    Magics that do work seem to be based on the 1.4 client.

    We need either a plug-in, a lot of extra hex code or better still a newer server.exe

    We do however have plenty of new skills compared to 2.9 server.

    Shame the warrior char loses out yet again.

    Resurrection/Revive and AdvTeleport/geomanip will no doubt be the most popular by far.

    As to books not opening this mainly to do with the client exe you are using, that is providing that you have done the obvious matching up of magic.dat and books in stditems.dat char type levels etc.

    I have found as a good guide is to look at the new skill and to wether it has a proper icon in your skill book, if it dont have a proper icon dont waste your time on it.

    The server on my looking on has the code for the 1.4 skills, if im not mistaken the skills were in reference to JOB server ala 1.4 client. There is a new server floating about to enable the new magics to actually damage stuff but as of yet - ive not found a link that works (its a patch). Basically if you have 1.4 client /interface - that is the magics that works, anything not included on that skills box dont have any effect at all on any of the mobs.

    Im sure soon there will be a patch to enable them...as the chinese are trying hard to catch up to 3G...

    true , i had some server files4 months ago i knew that chinese were playing with it ( working ) , i never bothered to work with msrf , infact i hated it, i had a diferent version that worked.

    From the chats i've been having with chinese . some managed to get all working ( 1.45 magics ( i think the last one in tao wasnt ) and some didnt yet , the funny part i had was someone that couldnt make the weather ( snow ) working :)

    but on this server files i've been doing mostly some translations for a friend , nothing much on tech stuff , but Tb you're right on the tech stuff , chinese are soooo much advanced , they work much better

    Oh just a quicky ref the client side, i have from the chines forums a working (mostly) 1.45 client as in it has all the skills listed, the glow works and it reads in the extra files - looking at the code its been unpacked then repacked (very messy) - but i unpacked once more to see what it had in it - it reads Mon 21 - Horse and HorseS and so far on my testing - everything works - though im not so sure on this autorun thing (though ive been told this is normal). I perticulally like the 3 option boxes so i can switch all things off and on - only thing i found that dont work properly is the Quest box dont come up but a line in Chat box tell you the quest your on (i can see problems with this if you have a few on the go like) and the email box dont do nothing at all - buts its a step forward as they say.

    Now a lot of people are aksing (on chinese forums) about the new interface and funny enough they aint got this working properly yet - Does not bother me much though, I have lots of scripts from there such as Aution System (like euromir ive been told) where you can put your item up for sale etc. My main goal is to take this version as is - get it all working without worrying at the moment about some magics not working so as a place to start as it were rather then dedicate my time on a interface, magic when ive not even finished all the npcs yet. Ive only got about 50ish to do then the long haul testing comes about....
