[Tutorial] Shaiya Updater

SrShaden · 01/17/2011, 22:09

Ok Friends, for all the help I got around here, its time for me to make my Shaiya Updater Tutorial... I will be very specific and give a lot of example. Bottom line this will be a long tutorial Good Luck.

Lets begin with what you need to successfully make your updater work.

1. You will need a working Website, I used webs.com to do this
2. You will need 3 software to make your Update Files
|-

|- and Google SHAIYA_MAKE_v0-1.zip cause I don't think its available here
anyways its a combiner.
|- And last you need a File Manager I use 7-Zip to do this.

Alright that's it for the software, now we need to create 2 .ini files.

First one we will make is the UpdateVersion.ini...
Start by opening notepad and write this in it.

Quote:

[Version]
CheckVersion=3
UpdaterVersion=18
PatchFileVersion=33

Ok so read this carefully now...

CheckVersion & UpdaterVersion STAYS THE SAME
As for PatchFileVersion=33 <- To know what to put here follow these steps. Open Shaiya Game Folder for example mine is C:\AeriaGames\Shaiya\
Alright now Open Version.ini Now mine says CurrentVersion=32... therefor my PatchFileVersion=33
So its CurrentVersion + 1... Example: if yours is CurrentVersion=1 then PatchFileVersion=2... Got it? Good.

Save it as UpdateVersion.ini

Now for the CONFIG.ini, Open Notepad and copy this:

Save this as: CONFIG.ini

Alright now you got the software, the files, now to edit the Updater using a Hex Editor so Open your Updater with Hex editor and Find http://

You can do Ctrl + F to open the find window

This Image highlights the 3 http:// That will need modification

So the first one is:

Code:

http://shaiya.aeriagames.com/sygame/notice..êµ´ë¦¼ì²´...

Here's what you put in:

Code:

http://yourwebsite.com.......................êµ´ë¦¼ì²´...

Just in case I need to specify yourwebsite.com " Put Your Website "
So if your website is

Code:

http://SrShaden.webs.com

well you put that instead.
As for the dots after .com.......... Don't forget to replace the "2E" on the Left side to "00" this goes for every dots that are not part of your website so I hope you get this, for every dots you use to fill it should be Null "00"

So here's a snapshot after modifying the first http://

2. The next http:// witch is the next line in your editor is:

Code:

open....http://login.aeriagames.com/index.php?q=user/register...

Here's what you put in:

Code:

open....http://yourwebsite.com..................................

(Fill with Nulls "00" up to the next http:// )
So here's what it should look like with the 2 fisrt http:// modified:

As you can see there is a lot of dots to fill to overwrite the old website so im showing you how to make them NULL, when you put a "dot" it creates the code "2E" on the left... but when you use "dots" to overwrite it should be "00" Example: if you put:
"website.com" the dot should be "2E"
but after that its "website.com........." so the dots after "com" are NULL therefor should be replaced with "00"
So you select all the Null dots, right-click it and select "Fill Selection"
Like the snapshot above then click "ok"

3.

Code:

http://shaiya.aeriagames.com/...

Code:

http://yourwebsite.com/..........

"DON'T forget the end /"
So the first 3 http: modification looks like this:

Now do Ctrl + F and find: TEST_IP witch is a few dozen lines below.

4. TEST_IP.shaiya.patch.aeriagames.com..\CONFIG.ini.. .. <- Was
TEST_IP.yourwebsite.com...................\CONFIG. ini... <- Change to
Like This:

Now Save it. Now go to yourwebsite.com and Upload the file CONFIG.ini with the rest of you website then create a new folder named Shaiya: In this folder you will upload your UpdateVersion.ini, And also in your Shaiya folder you will create a folder there named patch: In this folder you will upload your .patch file, In my case, ps0033.patch cause my PatchFileVersion is 33.

Ok so now your files and folder are created and uploaded to your website, except your psxxxx.patch... Alright then, lets make one together.

For this example I will modify the random_loading images and my Logo.
1.Make sure the files you are patching are the same name as those you want to modify...Example My logo was Logo.gif... but the one I want to change is named sonovlogo.bmp so rename yours to the same as original.

Ok now that thats cleared up you can open Shaiya Make V 0-1, there are 2 folders, files & data...open data folder... YOU NEED to put the same path also. Example, the files I am changing are in interface, so I create a Folder named interface and put my files there.

If you were to modify cash.sdata, you would just put it there, no folders. And so on... Put them in the same location as the original ones.

Alright, so now you Run Shaiya_Make.exe....... Done. Now open Files.. O.O
two files are created OMG its not update.sah or update.saf, its named data.sah and data.saf..... Whats your point? Change them...

data.sah to update.sah & data.saf to update.saf

Ok, now you got those update files everyones talks about. Now what?
Select both of them and right-click \ Add To Achives....
7zip opens up and MAKE SURE YOU SAVE AS .ZIP and not 7z...
Select the option Archive Format = zip
Select Deflate in compression method
select Add and Replace files
Press ok, now you have created the file.zip with your 2 other files.
name it (in my case) ps0033.patch if your CurrentVersion was 1 then you save it with the name ps0002.patch, before you click OK make sure the Update Mode is "Add and replace", now press ok. It will create ps0033.patch in the same folder as your update.sah/saf.

Go to your website and upload it in your patch folder. Now save your website for the changes and there you go ! Oh yea, make sure your updater is named Update.exe and your game is Game.exe

Congratulations !

[GM]Recover · 01/18/2011, 13:19

SrShaden · 01/18/2011, 14:36

# Added Snapshots

ProfNerwosol · 01/18/2011, 17:23

Don't forget the compression method should be DEFLATE. Otherwise you'll get C++ Runtime Error.

SrShaden · 01/18/2011, 17:42

Explain because i did it just like that and didnt get an error, If you could explain what you mean plz so we can prevent this from happening to others

RebeccaBlack · 01/19/2011, 01:17

Not sure what DEFLATE compression method is, but this is how I always do it. (When I'm not using LPH's Data File Tool to make patches)

[GM]Recover · 01/20/2011, 04:39

i made it on webs but it wont update an ideas but my updater does not have the test_ip thiinghy

SrShaden · 01/20/2011, 05:45

If you didnt modify the TEST_IP thats why it wont work, after the last IP scroll down slowly its not that far down... and if you really want i can give you a hand with team viewer or something, I used the latest Updater of the OS, they all have it from EP3 to EP5

[GM]Recover · 01/20/2011, 05:56

can u just post ur updater.exe
and i will try again

Bаne · 01/21/2011, 00:55

many thanks as people were having troubles with it..
