No, if my server is down I'm probably busy. I'll be back on sooner or later. Relax.

But if you made some progress post some pics so when I come here I can see.

And my forums is back up...until I screw it up again

I've been talking to some people who know compiling and c# so when I get some replies on that I might be able to figure it out from there.

IGNORE THAT retard saying windows vps. Request cleaning of thread.

I think I found the answer to that whole compiling issue.

Yay. I might be on TS tonight, and being able to do stuff.

I'm not in the dust yet! IIS7 did it's trigger ****, replaced my home page... so I hooked my EA Files with IIS, now everything works!

Still on the compilin issue doe.

Made alot of progress. I suggest using Windows Server 2003, so you don't run into clumps of Bs.

Recommended programs -
EA Server Files
IIS 6
MySQL Community Server
MySQL Workbench
Windows Server 2003
ASPNET AJAX 1.0/2.0
Microsoft DirectX August 2008
Visual Studios 2005

If you're running Windows 7 be sure to install IIS 6 from Control Panel > Programs and Features > Turn Windows Features on or Off and enable all the IIS 6 compatibility options. If you're running Windows XP it should be fine just to install it normally from Add/Remove programs.

With DirectX be sure to get the SDK version as you get developer tools need for compiling the LIB files.

I'm not sure but I think Visual Studio 2005 SP1 might need to be the Pro Edition...still working on that issue.

Also not sure you need Windows Server 2003 as IIS is a stand alone web server. However it says it's a requirement for VS but I don't know if W7 and IIS 7 were updated to run all that. After solving a bunch of other issues the ASP.NET web error page is saying it can't connect to the SQL database. I'm about to change from MySQL to MS SQL just because of proprietary conflicts I suspect might be going on.

Not sure I'd *recommend* any programs or apps just yet.

Yea... but if they wanna stay up with us and/or help us... then they might wanna match the programs. Abyss won't be needed with IIS.

They're on my website but I have it down while I'm changing servers and software. I'll restore them as soon as possible. Perhaps Nucious has a link he can help with in the meantime?

Hmm, seems if you change your password, you can't reply until you log out and back in...

Been reading previous posts on this thread, found new info that wasn't available last time I tried (about a year ago)

Will post progress.

 

[Peregrine01]

ewww....

when I run eoserv, seems I'm missing some maps...

WTF???

finally got eoserv running

still missing maps messages, but apparently those are complaints, not errors.

now, I need to install a client

that's gonna be hell, because I have an Intel 8215 graphics controller

any info?

ok...I found a neat graphics engine called Irrlicht

now I need to read the .exg and .txb map files.

anybody out there?

well, I've found the are two different .exg file formats.

one is used by CAXA, a chinese CAD software developer (not likely)

the other is used by ExelGaming, but I haven't been able to ID the software they are using.

will keep looking

finally got frustrated enough to look at the files using a hex editor

OMG!

World Object Lists

glad i took a computer graphics class....

If your talking about endless online, your in the wrong place, this is thread is about endless ages, the mmorpgfps

 

[Peregrine01]

I began playing Endless Ages a few days after Gold was released.

Only wish I'd gotten the two free months for Beta players.

If my memory serves me right, Gold was released in December 2001?

--------------------------------------------------------------

wait a minute...I just woke up at 2am and something is wrong...

eoserv would be endless online, not endless ages.

crap, that means I need to sort out the server again, as well

I don't understand...I got the server the same time BoTGoD released the data files....

the same time they wrote the instructions for setting up the server

ah, well, just another egg to fry

 

[Nucious]

I smell bullshit....

 

[Peregrine01]

ok...I redownloaded all the files again (except ea-tools, but I have those anyway)

checked them, and they are the same as I have

except...I seem to have an extra SERVER folder, which obviously is the EO server

the way I figure, when the files were released, everyone was begging for info about how to set up the server, someone posted he had info and I ended up getting the tutorial for EO.

so, I'm back to working on a client that doesn't require a high-end video card.

you see, I had a better computer (actually several) back then, I'm using an old one now.

still have one of the others, one I built from scratch, gave it to mom when I bought a new one, but it died when she had it put in her house.

tried putting the NVidia TNT2 card from it in my box, but wasn't able to get it to work.

anyways, back to the grindstone. at least I have something to keep me busy...heh

ooooh...just read the rest of the server files thread, you guys are fiesty...haha
