Last speech I would like to share.
It's realy nice to see people are still busy with this project! How you all work so hard to figure out how Runes of Magic server works, it is quite amazing to see. Right now I have almost 6 months of experience in this, so neither am I the best in this.

, I can say: Keep this all for yourself, run your own server at home to have fun for yourself. I do like competition, but please let it be someone who realy knows what he is doing. At the moment there has been a new private server fired up online. People who don't even know what they are doing and derping about 8 years of experience. And not much improvements. It's annoying me realy much and it just wasting my time. I risked a lot to get this far, I risked my real life to get this so far. And I putted a lot money in this and the bills still coming. If you think you are able to do this too, then go for it. But for your own sake, if you have 10.000 euro in your pocket to invest on hardware, then at least you have a start margin to make it. Next is: The decent files, knowledge of managing, enterprise and marketing. Otherwise you gonna put yourself in a big money debt.
Yes, Runes of Magic server needs (for maximum effeciency) a complete rack of 24/48 servers. All services, zones, databases seperated on different servers. You have to think about an entire RACK of servers to open all zones perfectly functioning for public. You could put all services, db and zones in 1 server, but I recommend 2 servers due to heavy workload the game needs to provide the clients. All functions and all current zones, db, services, battleground, are able to be opened at minimum 128GB ram. I am not joking, this is a fact. (Please seperate your database server on a local server without public connection to protect yourself). Just a tip. I've been helped here for a couple of time too, so I would like to thank the people who did it. Also thanks to Ragezone I found the right resource to make it this far.
I wish you all good luck with this project and have much fun with your RoM server and merry christmas and a happy new year. It's a nice experience to have it for your own.
PS.
I'm not a liar. The current released LUA scripts, It is the early chapter 5 scripts, contains 2300+- scripts, compatible for 5.1.x.xxx. (don't patch further than that to prevent de-functionings). 6.1.x.xxx LUA scripts contains more then 3200 scripts and also updated/edited scripts.
