Another manteinance, another way to add complexity to my RO adventures.

Patched all the way to the end.

Go in game, cant see new ocp on cash shop, also missing sprites of all new ocp items, if I try to buy one from player. Kaboom, windows desktop trip.

Any advice?, dunt want to re-install if avoidable.

Hello,

 

Force repatch the client for at least 2 weeks earlier, follow the steps below.

  1. Restart your device.
  2. Clear Internet Explorer cache, if you don't know how please check Appendix #2 in this post.
  3. Make sure Ragnarok Online.exe and Ragexe.exe are set to run as an admin all the time, if using dedicated antimalware/antivirus programs make sure the same are white-listed from the active scans.
  4. Download patch.inf from this link, make sure to read the instructions carefully.

Let us know if that resolves your issue.

Thanks Cinnamod.

That saved the day.

There is actually a way to browse through the patches list/dates?

Asking in case I need to go back to the resource again.

Will start creating a backup of my patch data prior to manteinance. Better safe than sorry.

Yes, if you are referring to choobs method.

 

How to use Choobs patch.inf generator with example [Renewal version].

 

Important:

When using Choobs method, first verify start date of the issue. Usually issues happen per weekly basis, for example, if a sprite issue related to a new item released this week, you would want to patch the client a week or 2 weeks earlier.

 

Steps:

  1. Browse to your RO folder, find and open patch2.txt.
  2. Scroll down to the desired patch/date.
  3. Note the numbers found in front of each line/patch.
    Sample:
    3465 
    2018-06-14data_r.rgz
    3466 2018-06-14data_gm_r.gpf
    The patch number for 2018-06-14data_gm_r.gpf is 3466. And so on.
  4. If you want to start patching from a certain patch file/date, you would choose the patch before the desired one.
    Example, your target patch file is 3466 2018-06-14data_gm_r.gpf. In this case, you would go for 3465 2018-06-14data_r.rgz.
  5. Now that you have the number in mind which is 3465, visit Choobs patch.inf generator on this link.
  6. In the designed area enter 3465, choose server Renewal, then click on download, follow the instructions as in the linked page.
  7. If the steps are executed correctly, the patch client will start patching from 3466 2018-06-14data_gm_r.gpf till to date.

Please keep in mind, the patching will always start at the patch file found below the entered number.

 

Disclaimer:

The patch number in the instructions is for explanatory purposes only.

 

If something is not clear let us know.
