attdot Posted December 15, 2012 Report Posted December 15, 2012 Hello. I was interested to play this server so I tried to install the game. This is the first time I have installed Ragnarok in my computer. I have ran this through "Run as Administrator". However, during the time I was installing it, this error pops up: I have retried this many times but no avail. Does this mean I have to resort to manual patching?
Bishop Posted December 15, 2012 Report Posted December 15, 2012 (edited) Manual patching won't solve this issue I'm afraid. I think your download got corrupted and therefore it won't install correctly. Did you download the game through torrent or the direct link ? If you tried the direct link then try downloading it from the torrent instead. If you tried the torrent , try downloading it from the direct link instead. I'd recommend you to use a program called flashget to do so. This will speed up your download and minimize the chances of data corruption. Edited December 15, 2012 by Bishop

Trying downloading the Full kRO renewal seperately and just download the small client, it worked for me so I hope this will help.
attdot Posted December 15, 2012 Author Report Posted December 15, 2012 (edited) Okay. I will see what I can do by downloading the full renewal. Yes Bishop I downloaded the All-In-One from a direct link. I dislike using torrents because of safety reasons but I can also try that if it is the only way of getting the installation to work again. Last minute edit: My results trying to extract the manual patch. I could try suggesting more mirror links to the site; with parts of it so it wouldn't be corrupted that way. Also, while I was reading the downloads page, I found a typo: "Once downloaded, simply drag and drop the files into a folder of oyur choosing." Edited December 15, 2012 by attdot
Bishop Posted December 15, 2012 Report Posted December 15, 2012 The torrent is supported by a dedicated seeder box. Doesn't seem unsafe in any way to me. Also it seems like there's just something wrong with your downloads if the manual patch is having the same issues. Are you using any download accelerator/manager ?
attdot Posted December 16, 2012 Author Report Posted December 16, 2012 (edited) I am using nothing other than running Google Chrome to download the files. It could be the reason but I am just making sure by downloading it again via Firefox. Edited December 16, 2012 by attdot

Bishop Posted December 16, 2012 Report Posted December 16, 2012 I would highly recommend for you to just download the newest kRo renewal, then combine it with the small client. This would always be a last resort option. Not a preferred one.
Magellan of Impel Down Posted December 16, 2012 Report Posted December 16, 2012 This would always be a last resort option. Not a preferred one. This happened to me when I went on the all in one, so I just went on to that and I have been playing for 3 days now with no problem so far haha :S
Bishop Posted December 16, 2012 Report Posted December 16, 2012 Yes but if there's any (custom)changes made to the sdata.grf file within our full installer you won't have the same sdata.grf by installing it through ragray etc from RMS. + it's an outside source + it's a tiny bit more complicated in install it in parts. Therefore it's not preferred.
attdot Posted December 17, 2012 Author Report Posted December 17, 2012 Well I came back and tried to download the file using Firefox. The error pops up: It is probably an error on my part... I have a crappy computer. At this moment I am using the torrent.
attdot Posted December 17, 2012 Author Report Posted December 17, 2012 (edited) The torrent worked perfectly. I'm able to get in the game. Thank you very much (at Apprentice and Bishop) for the assistance. I deeply appreciate it. Quick edit: Max leveled and still getting one shot killed by other people. Haha...

Bishop Posted December 17, 2012 Report Posted December 17, 2012 Probably your browsers acted up during the regular download. I'm glad the torrent one worked out for you :) As for your edit. This server is quite ygg-dependant. A lot of berries and seeds are flowing during pvp. I'd recommend you to do the knight quest as it gives a very decent equipment set. That + a few basic cards can increase your survivability a lot. For example we have a custom card called Usakoring Card which reduces damage from demi human monsters (This includes players) by 35%. The card is compounded on your shield :). If you have any other questions please let me know, else I'll be closing this topic and marking it as solved :) Regards, Bishop
attdot Posted December 17, 2012 Author Report Posted December 17, 2012 I see! That is very interesting. I did notice that some cards of the custom monsters do not have art in them. There is someone I know who may do some art of them, if it is possible. But yes I believe I have no more questions after this. I will definitely come back if I do have anymore technical problems.
Bishop Posted December 17, 2012 Report Posted December 17, 2012 Hmmm, I can't answer if that's possible. You might want to contact Genesis about it :). Alright, feel free to make a new topic whenever needed. Closing this one !
