Last edited by Lifefire; 19-02-20 at 03:21 AM.
ok i placed folder Data and cliluascript inside a folder called Data and then copyed my update file inside that , Still did not change .... i guess since i have never edited these before i have to be doing something wrong .... I have noticed that the data.fdb file is 3 times as large as the orginal is this normal?
what todo to change the festival:
1. you need to update the "specialEventFilter" inside "localization.ini" inside "update.inf"
&
2. you need to add an ";" in front of the festival ID you wanna run inside of "disabletag_XX.ini" (xx means your language setup!) inside " data" inside data.fdb.
I`m not trying to explain how to get the changes done since your problems focus on where to place the files!
The disabletag_XX.ini needs to be inside the data folder which is is your default game directory!
(ex.
c:/RoM/client.exe
c:/RoM/fdb/data.fdb
c:/RoM/data <- this is the folder you are looking for! (you need to create this folder)
c:/RoM/update.inf
& for the server:
c:/RoMServer/Zones/zone.exe
c:/RoMServer/resources/fdb/
c:/RoMServer/resource/wdb/
c:/RoMServer/resource/data/) <- this is the folder you are looking for! (you need to create this folder)
Well and since the update.inf is just a zip you have to make your changes inside the "localization.ini", save it, close the file and 7zip will automatically ask you if you wanna replace the old file version with yours.

thanks Mollo, I made a Guide for others hope it helps ....
Hope i helped and made it clear for others...Code:I will tell how to change Festival event step by step. 4 things you need to do to change events and make it easyier. 1.unpack file disabletag_XX.ini from data.fdb,(XX means the country code you use. Use Program called FDB_Extractor2.exe) 2.open the file and find which festival you want to edit,and write a ; before the number. Example: If I want helloween,change the code from ;南瓜節 12 to ;南瓜節 ;12 and save it. 3.Put disabletag_XX.ini in a new folder name data by itself. 4.Copy this data folder to both server side and client side. Server side:put in Resource folder. c:/Runewaker/resource/data/) <- Will be Used to change events, (you need to create this folder) Client side:put in game folder. c:/Client/data <- Will be Used to change events, (you need to create this folder) 5.find update.inf in client, Open with Winzip extract the file localization.ini Use (password:tarubK2Vy5gT8Xo6) for the password, fix the specialEventFilter= [EventFilterTitle] with one of the events below (example: specialEventFilter=chrismas). when your done changeing it to the event you like right click localization.ini Hit Winzip"Add to file" when it pops up change the Add to archive to point to update.inf in client folder hit add, In winzip click Tools - click encrypt zip file use this password (tarubK2Vy5gT8Xo6) close and recopy this file back to client. 6.find your country and edit this line: specialEventFilter=the code of Festival you want. and yes you can add more then one! Here is the code I found STILL WORKING ON THESE HEY HELP PLEASE COMMENT!! specialEventFilter=SpringRain Festival ;6 ;specialEventFilter=Snowflake ;2 95% ;specialEventFilter=Carnival of Fire and Song ;3 - (Festival of Fire) 100% ;specialEventFilter=valentine ;4 - (Flower Festival) 95% ;specialEventFilter=Costume ;5 80% ;specialEventFilter=SpringRain Festival ;6 100% ;specialEventFilter=music festival ;7 100% ;specialEventFilter=christmas ; 8 you also need 2 with this ... ;specialEventFilter=weave ;9 ;specialEventFilter=FairyTale ;10 ;specialEventFilter=JuiceFestival ;11 ;specialEventFilter=halloween ;12 ;specialEventFilter=Thanksgiving ;13 ;specialEventFilter=Skillcraft ;648- (Crafting Festival) ;specialEventFilter=NewYear ; ;specialEventFilter=Frog ; 60 ;specialEventFilter=EventTool-NPC ;629 ;specialEventFilter=EventTool-SpawnMob ;630 ;specialEventFilter= If I want halloween,edit like this: specialEventFilter=halloween 7. After this is done make sure you have the following code turned on in Both of the NEW Data folders you created in Cleint and Server. here you can see we are using specialEventFilter=SpringRain Festival ;6 <-- the 6 is what you need to turn on in the disabletag_XX.ini so in both files you would change both to match ;Spring festival ;6 remmeber the ; <-- Means ON 8 as for you Data.fdb you need to change your disabletag_XX.ini based on your country to have NO events turned ON ... This way the server and cleint when loaded will see the Data folder and Use the file inside .... 9. you are ready to start it all up after this you only need to change the 3 locations, Cleint Data folder , Server Data folder, and you need change localization.ini your client and server Country..... RESTART the server and you should be good....

