Hi War,

Thanks very much for your tutorial so far.
I've managed to get my server up and running, but not able to get into the game.
I still need help with configuring my client.
One question. Your download link "Client Replacement Folder = Download"
does not link to anything. Is this supposed to be like this, or will it become clear with the rest of the tutorial? Maybe I just misunderstood, or maybe all will be revealed once you complete the tutorial.

Anyway, thanks again and can't wait for the rest of your great work.

I will repack the files with client folder inside, guide updated you should be able to get ingame shortly.

 

[Kreeate]

Much appreciated War. Will patiently wait for your repack.

 

[Warmonger]

Much appreciated War. Will patiently wait for your repack.

Should be all good now.

 

[Kreeate]

Great thanks! I managed to get into the game. Your new server files fixed the character death bug as well. I'm stuck in the starting area now cause the quest where you choose Internal/External is bugged and can't be completed. I'll struggle with it for a while and post back here if I find anything useful.

Thanks again War!

[*]Server Files = Download
.

"The file you are trying to access is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."
Put again please

 

[Kreeate]

I think Warmonger may be offline for a while. I'm busy uploading the server files I got from his link. It worked for me earlier, so I'm not sure what happened to his link now. I will post here as soon as it is done uploading.

EDIT : here's the link for server files - http://www.megaupload.com/?d=M1UTK6HK

2nd EDIT : I think there is a problem with megaupload site. I just uploaded the files and still there is a problem. I will keep trying.

 

[skastafew]

the same, if not hard to please: Put on Free File Hosting Made Simple - MediaFire

 

[Kreeate]

Okay, I had to split the file into smaller ones because of the way MediaFire works.
Just extract them all to your Server folder.

Here they are :
Client.rar
Database.rar
Server Files.rar
Web.rar

Hope it works now. Let me know if it doesn't.

loads everything fine, but there are not errors at startup LoongWorld?

 

[Kreeate]

Good to see the download is working. LoongWorld is not giving any problems for me. Just start the files up in the following order :

LoginServer.exe
LoongBillServer.exe
LoongDB.exe
LoongWorld.exe

LoongWorld takes a few seconds to start up so just be patient with it.
Sometimes it will say "Not responding", but just leave it for a while, it will start up.

Also, I used to get a message in the DOS window for LoongWorld sometimes that said "This server may have some problems". Just ignore that message and try to login anyway.

I struggled for about 6 hours today, but finally got it working.

I'm sure the rest of Warmonger's guide will make things a lot easier as well once he completes it.

In the meantime, good luck and come back with any questions you may have.

 

[skastafew]

And what can Truce mistake - I run LoongBillServer, it opens and then closes?

---------- Post added at 10:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:14 PM ----------

I put LoongBillServer from another assembly and he has earned, just wrote: "world db init failed? id=100101
bill server init ok!"

---------- Post added at 10:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:20 PM ----------

LoongWorld produces a series of errors, then do not start ...
Errors:
Couldn't find <area CA_info> in var_container
<black_list CA_info>
systemCode:87
and similar ... I understand that something is wrong with the database

 

[TheSickness]

Check your IP config by typing ipconfig in cmd.
If you have more than one IP then that's the problem.
Common programs that configure with IP's are Virtual Box and Hamachi.

 

[junggo]

Why I can not do this quest.

 

[Kreeate]

@skastafew... wow, sorry to hear you are having so many problems. I can assure you though the server files as well as the database is working fine.
Do like TheSickness suggests and check your IP or any third party software that may affect your IP. Check this thread http://forum.ragezone.com/f669/help-couldnt-find-area-ca_info-731436/ for the "area_CA_info" error as well.

@junggo... I have the same problem as you. I'm trying to find that NPC in the quest.xml but have not been able to. Let me know if you find anything out please.

Good luck to everyone!

 

[skastafew]

had experience - put the server on a clean windows in VMware, it worked ...

---------- Post added at 11:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 AM ----------

due to VMware, and probably does not work ...

---------- Post added at 11:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:06 AM ----------

Thank you very much for your help, uninstalled VMware and hamachi and everything was fine!

 

[Cain142]

Hows it going for you all?

 

[Kreeate]

lol. I'm having a real hard time with quest bugs. My starter area is FULL of quest bugs and I just can't seem to figure it out or fix it. When I fix one quest, then three other quests stop working. *sigh* help? please?
