SETTING UP YOUR OWN TANKY ONLINE SERVER

Step 1: Downloading the required files.

Server Files:
Client: - Thanks To whitemist for the upload.
SQL Server 2000: (Upgrade to SQL Server 2000 SP3 Patch Recommended)

Step 2: Setting Up The Databases

After downloading the SQL Server 2000 and the server files - install and extract them to their respective folders.

> Then open Enterprise Manager in SQL Server 2000.
> Then to go Databases and create a new database by right clicking. Name it qtank.
> Then go to Logins and create a new login by right clicking it. Set the name to tanky and the password to 1111 (the password should be in the SQL Authentication column). Once this is done, set the login master database to qtank and give it owner rights by setting it as the db_owner.

Now the database has been created. You need to restore the database.

> Open Query Analyzer in SQL Server 2000.
> Authenticate using your SQL master password and you will enter Query Analyzer.
> There you need to open the tanky.sql file that comes along with the server files. Once this is opened, set your database to qtank at the top and click on the green button (which looks like play button) or inshort, RUN it.

Congratulations, You have successfully restored your database.

Step 3: Setting Up the ODBC's

> Open Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Data Sources (ODBC) - System DSN Tab
> Click Add and choose SQL Server (which is at the end of the list).
> Enter the name as qtank and set your server name (which you can find in the Service Manager of SQL Server 2000).
> Then set to SQL Server Authentication and enter your ID: sa and Password: (your master password)
> Then tick change default database to and choose qtank
> In the end - Test Database and it it works successfully, then you are all set.

Congratulations on setting your ODBC's correctly.

Step 4: Configuring Your Server Files

Open your server files folder where you will find LoginServerSetup.dat and ServerSetup.dat. Open these files using Wordpad.

LoginServerSetup.dat

This is the version of your server. Your server and client version should match each other to avoid incompatibility problems.

ServerSetup.dat

Set your IP Address to either you local (127.0.0.1) if you want to host it offline or to your LAN (192.168.1.XXX) if you want to host it on your local area network and your WAN IP if you want to host it over the internet.

SN Value is the number of rooms setup on the server.
Name is the name of your server which your clients will see.

Step 5: Configuring Your Client

> In your client folder, you will find the following files - ClientSetup.dat
> Open the file in WordPad and edit the IP line to the same you mentioned in the ServerSetup.dat

Congratulations! You have successfully configured your server and client files.

Step 6: Launching Your Server

Execute your LogInServer.exe first and then your QTankSvr.exe. After executing both, you should see a value 1 and the IP setup on your Login Server. This means your server has started with no errors.

Congratulations On Setting Up Your Server!

Miscellaneous
: Editing Your Databases

Creating A User ID:
> Open your Enterprise Manager - Databases -Tables
> Go to the table "UserData" and right click it. Go to Open Table - Return All Rows.
> Here you can enter the values you wish and create your User ID.

You can also do the same for the rest of the tables present in the database to edit the respective stuff they stand for.

Thank You,
-- iNs@nE
