I think you misunderstood the whole thing. The issue isn't just game brightness. The issue is that brightness is increased across whole OS UI, as long as client is running. I do not prefer decreasing client brightness, so that does not help.

Is there any way to get rid of screen brightness issue when L2 client is minimized? I know there is a way to fix this using an external program, but what about client editing?

This is a simple yet nice-looking gatekeeper that was already shared by its original author Cronia/LamprosJr in this forum for acis Interlude. I adapted it to my own project and already shared it with my people. It can also be adapted in Frozen-like projects. My work: - Converted XML data to sql. Data is stored in custom tables. - Added quotes to all HTML attribute values. - Added missing font closing tags. In addition to Interlude, C4 HTML window renders unclosed tags as plain text. - Calculated and improved width on certain elements. - Removed useless align and colspan attributes. - Fixed widths that were greater than 300. - Title has become clickable and redirects to main page. - Changed button backgrounds to "down" instead of "hover". - Removed C5-IL teleports. - Tested all teleports one by one. They are fully functional. Link 1 Link 2 I hope you find it useful. *EDITED: Corrected wrong query in custom_npc file.

Dear members, Project has made a lot of progress since Revision 599 of 2018 which was thought to be the final version, and it hasn't been so active since 2015. Now, it's time that I personally halt my activities for the next few months since lots of things are going on and I have to put certain priorities. It's out of the question that troubleshooting is still a priority and fatal bug reports will be dealt with. We all put a lot of effort and I think we should all take some summer rest for start. I want to thank you all for your efforts, and for being a part of this up until now. :) Also, it would please me if I saw any new server projects sprout. I hope I do. Either way, I have also been suggested for a mid rate server, but I haven't given a final answer yet. I hope you enjoy the rest of summer relaxing, like I'll do and we'll be in contact again in the future. *Previous post updated. Current commit is 657. Best regards, DnR

Actually, L2J has been using both as integers until Freya (in the case of getRunSpeed, it's probably because packets write speed stats as integers and it seemed an easy solution to them). Here is the method he's probably using. /** * Return the RunSpeed (base+modifier) of the L2Character in function of the Armour Expertise Penalty. */ public int getRunSpeed() { if (_activeChar == null) { return 1; } // err we should be adding TO the persons run speed // not making it a constant double baseRunSpd = _activeChar.getTemplate().baseRunSpd; if (baseRunSpd == 0) { return 0; } return (int) Math.round(calcStat(Stats.RUN_SPEED, baseRunSpd, null, null)); } They even preferred rounding value and casting it to int instead of returning it as it is.

You seem to have zero knowledge regarding Python OOP, so I suggest you take a small look here: https://www.w3schools.com/python/python_classes.asp For start, try calling your new method using 'self' reference which is almost equivalent to Java's 'this' reference. Also, there must be an extra first parameter that refers to current object and exists solely to give you access to it. In most cases, developers name it self. So, your method parameters should look like this: def testas(self, player): and you should call it like this: self.test(player) *Note: Do not use semicolons in Python. I hope you find these tips helpful.

I see, that makes a lot of sense now. I also checked package origins and confirmed it's acis but I noticed that public source build file is set to use Java 8 so I think there is also the question of whether he is using your public or premium source?! Here is the repository I took a look at: https://xp-dev.com/svn/aCis_public/ Regardless, it's him who should post more details about his server origin. About your points regarding JDK 11, this really sounds interesting since GC has always been a pain for developers until now. Thanks a lot for your suggestion.

What is your definition of trying? If by any chance you've kept all those versions installed, I doubt you even know which version your server is run with. After doing a bit of search regarding error tips, I realized you are more likely using acis (public sources at least), so yes it must be Java 8 compatible. I did not get any spare time to try JDK 11 or even read docs, so thanks a lot for correcting me on this. However, even though you seem informed, It seems really strange to me that it still didn't cross your mind at first, since this is one of the most common error cases of JDK 8 -> 9 incompatibility in the past 2 years and I believe it's worth checking. @AominePride If you have not yet, please perform a clean installation of JRE 8 and JDK 8. Secondly, if you still have more versions installed, make sure your server is running using the proper version. In worse case, regarding suggestions above, you could also try and run an out-of-the-box compiled version to check whether it's a compilation issue or not. Good luck.

