I've spent quite a bit of time lurking on here but never made an account.
I take no credit for the server or the files.
Client set up is rather easy just go to :
// I recommend the alter of malice client but up to you.
Server setup is rather easy just go to :


1. run the EQ2emu that was installed to desktop.
2. Pay attention to what directory it was installed to, you may want to make a shortcut to desktop of the folder with the server files.
3. Install client by running Git-Client.bat
4. Once installed the client folder will be in the Zip folder drag that out to desktop.
5. In client folder you will want to modify eq2_default.ini to cl_ls_address 127.0.0.1:9100

ok so all of that is included in the links and should be easy to do.

after the first run of the server (eq2emu) you will want to edit it so it doesnt autoupdate every time you run it, so open with notepad or whatever text editor you use. and it will show you config settings in the first couple lines, make sure to only do this after youve succesefuly run the server yourself and logged into the game client, make sure to log out after youve got in.

Now that youu have edited config it should run server without updates.
once you have the server runing again, go to the folder that has the server files, and open the heidisql folder, launch heidisql then connect.

On the left hand side you should see some dropdowns , for example lootable and lootdrop.
If you want to edit rates you should edit both tables.

make sure to click on data to view all entries in the database now you can edit each entry 1 by 1 or you can run a query ( click on query) and edit all of one column at once like this :
UPDATE loottable SET lootdrop_probability= '100'
then run query and ignore warning.



You can do that for any column you want, after your done reset server.


For admin in world server type : makeadmin charnamehere 255

logout of client then back in.

client admin command list:

Easy item search function: in client type /itemsearch
