Frequently Asked Questions

If you have question that's not listed here, feel free to post it on the Discord (Link at main site), otherwise go to rAthena Forum for support.


Q: I recieve an Error window with gibberish in it.

A1: That might be related to the Official Anti-Cheat Program used in your client. For that you need to use the fixed CDClient.dll from Nemo or from WARP and overwrite the one in your folder, which prevents the loading of such program.


Q: My client exe's still using Korean text/gibberish text?

A1: All files from data folder of this project must be packed in grf format (ex: english.grf) and listed in .ini file (default: data.ini) in your client folder.
