Balik RO Player here! Some questions about New Iris botting.

[zenleich]

Hi guys. I'm a balik RO player. Last time I played or botted in RO was about 2/3 years ago at New Chaos and I was getting/lending support at darkmoon.ath.cx. I recently had the urge to play RO again and I wanted to try playing at the F2P servers. I chose New Iris since it's the latest server and hopefully I could catch up with the others. I have botted in Valkyrie/Valhalla servers before and I hope I'm still familiar with using poseidon. I haven't done this in a long while so I hope you guys can help me out with some of my questions.

First and foremost, I got my openkore_ready program from:
http://openkore.collectskin.com/
So no problems there.

Q1. I noticed there is no server info for New Iris in the "server.txt", so can anyone share the complete server info with me?

Q2. I remember from my time in Valk/Valh that I can't play and bot at the same time because of GG, so I had to disable it with a hex editor. Is there still hex editing support in this forums and can someone share the good old hex editor. FYI, I do know of the thread "New Iris - Dual & Disabled GG client" but I wanted to know if there is continued support for hexing clients.

Q3. Is there any notable difference between the New Loki and the New Iris servers besides the fact that New Loki is a year older. Because if I can't find support for New Iris then I don't mind playing in New Loki.

Q4. Is botting still the same back then? I mean in terms of configuring the bot. Since I quit RO before Renewal, I'm worried botting has also changed in a way. I haven't finished downloading and patching RO yet so I haven't tested anything out. Also, I have no server info so...

Q5. To old RO players. What matters is your personal opinion. Overall, which is better: Pre-renewal or Post-renewal RO? And if you have time, please state why.

Thank you! I hope we can all get along once more.

A1.) Yeah I noticed it too but anyway, you can put on your own New Iris server info.
Try this:

Code: Select all

[Philippines - pRO: New Iris]
ip 202.57.117.80
port 6900
master_version 15
version 1
secureLogin 1
secureLogin_type 0
secureLogin_requestCode
secureLogin_account 0
serverType mRO
patchserver wpatch.ragnarok.com.ph
patchpath /patch50
storageEncryptKey 0x050B6F79, 0x0202C179, 0x0E20120, 0x04FA43E3, 0x0179B6C8, 0x05973DF2, 0x07D8D6B, 0x08CB9ED9
serverEncoding Tagalog
charBlockSize 116
gameGuard 1
recvpackets recvpackets.txt
addTableFolders pRO

A2.) There's still hexing support but due to Gravity using latest compiler, the usual process is more complicated. You can use the New Iris client to dual login on other servers just in case.

A3.) Well, in New Iris they brought back the PK Maps just like in Valkyrie so expect your bots to be slaughtered by manual players if you bot on PK Maps.

A4.) It's still the same though, according to your timeline, it's been 2/3 years since you last bot so I guess the "doCommand" will be new to you but you can check out the Openkore manual for it.

A5.) I think the better choices are Pre-renewal and Renewal since why having a choice of Post-Renewal since we're still in Renewal.
Everyone have their own choices but every game needs to update so RO also updated to Renewal, but for personal choice, I prefer the Trans era(Pre-renewal).

Enjoy.

Why it isn't in svn?

thanks for the help guys but after playing manually for the last few days i decided to back out while it's still early. the ingame economy is horrible, there are bot armies everywhere, and pvp is dominated by the rich. i could barely manage to find a good aco to party with my archer in payon and most of them are KS'ing my kills.
