==Introduction==
If you are a new user, this is an easy guide to help you setup Openkore and make you start botting in no time.
If you are a new user, this is an easy guide to help you setup Openkore and make you start botting in no time.
Actually, Openkore is not really that hard to setup. It is in fact one of the easiest bot programs to use.


'''''Note.''''' Actually, Openkore is not really that hard to setup. It is in fact one of the easiest bot programs to use.
This guide discusses in detail each step in setting up Openkore first-time. You start by downloading the required files, installing the packages, checking your server details, doing some basic configuration and then starting the program.


This guide discusses in detail each step in setting up Openkore first-time. You start by downloading the required files, installing the packages, doing some basic configuration, checking your server details, and then starting the program.
==Downloading Files==
The very first thing you need to do is download latest version of Openkore main program. You get download's link on the [http://wiki.openkore.com/index.php?title=Links Links page]


On the [http://collectskin.com/openkore/ downloads page], you will find five available downloads:
# openkore_ready.zip - contains all the packages (control, field and tables pack) that are necessary to run Openkore
# openkore.zip - contains only the source
# confpack.zip - contains the control pack, main configuration files
# tablepack.zip - contains the tables pack, mini database for Openkore
# fieldspack.zip - contains th fields pack, fields files


==Required Files==
Most users will want to download '''openkore_ready.zip''', as it contains almost everything that is necessary to run Openkore.
;'''Step 1:''' Downloading the latest Openkore
:The very first thing you need to do is download Openkore. You can get a copy from the download page of the Openkore website.


::There are four required packages that you need to have:
To run openkore, you need to have perl installed '''OR''' if you are using Windows, you can [http://misc.openkore.com/ download Openkore binaries] and use it to run openkore without the need of perl.
::#Openkore binaries for Microsoft Windows
::#Field pack
::#Default configuration files
::#Default table files


'''''Note.''''' If you are using Linux, download the Openkore source code instead of the binaries (it is under the Other Downloads section in the same page).
* Linux users will have to compile openkore and run directly in perl.


==Installation==
==Extracting Files==
;'''Step 2:''' Extracting the Openkore packages
Extract the contents of the main program in your hard drive. You can choose any location you like (for example, "C:\").
:Extract the contents of the main program package in your hard drive. You can choose any location you like (for example, "C:\").


:;Notes:
* You will need an extractor program, you can use [http://www.rarlab.com/ Winrar] or [http://www.winzip.com/index.htm Winzip]
::*Make sure that you extract the files using the folder structure saved in the zip file.
::*If you are using WinRAR, select the radio button "Extract relative paths" in the Advanced Tab of the Extraction path and options dialog box.
::*If you are using Winzip, check the checkbox "Use folder names" in the Extract dialog box.


After extracting the main program, you will have a folder named '''openkore_ready''' or '''openkore''' (depending on the file you downloaded). If you chose to extract it on "C:\" for example, the absolute path would be "C:\openkore_ready". This will be your main bot folder.


After extracting the main program, you will have a folder named openkore-x.x.x (where the "x.x.x" is the Openkore version). If you chose to extract it on "C:\" for example, the absolute path would be "C:\openkore-x.x.x". This will be your main bot folder.
* You can rename your main bot folder if you want to.


'''''Note.''''' You can rename your main bot folder if you want to.
If you download the source only, extract the rest of the zip files (config pack, field pack and table pack) in your main bot folder. After extracting all the packages, you should have four subfolders in your main bot folder.


Extract the rest of the zip files (config pack, field pack and table pack) in your main bot folder. After extracting all the packages, you should have four subfolders in your main bot folder.
Your openkore directory structure should be something like this.
: [[Image:Folderstructure.PNG|Your openkore directory structure should be something like this.]]


: Your openkore directory structure should be something like this.
==Setting Server Details==
: [[Image:Quickstart_folders.gif|Your openkore directory structure should be something like this.]]
;You can skip this step if your are playing on officials, because latest versions of Openkore already have an updated server information for official RO servers that allows you to easily connect without having to configure anything.


==Basic Configuration==
Openkore needs the server's information before it can connect with it.
;'''Step 3:''' Configuring some basic options
If you want to check if Openkore already supports your server, open your main bot folder, browse to the tables subfolder, and open servers.txt. Look for the name of your server in the entries found in this file. The server names are enclosed in square brackets "[ ]".
:This step is optional. You can skip it and follow the next step to start logging in to your RO server.


:Kore will run fine for most jobs without changing anything in the default configurations. By default, Kore will make your character walk randomly around the map, attack all monsters that it sees using it's weapon in close range, pick up items dropped by monsters it killed, and sit when its HP goes below 40%.
If you can't find your server in the list (or if you are having problems connecting to the master server), you have to figure out your server details first before continuing with the next step. Follow the steps provided in the [[Connectivity Guide]] and [[Packet Length Extractor]].


