ok thanks...:) but no i cant create a accoutn cause i just cant get that HTML script into my site...:(
Well, if I were you, I should take a look in the different sticked threads.. You might find what you're looking for, I guess.
YES i finnaly got my server online !!! thanks Swezid but now, how can i add all the npc's and monsters in my server ??
1st go into your serverfolder>GameServer>NPC is all NPC's In game.
2nd GameServer>Monster is all monsters In game.
I will give you an example how to edit *a monster file. *a NPC file. *how to edit prices in the different NPC's.
* Example 1:
Lets pick a file named: B_53_Titan (In Game Monster: Titan) looks like this inside:
*
ok thanks..but now i put this npc's and monsters in my gamefolder ??
Oh well, adding monsters (Inactivate or Active) monsters to different fields are pretty easy actually.
Go into your Serverfiles>GameServer>Field.
Press any file named .spm in the end of the name, and open it as notepad.
Lets take Iron-1.ASE.spm
It should looklike this inside:

wow... nice guide Swezid =)
thanks bro ;)
btw, be on msn or steam at friday, ive to speak with u ;p
peace
pls fix the link i cant download -_-
Which link do you mean?
There are many links lol :P
that's new right ?? You could solve the problem with the files ? And the link of the "server files" don't work ( server here link )
Yea, I have put another serverfiles link into my guide.
But I will make a new guide in the weekend since whole my guide has been messed up somehow :S
It will prolly be updated in the weekend.
Cheers.
greate guide!
Thank you!
Can anyone post a correct SQL installing guide?...this is getting annoying already
The guide posted by Sik IS a correct guide.
Yepp, you better look into the other guides before asking for help. Anyway, visit this thread for more information (SiK's 100% SQL Guide, etc.).
Cheers.
Yeah but its not 100%:D...Swezid can i have your msn?...i already had yours but seems like you made a new address..
(Btw: I always scan through all these threads and posts before asking )
Well, sure you can have it, but im 100% busy with my own server, since it will be released later today I will have no time today.

Any idea why the game.exe (BloodPT) crashes after the Yedang Online picture comes?
like "blabla.exe has stopped working.."
Are you using windows XP or Vista? 32 or 64 bit?
vista 32
I wouldn't recommend you host your PT server on your PC.
Bad things about Vista 32-bit:
Can't have more than 3326MB of RAM (If you usually got 4GB or even more of RAM).
The server will lag anyway if you got the worlds greatest processor and internet.
I'd recommend you to reinstall your PC into Windows Server 2003 or 2008, depends on what you're looking for. Or else Windows XP is a possible way to go too, but if you gotta host a nice PT server (Private Hosted) You may need alot of better stuffs for your PC, upgrades and so on.
Cheers.
I'd like to just try to create my own server...and maybe invite few friends to there...something simple
Well, it will be unstable anyway... What stuffs you got installed on your PC? (Like Ram, Processor) including Internet connection w/ cable or wireless?
2gHz , 2Gb ram...dunno about the wireless, but its way faster than usual
Processor type? And if you got a cable into your network card or motherboard (depends on if you bought a network card separate).
Btw, find out your internet speed here: http://www.speedtest.net/
Dual core processor...and all the speedtest show me is: Download 6230kb/s and upload 1387kb/s..
Uhm, I guess that's enough to hold 15-20 players.
Yeah...and I dont even plan to invite more than 4-5...
Okay, then it's enough. If not, the very last thing to is to use hamachi. Even to shut your server is better than hamachi lol. But that's just in worse case ;)
What kind of client and server files do you use?...I got feeling that i was using wrong versions or something...chaospt client and server_200
Ah we used our own serverfiles. And I'd recommend you to download dPT and use their folder but not their client^^
Use BPT's game client (BloodPT).
Cheers.
You mean...I should put the BPT game.exe to dPT's folder and use it, aight?
Yeah, that's what I mean. You also have to change the information in PTReg, Registry and the ldata file too to be able to connect to your server.
If you don't know how to change these things, let me know and I will make you a short guide how to change it.
Cheers.
I do know how to change these...im downloading dpt client from its site...and its like 17kb/sec..."awesome" --_--....
Ah that sux =/, anyway, if you got any more troubles let me know,
cheers.

