Quick setup guide

Requirements

  • Java SE – 17 (link)Note: If you just want to run it, then jre only is fine.
  • MongoDB (recommended 4.0+)
  • Proxy daemon: mitmproxy (mitmdump, recommended), Fiddler Classic, etc.

Running

Note: If you updated from an older version, delete config.json to regenerate it.

  1. Get grasscutter.jar
  2. Create a resources folder in the directory where grasscutter.jar is located and move your BinOutput and ExcelBinOutput folders there (Check the wiki for more details how to get those.)
  3. Run Grasscutter with java -jar grasscutter.jarMake sure mongodb service is running as well.

Connecting with the client

½. Create an account using server console command.

  1. Redirect traffic: (choose one)
    • mitmdump: mitmdump -s proxy.py -kTrust CA certificate:​ **Note:**The CA certificate is usually stored in % USERPROFILE%\ .mitmproxy, or you can download it from http://mitm.it​ Double click for install or …
      • Via command linecertutil -addstore root %USERPROFILE%\.mitmproxy\mitmproxy-ca-cert.cer
    • Fiddler Classic: Run Fiddler Classic, turn on Decrypt https traffic in setting and change the default port there (Tools -> Options -> Connections) to anything other than 8888, and load this script.
    • Hosts file
  2. Set network proxy to 127.0.0.1:8080 or the proxy port you specified.

you can also use start.cmd to start servers and proxy daemons automatically

Building

Grasscutter uses Gradle to handle dependencies & building.

Requirements:

  • Java SE Development Kits – 17
  • Git
Windows
git clone https://github.com/Grasscutters/Grasscutter.git
cd Grasscutter
.\gradlew.bat # Setting up environments
.\gradlew jar # Compile
Linux
git clone https://github.com/Grasscutters/Grasscutter.git
cd Grasscutter
chmod +x gradlew
./gradlew jar # Compile

You can find the output jar in the root of the project folder.

Commands

You might want to use this command (java -jar grasscutter.jar -handbook) in a cmd that is in the grasscutter folder. It will create a handbook file (GM Handbook.txt) where you can find the item IDs for stuff you want.

You may want to use this command (java -jar grasscutter.jar -gachamap) to generate a mapping file for the gacha record subsystem. The file will be generated to GRASSCUTTER_RESOURCE/gcstatic folder. Otherwise you may only see number IDs in the gacha record page.

There is a dummy user named “Server” in every player’s friends list that you can message to use commands. Commands also work in other chat rooms, such as private/team chats. to run commands ingame, you need to add prefix / or ! such as /pos

Bonus

  • Teleporting
    • When you want to teleport somewhere, use the in-game marking function on the map.
      • Mark a point on the map using the fish hook marking (the last one.)
      • (Optional) rename the map marker to a number to override the default Y coordinate (height, default 300.)
      • Confirm and close the map.
      • You will see your character falling from a very high destination, exact location that you marked.

Quick Troubleshooting

  • If compiling wasn’t successful, please check your JDK installation (JDK 17 and validated JDK’s bin PATH variable)
  • My client doesn’t connect, doesn’t login, 4206, etc… – Your proxy daemon setup is most likely the issue, if you are using Fiddler, make sure it running on another port other than 8888
  • Startup sequence: Mongodb > Grasscutter > Proxy daemon (mitmdump, fiddler, etc.) > Game
