I am going to begin working on some C5 packet fixes, since Nevyn and I already found out how to fix the protocol revision and connect with a C5 client. I know there is packet errors at the log in screen. Once those are fixed, we'll have to fix all the rest. Anyone who can post any information about *changed* packet structures (like 'cddd' to 'cdddS' for example) and packet headers (if the packet header is different, TELL ME!) would be helping a lot. Also, bringing me changed packets from C4->C5 using L2J revisions from before and after is ok too. I will be using some L2J changes to help me out probably as I go through this process. I hope to see this thread be productive. Protocol Revision and How to Change it: The L2Server does String to Int conversion on the numeric part of that ASCII string. Change 656 to 693 and you will change the Protocol Revision. Tested with a C5 client already. Nevyn made a link, he can post it here...I'm too lazy :P Original Source: http://www.postpacific.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5895

This is my very first bigger share, so be patient please, I’m not so skilled like others are :) This is complete tutorial how to install PetitionD server and how to configure it. The server is from NCSoft, I haven’t changed anything. The database is my own work, because standard database schema is for old petition server, which doesn’t work with C4 retail. So I had to make totally different database schema, compatible with this client. So let’s start with database: PART I – DATABASE Everything is tested on MS SQL server 2005, I was too lazy to looking for 2000 and installing it. 1. Create empty database for petition (in my examples it is call called ‘petition’) http://aralyon.ratafak.net/peti/1a.jpg http://aralyon.ratafak.net/peti/1b.jpg 2. Think out connection string – it’s string containing all information about connecting to database (Petition server DOESN’T use DSN like other parts of L2 server) There are 2 ways how to connect a) Windows authentication You authenticate to mssql with your windows username and password - the connection string is SERVER=[i](Server name)[/i];DATABASE=[i](Database name)[/i];Integrated security=true EXAMPLE: SERVER=.;DATABASE=petition;Integrated security=true b) Classic authetification using SQL login (recommended) and password SERVER=[i](Server name)[/i];DATABASE=[i](Database name)[/i];UID=[i]User name[/i];PWD=[i]Password[/i] EXAMPLE: SERVER=hades;DATABASE=petidb;UID=sysdev;PWD=tltmxparoqkftlf1234! 3. Open db_schema\petition_schema.sql in MSSQL Management studio (or Query Analyzer in MSSQL2000) 4. Write connection string to INSERT INTO statement, as shown below: http://aralyon.ratafak.net/peti/1c.jpg 5. Set current database to your petition database in toolbar http://aralyon.ratafak.net/peti/1d.jpg 6. Execute it, it should return no error PART II – SERVER 1) Choose mode - you can use it like service (originally) or (with my loader) like console program. 2) Installing service - skip if you want to use it like console program Use InstallUtil from .NET installation directory (I think that it is explained somewhere in other topic. Syntax is: InstallUtil.exe c:\yourL2server\PetitionD\PetitionD.exe Some informations about it - http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/50614e95.aspx 3) Make encrypted connection string: 1) Write your connection string from step 1.2 to a text file (e.g. connstr.txt) 2) Encrypt it with DES.exe many thanks to Digital - write name of the text file with connection string to field "File to encrypt" and then click on "Encrypt" button. It should show you a "Done" message and create .enc file (e.g. connstr.txt.enc) http://aralyon.ratafak.net/peti/2a.jpg 3) it contains encrypted connection string. 4) Edit PetitionD.exe.config (for service version) or PetitionConsole.exe.config (for console version). Configuration options are in format <add key="Name" value="Value"></add> Description of configuration file: GmServicePort - port for connecting from GM client WorldServicePort - port for connection from gameserver, it must be the same as [PetitionD] - port in l2server.ini NoticeServicePort - I don't know yet, I'll have a look later AuthIp - Ip address of AuthD (It needs auth to authenticate GM client) AuthPort - admin port of AuthD AuthConnCount - size of connection pool LogDirectory - directory to store log files EnableQuota, MaxQuota - Quote about number of petitions from one player, leave it off, because it isn't done yet RunMode - can be "test" or "normal", it is highly recommended to set it on "normal" DumpPacket - enables dumping packets to log file (I recommend to disable, it is for debugging purposes only) ServerStatusRefreshInterval - ??? DatabaseConnString - encrypted connection string - you MUST change it to corrent values, otherwise it doesnt work! DatabaseConnName - leave it, it is name of the connection string in NCDBA7 DatabaseConnCount,DatabaseConnTimeout - leave it MaxActivePetition - maximum number of petitions MinimumGmClientBuildNumber - minimum version of GM client EnableGmStatusDump - ??? EnableAssignment - ??? MaxAssignmentPerGm - ??? EnableOnlineCheck - ??? So it is everyting, now petition server is configured. you can start console version with PetitionConsole.exe and service version in service manager in control panel. It is not still fully tested, but I hope there is no more bugs. If you find anything, please write it to this topic or send me icq or msn message There is one big problem related to it - It looks like external gm client is needed, because the only method which can get petition into state 3 (petition after submitting is in state 2) is called from gm client listener handler (=invoked by gm client). But gm client supplied with server doesnt work, probably it is intended to use with old petitionD. I wrote one, it is here - http://www.postpacific.com/forums/showthread.php?p=66313. GMs can't do nearly anything with submitted petition with L2 client, you have to use GM client. The only builder command related to petition (which I know what it si doing is //force_peti <charname> <petition content> which forces player to submit a petition. Security notice - for security reasons restrict database access for petition server, there might be security issues, it is unlikely,but it is possible. Enjoy it :) Download: http://aralyon.ratafak.net/peti/PetitionD.rar - password: postpacifik - it includes all files and tools described in this topic GM Petition client: forum thread - http://www.postpacific.com/forums/showthread.php?p=66313 direct download - http://aralyon.ratafak.net/peti/gmclient.rar Do you have problems with submitting petitions with UnexpectedCategory error?

