-Latest Version of Navicat (Google it)

1. Installing MySql (Make sure you have what the pictures have)

Spoiler

It says reconfigure for me because I already have this installed. It should say like "Configure now" or something like that for you

Make sure everything is checked here

Make sure "Include Bin Directory in Windows PATH" is UNCHECKED

Ignore the top of this. Just put in you password and make sure "Create and Anonymous account" is unchecked

Then just click finish and execute and wait for it to finish.

2.Setting up the Database and Navicat

Spoiler

MAKE SURE TO EXTRACT THE DATABASE TO THE SERVER FOLDER

I couldn't make pictures cuz my Navicat expired lol. So I'll explain it

Install Navicat.
Open it
Click on Connection and go to MySQL.
Than you have to type it in like this:

Connection Name: localhost
Hostname/IP address: localhost
Port: 3306
Username: root
Password: (here your password you used when you created your MySQL Server)

And click "Test Connection".
If it's Successful click ok.
If it's Failure check everything if everything is filled out right and try again.

Now double click on MySql.
There should be some databases under it. Don't touch those. Rgh click it and click "Create New Database"
Name the database "pokeconnect" without the ""
Then double click it.
Then right click it.
And click "Execute SQL File"
Open the database you extracted to the server folder.
Click "Start" and wait for it to finish.
When it finishes click "Close" and you can close out of Navicat.
You're done with the hardest part

3.Setting up the Client

Spoiler

Go to Client/Res
Find the servers.txt file.
Change 127.0.0.1 to your IP or just leave it .

Make sure the IP and the server name are the same on the Server.bat and the servers.txt

Common issue(s)

Q-Doesn't work. Nothing starts!!
A-Reinstall Java. Install the on I gave you.

Q-Can't connect to my server!
A- Make sure you typed in the correct mysql password and IP typed in. If it still doesn't work,try updating to a newwer version of mysql

Client features: Already has the Sprite change NPC put in.
Already has timezone fix.
Already has shiny Pokemon

Do you know what the requirement is for the database location is. I'm trying to get it to run off a databse on a website, but it won't work. i tried ***.com and ***.com/ with the database name in the next field, the user and pass are correct. But it won't let me login or register. I know everything works fine as i had it running of localhost with no problems.

 

[lcey]

Try hamachi . Or simply Buy a VPS.

Instead of using 127.0.0.1, put in your hamachi address. Or try to go to CMD, type in "ipconfig" and put in you IPv4 address. Hope this helped.

 

[DeathLord17]

Do not worry, i have fixed it.

I already have a dedicated webhost, i was attempting to get it to save onto the database there. I got it working now so no need to thret.

 

[lcey]

Great. Good luck.

 

[DeathLord17]

Thanks, i already have done a few things:
Only available language option is english. So this is automatically chosen and language choice screen is removed.
Private server text and button removed
Servers will not appear unless they are located in the list (removes all unnecessary boxes)
Help box has been made better, now shows more info.
Fullscreen button removed, weather button put into place and save button moved up.
Chat box updated, now says your rank [mod].[admin],[owner] before local chat messages
Added these commands so far:
/commands, /modcommands, /admincommands, /ownercommands.
you do require the correct rights to see the commands of each (mod an d above for mod, etc)
/makeplayer, /makemod, /makeadmin, /makeowner but have a few bugs, sometimes you revert back to the adminlevel you had before command

xD Wish you the best of luck. Hopefully you can make some interesting things <3

 

[DeathLord17]

Haha thanks, what kind of things would be interesting to you in the game?
Atm i can't make heads or tails of how to make it use the normal player saving method so i may just make the server access the database from using the commands like /makeplayer, /makemod and change adminlevel directly. Mainly because the change is only temporary, it doesn't get saved to the database on exit.

Okay, I've fixed the problem with not saving player rights. On the logout method i added this:

m_database.query("UPDATE pn_members SET adminLevel='" + player.getAdminLevel() + "' WHERE id='" + player.getId() + "'");

I put it like this

		//Finally, store that the player is logged out and close connection
		m_database.query("UPDATE pn_members SET lastLoginServer='null' WHERE id='" + player.getId() + "'");
		m_database.query("UPDATE pn_members SET adminLevel='" + player.getAdminLevel() + "' WHERE id='" + player.getId() + "'");
		System.out.println("Saved player rights.");
		m_database.close();
		GameServer.getServiceManager().getMovementService().removePlayer(player.getName());
		return true;

So now it saves and loads the correct adminRights.

So, nothing appears after you have opened the pokenet.bat for client.

 

[FinalNotice]

yes...nothing appears after i open the pokenet.bat~
i use window 7 x86

 

[DeathLord17]

I am using W7 x86 Ultimate too, this is my pokenet.bat

java -Djava.library.path=lib/native -jar Pokenet.jar > pokenet.log

If that doesn't work, try this

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin\java.exe" -Djava.library.path=lib/native -jar Pokenet.jar > pokenet.log

 

[FinalNotice]

:*::*: still not work..

 

[DeathLord17]

Which client are you using?
If you're using the one that is located on the svn, then have you got the updated LIB folder?
