Uhhwhich results in a scenario where you need to modify my server's database files to bypass itif you're not aware, ragnarok's database allows full control of all skill cooldowns, cast times, walk delays, and skill delays and there is nothing you, the player, can do about itbasically every server you've ever seen never gave a f. about your exploits to begin withalthough at the same time i am aware of bragi hacks and other hacks of the sort, which makes me wonder how they are doneno grf is just 1 frame animations, you basically appear as always standing still. LOLWhy should I want to have access to your server if a lot of the named features working client sided? The only thing you effectively can block is freewalk and the range hack via hold.And lol again!1 frame animations arent working. The act files requires a few fixed sprites on every position.

Else it would crash. Its not a simple mob sprite (ofc you could replace it with those but thats not that basic point). And this frame cutting process is named as nodelay and not nogrf. You dont even know the term of something you want to block. Well played.And the way you want to block it shows me exactly that you dont have any clue what are talking about. Even with CRC checks you cant be invulnerable to bots and other things.Even harmony has been bypassed again and the developer is on a completely different level as a worm like you.Know your stuff and try harder then. Hmm, well, what is exactly the word isn't that important, I see where you are coming from but I doubt that would work.Let's pressume it is not even an issue because the server does want to provide gameplay as is possible, based on those 3thparty programs.I guess most players don't know how to tweak their client as exii does and with no doubt you should be able to do it at the same level also.For players as exii it will be the ultimate challenge, for others it could be more frustrating then pushing buttons.If they bring it server-side it could attract more players.

RCX doesn't ruin the game at all. It's incredibly useful and enables a lot of high tier play that we see on private servers - in particular in WoE.Modified GRFs is clearly a subjective problem. If you're simply reducing your lag so you can play properly, then how can anyone says this 'ruins the game'?

If the state of the graphics are such that without grf mods you can't play, then it can only be improving the game for that player.GRFs which allow one to target MvPs easier and things like this are a necessary thing these days too. Sure, it takes an element of learned skill (knowing how to target these mobs easily) out of the game, but arguably it also levels the playing field more between experienced players and less experienced players - can you really be that proud of yourself for winning an MvP just because you know where to click and someone else simply hasn't figured it out yet? That seems quite shallow.So really, it depends what you mean by 'ruins the game'. Personally, I think anything short of modifying graphics in order to effect fundamental mechanics (such as nodelay.) probably has a net positive effect on RO on private servers. It should be embraced more than shunned, since otherwise people such as Exii and myself, and all of our peers, will simply have an edge over people who do not know how to modify these things themselves.I have never heard this 'nogrf' nonsense Blinzer is talking about - what he describes is 'nodelay'.

I've done my fair share of grf modding and know a bit about rA functionality, and I'm with Exii that this guy doesn't really know what he's talking about.

No?The more you invest time in this topic the more you will realize how complicated a good protection is to develop regarding all possible aspects for a bypass.Also why should I give a single f. about to block things which Im partly using? Nodelay isnt a big deal which I need at the end of 2014 but nodelay is just the start and at the same time the end of a list for hacks which I personally would agree to block.But you just would try to block everything if you somebody would give you the possibility and this is biting with professional gameplay.

Blocking PotNDs /effect feature would be the most stupid idea ever; fe.Thats exactly why trash pinoy admins try to block a lot of feaures because they dont know a s. about what theyre doing. Doesnt matter if its a useful feature the client imedietly officially needed or just a hack to achiev some unfair benefit. Just block, block, block, block like a brainless zombie. And thats one of a couple of things why Im extreme racist against the average pinoy.I have a better idea for you:Instead of yelling out that you can block nodelay in 10mins without any background knowledge and get slaped from all sides for this you spend some time with this whole topic and face why harmony took years for it.How about that?

Both things are possible.

Woonro has this feature if I remember right.On client side its working just by executing @hold in the chat or alt shortcuts.The character stucks and isnt able to move anymore. You have to use @hold again.This method isnt working as the usal hold feature but its a fair deal.The basic method is possible with through 2 programs/files. You can move freely but when you cast a spell out of your range you dont run until you are able to perform. The char is just rooted.This prevents tons of click bugs. If you play frontline and perform a something on the 1st line of the enemy guild you may experience that your char wants to run to its target.The reason is the massive clickspam of your mouse which sometimes miss to use a skill and just click on the map which means you to this point and the target sometimes trying to avoid by retreat 1-2 cells back which means your char will move 1-2 cells forward.

Sounds like a messed up server feature when you say @hold. If it happens with potND too then I guess I haven't played enough servers xdI was mainly asking because I thought about hosting a server before, although I don't think it's worth the trouble with this community. But since it's related to the topic, if I ever did make a server I would not try to block anything, except titan grf if possible. Instead, I would just aim to make client hacks less relevant. For nodelay, just implement a hard skill delay which can be canceled by movement, flinch animation or true sight, etc., @hold only for single target skills, freewalk enabled by default, etc. During woe, there should be no effects except Dispel and maybe Tarot, so people can just play normally with /effects on.

Chessmaster 10th edition cd36. And ofcourse for maya p hack, the answer seems to be not to send any information about hidden players to other clients.I haven't really looked into it myself, but I don't understand why some server owners shy away from a little source editing.