:If you have the Teleport Skill or you have some spare Fly Wings in your inventory, Kore will automatically teleport when it is near death. It will also cancel all incoming deals, as well as party and guild join requests.
==Starting Openkore==
Run the application file "start.exe" inside your main bot folder.


:While the default behavior is good for most jobs, there are some other basic options that you might want to check first.
The good thing about Openkore is that it detects if you haven't yet configured your login options in config.txt (i.e. username, password, master, server, and char). If you leave your login options empty, Openkore will guide you in properly setting these options at run-time.


'''''Note.''''' I would like to keep this guide as simple as possible. The easiest characters to start botting with are those that uses weapons because the default configuration is set up for such characters. If you want to bot a character that relies primarily on attack skills (e.g. Mage), the configuration would be a bit complicated, but not necessarily hard. I recommend that you read the rest of the manual first, especially config.txt, to help you configure your bot. I, therefore, don't recommend using a Mage as your first time bot character unless you know what you are doing.
* If you are using Linux, run Openkore from the source code. See the instructions on [[How to run OpenKore]] in Linux.


'''Quick tutorial on configuration editing:'''
=== Loading configuration files===
The control folder inside your bot folder contains a set of text files that you edit (using a text editor) to set configurations that defines Kore's behavior.
At startup, Openkore will load all necessary configuration and table files:
The file config.txt among others is the main configuration file. It is where you configure most of Kore's behavior. It is basically composed of lines of texts each containing a configuration key name (the first word in each line) and the corresponding value.
attackAuto 2
In the example above, attackAuto is the configuration key name, and 2 is the value. When editing config.txt, you only set or modify the values. You must not change the configuration key names. Save the text file after editing.

Open your main bot folder, browse to the control subfolder, and open the file config.txt. There is quite a number of config keys that you will find inside this file, but just ignore all of them for now exept for the ones I will mention below.
=== Setting your username and password ===
Openkore will prompt you for your username and password:


;1. Do you want to stay in a certain map?
Enter Username:
:Kore can make your character stay in a certain map you specified. Look for the configuration key lockMap and set the value to the name of the map you want to stay into. For example, prt_fild08.
_


:If you are not inside your lockMap, Kore will try to walk back to it. If you die (hopefully, you won't), Kore will walk back to your lockMap after you sit to regenerate your HP.
Enter Password:
_


;2. Are you using a ranged weapon?
Type your username and password in the console.  
:If you are using a ranged weapon (e.g. Bow), it is important to set the configuration key attackDistance to your attack range (specified in number of blocks). A value of 10 may be good, but you can still increase it depending on some other factors (like the Vulture's Eye Skill).  


:If you're not sure what your attack range is, simply set attackDistanceAuto to 1. This will auto-detect the correct value for attackDistance depending on your weapon.  
* This will only happen if you didn't set your [[username]] and [[password]] on [[:Category:config.txt|config.txt]].
* Kore will automatically set these options in [[:Category:config.txt|config.txt]] so you won't have to specify it again everytime you run Openkore.


:That's about the most basic concerns you should consider for now. If you want to play with some of the other options, I recommend that you read the config.txt section of this manual first. There are also some configuration guides that you might want to look at in the Openkore forum.
=== Choosing a Master Server===
Openkore will show you a numbered list of known RO servers.

:You would most likely not do anything in this step, '''if you play on official servers.'''
Choose the master server where you want to bot in and type the corresponding number in the console.  


:The latest versions of Openkore already have an updated server information for official RO servers that allows you to easily connect without having to configure anything firsthand. It's as easy as simply running the freshly downloaded (and extracted) program.
* If you have previously set your [[master]] server, this step will not appear.
* Kore will automatically set this option ([[master]]) in [[:Category:config.txt|config.txt]] so you won't have to specify it again everytime you run Openkore.  
* If you can't find your server in the displayed list, read the fourth step in this guide again. Exit the program for now by closing the console window. Restart this step after you have properly configured your server details.


:If you want to check if Openkore already supports your server, open your main bot folder, browse to the tables subfolder, and open servers.txt. Look for the name of your server in the entries found in this file. The server names are enclosed in square brackets "[ ]".
=== Connecting to Master Server ===
If you have your [[username]], [[password]] and [[master]] server properly set in [[:Category:config.txt|config.txt]], Kore will now login to the Master Server using your login details. Your account information will be retrieved and a list of available game login servers from the master server will be displayed:


:If you can't find your server in the list (or if you are having problems connecting to the master server), you have to figure out your server details first before continuing with the next step. Follow the steps provided in the Guide to figuring out Ragnarok Online server details. You can also find some good tips here.

Introduction

If you are a new user, this is an easy guide to help you setup Openkore and make you start botting in no time. Actually, Openkore is not really that hard to setup. It is in fact one of the easiest bot programs to use.

This guide discusses in detail each step in setting up Openkore first-time. You start by downloading the required files, installing the packages, checking your server details, doing some basic configuration and then starting the program.

