I'm finally being able to save my settings after changing the setup to be run on a compatibility other than Windows XP.

Not sure if this works for everyone.

explain what you did. Your Operative System and all the step.

[Joshiji]

what compatibility did you use?

[Lexanord]

Windows 95

Edit: My OS is Windows XP, I just change the compatibility mode of the setup.exe to Windows 95 and I'm able to save the settings.

Thats exactly what I did.

what do you mean by compatibility?

Right click on the setup.exe in the game folder, and select properties.

There should be a check box for "run in compatibility mode" and a drop down menu to select which version of windows to run as.

Click apply, then ok. (I am going off memory here, this PC is Win7)

What I put won't necessarily be what you want. Do you want full screen or window mode? If window mode what's your screen resolution?

Right click on the setup.exe in the game folder, and select properties.

There we go, we've had the answer posted 3 times, once by the big cheese. This should help you guys

facts after the patch:

1. both client and the new setup.exe now save to /savedata/ instead of /data/
2. the client still creates a dummy OptionInfo.lua file in /data/ which is obsolete
3. the .lua files in both folders are identical in syntax thus the ones from /data/ can be copied over to /savedata/ to restore all settings
4. client now appends option values to OptionInfo.lua instead of replacing them
5. (if this won't be fixed) OptionInfo.lua will grow by a kilobyte every time the game is started and closed until the hdd is full
6. starting the game as admin changes nothing for all these facts

This. Renewal client changes with setup, but classic doesn't. Before this patch if I ran setup as Admin I was able to change both classic and renewal resolutions.

[Misfortune]

I am unable to save from Setup.exe, regardless of compatibility mode.
As soon as I save, I get an exception in msvcr90.dll.
I believe it to be c0000005 which is an access violation.
After a run of setup.exe savedata contains an OptionInfo.lua, but it is 0 bytes. (and has overwritten any previous non-0 byte version)
The old "Data" version of the file only contains a few things and lacks screen size options.
Anyone have a good copy of that file they can post the content of?

[bl0ck]

I use W7,thanks Oda...it works for me.

[BixoDaGoiaba]

For Renewal or Classic?

[JmapSmith]

So I got up this morning, fired up the client and recieved a very tiny update. Patched both the original ragnarok and the classic one. Logged in to Valkyrie and all is well. Then I tried to open the classicRO and got this very tiny window of it which I can't seem to see anything other than 3 words of the introduction warning/rules. Tried everything from moving data files to changing compatibility up unto the running as admin. None seems to work, been trying for the past 3-4 hours now. Setup doesn't seem to have effect on classicRO.

Any help would appreciated.

*Below is the picture of the VERY tiny window I was talking about. Forgot to put a circle around it. The window is by the Classic Tech Sup portion of the pic*forums*

For Renewal or Classic?

Classic not working..

[ElBriccone]

I have to same issue regarding the screen size. I am not able to find a fitting resolution. Nearly all resolutions in full screen mode switches to landscape format. And without fullscreen mode the screen is in every case to small to play.
I am realy annoyed. Before patch everything works fine, after patch everything sucks....

Is there may any possbilitiy to provide the old setup.exe and use that?
