Note:- If you are getting sprite errors because of you are using iRO or an old kRO Installer then you should download the latest installer.

1117, 1207, 1228 (from 2004), and 0315, 0329, 0628, 0802, 0830, 0927 and 1025 (from 2005) should NOT to be used to install anymore.
These are too old and will not patch successfully. If you have these, I recommend to delete them and download the latest 0117 ones.
If you try and patch using these versions the patcher will crash because theres too much patch data to download.
Because of this I have removed all links to installers 1025 and older from this guide.

If you are having trouble downloading using the direct download links in this guide or you prefer to use 'filefront' or 'bit-torrent'.
There are a few download links right at the bottom of this post.

If you have any alternate download links that I don't have here, please PM them to me or post them here, thanks.

Before you start downloading, make sure your hard-drive has at least 5 Gb of free space.
(2.5Gb for the downloaded installers plus 2.5Gb to install the game)

I recommend to install a download manager to help speed up the download.
I use "Internet Download Manager", you can get it from the page below
http://www.internetdownloadmanager.com/download.html
You can use any download manager you like, it doesn't have to be "Internet Download Manager"

After you have installed "Internet Download Manager", Start It from the startmenu and click "Options" on the toolbar
Go to the "connection" tab and change the default max connection number to:
"1" (recommended for 56k dial-up connections)
"2" (recommended for 64kbit to 256kbit connections)
"4" (recommended for 384kbit to 512kbit connections)
"8" (recommended for 768kbit or faster connections)
If your not sure on what speed you have, then use "4" connections.
After you have set this, Click on OK to close the options window.

Click the 'Add URL' button on the toolbar and paste in a Ragnarok Installer Link and click OK
Browse to a folder you want to save it into and click 'download later', and repeat for the Sakray Installer Link.

Don't click the link on this page, if you want to test if the link works, paste the link into another browser window.
If the download starts then you can cancel the download and paste the link into 'Internet download manager'.
If the download doesn't start or takes more then 30 seconds to connect try another download link.
If all the download links are not working, you may have to use bit-torrent or filefront to download (see the bottom of this post).

Please don't click the links on this page, paste them into your download manager or a new browser window instead.
If you get a "503 - Service Unavailable" or a "Refused Connection" error that means the server is overloaded.
If you get a "404 - Not Found" error that means the server is currently offline.
Try using another download server mirror or use filefront or bit-torrent to download.

***

The downloads from the official kRO website might not work for everyone as gravity has blocked some ISP's from downloading.
If one server is slow / overloaded, try another server or try filefront / bit-torrent (links at bottom of post)

Now click the 'start queue' button on the toolbar and wait for the download to finish
If the download does not start within a minute, starts and finishes quickly, or is very slow,
Delete the files in the queue (if they are still there) and try adding one of the other links.

After the download has finished, Internet Download Manager may need to rebuild the file this may take a couple of minutes depending on your hard-drive speed. The installers will be downloaded into "My Documents > Downloads > Programs" so if you didn't change the default download folder try looking there.

If you havn't had a ragnarok client installed before or you have an old version of kRO installed then you can skip to the "Installing the kRO Ragnarok Clients" section.

If you have had the 'iRO Ragnarok Client' installed you must uninstall it before installing the kRO clients.
if you wish make a backup of your screenshots, chats, and emblems before you uninstall.

If you are not sure how to uninstall, open "My Computer", then open "Control Panel" and double click "Add / remove programs", You may have to wait for the list of installed programs to appear, when it appears find 'Ragnarok Online' in the list and highlight it you will see a "change / remove" button, click it and the uninstall program will start.

A window should open asking are you sure you want to uninstall. click yes and it should now be uninstalled.
You will also need to remove "Ragnarok Sakray", so repeat the steps above.

You can view the entire install process with pictures (that are not links) here

Run the Ragnarok setup file you downloaded and on the first window click the first button, click here for a picture

On the second window, click the first button this will enable the second button
Click the second button and this will continue to the third screen, click here for a picture

On this screen you can set a custom install folder if you need to, otherwise leave it as default
After the folder has been set, click the bottom middle button, click here for a picture

Wait for it to finish installing, click here for a picture

After the install has finished uncheck the check-box and click the button,click here for a picture

Run the sakray install and repeat steps above. You need to install ragnarok and sakray to the same folder
If your the install stops with an error then make sure you have enough disk space, you will need at least 2gb free space.
if you have enough free space, then your installer may of gotten corrupted during download.
There is a way to fix it using Bit-torrent, you can find a guide on how to repair your installers here

You now need to Patch Ragnarok and Sakray by using the shortcuts on the desktop
or by opening the 'Ragnarok.exe' and 'Sakray.exe' files in your Ragnarok Install Folder.
Wait for the Patcher to connect to the patch-server and download the patches.
After the Ragnarok and Sakray patches have finished downloading, the first button should
turn 'blue' when you put your mouse over the button. Click the 'Last' button to exit the patcher.
Click Here for a Picture
You will need to patch BOTH kRO Ragnarok and kRO Sakray

Here is an 'english translated' kRO PatchClient for Ragnarok and Sakray (312kb)
use this only if you are getting an error message or are having problems when trying to patch kRO Ragnarok or Sakray.
Unzip it to your ragnarok folder and overwrite all files if asked to overwrite.
Link 1 - Link 2
(you'll need to wait 45 seconds for the link to appear on Link 1, it appears in the top right corner)

Make sure you open the kRO Ragnarok and kRO Sakray Patchers at least once a fortnight to download any recent updates.
If you update at least once a week then you will not have to download the install files ever again

Below is a list of Bit-Torrent and File-Front Mirrors if you are having trouble downloading using the direct download links.

You cannot use a download manager to download from filefront.

** 0117 Installers (Latest) **
Ragnarok 0117 - Part 01 (524.52Mb) : http://files.filefront.com/4649902
Ragnarok 0117 - Part 02 (508.57Mb) : http://files.filefront.com/4641697
Both files need to be placed in the same folder and then extracted using winrar, starting from Part 01.

Sakray 0117 (856.74Mb): http://files.filefront.com/4650579

If the links are broken you can go to http://gtau.filefront.com/ and find the files named:
RAG SETUP0117.part1.rar, RAG SETUP0117.part2.rar and SAK SETUP0117.exe
You will need Winrar to extract the Ragnarok installer from the two part file, you can download it from http://www.rarlabs.com/download.htm

Once you have finished downloading one part you will need to wait about 80 minutes to be able to download the next part.
All files need to be placed into the same folder and then extracted using winrar, starting from Part 01.

Ragnarok 0117 Torrent: http://sakuraheaven.com/mirrors/RAG_SETUP0117.exe.torrent
Sakray 0117 Torrent: http://sakuraheaven.com/mirrors/SAK_SETUP0117.exe.torrent
Ragnarok Online Bit-Torrent Tracker: http://sakuraheaven.com/mirrors/

If you have a corrupted installer (one that shows an error during install) you can repair them with bit-torrent.
You will need to have a bit-torrent client like bit-comet installed.
