I. Intro
Everyone has encountered these errors. Errors updating sakray, long gibberish texts of a strange sort, missing files. I am here now, to attempt to help people whom get these errors. This is my first guide. Most likley/definantly my last guide. I hope this has and will be helpful to you both now and in the future.

II. Read Read Read Read Read!
Now, you find a problem within your gaming. You say to yourself \\\"WTF HAX TIS SUXORZ!\\\", please I would like to urge you to read the forums. Read everywhere on the forums. You never know, your answer could be within people's posts. It has happened before. Before you blindly rant on and on about how the server sucks and how it's the servers fault that you cannot play, please read through the forums and what people have said to perhaps find the answer to your question and fix /your/ mistake.

III. Updating Sakray.
Now usually this may be a problem for some people. Updating Sakray. Well, Sakray is quite the little b**** when it comes to updating sometimes. Why? Because it seems to have a heart attack every time it has uploaded more than 50megabytes or so. Quite bad. The usual solution to these problems would have to be to download and install a /newer/ version of kRO Sakray. Beleive me, this usually solves most to all problems when it comes to updating Sakray.

IV. Missing Files
Now I know that some of you might've gotten a message when starting the game such as \\\"Cannot find Bink32.dll\\\" or something weird such as that. Well, it seems that the problem is that you eighther did not downlad and install kRO, or you downloaded it, but did not install it in the same folder as your private server folder thing. kRO comes with just about all these missing .dll files that you are in need to find. Rest assured, if you download kRO and install it in the same exact folder as where you installed your Private Server data, you will find all the .dll files which you seek.

V. Registering.
When registering, please look at the main page, read through everything, and if you do not find what you seek, look within the forums. Each server has their own little way of making people register. Sadly though, instead of investigating, we whine and complain at the very first sign of trouble. I do beleive that barely anyone will read my guide eighther, but if it helps the people and keeps karma away, then so be it. Please remember, each server has their own little way of making people register. Investigate both the main site and the forums. They should both hold the answer which you seek.

VI. Downloading the actual files.
Some people seem to have problems downloading. Here are some ways to solve those errors.

Download Accelerators - If you are using a download accelerator such as \\\"FlashGet\\\", that may be your problem. Certain downloads seem to have a problem when you use this so called \\\"Flash Get\\\" and other download accelerators. Perhaps uninstalling this \\\"FlashGet\\\" might solve your problem.

Filefront - Filefront downloads usually ship you off to the main page. People usually say \\\"WTF!? HAXORZ!\\\" to themselves out loud and their mother beats them with a stick for their lack of grammer and for giving granmother a heart attack from random shouting. What you usually need to do, is simply register for File Front, then try the download again. There you have it, an instant slow download.

Download Fails - Usually a download manager fixes this problem. Such things as \\\"Get Right\\\", which resumes downloads if they fail, no matter how long they might take. Usually, an easy way of attaining this \\\"Get Right\\\" would be to search for it on www.google.com. Although this might also be a source for problems, although it will put an end to failed downloads.

VII. Long ramblings of gibberish.
Every now and again, we get errors which contains a message. Messages that contain long ramblings of random gibberish, with \\\"Novice\\\" or \\\"Priest\\\" or whatever character class you errored with at the very bottom. \\\"HOU DOO I STUP THISZORZKATES!?!?!?!?!??!!1!!!11!!1!!\\\" you ask yourself in a loud tone on the forums and to other people as you spam Private Messages until banishment. Fear not, I have the solution. Simply update sakray, or get a new sakray, reinstall, and update it. Trust me, updating solves just about every problem. Updating the /newest/ version of sakray should fix 99.9% of these problems.

VIII. Closing
In closing, I would like to state that I hope that I have solved your problems and have answered most of your questions. Hopefully, this might also lessen the amount of \\\"I GOTZ A PROBLEMZORZZZZ\\\" posts and has cleared up all common errors. I thank you for reading this guide. *bows* Arigato.

IX. Credits.
To all of my experience on the forums. Also to myself for making this guide. And to my Gabrielle, whom I love and adore and kept me alive long enough to write this guide. And to smokie the racoon thing, who gives me something to kill when i'm bored, and to Matthew Reilly, whom gives me something to read and kept me from going on a wild mad killing spree of small barnyard animals and soaking Eddie Murphy in those poor animal's blood, and to my boredom, which has caused me to create this guide.

Thank you.

Binkw32.dll is ALWAYS solved by putting that exe file back into the RO folder, and making a shortcut instead.

Lovely guide.
