The .bnp files are somewhat similar to a “tar” archive but.. it CAN'T have sub folders inside. So the order of things must be: “A folder containing files and NO sub folder”. All the .bnp are stored in the /bnp sub folder of the patch system(default: patch_service/patch_game/bnp/).

You can sync some .bnp in the /user folder, others in /data folder.. and so on, as long as you specify them to be used by patch server.

Once you have organized your data as to fitting your needs, you copy them to there right place and your client will receive the updates. You specify(for each .bnp) where it should be copied in the “ryzom.xml” file. For more details about this specification, see: https://khaganat.net/wikhan/fr:syntaxexmlpatchserver

We need to get hold of the data(.bnp files) for the patching process. We therefore start of with the following by getting the code:

cd /home/compil/patch_service/
 
git clone https://git.khaganat.net/khaganat/khanat-data-client.git
cd khanat-data-client/data/

Next in line is the use of the “bnp_make” executable.

Create a new file(perhaps named “make_bnp”?).

nano make_bnp

Put the information(BELOW) into the file and save, make it executable, then run the script.

#!/bin/bash