As you can see...this is my game folder, and server619 is my server folder which is in my clients folder...dunno if its set correctly or not tho..
If I delete the PtReg.rgx and click on game.exe (bloodpt.exe) , it goes to some other pt server, spawns in ric and then DC...edited ldata, made reg file and edited PtReg.rgx to my IP's....after that it didnt connect.
I also edited hotuk and all those sql files in server folder...by the way - do I have to turn on the server.exe before im loggin in with the bloodpt.exe?
K, that's wrong, you should put it in a separate folder on your hdd (harddrive).
like...both on local disk?..allright lets give a try
How do you mean exactly?Quote:
like...both on local disk?
Explain me please I don't understand a shit :D
one thing,why when i choose one map in my server tell me ilegal birth map?plzzz i need help !!

k...thats how they're set...server1 folder contains server files and servu is the client...and still doesnt connect....anyway, do I have to turn on the server.exe before I turn on the bloodpt.exe?
1st, borjita7063 I don't understand what you really mean.
Okay, I better show you where to put it, since you don't understand what I mean.

thx man all work fine now i have 2 question
1.i need tut to make a web for my server but i dont know noting about PHP
2.when i kill some monseter and i get the drop... some drops are bugged i dont see they img
can u tell me how fix that?
can somebody attach a chat room with the register site, i made mine with a chat room in the register site, but i dont like my own edited ones, so can someone out there just make it like that, same as u guys attach players in the register page, attach a chat room, it wud be nice wont it, so the ppl can chat on da register page= server fun+register webpage fun+chat fun= MEGA GREAT SERVER
1. wait till later today, im gonna write a brand new guide how to setup the account manager with a friend of mine.
2. Make sure your items got the correct skin of the item, also check if they exist in hex, in your client.
If it has no image as it usually says IG, add a skin to it then.
So the brand new account manager you've been working on with those new features you told me about a while back will put put up today? :D
I've never said so buddy, im barly active nomore, and im not active as developing on this section.Quote:

Alas, I have made a mistake. I mistook you for someone else. My apologies. :x
Sorry for bumping, but please, can someone re-upload the server_619 files? I really want to try it out, but my server file doesn't have the ClanDB.reg =/
And btw, isn't ClanDb a database?
It is... the .reg file sets up registry settings for database access... I think it's most important for Clan ISS access, but there may be other uses.Quote:

If all you're missing is the .reg files to link to your database you can use my Automated PT Server Registry setup to sort that out for you.:wink:
Thanks for the updates Swezid. It's looking good.
IPConfig doesn't require elevation on Vista BTW... and in all probability both your LAN IP and the routers IP will begin 192.168.x.x... The one you are looking for as your router is the "Default Gateway".

Oh yea... I see you are missing the end of this guide. Again, I have a backup. Please see attached. ;)
Is there anyone who can run a clan server on UltimatePTTestClient? Plz teach us how to do that.
Which clan system do you use? and What's the procedure?
I have been struggling with it for almost a week, but not made it work yet.
RFT has a guide by Happy on clan issues. It's a very tricky subject and each developer seems to have their own method of dealing with clans.
I doubt that any specific server pack is any better suited to any specific clan system than any other. The biggest issue is that if you don't use asp, you have to hex php or WHY urls into the client... and you need some form of ClanSODManager running in the background to update the SQL database with regard to Clan events, SOD scores and such.
Clans are pretty much a separate issue to the game server all-together.
I really, really appreciate the backup bob mate.
And...For you people who read the guide and trying to understand at least the last part of the guide (about the NPC's and from that headline to the end) -I apologize that it's horrible written, i'm thinking about the english part, the grammar and so on, since it was a while ago i wrote it. Although it's that way, I might edit it as soon as I possible can, for now... i'm busy. I just wanted to inform you people, that's why I wrote this messag.
Have a nice day,
Cheers.
No problem Swezid, thanks for updating your guide... I'm thinking that if your guide has up-to-date files, then my guide on using PPT to install some other server files should be a good E.Z.Mode :wink: and yours is perfect for manual.
I personally think anyone who wants to admin a server should know how to do the manual setup, and should also have a pretty good idea of what each folder is for... even if they don't know the exact format of all the files. Your guide is pretty complete in most of those respects... Grammar not withstanding. :wink:
Okay, I have tried my best to follow your instructions and I have checked every place for the correct Ip's and so on. Databases were set up fine. I'm using the server FusionPT repack ..
When I start the server.. well it starts..
however when I try to connect, it goes into a message "connecting to xxx and then it says.. failed to connect.. The exe I am using is (Kpt1871(NoXtrap).exe). I did checked my registry and found everything to be as I expected.
-the client I am using is psTale(test_1871).exe
Oh, and by the way, thanks for updating the guide :3
KPT1871 is a QF client which has the IP in it's exe IINM.
What goes in your registry, for the clien is irrelevant really, as Quant patched out the registry read with a fixed constant in the PE image.
Your IP needs to be hexed into the executable near the end of the file.
Ahhh I knew it! Thanks bob for the reply, I thought I was going to wait another day D:. Okay, give me a second, I'm hexing it now.. I'll be looking for an IP, any suggestions? XD
orr. wait, did you say I could use another .exe to get to my server?
You can... 1871 or 1873 are pretty good for a trial run on the repack you are using IMHO... and hexing the client is pretty much easier than messing with the registry and Idata.bmp shizzle anyway.
You can't miss it, it's a plain ASCII string less than 512 bytes from the end of the file. Specifically, he patched out the code that would otherwise read from "Server1" registry entry... if Server1 is live, the client doesn't look for Server2 or Server3, they are only there to fall back on. (during maintainence or such)
I can't find that code D: I found like 2 ip's and changed them but nothing else. Those two ip's were nowhere near the end of the file though so they are probably not right. How should it look like anyways? (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx)? and where can I get the 1871 exe :(Quote:

