(topic was posted already in general section but I updated it and posted it in the right section, the old topic is locked)

What is R2Plays?

 

R2Plays is an utility that captures and does playback of Lineage II replays. It includes major features that I feel the official replay system is missing, namely the display of the full user interface, player names and crests, etc.

It has to capture its own replays because the replays that are generated by the official replay system omit key information for playback with the full UI.

R2Plays is aimed at movie makers to allow them to reenact events and record different camera angles and such. Someone with a weaker computer may record a replay and send it over to someone with a better computer to render a movie at higher quality, for example.

It is also aimed at everybody else as replays can also be shared directly, the recorded replays having file sizes several times smaller than the same length rendered movie.

 

What's new in R2Plays~Gracia?

 

  • Replay files are now even smaller
  • No more custom system folder
  • It's easier to use
  • It's prettier

 

Coming soon:

  • Free Roaming independant of the actual recording character

 

Setting up R2Plays

 

1. Setting up Capture

 

Capture no longer has a window. It only has a tray icon.

 

1-tray.png

 

When started for the first time, capture will ask that you set the options.

 

2-captureoptions.png

 

You may select the right device in the list or let R2Plays determine which one is the right interface by pressing the Guess button.

 

The next step is to select your server~

 

It is now time to set the Stop Recording Key. Simply press the Change button and press the desired key. This key only stops recording. In order to start recording a new replay, the ingame Replay button is used. A key will work even if it shows no name in the box.

 

Auto Delete Crests should always be on. This causes Capture to delete L2's crest cache so the game requests all the crests. This way, all the crests will be included in the recorded replay. Click the Browse button to select the path to your Crest.utx file, which is located in <Lineage II>\systextures\crest.utx

 

The last group of options is for event notifications. If Display a Message is enabled, the tray icon will show a popup describing the various events (New Connection, Start Recording, Stop Recording). The two following options are for sound notifications. Select a .wav file to be played when the event occurs.

 

That's all for the Capture options.

 

2. Setting up Playback

 

2.1 The Loopback Adapter

 

Installing THE Loopback Adapter

 

Windows XP

 

  • Click Start , and then click Control Panel .
  • If you are in Classic view, click Switch to Category View under Control Panel in the left pane.
  • Double-click Printers and Other Hardware , and then click Next .
  • Under See Also in the left pane, click Add Hardware ,and then click Next .
  • Click Yes, I have already connected the hardware , and then click Next .
  • At the bottom of the list, click Add a new hardware device , and then click Next .
  • Click Install the hardware that I manually select from a list , and then click Next .
  • Click Network adapters , and then click Next .
  • In the Manufacturer box, click Microsoft .
  • In the Network Adapter box, click Microsoft Loopback Adapter , and then click Next .
  • Click Finish .

 

Continue to the Configurating the Loopback Adapter section.

 

Windows Vista

Continue to the Configurating the Loopback Adapter section.

 

Configurating the Loopback Adapter

 

Once the loopback adapter is installed, open the Control Panel, go to Network Connections and locate the newly installed Loopback Adapter. It probably will not have a meaningful name yet, so look in the device description, it should say Microsoft Loopback Adapter or something similar.

 

4-loopback.png

 

Rename it to something meaningful such as Loopback R2Plays by right clicking on it and selecting Rename.

 

Then, right click on the connection again and select Properties. The property window will open

 

Locate Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) in the list

 

5-loopbackproperties.png

 

Double click on it and set the connection options to the following:

 

6-loopbacksettings.png

 

The Loopback Adapter setup is complete.

 

Once that is done, start Playback and configure it so it can use the loopback adapter. Right click on the tray icon and go to Network Adapter -> Setup.

 

3-tray.png

 

The Network Adapter option dialog will open

 

loopbacksettings_new.PNG

 

Simply write the name you gave the Loopback Adapter and click Search to verify if the name is correct.

 

Confirm the Network Adapter setup dialog. If you configured it right, the loopback adapter should get enabled automatically from now on. The Playback program enables the adapter when it starts and it disables it when it quits.

 

3. Playback Options

 

Now that the Network Adapter is in enabled state, start L2 normally. Login with any random info (Whatever you write here does not matter, this is only so the client starts the connection).

 

If you get a Password Wrong message, your Loopback Adapter is not enabled or it isn't set properly. Verify you put the right IP and that it is enabled in Network Connections.

 

If you did everything right, you should now be at server list. Select the server, and you should now be at the replay selection screen. Go to the Playback Options page.

 

7-playbackoptions.png

 

Handle Network Adapter: This is whether or not you want Playback to automatically enable the Loopback Adapter when it starts and disable it when it exits. I can't think of any reason why you would possibly want to disable this option, but it's there anyway.

 

Initial Slowdown: This is the time in seconds the playback speed should be slowed when the playback starts. This allows the client to load all the surrounding objects properly so the following playback is smooth. The specified time is in playback seconds(slowed down), not realtime seconds.

