A very little few of you may wonder what about even older versions of L2J? Well, by the C2-C3 era L2J were hosted using a free service (OpenSVN). Before that there were a CVS, but I’m too young in the project to provide further details about it. In the beginning OpenSVN services were good enough but our increasing traffic and bandwidth usage forced us to setup our own server (which costs us money, tnx for your donations btw ). For some reason beyond my memories, our source code were dumped from the old svn to the new one but changeset/revision numbering were set back to zero on purpose. If you’re really really interested in the code and its authors whose names should not be forgotten, here’s the SVN and its accompanying Trac. There are also some ancient binaries published in our Files section at Sourceforge.

Now switching topic, our latest release (Gracia Epilogue) won’t be added to the nightly build until it’s acceptably tested for a little while, unstable nightlies are still being built on Gracia Final. Wait a little bit for Epilogue nightlies or build GE on your own, and enjoy!

L2j Server v2.9 with Gracia Final Support has now been updated into the Core and DP SVN tracs.

HOWEVER!! BE WARNED

Please note that Gracia Final support is still not complete and that updating your server to the latest version on the main trunk branches will not necessarily be the most stable version that you can use it actually its still in a very early BETA stage, so it can cause unexpectable problems on your live server, its mostly for private testing and developing purposes.

If you want to maintain a stable server for public usage then stay on the L2_GameServer_T2.2 branch until the main trunk has become fully stable, we hope that in 2 or 3 weeks obtain a 90% of stability bugs fixed.

The raw release of Gracia Final T2.3 its just for server compatiblity, then please be aware that because of this you do not need to go posting tickets on the trac for every feature of final that is not working and for any bugs that you find to do with gracia final, for example: “This xyz feature isnt working”, “xyz Skill isnt working”, “I cant enter to this xyz area”, “where is xyz stuff?”

It will be better to discuss any bugs or feature requests for Gracia Final T2.3 on the forum at this stage until we get this version more stable in order to prevent clogging up of the trac with tickets about things we are still working on or not-a-bug reports.

We would also ask for the another community trac-log readers to close any duplicated/not-a-bug/fake tickets that you may find, this would help us a lot, but please do it right and not just for fun.

Anyway we hope you enjoy the new release and I’d just like to thank ALL of the dev team that has been working so hard on getting this huge release ready for public use. They have been doing a great job!!!