Hello AominePride. Your error definitely indicates that your default Java environment version for running this server is 9 or newer. This means a NoSuchMethodError occurs because the server you are trying to run is compatible with (hopefully) Java 8 or an earlier version. In newer versions of Java (9+), ByteBuffer class has no longer access to clear() method, resulting in the error mentioned above. If you really want to run this server, you should either install Java 8 or do some dirty work and possibly add Buffer class casts to all ByteBuffer objects that try to call clear() method. Good luck.

For example, by unsetting GM status, character will be affected by speed cap so character info packets must be sent. Revision 648 Admin command rights system rework. All access level checks have been removed from all admin command handlers. Using old command-privileges file to apply minimum access level to each command. This file has been renamed to AdminCommandRights.properties. Commands that have no access level set in that file will use MasterAccessLevel as default level. Replaced default access level property with MasterAccessLevel. When everyone has admin rights in server, their access level will be set to MasterAccessLevel upon login. AdminNameColor will apply to characters whose access level is greater or equal to MasterAccessLevel. GMNameColor will apply to characters whose access level is greater than 0. Old system was written in such a way that server owners should only meddle with access levels of >= 100 for admins and >= 75 for GMs. Also, EveryoneHasAdminRights property was setting character access level to 200. The concept of this new system is to get rid of old bad-written command-rights system and let admins set access levels the way they want. - Added few more checks for GM Transaction access. - Corrected GMNameColor to yellow, just as it's described in comments. - Deleted few unused conditions. - Refactoring configuration files. Revision 649 - Conditions will now gain access to funcOwner object. This way, more advanced conditions can be created. - Using new "minEnchantLevel" condition for Dual Swords stats. Instead of finding item by id, then checking slot, and enchant level, admins can simply set enchant level. This condition works for all enchantable-equippable items. Revision 650 - Getting rid of Lisvus_GameServer data folder by merging it with the one in Lisvus_DataPack. Revision 651 - Minor improvements regarding Mercenary Tickets. Revision 652 - Improved AdminSkill handler. - Improved removeAllSkills method. - Added admin remove all skills button to admin skill panel. Thanks confejulian. - Fixed transaction issues. Thanks SCRASH0. Revision 653 - Removed admin_gm command due to few visible flaws and hardcoded checks. Admins can always add this command as custom to their servers. - Fixed wrong message when a GM tried to use a command that does not exist. - Converted AdminCommandRights.properties to XML. - Minor improvements in loading servername.xml. - Improved GM transaction checks. Revision 654 - Cleanup and code improvements. - Deleted AllyInfo server packet since it's been outdated since C3. Everything is handled properly by RequestAllyInfo client packet. - Added message for admin_polymorph command upon usage. - Fixed castle circlets removal system. Old system was deleting all clan members circlets upon one member's dismissal. Also, circlets would not be deleted if dismissed member was offline. - Added a missing value in UserInfo and GMViewCharacterInfo packets. Revision 655 - Removed AltGameSkillLearn configuration since it was exploitable. - Removed SkillAbnormalStatus enums since this was an ugly way to take care of things. - Weapon skills on cast will ignore ss/bss without the use of SkillAbnormalStatus enum. - Added boolean isFirstCritical to all SkillHandlers and L2Skill child classes. Critical rate for first target will always be calculated before animation. - Some work on improving skill handlers. - Fixed players not retrieving noblesse skills during login. Thanks SCRASH0. - Fixed noblesse status change sending UserInfo packet before noblesse flag updated. - Added critical rate support for CHARGEDMG skills. Revision 656 - Improved Beast Shot handlers. - Added few missing System Messages. - Discharge pet shots when entering olympiad. Revision 657 - Fixed Mercenary Posting Tickets being dropped anywhere. Thanks DanielaCZ for an old related report. - Mercenary Posting Tickets won't drop upon death. - Removed 2 unused columns from etcitem table. Best regards, DnR

Thanks a lot! :) It's a bit more than 7 years actually. In early 2011, i privately begun to adapt patches and fixes to project (this has never been the poor version of L2j C4) and in summer of 2011 I uploaded my work as revision 1 of the project I manage today.