 

Do not snow invites: This is whether Party/Trade/etc invitations that the player recieved during recording should show during playback.

 

Do not show windows: This is whether various information windows that the recording player opened (Inventory, Pet status, ...) should display in playback

 

Backup Replays for Edits: When this option is enabled, R2Plays will backup a replay before doing a permanent edit (ie. Removing chat,inventory, ...)

 

Fast Key: The key to press to accelerate the replay playback speed. Click the button and press the desired key.

 

Realtime Key: The key to press to set the playback speed to 1x. Click the button and press the desired key.

      I search job: posting your advertisement(sale,service).

      By negotiator · Posted

      I search job: posting your advertisement(sale,service) on various forums. Contacts for communication. You can find link for download messenger using Google search.   Telegram https://t.me/negotiato_r @negotiato_r   Element(based in United Kingdom) You can find me using this name. @negotiato-r:matrix.org   Session(based in Switzerland) You can find me using this name. 05770c2eda571fc8d10ec0e79e258ec0d9189def2a3e1f2ace1cd29a2174d40723   Delta Chat(based in Germany) You can find me using the link below. https://i.delta.chat/#1ABEBFFCBC1AEE629111387073FFDA1835BB423E&i=6WtJxcgJGcFD3vIpglQfhe5J&s=f2EkRsqxAeFYep9g9s1y1aIf&a=xuozjaudg%40nine.testrun.org&n=negotiator   I ask administrator or moderator not to consider this link an advertisement for messenger.  This is only link that people can use to contact me.  There is also QR code option,but you have to use mobile phone to access QR code.  This means you have to install VPN app on your mobile phone,then sync your account from your mobile phone to your laptop or computer.  This is a very cumbersome process.  It's much easier to use pre-made link for laptop or computer. Hello. I intermediary. I search job: posting your advertisement(sale,service) on various forums.  My service is free: posting your advertisement(sale,service) on various forums. I know these forum addresses,i can post your ad(for sale,service) on various forums. Dear sellers and those who provide any services. I offer you cooperation. My commission is not taken from your amount,my commission is added to your amount. From money received from guarantor,you pay me my commission.  Payment is made on Tether USDT TRC20 or on Tron TRX. Commission for sending from your wallet to my wallet paid by buyer. When communicating via messenger,please tell me what your commission is for sending on Tether USDT TRC20 or on Tron TRX.  Amount(fees) you'll pay as shipping fee to my wallet will be added to total amount. Payment will be made by guarantor to your payment details. Buyer deposits total amount with my percentage. Send me in messenger your ad copy with price(s). Independently from that through which messenger will be communication,buyer suggests using forum guarantor,gives forum address(http address) and send link(http address) to me,link i will pass on to you(seller) for consideration. If you as seller are not satisfied garant service on proposed forum,i say buyer goodbye and he goes to look for his product(service) from someone else,as result i will wait new buyer.   If sale amount is less than $1000,i receive 20 percent above your total amount. If sale amount is more than $1000,i receive 10 percent above your total amount. I do not deal with either buyers or sellers from Ukraine(i do not cooperate with this country). I will not accept any advertising related to Ukraine,as i do not cooperate with this country. For buyers from other countries guarantor's services are entirely at buyer's expense. You can offer me any other area cooperation that does not violate law.  I do not give 100% guarantee that i will accept your offer,which is not initially related to my advertising area.  It is 50/50 that i will either refuse you or accept your offer.  Everything will depend on whether this offer does not violate law.  I will read information about your product(service) in Google search engine that you offer me for advertising and make decision,which i will inform you in messenger for communication.  I will need some time to familiarize myself with information from Google search engine. I'm currently interested in 4 areas: 1)promotional offers with discounts only(coupons or promo codes):food,shoes,clothing,furniture,cosmetics,household appliances,consumer electronics,taxis,bus tickets,train tickets,plane tickets,hotel tickets,gas coupons or promo codes for car owners I do not advertise Ukraine,do not cooperate with it and have no dealings with it. I will not advertise anything related to carding.  Buyer deposits amount for product(service) plus my commission(20 percent based on amount for product or service) into guarantor and then receives their product(service) in forum transaction.  I would be grateful if it were possible for buyer to receive their goods somehow after depositing money with guarantor,without return address or contact information for future purchases. It's not in my best interests for buyer to communicate directly with you after first purchase. If this isn't possible,then you will simply agree with buyer to receive money with my percentage higher than your initial payment each time. If same customer purchases from you second time,customer pay you together with my percentage and i receive this percentage from you,this will provide additional incentive to advertise,i will promoting you on other forums.     2)selling real estate(houses or apartments) I'm not interested renting. I'm willing to advertise all countries except Russia and Ukraine.  I won't advertise these two countries. I don't advertise Ukraine,don't cooperate with it and have no dealings with it. I'm not interested house or apartment listings that appear on Google search pages,as buyer can find information there themselves without my help and buy house or apartment in desired country. I'm interested house or apartment that aren't listed on Google search. How i see this ad:buyer sees my listing for desired country and if they're interested,they deposit 10 percent listed price for house or apartment in Garant Service. Buyer sets  deadline in forum transaction,during which i either receive my money or don't.  