OpenKore is a custom client and intelligent automated assistant for Ragnarok Online, a popular MMORPG game. It is a free, open source and cross-platform program that works on Linux, Windows and MacOS. OpenKore can help you level up, farm items, sell loot, chat with other players and more.
In this article, we will show you how to download and use OpenKore for Ragnarok Online. We will use the version from 2012, which is compatible with most servers at that time. However, you can also check the latest version on GitHub[^1^] or SourceForge[^2^]. Please note that some servers may have anti-bot protection or different settings, so you may need to adjust your configuration accordingly.
You can download OpenKore from SourceForge[^2^] or GitHub[^1^]. The SourceForge page has a zip file that you can extract to any folder. The GitHub page has a git repository that you can clone using the following command in the command prompt:
git clone github.com/OpenKore/openkore.git
Either way, you will get a folder named openkore with all the files you need.
