They are used to test new content and features, before they get<br/> installed on the normal servers. When the name "Sakray" is used alone, it<br/> typically refers to the kRO Sakray server. Sakray servers are always<br/> accessible via a separate client, which is available through a separate<br/> download.</p> <h2 id="history">History</h2> <h3 id="renewal">Renewal</h3> <p>Gravity discontinued the original Sakray development after June 17, 2009,<br/> where the last Sakray client was released, and replaced it with Sakray<br/> Renewal, which is mostly referred to as "Renewal" or "RE".</p> <p>On kRO, on July 28th Gravity set up a new test server for their Ragnarok<br/> Renewal Project. The Renewal is a full scale re-balancing of Ragnarok. The<br/> plan is to make RO more accessible to users, and more in line with modern day<br/> MMORPG's. In addition, the new mechanics are intended so that they can easily<br/> add and improve on current game content (such as 3rd jobs) without destroying<br/> game balance.</p> <p>The intention for renewing Ragnarok Online, was partially the decreasing<br/> interest in the game, due to it's age and lack of features present in latest<br/> MMORPG, such as tabbed chat or safe skill point distribution, which were part<br/> of the first round of renewal, the interface renewal. Further changes include<br/> an overhaul in the stat, damage and experience calculation.</p> <p>Schedule for tests of Renewal Server:</p> <ul> <li> <p>Closed Beta Test </p> <p>Start Date: 2008/07/30<br/> Server Name: Sakray Renewal Test Server<br/> Participation: Accepted testers<br/> Test Period: 2008/07/30 ~ 2008/08/27 (4 weeks)</p> </li> <li> <p>Open Beta Test </p> <p>Start Date: 2008/08/27<br/> Server Name: Sakray Renewal Test Server<br/> Participation: Anyone<br/> Test Period: 2008/08/27 ~ 2008/09/24 (4 weeks)</p> </li> </ul> <h2 id="usage">Usage</h2> <p><a class="" href="../Hexed">Hexing</a> kRO Sakray clients are the most used clients with<br/> <a class="alink" href="/p/hercules/wiki/Hercules/">[Hercules]</a>, although a few people prefer using kRO (live server) clients or<br/> clients from different service providers.</p> <p><span>[Category:Basics]</span></p></div>BrynnerMon, 20 Feb 2023 05:03:16 -0000https://sourceforge.net6e7f97b3fb55ed31c17c5f613669c9ce29dee02f
