Lost Saga source, 2019 (213 heroes)

Developer snapshot of the 2019 Lost Saga source (213LSK), shared by the LosaDev community for study and private-server development. Access tier: Public.

• Servers, client, engine, launcher (LSAutoUpgrade), LSWebBroker and tools, with the prebuilt libraries needed to build them.
• Database: base scripts from 2012 in sql\20120504\ plus dated feature patches (2017 to 2019) in DB\.
• No server config set and no ls_query.ini yet (see the wiki for a starting point).
• The matching game client (a modified Gemscool Indonesia client, 2019) is a separate download, not in Git.

Layout: solutions in win\ (server and library projects in win\projects\), code in src\, libraries in lib\, billing-server extras in extra\, video/audio SDKs in etc\Library\.

Build

1. Install Visual Studio 2010 SP1 (Professional or higher, toolset v100), the DirectX SDK (June 2010) and Boost 1.47 and 1.50 with static-runtime libraries (-mt-s, -mt-sgd).
2. Create Version.h next to every TSvnVersion.tmpl and disable the TortoiseSVN pre-build step, for example:

   MSBuild win\ls_gamesvr.sln /p:Configuration=Release /p:Platform=Win32 /p:PreBuildEventUseInBuild=false
   

3. Build in this order: base libraries, ioFreeType/io3DEngine, the ls_* servers, then LSClient. Use Debug or Release.

Server output goes to build\zone_dev\ or build\zone_dist\, one level above this folder.
