v16 is a pretty cool client

Seems to be a later version of KMSB, around v1.77 which matches close with the timestamp. Seems 3rd job is finished, trunk no longer has the alpha HUD, and it seems gateway.img got added. May actually be earliest client of any region now with gateway.img.

Here's some bonus, I found these two patchers also:

CMS V56toV58 Patcher:

Idk if they help since we lack all clients from V55 to V58. I wonder if there's a tool to extract content from patchers?

All the above files are from old CDs(except for V15toV16 patcher). Spent quite a lot of resource finding them.

Does anyone still have THMS v0.96 localhost? I really need it

 

[Kimberly]

Today is quite a special day. Thanks to an anonymous person I am able to release a new KMS beta

A new oldest KMSB version have been found, which is much older than the previous oldest version of KMSB, which was 1.21. This is also as far as I know the very first version before the official release in Korea, which was on April 29, 2003.

v1.11 - 2003-04-27 07:06:44 UTC

Older by a month compared to 1.21. Don't let this 1 month fool you though, this thing has massive differences. But even more importantly, it has a different song used in Kerning City that pre-dates the finalized version of Kerning City (the new one is completely missing).

This song is named "NothingLeft" located in BGM01.img and actually is coded in the .wz files to run on Kerning City. Previously there was only a single piece of very old design documents that reference this song, and also mentions there it was used in Kerning City.

After digging for a few hours together with someone else, here's some of the more intereting changes for this client

- 1 completely different song used in Kerning City, most likely made by CODASOUND (BGM01 > NothingLeft)
- Channels didn't exist yet
- Maple Island barely released at this point, and has some differences
- 2nd job is almost completely missing and definitely not released yet
- Teleporters that keep you in the same map fully black screen
- Sleepywood still got the "snow" effect completely intact (Info > Snow node)
- Cash Shop images are present, but the code to enter it in anyway whatsoever is completely missing, nor are there any nodes to display them
- Numerous maps are missing, such as Henesys Hunting ground 2 and 3
- Head node didn't exist yet, meaning damage numbers are sometimes too low
- Much and much more minor details

HOW!!!! big find

 

[Kimberly]

HOW!!!! big find

It indeed is. I also want to make a small correction. I did mention this is a Closed Beta client, but it seems more likely this is "v1"/pre-load version of release. This client is dated April 27, 2003, and MapleStory officially released (they use this as anniversary date as well) in korea on April 29, 2003.

We have possibility found the lowest and earliest we can go through official means. Earlier exists, but I have very strong doubts that CD's or other form of media was made for the Closed Beta period, but I've been surprised before.

Also this may seen confusing, since we like to call those periods of clients "KMSB" but technically the clients after April 29, even though it still uses the alpha UI and everything, is already considered "Release", even though we as community like to call it KMSB still until v1.2.1.

Just a matter of time til this client appears (hope so)
Also, is it possible to know how was this client found? I know some were found in NetPower or other magazines, but this one is rare. Or was it hidden on the person's PC somewhere haha

Ah, forgot to ask, what document are you referring to?

Anyways, thank you for the release, it was so cool

That client is definitely the end game. Its still a shame it goes so far back until we finally see some true map layout differences. As for the docs thing, I kind of mislabled that as its just a piece of document that listed BGM's and nothing more. I don't really have this, but that's what I was told, so I will edit my other post so it is a bit more clear.

But yeah, that screenshot from you, is the true KMS Closed Beta, and people speculate the very map you see on that screenshot is where your journey started back then.

I have currently no info how v1.11 is found because the person wishes to remain Anonymous.

Does anyone have the EMS clients..? All the download links have gone corrupted

Kimberly ? Sorry to bother you but I thought you might have it since you're Dutch like me
I grew up playing EMS and I wanted to archive the EMS ones before on my own computer because these old versions are what I played directly so it's very nostalgic
Do you have them by any chance?

Is there any KMS Beta v1.11 server / files?

 

[oldies.returns]

Hello everybody, nice work you've been doing here, I really appreciate it.

I was wondering if anyone has any of the KMS versions between 1.2.293 and 1.2.300? I have the patches from 1.2.293 and I wanted to recreate all the following versions.

if you failed to use patch file, you can continue from KMS v2.343/344.

This is going be a slow process, but I am going attempt fix the download links once more with the help of Riremito's

They will also link to archive.org like their site, and hopefully with working links people are more motiviated to also want to share to this archive that is still missing. We are always still looking for missing versions.

Slow process because its tedious as hell
