Upgrading server revision

Hello Rune-server,

Can anybody tell me what needs to be changed when upgrading the cache to a newer revision?

Is there some sort of indexes or?
What about the variables (for the client) from the latest release?

Any help regarding upgrading server revision is appreciated, thanks.

And merry xmas

I've never personally tried using a higher version cache with a lower version client but it sounds very involved.

If you want to use a newer version client with your server, you're going to have to pretty much redo all packet encoding/decoding to work with the new client. If your server is designed properly, you shouldn't need to do much more unless you're doing a crazy upgrade (say 317 to a 718) then you may need to start sending additional data to the client to ensure your content still works.

Basically, and the necessary protocol changes, such as JS5 and login

I'm new to all this private server stuff, and I just want to find out how a basic server ticks, and wondered how to upgrade the revision.

Thanks for your answer :)

You need to change many things, in general:
1. All RSA & JS5 protocols for simple loading (including parameters)
2. All packets (order and types + new fields + renaming all the numbers to be the correct ones)
3. Including masks (localNpcUpdate and localPlayerUpdate) and their writing
4. All cs2 scripts numbers and args (it can change, hopefully not)
5. All vars (definitely change, you need the cs2 scripts know which is actually get change)
6. Interfaces number including components (I hate those)

After all these changes your server should work for the updated version. Just note that this is usually take too much time to do all these so you usually prioritize some features first. (I updated 876->887 and got stuck with the vars and interfaces, never was able to get the bank to work cause of those)
