Hello all,
I'm trying to figure out how it used to be possible to bypass the old torrent patcher from the official Metin2 and start the client without a patcher.
The reason why I want to start without the torrent patcher is that I have created a language pack for the official Metin2 Brazil and the community often has the problem to use the language pack because the patcher updates the changed files again. I can't figure out what the patcher does in addition to generating the key using the date/time.
I already have a batch script with which I get the client started partially without problems. However, I must have started the client every 2 minutes once with the normal patcher, because this still changes 4 in my opinion dummy files in the client. If I started the client at 15:00 with the patcher normally, then I am able to start the client with my batch file without the patcher until 15:02. After exactly 2 minutes I have to run the patcher again to make it work with my batch file again. I see that after each patch operation the following files are processed:
/lib/xml/dom/minidomer.pyc
/lib/xml/parser/invers.pyc
/pack/metin2_patch_nodelar.eix
/pack/metin2_patch_nodelar.epk
At least the .eix and .epk files I can't unpack with PackMaker unfortunately.
The batch script looks like this:
Does anyone know what the patcher does additionally and why I can't start the client with my batch file after two minutes?
