Hey guys,
I just want to ask if somebody can help me to set up an RoM private server. I just want to play woth some friend via hamachi and I think that your guide is verry verry good, but I dont know what I have to do in "step 5" and "step 8". I never worked with SQL Server Managment... so maybe some of you can help me. Just send me an PM
I am no expert, but maybe this will help. Typing this from memory so it might not be perfect, sorry. (Not at home)
Step 5: Open SQL Management and expand the "Security" folder, right click and create user. username needs to be romuser and password should be at least 6 characters I think for the encryption tool to work properly. I just checked everything for rights, but I believe you can just choose "sysadmin" maybe for rights.
Once that is done exit and log back in as romuser into SQL management, then restore the ROM databases with that account.
Step 8: This is a little tricky to explain. In a command line, type "C:\Runewaker\Server\Realm_01_Service\Realm_01_Service\playercenter.exe" "playercenter.ini"
(edit as needed depending on where you setup your server)
You should get a popup of an error message. Keep it open and then open the "RAPasswordEncode.exe" file (under runewaker\tools folder, I think).
In the username field type: runewaker
In the password field type: the error code you got from command line
This will give you a long code. Paste this code in the playercenter.ini file (I think, maybe datacenter.ini?)
Using the same RAPasswordEncode.exe tool, enter username: romuser and password: (password you set for the romuser account in SQL management). This will give you a code. This code needs to be put in almost all the .ini files in the db_password field. (pretty much every line below ones in ini files that say "romuser" is a password field) (be sure to do all ini files in account, services, and zone)
Hopefully that helps some
: as I mentioned, I am no expert, but I do have a server running.
