Title: I got a New Computer?
Post by: DreamerP on November 26, 2010, 05:21:32 pm

Ok I downloaded the game again...and everything seems ok.

But I know I have to download something with regards to the Ragnarok_RE that has changed but I'm not sure what to download I forgot how I did it before  ???

Here you guys go. The zip file is for people that get a blank patcher when they run Ragnarok_RE. The second one is just a drop-in replacement for the executable. If you installed fresh from the full installer, you'll probably need the zip file; otherwise, just replace the exe in your RO folder with the one below. Let me know if you run into any problems.

Tested working as of October 21, 2010 - 5AM EST:
http://providence.project-dissonance.com/tools/patcher/PatchClient.zip
http://providence.project-dissonance.com/tools/patcher/Ragnarok_RE.exe


EDIT: Before I forget, here's some troubleshooting stuff:

• If you get an error about a C++ runtime or something like that, it's because there's something wrong with the patcher's manifest file (Google it if you want to know more). In this case, you would run init.exe. That's all Init.exe is for: applying an updated manifest file. The patchers above both have the updated manifests embedded in them, so you won't have to worry too much about that.
• If you get a grey box even after replacing Ragnarok_RE.exe, you're missing some files in your PatchClient folder. In that case, just download the zip file above and you should be set.
• If you get a message with a bunch of question marks and some number (20%? I don't remember), it's saying that more than so-and-so percent of the GRF file is unnecessary data. I think of the GRF like a room that accumulates trash over time. In this case, it's asking you if you want to clean it up a bit. It's really up to you, but I hit yes whenever this pops up. It saved me more than 100mb in just one run.
• If you run the game client (not the patcher) and it says "Ragnarok_RE.exe is changed. Press ok to restart", do not hit ok. Some updated Gravity patcher is going to replace your edited one and it'll probably just open the kRO website instead of patching your game files. If you happen to hit ok, just redownload the zip from above and drop a line on the forums. I'll try my best to keep these links updated with the latest patchers.

Depends on which one you downloaded. The ZIP will give you the whole thing, the EXE will just give you the..well...EXE.
