1. Define new items, if you mean PWI items like r9 nirv etc, then yes.
2. I don't get what you are asking here either, but you can edit the cubi shop very easily
3. Easy to do, it is just one config file
4. I would recommend this: http://forum.ragezone.com/f694/compl...ackage-736572/ it is the most up to date.
5. To make it public you have to set it up with an IP assigned to the server from your router, to make it public you enable port forwarding on your router for port 29000 to the server.
6. Use tools, mostly pwtools.codeplex.com, then upload the stuff to the server and put it in the client and you are away

1. I am not going to get into the politics of this, and am just going to say, at the moment, consider the only classes available are the original 6 classes
2. There is a mod for this somewhere, I forget where now, it is old and can not be added to your client easily, I might upload them sometime with a better method of adding them to ones client.
3. Well, ofc it is possible, you would have to set up paypal and php scripts for it etc

It runs on your internet

Excuse me if I am incorrect, but it does sound to me like you want to dive into this head first. Only problem is, you forgot to put the water in the pool (and you're about to leap off a 30ft diving board!)... People like me have been 'tinkering' around with 'these files' for like 3 years (and STILL do not even 'run' a "public" server)! So... if this is the case; you may want to 'slow your roll' :wink: Also, (which could be a big part of it) again excuse me if I'm wrong but, it seems you may be interested in it primarily for the $$$, yet another WRONG reason to be doing something like this (It's hard not to think this when your first post involves asking about '3.donation system'). However, now that I have that out of the way:

To supplement what Nameles said: 1-4 have already been answered here 1,000,000 times ~ and information on all can be found if you READ through ALL the posts in this section (/f452 & subs). Your #5 is basic networking, which you should know before attempting to run even a WEB server, let alone a PW server!... (http://forum.ragezone.com/f695/absol...6/#post6038760) & #6, same as #1-4.

As far as:

#1 NO - we aren't going to talk about 1.4.4 unless someone releases it 'publicly' ~ and any attempt to do so will wind you with an infraction/closed or deleted thread!
#2 sure, technically you could do anything you want to, depends on HOW dedicated you are to it. Put a few years in and then you may actually figure out something that hasn't yet been thought of, or posted about here :wink:
#3 NO - I personally will NOT help with this; as my personal belief is that this should be done as a PURE hobby and NOT to net any profit or involve any money! (If you poke around here enough I'm sure you'll find my rants about this). So short answer "NO, I don't think donations are 'right' we should be doing this for the FUN of it!"

Spoiler:

If you want to know my REAL feelings on it: This is a HOBBY for us, we did NOT create this game, we do NOT own it (in short it is stolen) therefore this game/product is NOT our 'living' or 'livelihood' -- therefore it is merely a HOBBY (as the game IS the "livelihood" of Perfect World Beijing and PWE)... Therefore WE should incur ALL costs associated with running a server, no matter what. Whether it be purchase of physical machines, rental, internet/bandwidth (anything associated with running it)...

If you do not agree with me, that is your RIGHT! However, I must now ask that you send me $20 ~ so I can go see a movie tonight (that's really no different than asking for or even merely accepting donations from players!) Seriously there is no difference; going to watch a movie at a theater would be a 'hobby' or something that does not HAVE to be done; well neither is running a PW server, so, why ask for or even accept donations! So like I said, don't agree with me - I would happily accept a payment from you TO me in the amount of $20 (so I could go see a movie tonight) THANKS!

4. I would recommend this: http://forum.ragezone.com/f452/perfe...ackage-736572/ it is the most up to date.

I did fail to mention, if you're still interested (after my 'little lecture' :lol: ~ if you're 'in it "for the right reasons"') this: http://forum.ragezone.com/f694/compl...2/#post6233347 would be the most comprehensive and 'up-to-date' release... If you dedicate yourself to it, you will learn a lot (off of any release / over time)... I would not recommend attempting to 'run' any 'release' "as is" ~ they are not meant for that (you'd have nothing that separated your server from the other 2,000 people that downloaded it!)... "Releases" are primarily good for learning (or running a little server for just a few friends and yourself)... If you want to go 'big time' you need to be well established in your knowledge of this server AND client, so you can create something that would entice users to want to play on your server, something that makes it different than the other 2,345,324,645,672,452,342,467,235,346,800 private servers out there!

