In this sections you need to write your IP address and all will be OK!

Ok here is the deal. I was tired of using old guides with files that wasent downloadable. So I made my own guide.

Content:

1. Server setup I (Installing Microsoft SQL Server (MSSQL))

2. Server setup II (Starting MSSQL service, downloading and extracting the mu server)

3. Adding ODBC links

4. Edit ips and password (Editing the ips and password for the MuServer)

5. Client setup + main.exe (Creating a client, launcher and replacing the main.exe)

1. Server setup I (Installing Microsoft SQL Server (MSSQL))

1. Download Microsoft SQL Server (MSSL) here

2. Run SQLEVAL.exe.
Make the installation folder "C:\SQLEVAL.exe"
Press "Finish"

3. Go to "C:\SQLEVAL"
Open autorun.exe
Select "SQL 2000 Server Compotents"
Select "Install Database Server"
Press "Next" four times, then "Yes".
Select "Server and Client tools" (Default)
Press "Next" two times.
Select "Use the Local System account" and press "Next"
Select "Mixed Mode (Windows Authentication and SQL Server Authentication)"
Type a password (This will be used in your mu server aswell)
Press "Next" and "Finish"

Now you have installed the Microsoft SQL Server!

2. Server setup II (Starting MSSQL service, downloading and extracting the mu server)

1. Go to "Start" -> "Microsoft SQL Server" -> Run "Service Manager" and press "Start"

2. Download the muserver from one of these mirrors:

SaveFile.com
Megaupload
Peecee
Uploading.com

3. Extract the muserver.rar to "D:\MuServer" (If you dont have D drive I recommend http://forum.ragezone.com/f196/guide...d-drive-61585/)

4. Go to "Start" -> "All Programs" -> "Microsoft SQL Server" -> Run "Enterprise Manager" - Then click on "SQL Server group" -> "(local) (Windows NT) -> "Databases"

5. Right click in the right coloumn (Where the databases are) and press "New database" - Call it MuOnline and press "Ok"
Right click in the right coloumn (Where the databases are) "New database" - Call it Ranking and press "Ok"

6. Remember to delete the files in "D:\Muserver\db"
Right click on the datbase "MuOnline" and go to "All Tasks" -> "Restore database"
Click on From Device
Click on Select Devices
Click on Add
Click on the "..." and go to D:\MuServer\db baks\ and select MuOnline
Go to options after pressing "Ok"

Here you can edit where the server should save log.

Press "Ok" two times

Do the same thing with the "Ranking" except the "File name:" should be Ranking instet of MuOnline

If you are having problems with this section I have added a picture that might help:
http://forum.ragezone.com/attachment...1&d=1193516826

Now you are finished. Go to the next step!

3. Adding ODBC links

1. Go to "Muserver\Utilities\ODBC" and run "dsnd.reg" (dsnc.reg is for C:\)
Press "Yes"

4. Edit ips and password (Editing the ips and password for the MuServer)

1. Go to "D:\Muserver\Utilities\IP-CHANGER"
Start "IpChanger.exe"
Change "Muserver" to your server name (Example The Mu Souls)
Change 80.172.121.132 to your ip (Go to Your IP: 208.116.34.18 for your ip)
Press "Atualizar" (Save)
Now it should show all the files beeing changed

2. Go to "Muserver\Links-D" and change 4.exe (Right click on it and press "Properties")
Change 81.198.129.112 to your ip
Do the same in 8.exe (There are two 81.198.129.112 this time)

These files are for starting the server manually instet of using the "MuServerStartup.exe"
The D in Links-D is for your harddrive letter (D:\)

3. Go to "D:\MuServer\MU2003_EVENT_SERVER\DATA" and open svconfig.ini
Change si26208$$ to your password (The one you set in MSSQL)
Do the same in "Muserver\RankingServer\svconfig.ini"

4. Now you should be ready to run your server!
You can start it by starting MUServerStartUP which is located in "D:\MuServer\" in the bottom

Remember to check if every ip and password is changed: (VERY IMPORTANT)
Muserver\data\lang\chs\commonloc.cfg
Muserver\data\commonserver.cfg
Muserver\data\IpList.dat
Muserver\Links-D\4.ink
Muserver\Links-D\8.ink
Muserver\MU2003_EVENT_SERVER\DATA\svconfig.ini
Muserver\RankingServer\svconfig.ini
Muserver\CS\data\Connectserverlist.dat
Muserver\CS\data\ServerList.dat
Muserver\CS\Connectserverlist.dat
Muserver\StartUp.ini

5. Client setup + main.exe (Creating a client, launcher and replacing the main.exe)

1. Download the client from one of these mirrors:
Rapidshare.com
Files.to
Megaupload.com

Extract to any where, then install anywhere (I installed it in C:\Program Files\mu-dauns)

2. Download the main.exe from on of these mirrors:
Megaupload.com
Savefile.com
Uploading.com
Peecee

Extract and put it in your client root (C:\Program Files\mu-dauns)
Replace it with the current main.exe

3. Go to "D:\Muserver\Utilities" and start Builder
Some information:
Name of the server: Your server name
Server page: Your server homepage/website/page
Server Hostname/IP/Your Ip(From www.myip.dk): Your ip from Your IP: 208.116.34.18
Server Port: Default is 44405

Here is how my launcher looks like: (This is just an example)
http://forum.ragezone.com/attachment...1&d=1190372883

Press "Build" and put the "Launcher.exe" into to your client root (C:\Program Files\mu-dauns)

Now you are ready to connect to your server!!

