Hello guys, this is just a simple guide on how to setup Raiderz server.

All the links are dead. Please source for the files yourself

Firstly, let's start off with the things you need:

Databases:
Link 1
Files:
Link 1
Mirror:
Mirror1

Connection redirect for client:
Link 1

Client:
Link 1
Link2



Microsoft SQL 2008R2 [You need R2, otherwise, you won't be able to restore the database.]

Step 1:

Install Microsoft SQL 2008 R2

Click next all the way till Database Engine Configuration

Security Mode — select Mixed Mode Authentication
Username - sa
Password - whatever you want


Step 2:

Extract Database and the server files.

Open up Microsoft SQL 2008 R2

You will be presented with this:
k9GZE - Raiderz Server Setup - RaGEZONE Forums


Follow the screenshot, password would be the one you input @ step 1.

Once your done, we can move on to creating the database.

Right click Database:
xPDjZ - Raiderz Server Setup - RaGEZONE Forums


Select New database, database name would be: RZ_ACCOUNTDB
Do the same for RZ_GAMEDB and RZ_LOGDB

Now you got the databases setup, but you still need to restore them.
hH7i7 - Raiderz Server Setup - RaGEZONE Forums


Restoring:
fn6jT - Raiderz Server Setup - RaGEZONE Forums


To database -> RZ_ACCOUNTDB
Select 'From device:' and select the RZ_ACCOUNTDB.BAK from where you had extracted it in the starting of step 2.
Tick RESTORE

After that, go the OPTIONS in the top left hand corner.

Tick: 'Overwrite the existing database'

Do this for RZ_GAMEDB and RZ_LOGDB also.

Now we are done for the database.

Step 3:

Setting up ODBCAD

Go to start>run type odbcad32.exe

Click System DSN tab.

Click Add

Click SQL Server Native client 10.0 and click finish

gEHNr - Raiderz Server Setup - RaGEZONE Forums


Name: whatever you want
Description: whatever you want
Server: (local)

Click next, tick SQL Server authentication

Login ID: sa
Password: whatever you input in step 1


Click next

Tick Change the default database to:

and select RZ_ACCOUNTDB and click your done.

let's move on to server files now.

Step 4:

QUvzl - Raiderz Server Setup - RaGEZONE Forums


Copy gameserver2 and paste it. You should have gameserver2 - copy now.

Go to gameserver folder, copy server.ini and paste it in gameserver 2-copy

Setting up the server.ini for:

AppServer
GameServer2
GameServer2 - copy
Login Server
Master Server
server.ini

For each folder, there's a server.ini

ebpyD - Raiderz Server Setup - RaGEZONE Forums


Follow my config.

Set ODBC = "SQL Server"

Public_IP/Master_server_ip = your ip

Password = whatever you input @ step 1

Do this for all folders.


Step 5:

Setting up client:

Install the Raiderz client.

Once your done, extract the connect.rar to the Raiderz directory.

Open up Connect.txt and input your ip address.


Final Step:

Start all 5 servers

Once you see 'All server started'

IC0yN - Raiderz Server Setup - RaGEZONE Forums


Do take note that you have to run the gameserver.exe from gameserver2, gameserver2-copy and not gameserver.

With that, you can start up RaiderZ launcher and input any account from RZ_ACCOUNTDB. AND HAVE FUN !

W/o them, this wouldn't be possible !


Lastly, none of this server files/databases/client or any files that are related to MAIET/Raiderz are hosted/owned by me.


To add on:

for GM commands, you can type in /help, @help or use the console(shift+~) to view the command.

ODBC also Sets normally.