Technically both, if you have any idea how a client / server relationship works... Both you (as a server) and the (player) Client (as a client) are using both your up and down streams to communicate data between the client and server... Of course the most important aspect of a server is your uplink speeds, since they are almost always slower than your downs.

Spoiler:

One little crappy example:

CLIENT-xx UPS to server PLAYER_XX_MOVES_TO_##
SERVER DOWNS from client-xx PLAYER_XX_MOVES_TO_##

SERVER UPS to client-yy PLAYER_XX_MOVED_TO_##
CLIENT-yy DOWNS from server PLAYER_XX_MOVED_TO##

Now, in this crappy example (even though not real 'commands') makes it possible for YOUR client to show MY character moving from point A to point B!

Again, if you're looking to host a 'small time' server (maybe like 10~50 people) you MAY be able to do this on your residential internet connection. If you're looking to host a 'big time' server (ie. 500+ clients simultaneously), you will NOT be able to run one of these out of your house! You WILL need to start looking into some pretty serious services like: renting a dedicated server, purchasing a physical machine and utilizing co-hosting/co-location, and many many more potential options...!

Connection speed (and bandwidth) is probably the #1 most important factors (even above and beyond machine specs: like CPU and ram)... If you would like to read more on speed: http://forum.ragezone.com/f452/inter...server-701418/

Though I have still not actually tested it, we figure about 50kbit/s PER player (which is what your UPLOAD speed has to match). So it's roughly:

YOUR_CONNECTION_SPEED_IN_kbit/s * .8 / 50 = MAX_#OF_PLAYERS

So, for example:

If you had a connection that was

30 mbit/s down
4 mbit/s up

you would take 4 mbit/s = 4,000 kbit/s

4,000 * .8 = 3200 / 50 = MAX PLAYERS 64

SO, on a 4 mbit/s uplink connection, theoretically you could have a max limit of 64 simultaneous players (any more and all players would have major lag)!

One more:

24 mbit/s down
3 mbit/s up

3 mbit/s = 3,000 kbit/s

3,000 * .8 = 2400 / 50 = MAX PLAYERS 48

SO, on a 3 mbit/s uplink connection, theoretically you could have a max limit of 48 simultaneous players (any more and all players would have major lag)!
[so if you wanted to host a server capable of 500 simultaneous players you would need at LEAST a 31 mbit/s uplink connection]

Well, you'll have to excuse me for this one 343, but I'm going to make a comment here that is absolutely needed:

As far as the new classes (specifically genesis. aka 1.4.4) goes, most of the skills use attack levels and defense levels. Don't believe me? look it up. These classes CANNOT function on our server files because we cannot use attack levels.

also, even if you somehow managed to get them working you would not be able to use them effectively, for the above reason.

The files we have are (if I have been reading this correctly) 1.2.6, hybrided with 1.3.6. many of the functions we'd like to have just simply don't exist. If someone releases 1.4.4 we will be able to use these, but as of right now, some servers exist, but the files are being EXTREMELY guarded.

I'm gonna say this

Did none of you check the dates? The last post 01-03-10 08:26 PM and the guy last visited a year ago. I'm sure they wont even read the answer. While this may be helpful to some most of the information is out there already.

lol I blame 343 :P

:O Didn't even notice the dates lol

silly me :(

Holy crap, yea I fell victim too :(:

I have a tendency to 'click - last post' which ofc brought me to the post by Nameles, so I chimed in. Dayumnnnnnn

I hereby officially blame "xfighter2007", the first to attempt to resurrect this dead ass thread :lol:

Anywhoot, I am not going to delete it since I made that long ass write up, I will however :closed_2:

and thank you for pointing that out Drakaer !

:closed_2::closed_2:

*points to mod tools > lock button*

2nd time this has happened. I don't trust that little tick box any more (there is a little tick box for me so that I can make a post and "check here to close thread" with post, this is now the 2nd time I've used it and it hasn't worked *grr*

Note to self: manually lock threads from now on :lol:
