How to make a MapleStory Private Server [v83]
This is a discussion on How to make a MapleStory Private Server [v83] within the Tutorials forums, part of the Java Based (Odin) category; why the changes of the players are not saved??...
Hello, after working trough all the steps everything works fine, got the server open via hamachi for my friends.
i just need some help with finding a fix for the ingame attack bug, ( when players are in the same map everyone dc's when someone uses a attack/skill or certain buffs.)
I will show you how you can setup a MapleStory private server. Just follow these easy
and up-to-date instructions and you will be up and running in a few minutes.

1) Getting started.
2) Required programs.
3) Installations.
4) Files placement.
5) Server files.
6) SQL setup.
7) Preference setup.
8) Start server.
9) Using the client.
First go to C:\
Once there make 3 folders, call them whatever you want but for this tutorial I'll name them 'ZenthosDev', 'Downloads' and 'MapleStoryV83'.
Now it should look like this: C:\ZenthosDev
C:\Downloads
C:\MapleStoryV83
Before we start make sure that everything is extracted if its in a .rar format.
Installing MapleStory v83:
Install MapleStory using the download provided. Its a very straight foward installation, just follow the instructions.
After installing, DO NOT update/run the game using the client it comes with.
Delete the following files/folders from the C:/MapleStoryV83 folder if they exist.
MapleStory.exe
Patcher.exe
GameLauncher.exe
HShield (folder)
Installing WampServer:
Follow the instructions and install it at: c:\Wamp
Don't worry about putting your e-mail and such at the end just press finish.
Once your done installing it, run it and you will see the Wamp icon on the bottom right corner.
Left click it and click 'Put Online'.
Then Left click it again and click 'Start All Services'.
The Wamp icon must look completely green (if its orange or red, you have a problem).
Installing MySQL Query Browser:
This is very simple, just run the installation file, agree to the terms and follow the instructions.
Installing Java SE Development Kit (JDK):
Before we do this right click your computer icon and click properties.
Depending on what system type your computer has you will either install 32bit or 64bit.
So install the corresponding file.
Another simple installation just follow the instructions.
Take the two files from the folder (JCE Unlimited Strength Files) and copy them.
Paste them into these places, overwrite if prompted.
(The (jdk1)/(jre7) folder version may be different, its ok).
Open MySQL Query Browser, by default you should see this, if not, type it.
Server Host: localhost Port: 3306
Username: root
Everything else can be left blank, click "Ok".
Then click on the 'File' button from the menu bar, and select 'Open Script...'.
Go to C:\ZenthosDev\SQL and open the file named 'ZenthosDev.sql'.
After its opened, execute the file.
(This part is optional if your running the server for your computer only)
Go to C:\ZenthosDev and open the file called 'server.properties'.
Update the IP to yours. If your not sure what your IP is, visit Show Me My IP Address.
You may also make any changes to have the server so that it operates the way you want it to.
Take the v83 LocalHost client and place it inside the C:\MapleStoryV83 folder.
Now you may use that client to log into your server! Note: To have your friends join your server you will need to edit your client's IP address, please look for a client hex tutorial.

I made a server using this tutorial last year. I tried to make another server using this tutorial and it failed. You didn't include much of MySQL editting, Netbeans compile, Server constants, hex editing, and most importantly, how to get the server ONLINE. This is a well written tutorial for people who want to make a server thats not public. Please bring back the old tutorial that had much more information than this. Thank you.
Everything seems to work but when i try to make a character and try to login it seems to just stay at the character menu.
It makes the sound but it doesn't seem to able to go into the world.
from C:\ZenthosDev\SQL, i am unable to execute the file through MySQL Workbench as the file is in the form of a notepad and cant be read by the MySQL Workbench
