PR-AxeGunner: This is currently very outdated, and is recommended you do NOT use this guide. The files have been removed because they are either not there or heavily outdated. Thank you.
IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEMS AT ALL:Move these files (sdata, sakray, sakexe, and spatch), and your BGM folder (if you have one) to a
new folder, and install my MiniSetup (found
[Here] or
[Here] or
[Here]) to that new folder.
After you've installed it, Sakray will autopatch, then you start dyefire. This should patch Anthem, then you can play the game.
HOW TO DOWNLOAD AND INSTALL ANTHEMRO:Note:
USE A NEW, SEPERATE, CLEAN FOLDER! DO NOT INSTALL THIS TO AN OLD ANIMARO FOLDER!Note 2: It's reccommended that you DO NOT install using just the Mini Installer into another server's folder. It may cause errors.
Note 3: Do NOT use a download manager!
Note 4: Do NOT use iRO files, they will do nothing.
1. Install Sakray to a
blank folder:
[Here] or Google it.
(The button order is: Left, Left, Middle, then choose the blank folder, then Middle button. At the end, uncheck the checked checkbox.)
2. Download and install the AnthemRO Mini Setup to your RO directory:
[Here] or
[Here] or
[Here](Includes Dyefire and Alternative Sakray/deXter's SakPak)
3. Patch Sakray. Refer to Sakray patching section, lower in this guide.
4. (Optional, but reccommended for the full experience) Download the Background Music:
[Here]5. Have fun and play!
HOW TO PATCH SAKRAY:Sakray is the Korean client that AnthemRO uses game data from. In order to play error-free, you need to patch Sakray.
Run "sakray" or "sakray.exe" but NOT "Sakexe" or "Sakexe.exe" The one with the RO icon is what you want, not the one with the gears icon.
When you are patching it will look like this, though the image may be different:
http://i30.tinypic.com/xofvba.pngDuring the time it patches, you should leave your computer alone and
try not to run other programs.
When it is done patching, you'll see it looks like this:
http://i27.tinypic.com/zve6nk.pngNotice how the left button now tells you to Exit, as opposed to the "Please Wait" displayed during patching.
When it's done, just click the rightmost button to exit.
IF YOU CAN'T PATCH THIS WAY:
Simply run "Alternative Sakray" in the same folder. When it's done, Exit, don't hit start.
SPRITE/SHADOW ERRORS:If you are having trouble playing, or get sprite/shadow errors, you should run Sakray.exe in your RO folder and wait for it to finish patching. Essentially, wait for the leftmost button to become clickable. When it is, and no patches are being downloaded, you should click the rightmost button.
CANNOT INIT D3D OR GRF HAS A PROBLEM ERRORS:This essentially means you need to update your Video card drivers or download/update your DirectX. Check here for more in-depth info:
[Here]CANNOT INIT AUDIO/SOUND:Try opening the Setup icon in your RO folder, and changing the sound settings. If it still fails, try reinstalling my MiniSetup.
CANNOT CONNECT TO SERVER ERRORS:If you cannot connect to the server, first check the server status here:

If it's up, try redownloading the AnthemRO Mini Setup and reinstalling directly over your current files.
