343 pls can you reupload the files ?
Oi which one vbox vmware grrrrr...
Posted via Mobile Device
hey can anyone help me which one is good...... vmware or vbox... please help me!!!
So,PW works on *nix system..can I use `windowed` version?Because it is first time,when I`ll work on this system and black console would be some hard to start from
So,is it possible?And what v should I download?
You could use Kubuntu with KDE. That comes with a GUI ( KDE :D: ) but when using Linux you will see that the console is much more powerfull ( and in many cases it saves time ! )
BTW its not that hard as it looks at first. You will get the hang of it very fast if you are really interested in learning it :wink:
The grrr one. :D:
vBox is much better than vmware. But thats just my opinion.
D: Don't tell them that. A lot of people who try and use GUI's end up making things 100x worse and have a lot of permission errors. Its so much simpler and easier to use a server version without the GUI. Also KDE is horrible. Xubuntu would be better as xfce is where its at. lxde is also nice for a more Windows like GUI. NEVER use them for a server though.
In regards to vbox and vmware, it all depends on personal preference. They both do the same thing. I myself prefer virtualbox while 343 swears by vmware. Take your pick and use it. You might like to try vmware since that is what 343 uses in his video.Quote:

Also Drakaer hit the nail right on the head, I personally prefer VMware and could sit here and tell you why and how it's better than VBOX until you were blue in the face. Although as friendly as my release is it can be used on or in any kind of set up that you desire. You can set this up on a physical machine, or in a VM using VMware, or yes, even vbox :): :thumbup:
okok thank you i use vbox player but how to install the ubuntu server??
how you want a server if u cant do even the most easyest thing ever..

Client Files files corrupted i redownload but dont work ... :thumbdown:
Sorry to hear you've had trouble downloading. The only advice I can offer at this time is to attempt a different mirror, or even re-downloading from where you first tried.
Now, I do not operate any of those mirrors so I cannot assure any of them in particular will or will not work. Worst case scenario, you will have to wait for my pending release update. Which will hopefully be within the next couple of weeks.
He could try the torrent... it works, for me at least. Once again, the key lies in searching :)
Is there a mirror for the server root files that isnt on now closed MegaUpload?
why i cant login in ubuntu i follow the 343 video i put user login and
when i try login with user it will say login incorect whats the problem???
WHere To Create The Account??
I am hoping to have this done in a rather timely manner. Though I do think I am going to 'take a little more time on this one' because I am also guessing that once everyone gets their greasy little paws on 1.4.4 no one will really be interested in 1.3.6 any more :'( So this is HIGHLY likely to be my last release when it does 'drop' =\
You can do a 1.4.4 release :D
I have never used 1.3.x. Only 1.2.6

Hey guys,
I got the server running at last; used VBox with Ubuntu etc etc etc... everything works, server is working, i can open pwadmin and start the worlds.
Now trouble kicks in: Whatever i do, i cant get the client to work. When i want to run elementalclient.exe it tells me zlibwapi.dll isnt working on windows. If i exchange them with the same file from an original PWI client, it tells me the same for almost all the other .dll's. I tried like all the different combinations, to no futher avail :( and yes, i did edit the IP in the serverlist and im not using a patcher :)
edit: running windows vista (64-bit)
So, what do? tnx in advance
Can you reupload the notes file? There was some info in it I can't find on the forums. Adminnotes.txt or something
Sorry for the question but, this server-client package works with Windows XP SP3 or
is only for Linux?
All PW servers are Linux (I swear I've said this same exact thing before too), however, you can run a test/build server in a VM (windows as your host OS). I would NOT recommend running a 'production' server in a VM though.
Don't forget I have an 'update' to this entire package coming out pretty soon - so that's another thing to consider before you go downloading all of it :wink:
Also my release is meant to be versatile (it comes as all ISO's) so that you can pretty much do whatever you want with it. Burn it / mount it for installation anywhere (A physical machine, VMware, VBOX, and many more).
Spoiler:
OK I will take your advice and wait for your update, and yes I just want to open a test server for max 4 people, so dont mind to run the server trough VM and thanks for the quick reply.