Not really, there are some uncertainties you didn't cover.
Do you mean the country setting in client.exe.ini? If yes, make that clear. Not everyone knows right away where this is stored. And where is it stored on the server? Does it even need to be changed on the server?XX means the country code you use
Do you mean Winrar? Winrar has no "add to file", only "add to archive" and it cannot target .inf files unless you change the filter to All Files. Even then, if you encrypt it with the correct password, it gives an error saying the archive is probably damaged. That step is very confusing.Hit Winzip"Add to file" when it pops up change the Add to archive to point to update.inf in client folder hit add, In winzip click Tools - click encrypt zip file use this password (tarubK2Vy5gT8Xo6) close and recopy this file back to client.
Again, this is confusing. Do you mean the specialEventFilter in the localization.ini and the event number in the correct disabletag.ini? If yes, specify that.After this is done make sure you have the following code turned on in Both of the NEW Data folders you created in Cleint and Server.
This is confusing as well. What do you mean exactly? What's the third location? How/What to change?need to change the 3 locations, Cleint Data folder , Server Data folder, and you need change localization.ini your client and server Country
It would be extremely helpful if someone could provide clear and precise instructions for this
I'm not even a native speaker lol. But if I had trouble putting things in an actually understandable way, I would ask someone with better knowledge to assist with that. It's like trying to explain how to swap an engine block but instead of descriptive text, you give the person in need a lego-style guide booklet.
It may be simple indeed but the way you put it, it's simply and downright confusing.
Edit:
Another thing you didn't clarify (and neither did danny in his thread actually) is this part:
...How the heck do I pack the ini file back into Data.fdb? FDBExtractor2 can only extract files. I can doubleclick the file to open it in my temp folder but simply saving it via notepad has no effect because it's not replacing the one inside Data.fdb.as for you Data.fdb you need to change your disabletag_XX.ini based on your country to have NO events turned ON
Edit:
Here's what I tried with the localization.ini

I deleted 613 valentine festival from disable tag. What name should I open this event in update.ini? valentine does not work. must have a different name
Any change you do won't have any effect because you cannot edit the disabletag.ini within data.fdb.
And until someone figures out or comes around to share that kind of info, any instructions about festival changes like the ones above remain useless because they don't explain that important step.
Same with the localization.ini within update.inf which I tried myself on before.
@xSpeedx
Are you saying I can't open the festival?
Changing festival IDs requires opening the ini file within data.fdb. but as you can see on the above posts, there is no way to actually edit the file stored inside the fdb because you cannot repack it. I tried the FDB repacking tools I found on the section here as well and it didn't work correctly.
@xSpeedx
but there are friends who open the festivals frankly, I think I used the wrong special event filter = bla bla for valentina
Probably. But as I said: until someone can provide clear instructions covering the process, it's worthless trying if you lack a working FDB repacking tool.
Flower-Event is the one you want. Indeed it's a bit tricky to change the festivals since you also need the rom.exe (I'm not 100% sure about that) for the active event, since its showing some graphic errors otherwise. (for example you have flower activated and see halloween graphics everywhere).
On my server there is snowflake, i'm not sure if i want to change it ever again ^^
There is plenty of information on this forum to change the festival, changing the disabletag should not be the hard bit. There is various tools that can do it, and you do no need to repack it back into the client. You can run it through a data folder as was already explained by Mollo on a previous thread, its then simply a case of changing the localisation folder inside the update.inf.
