and up-to-date instructions and you will be up and running in a few minutes.
[Table of Content]
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.
------------------+++++++++============================================+++++++++------------------
Step 1) Getting started:
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
------------------+++++++++============================================+++++++++------------------
Step 2) Required programs:
Download these programs/files.
Place everything inside the C:\Downloads folder.

- ZenthosDev v83

Make sure you chose the correct version matching your Operating System (OS) to avoid any problems.
------------------+++++++++============================================+++++++++------------------
Step 3) Installations:
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.
------------------+++++++++============================================+++++++++------------------
Step 4) Files placement:
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).
C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\lib
C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\lib\ext
C:\Program Files\Java\jre7\lib\security
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_01\lib
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_01\jre\lib
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_01\jre\lib\ext
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_01\jre\lib\security
------------------+++++++++============================================+++++++++------------------
Step 5) Server files:
Copy all the files and folders inside the ZenthosDev folder that we made earlier. So it looks like this.
C:\ZenthosDev\ <files and folders here>
Now copy the WZ folder inside the ZenthosDev folder.
So it should look like this.
C:\ZenthosDev\WZ\ <Folders here>
------------------+++++++++============================================+++++++++------------------
Step 6) SQL setup:
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.
------------------+++++++++============================================+++++++++------------------
Step 7) Preference setup:
(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

.You may also make any changes to have the server so that it operates the way you want it to.
------------------+++++++++============================================+++++++++------------------
Step 8) Start server:
Go to C:\ZenthosDev
Open the file called '[ZenthosDev] OneW.bat'.
Wait 10 seconds and then your bat file should look like this.
Code:
ZenthosDev has started:
World Launched
Login Launched
Listening on IP: 127.0.0.1 Port: 8484.
Channel Launched
[Channel] 1 Port: 7575 is online.
[Channel] 2 Port: 7576 is online.
------------------+++++++++============================================+++++++++------------------
Step 9) Using the client:
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.