I know you don't keep track or make a list of what you do, but what would be the biggest most significant reasons for this update? Generals would be helpful, thanks again for all of your work 343.
Biggest thing to have spawned this update is, fixing OHT map quests and spiritual ciltivation quest-line. Previously (last release) OHT was still 'broke' so I added a custom 'cheater' quest to just finish off culti @ lv101 and finishing 'wraiths ploy' unlocked all OHT maps. Now that OHT has been 'fixed' I am replacing these 'custom quests' so that you will have to unlock all OHT maps separately (like on official) and so that culti will be feasible as well.
I am also adding another map with this update. I will be adding the 'new style' a12, but also keeping the old one. The actual 'event cave' is going to remain the 'old' a12, while I will be adding the new a12 (as a12b) completely empty and ready for customization (just like z9 and q20)...
Those are the two/three biggest factors I can think of :wink:
Add:
This may very well be the last 'update' too, since everyone is 'gaga' over 144 =\
Add:
Oh yea, and the length of usernames/passwords is being updated since we just recently tested that out. Usernames will now be 4~20 characters and Passwords will now be 6~20 characters (for main register, change password, pwAdmin, and pwAdmin plugin/force PW change).
OK thanks for the insight, and again thanks for all of your hard work over the years. I myself will continue to use your release for awhile to come.
Well just one thing i need to know.... in this test server is there like any restriction of the number of ppls that can Login or join....?
Now Many Private Server Was Upgrade to 1.4.4 version ..NVM..Later We All Will Know
i using vmware player have install ubuntu server bla bla bla now how i want to play???and how to use server_root.Zz
Well 343 sir.... if u could say one more thing.... the PW cliens download there are 3 clients... do i need to download all the 3? or are they different? As i am new to this server thing... so pls help... TY :D
This package is so good. It is sad that people would jump out of their ass instead of use this package...you sure tried 343, good job :)
It was workin' till stupid ass 144 came out. That's ok I have NO intent to EVER do a 1.4.4 release, nor do I have intent to ever run a 1.4.4 server.
Though now guessing that everyone and their mother WILL be making 'the switch' to 1.4.4 I guess maybe I WILL open a 1.3.6 server (here's my chance to really shine :D:)
Not a bad idea, just make it different - every one is running the same formula for 1.4.4 - differing gigantic rates and slight tweaks to get to the top faster. With the new crop they're all going to be exactly the same no matter what. Making a fully customised 1.3.6 would stand out, make it worth exploring once more by culling half a billion of the existing quest lines and making your own story - a parallel one to the one you experience playing Perfect world so it still fits the world would work, or even take what bash did with the LOMA maps and bring them into the FB's. With your understanding of the game you could make something truely unique to you.
343's pw package update allready realese?
Anyone know why when I try using Custom Commands - Execute start.sh from winscp then my pwadmin can't login anymore... Please help...
343 please could u help me?
343 please could u help me?
Sorry I do not support use of WinSCP, you'll have to consult somebody else for help in regard to that :wink:
mr. 343
Why can not manufacture weapons and armor in the furnace :*:
In all of the testing multiple people have done on this release there has never been a complaint (especially related to manufacturing)...
So presuming you're talking about something 'custom' you're trying to do, you may want to seek out other threads on how to do that. :wink:
If you're "submitting a bug report" then you need to be VERY specific...
Thank you
~343
" Why can not manufacture weapons and armor in the furnace "
any error message ? [ like system / service failed ? ]
I think I got someone hooked on 4shared :P
How do I actually download this? I am stuck on the i386 one should I use the amd one or the one from the official website? Sorry if I doubled this post.:(:
343, I never made a PW server so do you recommend me this package or should I wait to your promised updated package?
You would be safe to actually grab it in its current form. I have actually already updated, albeit silently (for a few reasons). Number one everyone is so gaga over the 'new version' I wanted to see if anyone would even notice I have updated (note: the links are no longer megaupload {hence them not existing any more} but 4shared). The other reason is I am quite a perfectionist, and even though I 'pushed out' the release as projected on 4/March/2012 I've already caught myself finding little things I have wanted to change and have re-uploaded a handful of times already (with minor changes)...
