Unable to connect

i have everything right i followed a guide step by step, i editied my reg file, and the houtki file(or something like that), and the ldata file, i am new at making a pt server so i don't know if i might have done something wrong. to run the server i open lost tower 2.2v and then when i go to my client folder i open my client (1873_quantumfusion.exe) it loads up fine but when i put in my login info it says unable to connect, so i double checked my reg, and ldata files and they where all configured correctly, and even after this i still got the same problem (unable to connect). can anyone plz help me figure out this problem it will be appreciated

P.S i did use search, and did use the methods from the posts from the results, but i still couldn't get the server to work, btw i am using HerosPT game server http://heroespt.net/downloads.html (for more info)

[CODE]A8? $1@Q

what about the odbc part, what u did...

what do u mean, if u are talking about the reg file, i did post my config there on my first post and i executed it as u see it there, and if u are talking about the administrative tools odbc i did that as well, with sql.

i mean create and config the sql and configure it in the control panne (ODBC), and i guess u didnt, read againt the tutorials, u will find it.

that's what i ment i did that, i put all the db files in sql, then went to ODBC in control panel and made one for sql i already did all that

make you sure you did the ODBC part correctly
*alot ppl choose in the ODBC part Account_db wich should be AccountDb make sure its like that

double checked it's on accountdb

edit: i am no longer getting unable to connect, now i get connection failed :(

if you have dynamic ip so that the problem
and try run it with hamachi if its works then i think i know the problem

if you are going public you need to change the ip in the hotuk.ini, reg and idata, etc to your ip address which can be found at http://www.whatismyip.com. Make sure your version makes the server files you are using and the client files you are using otherwise you won't be able to connect. Make sure your SQL and ODBC is also correct. Once all of those are correct, if you use the right game.exe you should be able to enter you own server.

Note: I have not got my own server up yet, still looking for a game.exe to use that will work without modifications xD. If anyone can share a working game.exe in english for test version 1871. Thanks.

Hope that has helped you, if you follow the guides it should be dead easy.

thanks Soy, i've got the game up and running but now it is trying to connect to Sandurr's PT instead of mine.... what do I have to change now? Something with the game.exe or different?

look inside the game.exe i guess it is in the botton part, u should change ur ip inside with 127.0.0.1 to log in ur local server

ok i have hex edited my clent but now i get, "version client does not match", but my hotuk.ini is version 1873, and so is my game.exe so what is the problem.... if it's something i need to download for my version (probably a server) plz link it to me thx in advance

you are using the fusionPT re-pack right?

Ok lol, I have edited the game.exe so it connects to my server except i get 'unable to connect', I am positive I have checked everything is correct. Version is set at 1871.

yea i'm using fusion repack. and now i keep geting connection failed

just comment the version in the hotuk, in the ldata or what ever u activated it.

Hmm my version is correct and the other things match, i get 'unable to connect' though and i've troubleshooted lots of problems, no idea what to do. Any ideas?.

Edit: My server is now frequently crashing like every 10 minutes for some unknown reason, any ideas? thanks.

bugs like double monster files may crash the server (specially custom bosses),

i have deleted the daeth_knight.ini from the pt server files, but still i can't connect even though im sure i have done everything correct. *sigh*

the double monsters wont let or not connect to ur server, that will crash. To connecto to your server try deleting the clan.dll
Be sure ur odbc is in the right tab.

ok now i keep getting version does not match, can someone link me a gameserver version 1873 because my server is 1873, my cleint is 1873, but my gameserver is 1871... i think that is my problem

change the line in your hotuk.ini
*VERSION 1873
to
//*VERSION 1873


you can always enable this line again if you know the version of the executable

did that now i get "unable to connect" =( if it helps any this is how my -KPT-Endless-Tower-Update-V2.2.exe looks like as soon as it loads

im in the same boat, mine looks exactly the same as mafioso200's server.
