Chat relay between a Discord channel and TERA /guild chat.
You'll need:
- Node.js
- Git
- a Discord bot account
- a TERA account
- Create a new Discord app.
- After app creation, click "Create a Bot User" on the application's setting screen. Make note of the bot ID and the token.
- Invite the bot to your server by going to this link: https://discordapp.com/api/oauth2/authorize?client_id={{BOT_ID}}&scope=bot&permissions=0 (but replace
{{BOT_ID}}
with your bot's ID).
- Join the desired guild on the desired character to use as the bot relay.
- If you want the relay to be able to complete guild quests, give it a role and assign the appropriate permissions in game.
Open up a terminal window and go to a place where you want to put the bot files. Then run:
git clone [email protected]:kyoukaya/tera-discord-relay.git
cd tera-discord-relay
npm install
You'll need to make two JSON configuration files: one for Discord and one for TERA. You can see an example for each in the config/config-sample.json
of their respective directories. It is strongly recommended that you make a new file instead of changing the sample file.
Also note that in order for the rally notification to work for members in Discord, a @rally
role must be created and assigned to those who want to receive the notification.
socket-name
can be anything as long as it matches what you put in the TERA config.token
is the token you got from the setup section above.server-id
can be obtained by right-clicking on the Discord server and clicking on "Copy ID". If you don't see it, open Discord settings, head down to "Appearance", and tick on "Developer Mode".channels
:gchat
channel ID can be obtained by right-clicking on the desired channel and clicking on "Copy ID".
host
andport
will come from your region's server list. You can get links to the servers from thecaali-hackerman/tera-proxy
repo.
Also, TERA has a few version numbers you might need to change for big patches. Open up tera/config/config.json
and look for these:
patchVersion
is usually the major and minor patch number put together. For instance, if you launch TERA, go to server select, and see "56.03.02 EN2" at the bottom, try settingpatchVersion
to 5603. If that doesn't work, try 9901.protocolVersion
is not so easy to check, but if you runtera-proxy
it'll display the protocol version when you connect to it.- Alternatively you can log the
C_LOGIN_ARBITER
packet of an actual login withtera-proxy
.
You'll need to start up two terminals.
One for Discord:
cd path/to/tera-discord-relay/discord
node . config/your-config-file.json
And one for TERA:
cd path/to/tera-discord-relay/tera
node . config/your-config-file.json
It's recommended to run these on an infinite loop because failure conditions terminate the program. However, do note that the auth server will start rejecting logins if too many are performed in a short span of time.
To pull general updates for the Discord relay app:
cd path/to/tera-discord-relay
git pull
npm install
Every major version patch, TERA has some versioning info that needs changing. See the section above on TERA configuration for more info. To update tera-data, simply run:
npm install tera-proxy/tera-data
If the console is throwing up errors about certain packets not being defined, you may need to edit the (protocolVersion).map file and add them;
