Just revert these changes, not sure whether OTClient removed the code too.

I think the problem is not the source, but the otv8 that does not appear

hey lursky,

do you know what changes i need to do to make the motd load from db and not from config.lua?

as exemple (SELECT value FROM server_config WHERE config = motd_text)

using that i can change the motd using globalscripts with boosted moster of the day

I don't have motd in the database, but if someone finds the solution it will help

you are right it is from client side
Tried it with the default cipsoft client and it shows the Motd normally

It works on OTClient, you just need to adapt it correctly.


Edit: I did it in under 10 minutes — it only required editing entergame.lua.


For those who want to save time, here it is: just download and replace your data/modules/client_entergame/entergame.lua file in your OTCv8 (Kondra or OTAcademy), and enjoy!

I done the same thing but I later found out the motd somehow appears one time unless it is changed again from the config?

If I’m not mistaken, the MOTD only shows once per day.
If you log in and it appears, that’s fine — the next day it will show again.
I haven’t tested it yet, but I’ll check it out later to be sure.
