if the problem comes from questloader.lib
Just copy your current version to the library outside the project and you should be fine.

I’ve used visual studio 2022 community 17.2.6 I think. Maybe newer versions don’t like that.
Here is what you can do:

1. AceOnline-ep46\Server\XmlRpc\XmlRpc.sln – retarget to vs2022 if it asks you to do so, then build it in “Release” configuration
2. AceOnline-ep46\Server\ZipArchive\ZipArchive.sln – retarget to vs2022 if it asks you to do so, then build it in “Release STL MT” configuration
3. for client AceOnline-ep46\Client\BaseClasses\baseclasses.sln – retarget to vs2022 if it asks you to do so, then build it in “Release” configuration
4. Copy QuestLoaderLib.lib from \Build\Lib to Lib folder in the root of repository

Btw i'm talking about the source from the github repository, not the original vs2019 source

I used binary version. When I start Server Management, I got errors that can't connect to the DB. On log files, it showed that DB password was incorrect. Do we use id/password = atum/callweb for creating a user on MSSQL?

• gets weird error,
• how do i turn on debug output

I found such a thing:

d3dapp.cpp

default: _tcscpy( strMsg, _T("Generic application error. Enable\n") _T("debug output for detailed information.") );

Hi I'm a complete newbie to running a private server and really my intention is just to run a local instance to play around with and study it and have a better understanding of how ACE online works since I'm in the planning phase of creating a AO like SP game in the Halo Reach MCC (Blam!) engine since the dev tools have been released for Halo MCC.
I'm just having no luck at getting this run, following your guide and St34lth4ng3l database guide. I think the issue I have is a .config path error and/or the server isn't connecting to the SQL database :?: as the moment I run the watchprocess.exe I get a wall of errors on each server component.

Thanks in advance It's really hard to follow a lot of the guides here since there is so much conflicting information and sources. I saw your github and I think getting a centralized repo on this game would be most beneficial.

By default, these files are set up to connect to database using "atum" user and "callweb" password. Make a new login with these credentials for your database and see if this fixes things
When starting a MSSQL management Studio you should be able to login with "atum" user and "callweb" password if everything is done correctly.

Yep no thats been checked and looks good. I gutted my SQL installation and ran everything from scratch again.
No dice
The moment I run watchprocess.exe I get a load configuration error among others with the other processes .
There's nothing with the config files I need to change other than the global IP address? correct? I know I'm getting filtered by something really stupid, I wonder if I should use a vpn (Hamachi) if that makes a difference.

Don’t use watchprocess - it’s broken with 4.6 files for some reason. Go to bin folder and launch all 9 servers by hand or start Vasma_Manager and wait for a bit.
If that won't work then there's not much I can do without logs from server's folder

hello, when I come to the city, the material screen does not come and sometimes it kicks it out of the game.(ep4.6).
