Alright. At this point, I'm completely stumped. I've used Hamachi, no-ip, LAN, everything I could find on the internet, and still nothing.

Now, I followed the tutorial point by point by point. I can log into the server just fine, since it's on my computer, and I get no errors or anything of the like. I used a hex editor to edit the local host, and have set it to several different IP addresses of mine that I could find (including Hamachi, etc.) However, when I try to have my friends log in they get the error, no matter what, that they are unable to reach the server do to a server check or firewall etc.

I see a few people with the same error, and tried what people replied to them with no results. I use win7, if that helps any.

If anybody could please take the time to help me, I would be very appreciative. My little sister loves maplestory (she's 10) but she's not allowed online, so me and my girlfriend are setting up this small server for my family. I'd be extremely, extremely grateful if I could get a little help or even a nudge in the right direction. Thank you all in advance for your time!

(P.S. I have the ports 7500-8500 forwarded properly, have tried lowering my firewall, etc)
(P.S.S It deletes m characters any time I restart the server)

Um now i got a new problem....... i can get to login screen with Localhostv83.exe . And if i like put like sdfsdfsdf in login id the game recognizes it as Invalid, when i try Admin with random password it says Incorrect password. When i put Admin and the password thats in database the game fades black and closing, leaving the message

You have been disconnected from the login server. Please try again later

NeroSnowpaw: When you edit the client make sure you REPLACE the IP not INSERT it, also, edit the server.properties file and change the IP field with your IP. To make sure there aren't any problems, turn off your firewall, if it all works fine then turn it back up but if you start having problems you will know its with your firewall (also turn windows firewall off).

sig1: Read the FAQ's, do step 4 again carefully.

Hey guys, I'm thinking about settings up a private server for MS. I loved the game back in the day, heh. (I bet you hear this A LOT lmao) I have little computer technical knowhow really but I have modded bethesda games like Fallout 3 and Oblivion EXTENSIVELY. How hard is this in comparison? I am just wanting to invite a few friends and play a small very private game. Is the router/port forwarding part on step 9 hard? I have had issues with setting up routers before.

Edit: I'll go back and read over the forum but what kinda spec's do I need to set up a private server?

I have began the awesome task of reading through the posts and other threads heh... If I'm reading right you can play your own game on the same PC your hosting on yes?

 

[Shinmuriel]

OK, step 7...

Open the file named 'server.properties' isn't working. I guess I need another program or app maybe? Any advice? I think I read something about a Hex..er something like that? What's up?

Edit: Ho'kay.. step 9 seemed to clear up that question maybe so scratch that for now.

But, I can't find this local host client file, any advice?

My maplestory game installed under Nexon/Maplestory and I have another folder I made from your instructions c/maplestoryV83. Maybe I'm overlooking something? Do I change the install location to C/MaplestoryV83 when I run the install wiz for maplestory?

Edit edit edit: Ho'kay it works, that's fantastic! Thanks everyone for the help! <3

and now to find a hex editor...

BUT... what does friends need to download to play on my server and how do they connect? Any threads on this maybe? Thanks again and I will continue to read while I patiently await your answer.

ZOMG how do I make an account or register?

 

[XiuzSu]

The localhost client is provided in this topic, check the download links provided.
Nexon/Maplestory and c:/maplestoryv83 should be the same thing... (assuming you did download the v83).

 

[Shinmuriel]

Ok, once in game I noticed two things.

1) What is the birthday for gifting people (if its turned on) and...

2) It seems as if all of the female specific items (NX cash) are turned off for some reason. Any ideas?

 

[XiuzSu]

I believe that the birthday is set when the account is made, and pretty much you have to be older than 18 I think...
For the female items it might be an error on the cashshop in the source, I will go back and take a look.

Ok I may have sucked you into newbhell but let me ask... Is there a level requirement for Cash Shop stuff? >.>

Regardless, when I enter the cash shop at level 1 the male clothing has a "buy" button that is lite up and the female clothing does not, I can only gift it. If this is normal please pardon my newbness.

 

[Shinmuriel]

How do other players make accounts or register at the log in screen?

The only account I can enterr with is the admin/zenthosdev

 

[Shinmuriel]

Issues resolved.

I am curious though if anyone would share, what changes have been made to ZenthosDev (if any)? Seems like EXP is turned up at first glance. Any threads where I can look for details?

 

[Shinmuriel]

Has anyone else got the zenthosdev server to work with clients? I am having a lot of problems and I noticed that it seems the author didn't really plan intend on people playing with clients in the actual tutorial given here, as it doesn't really cover anything aside from single player set up. Below are a couple of screenshots of some errors I am getting. I have no clue what they mean but it looks like missing files at first glance.

 

[XiuzSu]

Shinmuriel somehow you are missing the characters table on your SQL, re-execute the SQL file (Step 6).

 

[Jubejubes]