So, again, you should be safe to grab it is it is right now. I cannot promise I will not do any 'tedious' "little updates" though (the only way you'll really know is if you pay attention to the edited date/time on the first post, or if you pay attention to the checksums changing)... As it is though I think it's pretty solid. The only thing I do know I plan to continuously keep updated is the dev/tools PW_DEV.iso ~ So I'd keep an eye on that to watch for that to change. I already know I will be pushing out another updated PW_DEV.iso tomorrow (I would do it tonight but I am too tired)...
Well, if anything then (for your sake) I will make sure to post up when I'm done possibly making any of those small or 'tedious' changes (as I may still be doing for days to come)... So that you don't have to worry about doing it more than once (should you opt to in the first place) :wink:
WoW ! It's hard to believe in 3 days it's the one year anniversary for my release =O
Well, I have decided I am going to attempt to do something due to the fact we're upon the 1 year anniversary of this release.
So, at this point, I can safely say; " Do not download the current release ", as it will be a waste of time since I plan on putting out another update for (and maybe ON) the 1 year anniversary :wink:
So, for the mean-time the links have all been taken down...
So, for the mean-time the links have all been taken down...
Hello, everyone! Hello, 343!
I've downloaded recently and tried out your 136 release - works like charm! (+1 like from me!)
Just stopping by to say one big Thank you!
I'm totally aware how much effort you should've put in this, 'cause i'm dealing with similar job every day, so deep bow to you, keep up the great work and i'm looking forward to the update you've mentioned above!
Cheers!
uploading as we speak... :wink:
i like the release i always turn it into my own though xD, still a great release thank q sir
Alright, happy one year, the new update is now available :wink:
343, i have everything installed correctly, and all, but when i type in my ip's, and then go to a web browser to try and get to the pwadmin site, it takes me to xampp.... lol. Any ideas on how to fix this please.?
and yes i have the server started and the ips edited.
And as for all of the people that switched to 1.4.4 , bad........
Hello again, everyone,
just a question, 343,
you've re-uploaded the "update package" like whole client + server files, right? Not a separate file to be applied on them?
Thanks in advance, sorry for misunderstanding, 'cause i didn't see any additional files on the main page.
pwAdmin is ran by default on :8443 and (as it says in post #2) there are a few ways you can get to it:
#1 http://your.ip.here/admin
#2 http://your.ip.here:8443/pwAdmin
Yes, this release/update is stand-alone :):
VMware is my suggestion, download their 'player' it's the best (and now free) :wink:
good job 343 :)
Downloading now im sure that u did a good job as always.
Congrats for 1 year since this release is up and working perfect.
EDIT: i LOVE the host that you chosed the download speed is great.
I'll go ahead and spoil one of the new things to hit this 'anniversary release'.
Nirvana - I added a custom version of nirvana created by yours truly :wink:
&& of course all the other things that I was adding since I was updating the release anyway. Although once I realized we were coming up on the one year mark, that's what made me decide to go ahead and do a little something extra. So the result of that is my custom Nerd-vana :thumbup1:
Hope everyone likes the newest 'update' to this release. As I've already stated, it includes a custom nirvana made by myself (added as a26b). As many of you may know I do not keep 'notes' on 'changes' ("changelogs") but a few other things I know that have been resolved or added in this update/release is a12b. I kept the original jungle/forest ruins in place but I added the new version of a12 as a12b ; as another empty map (empty and ready for customization) like Z9 and Q20... I fixed the OHT and spiritual cultivation quest lines so that you have to actually do all quests to unlock each OHT map separately (like on official) [for those who don't know dating back to having 'problems' with OHT I made it so that once you unlocked OHT you automatically 'got' all OHT maps, and for culti I made a cheater quest that just 'finished off' your culti for you {since OHT was 'broken'}], that has now been fixed too so that you actually have to (and can) fully complete the spiritual cultivation quest line (which can be followed here) Another thing was maximizing the number of characters that can be utilized when creating or modifying an account. Login names are now limited to 4-20 characters, Passwords are now limited to 6-20 characters! Skill menu has received an extension (both interfaces if I recall correctly), and thinking of which, the genesis interface has been merged with the client and is no longer a separate download! Those are the primary highlights that stick out in my memory, I'm sure I have done more than that as well :wink::thumbup1:
Wohoho cant wait to see that :ott::ott::ott::ott::ott::ott:
For those who dont know to extract:
Client:
PW_136_Client.7z.001
PW_136_Client.7z.002
PW_136_Client.7z.003
use http://d9yt0xeucd09m.cloudfront.net/...43/HJSplit.exe
to be able to extract the archives
Or - 7-Zip (which it what I used to put it all together :wink:)
343,
just a suggestion: in the case of new users of the VMware Player - it can be useful to put a note that the
mount /dev/cdrom /cdrom command may vary, depending on which device you insert the .iso image in.