Downloading Files

The very first thing you need to do is download latest version of Openkore main program. You get download's link on the Links page

On the downloads page, you will find five available downloads:

  1. openkore_ready.zip - contains all the packages (control, field and tables pack) that are necessary to run Openkore
  2. openkore.zip - contains only the source
  3. confpack.zip - contains the control pack, main configuration files
  4. tablepack.zip - contains the tables pack, mini database for Openkore
  5. fieldspack.zip - contains th fields pack, fields files

Most users will want to download openkore_ready.zip, as it contains almost everything that is necessary to run Openkore.

To run openkore, you need to have perl installed OR if you are using Windows, you can download Openkore binaries and use it to run openkore without the need of perl.

  • Linux users will have to compile openkore and run directly in perl.

Extracting Files

Extract the contents of the main program in your hard drive. You can choose any location you like (for example, "C:\").

  • You will need an extractor program, you can use Winrar or Winzip

After extracting the main program, you will have a folder named openkore_ready or openkore (depending on the file you downloaded). If you chose to extract it on "C:\" for example, the absolute path would be "C:\openkore_ready". This will be your main bot folder.

  • You can rename your main bot folder if you want to.

If you download the source only, extract the rest of the zip files (config pack, field pack and table pack) in your main bot folder. After extracting all the packages, you should have four subfolders in your main bot folder.

Your openkore directory structure should be something like this.

Your openkore directory structure should be something like this.

Setting Server Details

You can skip this step if your are playing on officials, because latest versions of Openkore already have an updated server information for official RO servers that allows you to easily connect without having to configure anything.

Openkore needs the server's information before it can connect with it. If you want to check if Openkore already supports your server, open your main bot folder, browse to the tables subfolder, and open servers.txt. Look for the name of your server in the entries found in this file. The server names are enclosed in square brackets "[ ]".

If you can't find your server in the list (or if you are having problems connecting to the master server), you have to figure out your server details first before continuing with the next step. Follow the steps provided in the Connectivity Guide and Packet Length Extractor.

Starting Openkore

Run the application file "start.exe" inside your main bot folder.

The good thing about Openkore is that it detects if you haven't yet configured your login options in config.txt (i.e. username, password, master, server, and char). If you leave your login options empty, Openkore will guide you in properly setting these options at run-time.

  • If you are using Linux, run Openkore from the source code. See the instructions on How to run OpenKore in Linux.

Loading configuration files

At startup, Openkore will load all necessary configuration and table files:

Setting your username and password

Openkore will prompt you for your username and password: 

Enter Username: 
_ 

Enter Password:
_

Type your username and password in the console.

  • This will only happen if you didn't set your username and password on config.txt.
  • Kore will automatically set these options in config.txt so you won't have to specify it again everytime you run Openkore.

Choosing a Master Server

Openkore will show you a numbered list of known RO servers.

Please choose a master server to connect to.
----------------------------------------
Enter your answer:
_

Choose the master server where you want to bot in and type the corresponding number in the console.

  • If you have previously set your master server, this step will not appear.
  • Kore will automatically set this option (master) in config.txt so you won't have to specify it again everytime you run Openkore.
  • If you can't find your server in the displayed list, read the fourth step in this guide again. Exit the program for now by closing the console window. Restart this step after you have properly configured your server details.

Connecting to Master Server

If you have your username, password and master server properly set in config.txt, Kore will now login to the Master Server using your login details. Your account information will be retrieved and a list of available game login servers from the master server will be displayed: 

Connecting to Account Server...
Connecting (127.0.0.1:6900)... [Mar 7 23:35:11 2010.78] connected
-----------Account Info------------

            16391      07 40 00 00
-----------------------------------
--------- Servers ----------
#   Name                  Users  IP              Port
0   Openkore Test Server               0      127.0.0.1       6121
-------------------------------
Closing connection to Account Server
Disconnecting (127.0.0.1:6900)... disconnected
_

If Openkore couldn't connect, then this error might appear: 

Connecting to Master Server...
Connecting (127.0.0.1:6900)... couldn't connect: Unknown error xxxx
_

The reason for this may be one of the following:

  1. You are not connected to the internet.
  2. Your server is currently down, or under server maintenance.
  3. The server details is wrong. Read the Setting Server Details again.

Choosing your server

Openkore will prompt you for a server: 

--------- Servers ----------
#         Name            Users  IP              Port
0   Openkore Test Server              0      127.0.0.1       6121
-------------------------------
Closing connection to Master Server
Disconnecting (127.0.0.1:6900)... disconnected
Choose your server.  Enter the server number:
_

Choose the server where you want to bot in and type the corresponding number in the console.

  • If you have previously set your server, this step will not appear.
  • Kore will automatically set this option (server) in config.txt so you won't have to specify it again everytime you run Openkore.

Choosing your character

If you have your server specified in config.txt, Kore will now login to the server. All your available characters will be listed:
