[Tutorial] Mabinogi Heroes Setup

I have sql 2014 with c9 server created, I have to uninstall sql 2014?
How do I maintain the c9 server and create the vindictus server?

This guide also works for eu server and client?

This topic really helpful, thanks for everyone.
I want to know,anyone knows how to change the background movie when you putin the userid and password

Triple edit: OK! I have had success! I can login and everything. Now, if I want to update my server to v1.69, what do I do with these files on this page? Do I need to do anything special to update to v1.69 and also to change from the TW client to the EU client?

I'm having trouble running the run server if someone can help me.Remembering esou in this post to create a server 1.65 thanks

for some reason i just cannot get the client to connect to the server and see server list, its always empty why?
my wamp webserver is working properly and i can access 127.0.0.1,1433 for server and 127.0.0.1/endpoint.txt for client yet the client doesnt see it why?
the nmconnew.ini has 127.0.0.1 adresss in it and i already edited the hosts file with the localhost still doesnt work

i have the 1.69 client and im just not sure what files should i place in there, should i use the heroes3.db and heroesdatabase3.db or just xml editing im confused what to do someone help??

i have read every single page here but i cannot solve this(windows 10)
Imgur: The most awesome images on the Internet

RCClient gets installed so easly but RCServer is just a big bitch:P
i did try every other method to install it , it did get installed and running , but i believe it is not running correctly ,i cant get the services in OPtool to show up , all my settings are correct , from pc name to sa password , my sql is connected with no problem, my web is also connected correctly. i have no idea what to do xD

EDIT: Ok turns out i had to just replace HOSTNAME with my pc name without putting "-pc" at the end lol

My NMServer keep displaying this message while i try to login the server.
I'm stock here. Please help me:*:

i am not lucky and still have this problem :(

Sooo, first hello guys !

Here's my problem, i'm able to launch everything, pass tutorial, talk to the girl, create my character but right after when i'm supposed to be in town i have a black screen.

Any tips ?

Anyone happen to know why I'm getting this error? I haven't changed any of the folder structureshttps://i.imgur.com/wOHEsBZ.png :/

For some reason I cant download the client/server from mega.
The only thing I need to download is MHTW.z09 but is says temporary error retrying and nothing happens.

Don't use this client, find the EU version. It‘s more compatible and more contents

Easy lets go through the setup shall we?

NOTE: disable all network adapters you don't need to be connected with or you WILL have issues.

Also let me make this very clear in the best way I know how.

IF YOU ARE TRYING TO RUN THIS ON A VPS OR DEDICATED MACHINE THIS TUTORIAL WILL NOT HELP YOU. THERE ARE OTHER STEPS REQUIRED FOR A WAN CONNECTION THIS IS ONLY FOR LOCALHOST!

Now that that's out of the way


Update:
For those that followed the tutorial to get rid of the first time login error
replace start.bat with this

PHP Code:

---

vindictus.exe -stage -dev -lang zh-tw-x-gm -noupdate

Software requirements

1. MSSQL Server Express 2016
2. SQL Server Management Studio
3. Visual C++ redistributable 2012
4. Microsoft .NET 4.5
5. WAMPServer or some webserver
6. MHTW Client and Server

First things first
Install .NET, and WAMPServer(or the webserver of your choosing FIRST before following this tutorial)


SQL Server

Spoiler:

This setup process is pretty easy but requires some fine tuning during the setup
Go through the setup following the default settings for everything until you get
to where you name your instance, and name it anything besides SQLEXPRESS.


http://puu.sh/pRfWD.png




The most important part is setting up Mixed Mode Authentication.
It must be Mixed Mode Authentication.




http://puu.sh/pRg0A.png




Once you enter in the password for sa you can optionally add your current windows user as an admin
continue the install.
Once completed open up the SQL Server 2016 Configuration Manager


Setup your protocols for whatever you named your instance like so


http://puu.sh/pRfuD.png


Then Native client 11.0 Configurations(both)


http://puu.sh/pRfzQ.png


Once completed go up here and restart the services for your database(Note: may not look the same depending on features/version of sqlsvr)


http://puu.sh/pRfN7.png




Congratulations, we are going to check your connection in the next section.

SMSS

Spoiler:

Basic install.
If you can't click next a few times you shouldn't even be here.


Once done installing we are going to test your connection settings.
all you have to do is enter your loopback address and port number like so




http://puu.sh/pRgck.png




If it connects, great! You can follow basic instructions, you have impressed me :)
Keep it open because its time to move on.

Time to move on to


RESTORING THE DATABASES

Spoiler:

This is a pretty simple process but we will go over it anyways just to make sure.


With the set of server files you downloaded you will need to restore the databases from the database folder
in SMSS right click on your Databases folder and select restore Database.




http://puu.sh/pRgx6.png




Select device, the elipses, then file, add, then navigate to your database folder from the zip file
and restore ONLY the ones in the folder. You have to select and restore 1 at a time




http://puu.sh/pRgFX.png




Leave the default settings for the restore




http://puu.sh/pRgGO.png




Repeat this until you are done with the databases.




http://puu.sh/pRgJz.png




yay you are ready to move on.

Configuring the server

Spoiler:

Congratulations on making it this far...
Now its time to actually start setting up the servers.


go into Server/RCServer and edit RCSConfig.xml


Change every instance of HOSTNAME to the name of your pc(IT MUST BE IN CAPS)
ie if your computer name is ragezone-pc put RAGEZONE-PC In the fields.




http://puu.sh/pRh3k.png






Next Edit the password fields in this area in ServiceCore.Dll.Config




http://puu.sh/pRhGb.png




Open a command prompt windows with administrative privledges and
navigate to your Server folder and run InstallServices.bat




http://puu.sh/pRhrJ.png




Open your windows hosts file and add the following settings

PHP Code:

---

127.0.0.1     mhtwcheck.garenanow.com
127.0.0.1    hereospatch-gm.nexon.com 
127.0.0.1    shop.heroes.garena.tw
127.0.0.1    service.garena.tw
127.0.0.1    heroes.garena.tw
127.0.0.1    image.garena.tw
127.0.0.1    gamelog.heroes.nexon.com 


---

Move everything from your webserver folder into your HTDOCS/www Folder
move everything from the client folder into your MHTW folder.

Run the servers

Spoiler:

Go to your server folder and run NMServer.exe
Then open the HeroesOpTool folder and run HeroesOpTool.exe
Login info is root/root
Click Server State and
You will be met with this screen afterwards.




http://puu.sh/pRky9.png




tick the checkbox next to Test Server to bring up all the services




http://puu.sh/pRkBe.png




drag and grab all the services and click start..
Once they all say on you are good to go.

Running the client

Spoiler:

Go into your client folder and click start.bat
login with any username/password the account will be created
The first time you try and login it will give you a server maintence error.
Thats normal, just login again same user/pass and its ready.

Congratulations you have completed this tutorial and should be able to play.

Dont use AppServ, try to install Xamp.

Hi everyone, Hi jhon007 and thanks for your help! I have exactly the same situation, every service running well, i use Xampp, transfered file of Web folder to Htdocs folder of xampp and i have started only Apache service with another port (8080) and i can connect to 127.0.0.1:8080 index in my browser.. But i don't see any server listed when i try to connect in game and it give me Maintenence error!! Please help me, i still don't find a solution!! :(

EDIT: SOLVED: In my case i don't have to change Port 80 in another port (i changed it in xampp with port 100)!! If i changed it i couldn't connect and didn't see any server in list.. Solution--->Opend Prompt command with adim rights and write NET STOP W3SVC (This service is in conflict with port 80 and doesn't allow you to start the game!!)