By default - VMware player has 2 CD/DVD devices emulated,
so for me for example it happened that it was in cdrom1 instead of cdrom, and thus:
mount /dev/cdrom1 /cdrom
worked.
Besides than that - thanks for the Annual Update, man,
looking forward jumping in Nirvy and trying the Genesis Interface! :))
Way to go!!!! :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
Also...on the topic of making it more user friendly, the mounting is the #1 question I get asked. Maybe you could provide more info for them to mount it?
(If you can add whats below to the guide, that would be great)
mkdir /var/pw
mount /path/to/the/iso/file /var/pw OR mount -o loop /path/to/the/iso/file /var/pw
cd /var/pw
ls
and your unpacked files will be shown!
ok i got everything to work, besides the patch server.
That's why it says EXAMPLE:
This being a forum for perfect world development (and not how to mount a drive in Linux) I didn't see the necessity to go into depth on how to mount something. Also, since the main step says "-- Mount server ISO (or physical disc), and copy all to system root" anyone that does not know how to do this, or cannot figure it out -- even with the example can rather easily google "Linux Mount" or "Linux mount how to" etc... until they can figure it out :):Spoiler:
I must add, that with these posts now too, if someone STILL cannot figure out how to mount something *comment reserved* !!!
:thumbup1::thumbup1:
Ok, ok, no offence, man,
it's just i'm dealing with users and all kinds of weird questions every day,
so i thought it would be proactive to give ppl a hint what they should expect.
However - as i said - it's just a suggestion...
No offense taken :): i was just explaining why I did not provide extensive detail on things in the 'how-to' post. Now that it has been covered rather well though people don't have any excuse not to be able to do it :thumbup1::D: (Provided they actually read through or search this thread) - I just, still have no intent on adding it to the 'how-to' post (#2), if people really have problems with that they should read or search this entire thread, and/or use google :wink:
well, besides not getting the patch server to work, it says error connecting blah blah, this is defanitly a nice release. Excellent work.
As for those of you who cant get the mounting to work, mind you i have never ran on a linux or any kind of linux before. As it took me like, 12 hours to figure out the command to mount the iso. I used no tutorials. Never ran linux, i just messed with it for a long time, and finally got it. Dont give up, its actually easy.
... i think its sPatch > try documentation > pwTools
uhhhh what? lol.
I already have CPW, and the other spatcher, i just cant get em to connect i guess.
I run up the patcher, it says error connecting to server, But i can still log on the game and stuff.
EDIT: nvm, i got the spatcher to work, i run it and it says
client version :1
Availible version :1
Okay now, my next question that I do not understand is, how to put files into the patcher. I tried other tutorials, but just don't understand them well enough. =\
To create a patch to this :
make new folder called element
lets say that you want to update elements.data
in the folder element add new folder data
in the data folder add elements.data , gshop.data or what you want to update
then archive the element folder with the name ec_patch0-1.xup
after making the archive copy it to opt > lampp > htdocs > update
then open the versions.sw from update folder and add there 1=ec_patch0-1.xup
then save and update make sure that ur patcher is set at 0 or make the patch with the name 2=ec_patch1-2.xup
Thanks a bunch. This made it work. =]
But, last question, how do i add the folder into opt>lampp>htdocs>update, this i have no clue how to do. lol. I'm also on vmware work station if that helps.
Also i looked on the documentation, and where it shows how to add the patch files, For some reason, mine does not look like that, i only have the iso attached to linux.
Am i also suppose to attach it to my windows 7 as well?