Please let me know if you have any ideas to the guide or if you get any errors :jester:
I think I remembered everything :)

That was all !! :D

Nice guide^^ was a lot of help. Getting this kind of error when I try to restore database "Too many backup devices specified for backup or restore; only 64 are allowed. RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.

Strange.

Trying to follow my guide to see if I get this error to

EDIT: Didn get any errors here :S

Are you sure you choosed MuOnline from db baks ?

btw, there was a virus on those files. Got it deleted though.

Which file was it and what is your anti-virus software?

great guide thx a lot
respect :)

Your welcome :)

Remember to post any errors!!

Cant remember such things. Anyway, norton antivirus. Got rid of the old error but now comes new one: How can I make it to D: If thats where my cd-rom is? :o

Change driver label...or just use any partition..should work

It is very important that you post the messages.

It can be Norton that is sensitive.

My anti-virus (avast) detects a "virus", but I am positve there is no virus in the server file.

The anti-virus just says so.

as RayOfLight said: Change System Drive Letter in Windows XP

Oh gosh just get partition magic 8 or better and it will do it for ya..u just need 3 or 4 clicks: Start it, Click Change driver label, select the driver's label u wanna change and select the new one..then just reboot ur pc..easy lol

Kinda only 3-4 clicks here too :P

But sure, both ways can be used.

very cool guide Thnx!But...i think MuServer can work on C:/ ;)

Thanks!

I got some errors when I used my C:\ so I am not quite sure that is correct but ok.

Its not that difficult to make D:\.

i know :) but can work in c:/ without errors :)..

Yeir sure

5. Client setup + main.exe (Creating a client, launcher and replacing the main.exe)

3. Go to "D:\Muserver\Utilities" and start Builder
Some information:
Name of the server: Your server name
Server page: Your server homepage/website/page
Server Hostname/IP: Your ip from Your IP: 208.116.34.18
Server Port: Default is 44405
Press "Build" and put the "Launcher.exe" into to your client root (C:\Program Files\mu-dauns)

Good day,

Your guide is very helpful to me. But I have some clarification.

On the above procedure, please ellaborate further on following;
1. Server Page - How to setup server homepage/website/page?
2. Server Hostname/IP: - can i put my own server PC IP address(192.168.1.51)?

Another thing, when I start the BUILDER there are many checkbox, what should I do with this?

Thanks.
PHYTON

1. Please follow this guide: http://forum.ragezone.com/f196/guide...images-303720/

The homepage is in the bottom of the guide (I have linked it in my topic, I will make a guide soon myself)

2. Yes you should put your ip from Your IP: 208.116.34.18 there. I have attatched a image in my topic

The another thing: Please see the attatched picture in my topic.

This is only an example.

But that is how my launcher looks like.

the muserverstart up does not work u.u it always tells me conection fails.

odbc.reg should go before starting the startup
and 97 version are created for D:/ and D:/ only. newer versions work on C:/ or both.
if u want 97 to work in C:/ go learn hex and hex the entire GS, and the .dlls with it, i think creting D:/ is easier :P

Muserver\data\lang\chs\commonloc.cfg
Muserver\data\commonserver.cfg
Muserver\data\IpList.dat
Muserver\Links-D\4.ink
Muserver\Links-D\8.ink
Muserver\MU2003_EVENT_SERVER\DATA\svconfig.ini
Muserver\RankingServer\svconfig.ini
Muserver\CS\data\Connectserverlist.dat
Muserver\CS\data\ServerList.dat
Muserver\CS\Connectserverlist.dat
Muserver\StartUp.ini

Yes i just checked now, all IPs and Psw are right.

I didnot use the luncher because it wont work, instead i create a shortcut in the main.exe and added this line to the property of the shortcut "c:\Dauns MuOnline Client 97d+99 items\main.exe" connect /u192.168.11.51 /p44405

192.168.11.51 is my server ip address. My MU works but during MU registration, they cann't register using the client pc. During registration, I use the server pc.
D:\Muserver\Utilities\MuEditor2.1\MuEdit.exe to registered the user.

Is there anyway we can register using the client pc, not the server pc?

You can create a website where people can reg? :S

The guide works 98%. I have many players now. But the problem is, New player cann't register in their client pc. Instead i use the server pc to register them. I didnt use the luncher 'cause it doesnt work in the client pc. Can anybody tell me what to do? I didnt want to bother the server pc just to register new MU player.

Another thing, is there a dark lord in this version? If so, any idea how to hav a dark lord character?

I hav installed the MuWeb0.6(nonrouter), but when i register using client pc, the VERIFY CODE doesnot display right. I cannt see the code. When i leave it blank, it say error bcause i hav to fill it up. I double checked the procedure and I think I did the procedure right. When I try to change the password of the existing player, it cannt login bcause the password is not right. I think they are not compatible with 0.97d MU bcause it is design to MU 1.2.

I use win2000 server and the guide uses winxp. Does this affect the CODE display during registration?

Can we update the MU? Can we add darklord? Any guide to update MU?
:gossip:

I would suggest you use a newer versions

cause I dont think thers any thing like "updating"

Just following the guide to 1.2Q server:
http://forum.ragezone.com/f196/guide...images-303720/
then check if you did anything wrong with this:
http://forum.ragezone.com/f196/guide...inutes-301422/

Im sorry to say that I dont have a soloution for your vertify code.

yes but what if we dont want to use a different version lol
i like 97d but it wont work for me

It works for others, so you did something wrong? <.<