Revision 614 Hello guys. From now on, project will use L2J latest geoengine as it was adapted in rev614. Now, few details about this. - Merged jars with core. Now, anyone can experiment with geo engine. - Geodata is active by default, meaning that if server has geo files then geodata will work. Instead of using 3 options for Geodata, admins will now use 3 options for pathfinding. - Gameserver maximum memory was increased for proper startup, if server has geodata files. - GeoDriver.properties was renamed to Geodata.properties. - Improved map dimensions calculation in L2World. - Regarding AI, adding several geodata checks for monsters casting skills. - Removed an AI check increasing the probability for monsters that cast skills to stuck in walls. Tests were done in necropolis. Thanks DanielaCZ for pointing out. - Fixed 2 issues in login server. Also, increased login maximum memory limit. Unfortunately, I noticed that there might still be cases that monsters stuck in wall corners if pathfinding is enabled. Tests were done with L2JGeo Premium Geodata. Thank you all for your support and good luck. DnR

Revision 613 Project GNU license was updated from version 2 to version 3. This revision does not include any bug fixes. BR, DnR

Revision 612 - AIO/NPC Buffers system was reworked. Let's get into more details about this. - Removed useless columns from npc_buffer table. - Added aio_buffer table for AIO Buffers. - Added //setaio command to turn a player into an AIO Buffer (e.g. //setaio 1 sets AIO status while //setaio 0 removes AIO status). - Added //reload support for AIO/NPC buffs. - Added configuration for setting name color to AIO Buffers. - AIO Buffers can cast dances without dual swords. - AIO Buffers cannot participate in Grand Olympiad Games or TvT Event. - AIO Buffers cannot add or change subclass. - AIO Buffers buffs are set in aio_buffer table, where their duration and level can also be configured. - Duration set in both tables will only affect buffs given by AIO Buffers and NPC Buffers respectively. - Duration set to 0 means that buff keeps its original duration. - This method will let buffs keep their original duration when casted by common players. This way, admins benefit in such a way that players cannot create alternative characters to gain buffs. Also, original duration means balance for classes in Olympiad games and team events. - Default duration is set to 1 hour for npc_buffer buffs and 2 hours for aio_buffer buffs. Also, admins are always allowed to use 'EnableModifySkillDuration' setting instead. Couple of other additions. - Added configuration for keeping buffs on subclass change. - Fixed a reuse delay bug that caused certain skills cooltime not to be stored. - Added FallenOrcShaman AI. Thanks Karakan. - Corrected Benediction skill power. - Added configuration for buff slots client patch. - Converted System.out.println messages into logs. - Changed access for couple of loggers. - Minor cleanup in certain classes. Thank you all for your support and have fun. Best regards, DnR

Revision 610-611 Hello people. This commit contains Login Server rework along with few minor additions. - Updated login server to make full use of MMOCore and its NIO Selector. This is the first public C4 project that made L2J modern MMOCore operate with it. - Cleanup of GameServerThread and took care of some duplicate values, since they were already kept into GameServerInfo instances. - Added corrected GNU licences to certain classes. - Column rename fixes for custom tables. Thanks SCRASH0. For live servers, there are few SQL fields and the hexid file that need to be updated. For taking care of SQL changes: ALTER TABLE `accounts` CHANGE `lastServer` `last_server` INT(4) NULL DEFAULT '1'; ALTER TABLE `accounts` CHANGE `lastIP` `last_ip` VARCHAR(20) CHARACTER SET latin1 COLLATE latin1_swedish_ci NULL DEFAULT NULL; ALTER TABLE `accounts` CHANGE `lastactive` `last_active` DECIMAL(20,0) NULL DEFAULT NULL; Hexid example: #the hexID to auth into login #Sat May 25 18:33:54 EEST 2019 HexID=<your hexid> +ServerID=<your server id> Thanks a lot for your support and have fun. Best regards, DnR

