Can't get monsters and NPC's to work for some reason. I've put char and field where my server files are and still won't work. Anyone know whats up?
I have the same problem although I think I know why its happening. Are you running the server and the game on the same computer? If you are you should probably set up a dedicated server for it and run the client from a different computer.
we need to figure out what happened with the Area Server, i believe this is the one that will fix things up.
It seems to me that there are a few missing files in that release, unless someone can tell us how to get monsters and npc.
The login server, game server and area server are all in 4096.exe, except you can split it up into different servers to reduce lag, just by running 4096.exe on each server and changing the IP for *AREA_SERVER etc (I think).
Like I said, the problem may be just to do with running the server and client on the same PC, which is creating lag so the monsters and NPCs are not appearing. As to how some people got it to work like this though, I have no idea.
you need 2 installs of pt. one for server and one for the client. install pt, copy the whole folder to another location on your pc, put the server files in the folder you want to use as the server, run the 4096.exe from there. start your other normal install of pt and enjoy. everything should be working.
It's really easy to get them to work... lol
char & field => pt server folder => run the server... tuh duh!
If that doesn't work then your hotuk is f'ed lol
If you actually read the first post you would realise that we have already copied the char and field folders into the server folder. And hotuk isn't really that hard to configure so I doubt theres anything wrong with mine, I have tried writing my own from scratch about 3 times, and I have literally copied and pasted (with obvious modifications) a couple from here which people claim works perfectly for them, and none of them work.
Since I am getting "Reconnect Server(Main)" every couple of seconds I assume its due to lag caused by running the server and client on the same PC..
i run the client and server on the same pc. it really sounds like your hotuk.ini is screwed if your getting reconnect errors. if u have *CRAZY_PACKET in your .ini take it out.
I don't have *CRAZY_PACKET in my ini. I will post my ini here to see if anyone can find a problem with it.

Whats *SERVER_AUTOPLAY supposed to do? Whenever I use it I just get this:
However, I just commented that out, now I am not getting any reconnects (afaik), but there are sill no monsters or npcs. I heard somewhere that I may have to wait a few minutes for them to appear so I will see.Code:Server State
Users : 0
Monsters: 77
RecvMsg : 0
Thread: ( Snd:0 Rcv:0 )
RouteError: 0
ConnectError : 0 (0)
Nope, still no npcs or monsters, I was waiting for about 20 minutes and nothing happened.
I figured out its setting *AREA_SERVER which causes all the reconnects.. but something tells me I need the area server for monsters and npcs..
if u dont get any npc// monsters copy ur char and field from prisontale game folder to ur server folder and it will work 100%
tested and working 100% happy gaming :P
...
Again, read previous posts before posting.
That has already been said twice before in the topic, even though the topic starter said he had already done that, I have also already done that..
Ok I got my monsters and NPCs working, it seems that the *SERVER_AUTOPLAY is pretty essential after all, and even though it comes up with an error, you are still able to connect.
Now for the translating and modifying :D
Yeah all works good for me all npc and mobs is spawning
But i HATE that crappy !!! gamecontrolls !!!
To kill an mob i have to click on the mous like hell
and when you dualclick you fucking character will autorun/go
and all is invertmous etc
Can somone tips how i change this settings ? Tanks
