OTClient .spr and .dat

[icaromarconato]

Hello,

Keeping in mind that most OT servers nowadays use the "OTC" client and I prefer using the regular Tibia client: when I find an OT server that looks interesting but only provides an OTC download, I go into the data>things>(version) folder, copy the .dat and .spr files, paste them into the corresponding (version) folder of Tibia, and then use an IP changer with the server's name. Sometimes it works, sometimes the Tibia client crashes instantly, sometimes it loads my character list, and sometimes I can walk around for a bit but then the client throws a debug error when it encounters a certain sprite.

Is there anything I can do to make it always work so I can play an OTC server using the standard Tibia client, or at least minimize these issues? Thanks.

Not really - a lot of servers are using custom modules, and without OTC, you will crash, as you said. Biggest servers also provide you with a secure proxy to their server, so during DDoS, you won't experience it at all, with a regular client, it is hard to achieve