Then buyer receive an address,day and time to meet with seller. Buyer takes lawyer and notary with them and flies(or is driving car) to  given address. If purchase transaction falls through,buyer collects their percentage from guarantor. I don't think buyer willing to buy  house or apartment worth more than 12545$ is willing to cheat me out  that 10 percent by making up  fake story about  failed deal.       3)selling telegram premium status Buyer has two options: 1) transaction through guarantor 2) transaction without guarantor   If transaction is through guarantor. I(intermediary) conduct transaction with guarantor. Buyer specifies following terms in terms transaction: 1) i authorize the disclosure of the transaction name to third parties(that is to you) 2) i authorize the disclosure of the seller's payment details(your payment details) to third parties(that is to you) 3) i authorize the disclosure of the total transaction amount to third parties(that is to you) 4) i do not authorize the disclosure of my profile link on this forum to third parties 5) i do not authorize the disclosure of my contact information(if i have any in my profile on this forum) to third parties   If activating premium status requires logging into buyer's account,i will do this.  You will provide me with instructions on how to activate premium status for buyer's account. If you want to contact me about selling premium status on telegram, but my telegram account is unavailable(account is frozen or telegram system has deleted it),you can contact me using my other contact information. To activate premium status by logging into buyer's account,i will download portable version telegram from official website and launch it on my laptop.  I will enter mobile phone number buyer provides me in messenger they originally contacted me through and send login code to this number.  Buyer will then send me login code. Once transaction is finalized and buyer has deposited funds into guarantor's account I'll notify you via messenger. You register on  forum suggested by buyer.  Message guarantor privately on forum,asking them to share all points I've outlined above.  Buyer will provide  link to guarantor's forum profile in advance or you can find guarantor's forum profile on forum yourself,it's up to you to decide. After verifying that your payment details are included and that transaction amount matches amount agreed upon in messenger, you upgrade buyer to premium status. Your payment details are specified in application,in formquestionnaire for forum transaction,but you won't receive money from guarantor until buyer will not receive service(product),as soon as buyer receives service from you,guarantor will pay you. If buyer has received premium status,you receive funds from guarantor and then pay me my commission using my payment details. The fee for sending from your wallet to my wallet is covered by buyer,not you. When communicating via messenger please tell me your fee for sending to Tether USDT TRC20 or Tron TRX. Buyer deposits funds into guarantor with total amount already including my percentage plus buyer's fee for sending,which you will spend by paying me my percentage when transferring from Tether USDT TRC20 or Tron TRX. If transaction is without guarantor. Buyer pays money to your payment details received from me via messenger and waits for service to be rendered. I will inform buyer total amount when communicating via messenger. You upgrade buyer to premium status through me and then you pay me my percentage to my payment details.  If activating premium status requires logging into buyer's account. I will do so.  You will provide me with instructions on how to activate premium status for buyer's account. Fee for sending from your wallet to my wallet is covered by buyer,not you.  When communicating via messenger please tell me your fee for sending to Tether(USDT TRC20) or Tron(TRX). Buyer pays you total amount,including my percentage plus buyer's fee for sending,which you will spend by paying me my percentage when transferring from Tether USDT TRC20 or Tron TRX.       4)i offer cooperation to specialists who provide services for collecting and submitting documents to consulate for citizenship,residence permits,visas and schengen visas I will advertise service collecting and sending documents to consulate only for following countries:Commonwealth of Independent States,Europe,Mexico,United states america,Canada,United Kingdom,Asia,Africa. Russia and Ukraine:these two countries i will not advertise. Buyer pays guarantor(amount from seller) for service for collecting and sending documents to consulate plus my commission(10 or 20 percent based on service fee). Buyer sets deadline in forum transaction within which they must receive service. Then in forum transaction buyer wait provision service. If after specified period(which will be specified in transaction),consulate refuses client's service,you as specialist have right to charge exact amount for your work through guarantor,since you spent your time on it(this clause will be specified in transaction). What will be amount you will decide,send solution through me.I'll let the buyer know. Client does not pay my percentage if consulate refuses client's service(this clause will be specified in transaction).  In case refusal to buyer from consulate you will need to confirm this refusal through website. Whenever you collect and submit documents on country's website,request is created through their website.  You will provide access to this request to guarantor.  This is necessary to ensure that buyer doesn't pay for nothing,meaning amount you will be required to receive through  guarantor for service provided if  consulate's request is unsuccessful.