C5 skill updates... Most have MP cost changes, along with a few other changes to the reuse times, power, duration, ranges... The new MP usage should be about 99% correct, but the MP enchant reductions might be off by 1 or 2 MP. Average player wouldnt even notice it. Some skill aquires will also need changing.

Yeah, let's skip the formalities. We created these 10 weapons for our new area in Vendetta. Mordor: Cirith Ungol. Screenshots and everything else needed for you to add this in your server follow below. Client-side: \system - Itemname-e.dat - weapongrp.dat \systextures - mordorweapons.utx - mordoricon.utx Server-side: - itemdata.txt ------------////---------////---------------- Client-side: --> Decoded itemname-e.dat <-- --> Decoded weapongrp.dat <-- Client-side (Textures): --> Textures pack <-- Server-side: --> Itemdata.txt <-- This is it. All you'll have to do server-side is add the itemdata.txt lines in your skilldata.txt/itemdata.txt files. And client-side what you'll have to do is grab the lines of the decoded weapongrp.dat and itemname-e.dat, decode your weapongrp.dat/itemname-e.dat and put the lines in there. To decode/encode client-side files you'll need a tool. A great one to do this would be Remo-Pack, which by the way can be found HERE. And in case you wonder how these weapons look like... Check these screens out. Lineage ][ Vendetta Team. Weapons Design (Icons, textures, etc): - Ochrejelly --> http://ochrejelly.deviantart.com - RavenSpirit --> http://liiga.deviantart.com Weapons Coding: - PyroMaker --> http://www.ins-vendetta.com - http://www.pinatube.com Hope you enjoy it, and remember... If you're going to use these weapons, don't forget to give proper credits to the authors! Also, if you like the weapons please post here, do not just leech and go away. In the future I might share these weapons the way they are in Vendetta... Not quite sure though. But here's the idea, you might want to use it on your server aswell... Basically since these weapons are just like epic weapons, same patk/matk/etc you could remove the SA after +4 off 'em and add an SA on critical, that debuffs the enemy... I've created custom SA's for each weapons, like for example the dagger drains HP, the bow poisons, the sword increases reuse delay and so on. It's not hard to do this, so I'm going to let this up to you. Work never killed anyone. :P If you want more examples about how this idea of mine works, read the descriptions of these weapons on the screenshots: VENDETTA MORDOR WEAPONS SCREENSHOTS Best regards, PyroMaker, and Lineage ][ Vendetta Team. irc.deltaanime.net #l2vendetta
