What the argument dumper does

Plenty of servers start their client with a command-line argument, and the client will not launch without it. Rather than hunting for the string, start the game once the normal way and let the argument dumper read it off the running process.

How to Dump the Metin2 Client Argument

Step-by-step guide to dumping the start-up argument required by Metin2 clients that will not launch without it.

Argument Dumper settings

  • Metin clientLists the running game processes that match your current profile's client.
  • DumpReads the argument from the process you selected.
  • Automatic setupIf one is found, STMod offers to configure it: answering Yes fills in Special arguments on the login window, ticks the box and saves it to the profile.
  • Tells you when there is noneIf the client does not use an argument, it says so instead of leaving you guessing.
  • How to (video)The ? button explains what command-line arguments are.

Every option documented in full on the STMod wiki.

How to set up the argument dumper

  1. Start the game the usual way, through the server's own patcher.
  2. Open Plugins → Argument dumper in the launcher.
  3. Pick the running game process under Metin client.
  4. Press Dump.
  5. Answer Yes when STMod offers to save it into the profile.
Automation is against the rules of every Metin2 server and accounts do get banned. STMod has detectors and an HWID switcher, but the risk is yours. Use an account you can afford to lose.

Argument Dumper FAQ

How do I find my server's Metin2 argument?
Start the game through its own patcher, then open Plugins → Argument dumper, select the running process and press Dump. STMod offers to save it into your profile.
Why will my client not start from STMod?
Most often a missing argument. Dump it as above, or check the compatibility list for a note on your server.
What if there is no argument?
The dumper tells you so, and you can leave Special arguments empty.