@DenArt Designs I believe I owe an apology. Being under a lot of stress these days, i might have misinterpreted your thoughts making me feel offended, and now I feel embarassed about this. I'm also under a lot of stress just by being the project manager and always try to defend project community's work and my work. Apart from developing, my role is to also listen as much as possible, which there are times that like many i do not, due to my human ego, but i'm doing my best. Just as I pointed out in my earlier post, i'm going to take some of your advice and move forward. I apologize for the inconvenience, and thank you for caring about this project. Best regards, DnR

I know very well what it was, but you seem to fail to understand. Not only was it overreacting, but it offended project's philosophy at the same time. I already provided you with details regarding libraries such as mysql not being up-to-date and had a good explanation for it, but i'm really wondering if you ever got past the second line while reading. My possible answer? There is no other valid answer? I don't like people who make assumptions based simply on their own thoughts. You have to realize this is the project's philosophy. I declared that project won't translate quests from python to Java, long ago. It might do so in a very distant future if it's still alive, that's all i have to say. However, AIs (most of them) are written in java and people are allowed to develop their scripts using any engine. I also declared many other things that strangers who never followed project before, would not be familiar with. That's not making sense, at all. I never had such major issues while updating. Not even with removing Javolution, since python scripts use native python map and list. Datapack required updating merely about 5 scripts. Even though your first post was as senseless as suggesting to rewrite project in C++, it was really understandable, but on the other hand you haven't got a damn clue about project's 8-year history, my lack of activity and announcements, and yet you treated, willingly or not, me and all those people who worked hard in these past years as stupid. So on my side, i treated you and your first post as clueless, as gently as possible. I'm pretty surprised you didn't assume that using your psychic powers, though. Before i say anything? Remember? Well, tbh your attitude gives me the chills. Script engine is still working pretty well even after the removal of Javolution. Also, I believe i have the right to choose what to update and what to not according to what i think it's the best for my project. Project also focuses on game stability which you didn't say a thing about, and i really don't have enough time to waste at reworking things that are still of use. Please assume that my time is really limited, because it is. C4 branch required even more work due to its horrible mess, than few later chronicles, despite having less features. I honestly took your suggestion of updating libraries into account because it's common sense to do so. About removing, it's not going to happen. I would also be grateful if you respected project's philosophy more, and realized that not everyone wants to follow the examples of aCis project. Once more, thanks a lot for your suggestions and good luck. DnR

Hello, thanks a lot for posting your opinion about project structure. Before i start, let me point out that I believe you are overreacting here. JavaScript and BeanShell engines are being kept for legacy purposes, just like l2j did for dozens of years, and for the time being i'd rather they stayed there, since they don't cause any harm. Ofc, I also doubt admins will create scripts using these engines. They have enough trouble doing "the easy part". Jython engine is used for quest scripts. Java engine is also available and is used for AI scripts. Trove is a really useful library but not much use has been made of it. In that case, i'm probably gonna agree with you and remove it from project. JDBC libraries need to update to their current versions. That is definitely because project wasn't really active these past few years. MMOCore is going to be merged with source soon, it's been in the plan for a long time but there have been obstacles, far more important than the amount of libraries ^^. Also, work regarding geodata is going to be done in the future. After all, L2J_GeoAbstraction was adapted from Freya, which removed it a while later, long ago. I hope i answered your questions. Thanks for suggesting.

Rev601 I'm here with revision 601 to announce the removal of Javolution library.Along with it, memory leaks and potential nulls were fixed.Couple of bugs, not visible to naked eye, were also fixed in the way.This commit includes cleanup, and it also reduces warnings from 15xx to 2xx.Also:- Javolution TextBuilders were replaced by StringBuilder, combined with StringUtil to increase performance.- Added boolean isHeroItem for hero items.- Fixed para_all command not working. Also, it now affects all characters around and not just players.- Admin shutdown page changed so that it's displayed again if admin uses shutdown or restart commands.- Organized GameServer startup operations (Instance Managers and Data Tables were loaded in a messed order).This might improve startup a little bit.This update increases free memory to almost up to 100MB.Best regards,DnR
