "databases" and Microsoft SQL Server, and that certain "databases" require Microsoft SQL Server of a certain version - no lower and no higher?
- Do I understand correctly that there is also some dependency between "client" and "game files", and certain "game files" require a certain "client"?
- Are there any other dependencies that need to be considered?
- Can you give me any other recommendations when running my local server that might help me avoid possible errors?

If anyone has some spare time, please answer these questions. It is difficult for me to act "blind" without understanding what I am doing and for what purpose. This information is very lacking in tutorials. I really want to play Rappelz like in the old days, on epic 8.1, but I don't like the official servers at all, and I would feel more comfortable if I can completely customize the game to my preferences.

Thanks!

Thats a lot of questions...

- Game files are the files that the servers use for reference files they usually contain, lua files for scripting purposes, map files for how the world is laid out, and also the various server executable files. Princess Aurora is the authentication server and Captain Herlock is the game server. There are also other server executable files like a log server and an upload server which handles guild icons.

- A client is what a player downloads that allows them to play a publishers game.

- Databases store the data that the server uses to store game information. Arcadia is the game information it has tables for all of the monsters, drops, items, and everything else. Auth is the authentication server it handles log in authentications and accounts. Telecaster is the game progress storage, it handles all of the characters created for an account, everything that they have in their inventory, everything the have in storage or warehouse and other things of that nature like where they last logged out. What guilds they are in what guilds they created.

- Microsoft SQL server allows the databases to be restored and to work with connections to the game server exe files. You can use the developer version of microsoft sql server for free its only stipulation is that you can not use it to develop and deploy professional databases. So using it to run a local game server is perfectly fine. All you need to download the latest microsoft SQL server is a microsoft account. You probably can use something else but why bother going through all the set up trouble when you have SQL server you can use.

- The dependency comes in where the server file back up casts are made. For example if a back up file is made using SQL server 2014 you can not restore that back up with an earlier version of SQL server like 2012 because it does not have compatibility with the later version of SQL server. You can use any version after 2014 to restore 2014 back up files. As I said just grab the latest version and you wont have to worry about what version they saved the back up files on to create the release.

- Pretty much in order to minimize the amount of bugs you run into the client needs to be as close as possible of a match to the server files you have chosen to work with. There are a lot of client tools where you can adjust things that are not correct in the client to better match the server files but that is a whole other can of worms to be opened later.

- Just having the correct settings in the .opt files which are the configuration files that the server exe files use when they are started up.

- Follow the tutorials for your particular server files version release as closely as you can and when you run into a snag come back and ask about it. Most of the time people will be kind enough to at least point you in the right direction.

I hope this helps more than confuses.

I want to create my own server, could you help me?

[r4nd0mncknm]

Guys, I need your help =(

So far, I've been successful:
- Installed Microsoft SQL Server and SQL Server Management Studio
- Configured the settings in SQL Server Configuration Manager
- Restored databases in SQL Server Management Studio
- Configured gameserver.opt and authserver.opt (and compressed them via RappelzCompress_v2).
- Started PrincessAuroraServer and CaptainHerlockServer without errors (`start_service` and `set game.open_external 1` were executed in PrincessAuroraServer)
- Created an account in SQL Server Management Studio > Databases > Auth > Tables > dbo.Account
- Created a working launcher.bat with (hopefully) the correct parameters

... and then I need to go to the game and log in. And then there are 4 variants of events:

Scenario 01:
I am using the Rappelz Vanilla 8.1 private server client () as a client, but with my own parameters in launcher.bat.
Result:
When I enter my details on the login screen and click "log in" - nothing happens. Nothing at all. The game does not close with any error, and no error is displayed. I just click "log in" and stay on the login screen.

Scenario 02:
I use the 8.1 client as client (I create an 8.1 server) from this thread (), but with the SFrame replaced with the Philippine SFrame (which has GameGuard cut out) from this thread ()
Result:
I successfully log into my account, select the server and log into the game for the created character, but after a short period of time (1-2 minutes) the game client closes with the error

Connection Error: Connection for GameGuard has timed out.(101)

.
... which, as far as I understand, is quite expected, because in one of the topics someone already wrote that SFrame with GameGuard cut out of them are not usable, because the game crashes after a few minutes.

Scenario 03:
I'm using Shiva Rappelz private server client () as a client
Result:
With it I can successfully log in to my account, select the server and log in to my character, but after a short period of time (1-2 minutes) the in-game notification "You have been disconnected from the server" pops up.
And with this client the game takes a very long time to start, logging into the account and selecting a server is also quite long.

Scenario 04:
I'm using Rappelz Revival private server client () as a client
Result:
The result is the same as in Scenario 01 - after entering the data from the account and clicking the "log in" button, nothing happens.

In all cases, my laucnher.bat represents:

start SFrame.exe /auth_ip:127.0.0.1 /auth_port:8841 /locale:ASCII /country:US /commercial_shop /cash /help_url_w:620 /help_url_h:633

... but if I try to use RappelzCmdLaucnher () and the (official?) 8.1 client downloaded from this link (), the game does not start with error

err code[380]:Game initialization error or you have the old game guard file .<BR>Please re-install the Game Guard set up file and the try again.

Can you please tell me what I can do in this case? Where can I get a suitable SFrame for version 8.1? Or maybe this problem can be solved in some other way? Why does the Rappelz Vanilla 8.1 private server have their SFrame working correctly, but when I try to use it, nothing happens after entering data on the login screen and clicking "log in"? Is there some kind of protection in there?

Thanks.

Hello friends, I am trying to do something by searching the forum pages as much as I can without asking questions. But I am having a hard time with something and I need your help.
My question is: I am trying to make a clint with multi-language support, but I could not set up my own language, Turkish, properly. I am tired of looking at other people's servers. Can you please help?

1. How can I make my own server in Turkish (and a proper language).

Done: (I copied the [RAPPELZ_CN] series in the localeinfo.ini file and changed it to [RAPPELZ_TR], and the texts were corrected.)

2. How can I make a clint with multi-language support (TR, EN, DE).

Almost Done: I can set the problem in separate files for each language. but the main issue is that I still can't figure out how to do it in a single file via the launcher.


3.Hello friends, I have an interesting problem.

When I call a Loot pet(Deco new or old), the game crashes. More precisely, CaptainHerlockServer closes and throws me out of the game.

 Spoiler

Program Name : Arcadia
EXE : C:\Users\xxx\Desktop\SERVER\Game_bin\CaptainHerloc kServer.exe
User : xxx
Computer :xxx

Program :
Exception : C000000D (An invalid parameter was passed to a service or function.
)
Fault Address: 00007FF6FE98668C 01:0037568C
Mem Usage : 2443628KB / 2391236KB

I tried everything, including completely uninstalling and reinstalling everything, but my problem did not go away. As far as I understand, the problem is related to the codes.

I would be very happy if you could give me some tips.

 Spoiler

As far as I understand, in order to fix this problem, I need to add dbo.smp_change_pet_name to the DB. Can anyone help me? I think it might be related to some errors that occurred while recovering from Telecaster.

Done: I re-downloaded the telecaster file from a different source and it was fixed.




I thank all the friends who did not help, I will write it myself and solve it myself.
