Now, the files CAN be found if you look hard enough. This alone takes a lot of effort, and I'm not sure if anyone has successfully pieced them together correctly. You're only going to be able to find undeveloped copies of the v14 beta initial leak.
THESE ARE VERY, VERY, VERY BUGGY.
Unless you know a FUCKTON about developing Flyff, you have zero chances in getting a relatively stable server going. As I'm a GM for DemonFlyff, I saw first hand how true this is. On the very first test server, it was an ungodly slaughter by the bugs and glitches. I'm not dissing leechers, I'm just stating the simple truth.
Now, as far as the buttrape factor goes for using these files (like v11 Fame files -> not the best idea), it's relatively safe in my opinion. The initial hackers/main leaker won't rage into oblivion and hack your server. At this time, the only real threat is from other v14 servers who frankly don't want the competition.
The v14 servers that are currently online (I'm not advertising, I'm just stating the simple truth), the most bug-free ones that are worth noting are DemonFlyff or iFlyff. I know Mica at iFlyff is beastly, but DemonFlyff also has anonymous beastly devs. As I'm making this thread, I can say that the two are pretty balanced. Both servers have most of the kinks worked out. Fame has the files tucked away somewhere, but I'm not sure if they plan on going v14. KingdomFlyff stole their files from MonsterFlyff, and is very buggy. There are a few German servers I believe, but I'm too nab to look into those.
For a while, everyone will rageface at any threads asking for help with v14 files. I would gladly help all of you if I could, but I don't know squat ;_; I recommend that if you have any problems, tread (or should I say thread) VERY lightly and try not to look like too big of a leecher. Glaphan will probably just lock any thread asking for help, big meanie buns :( If you don't know anything like me, just sit back and wait for a while. Won't be long till better releases and an actual tutorial is made. If you're new to this stuff, try working with the official v11 files. They're very similar and once you know those, you'll be able to work with v14 when a not-so-messed-up release is made.
I urge everyone with a decent knowledge of Flyff developing to work on these files and make releases as often as possible. It's amazing that private servers are ahead of eFlyff, and it makes me giddy at how much Gala-Net is undoubtedly raging.
If I'm ages behind on my information, please correct me ^^
Thanks~
