3. GameServer.exe (This takes 20–30 seconds. Look for "2-02 Korea - Map load complete - 48 maps loaded")

Technical Architecture: Setting Up the -2-02 Environment

If you have acquired the Tales Runner Private Server Game Files -2-02 Korea, you will need a specific legacy environment to run them. Modern Windows Server 2019 or Linux (Wine) will cause immediate crashes due to deprecated Winsock functions.

4. Known Vulnerabilities & Exploits in This Build

Because -2-02 is an older Korean build, it contains multiple unpatched exploits:

1. Item Duplication – Packet replay attack on ITEM_USE opcode (no transaction ID check).
2. Speed Hack – Client-side speed value is not server-validated; emulators in this repack often lack proper validation.
3. Lua Injection – The Lua/race_rules.lua can be modified client-side to disable collisions or increase jump height. Official servers used CRC checks on Lua files; the private repack disables this.
4. SQL Injection – Default LoginServer scripts often concatenate user input directly into queries.

4.1. Server-Side Files

• Login Server: Handles authentication and session management.
• Game Server: Manages room logic, physics, collision detection, and race states.
• Database Schema: Usually SQL scripts (MySQL or MSSQL) containing table structures for:
  • CHARACTER (Stats, items equipped).
  • ACCOUNT (Login credentials, permissions).
  • ITEM (Definitions of usable objects).
• Configuration Files: .ini or .cfg files requiring editing to point the server executable toward the database IP address.
