AO 2022 Server&client files with source

**Angry Catster** · 11-08-22

Decided to make a thread containing working client and server files for all major ace online episodes (except ep1. Did it even exist?) . There are google drive links with modified source in case you want to compile this stuff yourself.

Here are the sources I’ve used:

And here are the changes and fixes I’ve added:

Retargeted solutions to VS2022;
Enabled 16x AF and 4x MSAA by default;
Very basic high resolution and ultrawide support (4k is largely unplayable, 1440p and 1440p ultrawide are pretty good though);
Gear preview in the inventory now has roughly the same size no matter the resolution;
Raised the render distance on almost all maps;
Windowed mode is replaced with borderless window;
Significantly sped up the game start by removing the intro (recompile the client without “#define _INSTANT_LAUNCH” if you don’t want that);
Removed the slow fade out effect (recompile the client without “#define _NO_FADE” if you don’t want that);
Fixed a bunch of bugs, which caused the bins to not compile or work properly;
Added numeric health bars (took them from DreamACE/Eternal Skies 4.3 source and ported to other sources);
Added wireframe, noclip and show events for admins which can be togged with F11, Shift+F11 and Ctrl+F11 respectively (took this from DreamACE/Eternal Skies 4.3 source and ported to other sources);
Stopping your gear with “b” button no longer autohorizonts you. (took this from DreamACE/Eternal Skies 4.3 source and ported to other sources);
Enabled all ep4.6 quests (later ones can’t be completed because maps lack the required monsters);
Ported most of the episode 4.6 content to episode 3.5 and 4.3 (maps, items, monsters, quests. Episode 4.3 also got that ep4.6 world map which can be opened by pressing “n” button);
Probably some other stuff I don’t remember.

Do note that I know literally nothing about c++ or programming in general, so expect to see some jank in my additions.

Episode 2
I don’t have a source code for these files, you will be stuck with 1600x900 resolution and broken music. Other than that, everything seems to work properly.

Patch 1.1. You only need this if you are upgrading from previous version:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/115C...ew?usp=sharing
Patch 1.2. You only need this if you are upgrading from previous version:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1oOS...usp=share_link

Setting up the server:
1. Follow the Database Setup step from St34lth4ng3l’s tutorial, but restore the database backups from the server files you downloaded;
2. Go to config folder and open global.cfg and Aglobal.cfg (or ArenaGlobal.cfg) and change $LOCAL_IP_ADDR to your IP (don’t use 127.0.0.1);
3. Copy the contents of DeclarationOfWar.txt and execute them as a query in MSSQL management studio;
4. Start all server executables in any order.

To launch the game, use start.bat (change it to your ip) and type the account info. You can add an account to the database using MSSQL management studio or use “123” as a username and password to log into admin account.

What version of MSSQL you using this DB?

**striker77733** · 19-08-22

You need at least SQL Server 2017 (version 14.0.1)

**wjdrbsdl94** · 20-08-22

There is no monster in Bach Mountain. (EP.4.6)

**yokohiro** · 21-08-22

Token machine dont work.
Version 4.6

**Angry Catster** · 22-08-22

Here is a fix for Bach Mountain monsters. Place it into Server46\map
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gz0...ew?usp=sharing

For token machine you need to open ti_LuckyMachine table and change MyseryItemDropNum 284 to 219 for buildinqIndex 9364 and 9365

Added these fixes to the main files

I will add these fixes to release files once you guys discover some more problems

look this https://ibb.co/m5yD6kt

**xxradicaldxx** · 23-08-22

you can find the database in the archives. released by me =.

Check files DB and restore

**xxradicaldxx** · 24-08-22

I think you will have to study a little about this.Remember that on youtube you have several videos on how to create a local server.

Hi all,
Client just disappears after I enter password and press Start. Any idea?

maybe you need to download directx
If you can't figure it out, maybe you'll find some bug in the code, but I don't think that would be the case.everything works correctly

remember that the debug tells you the exact line of the error. If you could be more precise about your problem, I might be able to help you.

if in GM user you don't get error in factory then maybe you have problem with interface.tex

**vinleprince** · 29-08-22

install directx 9.0c / visual c++ restribute

**wjdrbsdl94** · 29-08-22

Factory does not work with certain item recipes. (ex Ancient Arrow, etc.)

Execute this as a query in mssql management studio to fix factory:

Code:

USE atum2_db_account; 
GO 
UPDATE ti_ItemMixingInfo   
SET MixingProbability = '10000' 
WHERE MixingProbability > 10001 or MixingProbability < -1;

It seems most of the problems come from the crappy database.
And here is a query to fix gambling machines (hopefully for good this time):

Code:

USE atum2_db_account; 
GO 
UPDATE ti_LuckyMachine   
SET MysteryItemDropNum = '219' 
WHERE MysteryItemDropNum = 284; 
GO 
UPDATE ti_LuckyMachine 
SET MysteryItemDropNum = '220' 
WHERE MysteryItemDropNum = 321;

Find a couple more bugs and I’ll include all fixes in the main release

I don't know much about it, but I think it has to do with the ItemAtributte

**Angry Catster** · 29-08-22

nevermind
