Run the setupwizard program. This will assist you in + configuring Athena for the first time. Just follow the + instructions in the program. +2. Edit motd.txt, grf-files.txt & .conf files as neccessary +3. If you want to add a user, go to tools and use the AddUser + tool +4. Run the login-server, char-server and map-server in the + main Athena directory +5. You're done! + +-------------------------------------------------------------- +> Upgrading from older eAthena: +-------------------------------------------------------------- +- From a release newer than 953 or 817: +1.

You're done! + +NOTE: It is not recommended to transfer your DB files +as the DB files are constantly updated by the eAthena/jAthena +team. Just read your changes to the new DB files instead of +replacing the new DB file with your old one. +-------------------------------------------------------------- +- From a release older than 670: +1.

You're done! + +NOTE: It is not recommended to transfer your .conf files from +your old eAthena setup to this new one because there are always +changes and new additions to these .conf files all the time + +NOTE 2: It is also not recommended to transfer your DB files +as the DB files are constantly updated by the eAthena/jAthena +team. Just readd your changes to the new DB files instead of +replacing the new DB file with your old one. +-------------------------------------------------------------- +-------------------------------------------------------------- + + +-------------------------------------------------------------- +-------------------------------------------------------------- +Playing eAthena +-------------------------------------------------------------- +1. Make sure all the files are setup properly (conf files) +2. Load eAthena + 2a. Run login-server + 2b. Run char-server + 2c. Run map-server +3. Wait for map-server to finish loading. +4. Play using a custom XML. +-------------------------------------------------------------- +-------------------------------------------------------------- + + +-------------------------------------------------------------- +-------------------------------------------------------------- +Frequently Asked Questions +-------------------------------------------------------------- + +A: You're missing the cygwin dlls. Please get the latest dll at: + http://www.cygwin.com/snapshot. If you're unsure, asking + around in our IRC chatroom will get you around too, but + always remember - use common sense and search before asking. + +Q: My map-server won't load! It appears to be loading things + before it dissapeared suddenly! HELP! +A: Use command line to load map-server. It should tell you the + error. If you're missing a map, update your kRO Sakray or + uncomment the map from map_athena.conf. If you have an + errornous NPC, fix it or comment it off. Anything other than + that, feel free to ask around. + +Q: My map-server failed to load 'adata.grf'! Where do I find + this adata.grf? My map-server won't load without it! +A: The error that caused the map-server to not load is not the + adata.grf. You do NOT need to have adata.grf so that the map + server can load. The error is probably something else. + +Q: All 3 of the servers are loaded, but I am still having + problems accessing it! What do I do? +A: First, check the IPs in map_athena.conf and char_athena.conf. + If that's correct, check the ports to make sure they match. + If that's correct too, you probably cannot handle the server + load. Lower the monster spawning rate using mob_count in + battle_athena.conf and it should be fine. + +Q: You said eAthena has 2-2 skills. Well, I tried it and there + are no 2-2 skills when I use 2-2 characters! You lie! +A: No, I did not. You have an outdated Ragexe/Sakexe that does + not support 2-2 skills. Update it to a later one which does. + +Q: How do I start Guild Wars/War of Emperium??? HELP!!! +A: Read the help.txt for full list of commands that GMs can use. + @agitstart and @agitend is also listed there as commands to + start and end Guild Wars. + +Q: My Ragnarok Online crashed while playing with eAthena! What + do I do now? +A: Well, if your Ragnarok crashes, it's most probably not + anything to do with eAthena. Something is wrong with your + Ragnarok installation. Try reinstalling or updating. + +Q: Is eAthena compatible with mySQL? Can I use mySQL as the DB + instead of using text files? +A: Yes, eAthena is compatible with mySQL. A tutorial on how to + setup this is coming soon. + +Q: Is eAthena compatible with msSQL? Can I use msSQL as the DB + instead of using text files? +A: No, eAthena is not compatible with msSQL. You cannot use + msSQL with eAthena. + +Q: I found a bug! Where do I report it? +A: Drop the developers a line at the IRC chatroom. Or just post + it in the bug report forum. We check them out too. :) + +Q: I know alot of C and I'm able to help improve eAthena and + add new features. How can I join your development team? +A: Try talking to one of the current developers in the eAthena + channel. + +Q: What is this AthenaAdvanced/omniAthena that I keep hearing of? +A: Huh? What's that? + +Q: Why does eAthena crash, and how come you can't prevent this? +A: eAthena is a working in progress we never stated eAthena is + bug free, most likely no software is bugfree, if they state + this they are lying sons of beeps and you should sue them + for false advertisement. +-------------------------------------------------------------- +-------------------------------------------------------------- + + +-------------------------------------------------------------- +-------------------------------------------------------------- +Support +-------------------------------------------------------------- +For support, first check the Frequent Asked Questions. +If the question doesn't exist, check the forums.