MySQL doesn't have an Express version, and PT doesn't work with MySQL.
No SQL uses a hash password, (too insecure) and logging in to PT game.exe has nothing to do with your SQL password.
What is quite common, is "password incorrect" when ODBC is not configured correctly, or (if you use them instead) SQL.dll and Clan.dll are not properly edited.
Actually some mySQL tables use a hash algorithm, I've seen it before (they have the value, but then the server itself decrypts it). And I think mySQL can hash values if it wants to, you just have to set it.
And yes, logging into my account was what I was talking about not the game.exe XD. The game.exe worked excellently.
Anyways, it seems I did the ODBC correctly, but I'm not terribly sure what it does actually ( I just followed directions :,()
Hashing records, and hashing passwords are two different things. A hash match can speed up a record search, it isn't used as the only means of identifying a password, as that would effectively mean that more than one password would work to access the account. Encryption of passwords is used, and the encryption will be performed in accordance with a key, which may or may not be a hash value of some other indeterminate data.
Buy MySQL is no good for PT, and will interfere with it's operation.
If you use SQL.dll then ODBC isn't used (apparently) as SQL.dll accesses the database via MDAC... if you don't use SQL.dll (or it's not configured correctly) then the server will fall back to ODBC.
ODBC, MDAC and NCLI are APIs for database access, and allow you to use an external database rather than programming your own into your application.
What "account" are you trying to log in to? Your game account, PC account, ISP account, Server account, GM account, SQL account? ... hell you could be talking about a hotmail account.
If (as I suspect) you mean logging in to SQL via MS-SQL-SMS (SQL Management) then the most common reason for not being able to log in via the password you set is because that account has been locked out, and on modern hardware the most common reason for a root (administrator) account being locked out of SQL is the ODBC control panel described in this, and many older guides.
The only cure I know of is to roll back and try again, except that I would always apply the ODBC connection directly in the registry without the ODBC "Database Sources" applet.
Oh, I guess I should have been more clear. I was talking about my Private server game account I manually created in MySQL. Not my SQL account. I'm not terribly experienced in this area, so I'm sorry if I sound a bit confusing to you D: (it sounds good in my head :D).
EDIT: Do you know, by any chance, where the character information is stored in MySQL?
EDIT2: Well it looks like the character information is stored in dataserver/userdata/
MySQL has nothing to do with PT... it WILL NOT WORK!!!Quote:

If you have installed MySQL, there is no need to look for any other problem... this is it.
If you are repeatedly making typos saying MySQL when you mean MS SQL, please stop it.:lol:
Yes, MSSQL stored Login's and passwords, that's not nothing -_-. I've read somewhere that it is possible to use SQL as a data source instead of the .dats. I think it might have been you, I'll have to double check.Quote:

Waiting for reply ^^
Excelent tutorial, for what I could understand.
The server client got to be the same as the game client, use the search function and the right words in order to find what you're looking for. So just make sure they match and thats pretty much it. Oh try not to use your IP, go for localhost while you're testing your server + it makes it all much easier. And yes the final part of the guide IS missing, because something got screwed up while swezid were editing the guide some years ago. But it doesn't seem like hes coming back since he've been off for such a long while. Anyhow im sure there are other people in this section that may help you to make your server work :)
Peace
