[exitenz]

Alright. Finally released? Try. Finally updated. LOL. This tutorial is going to tell you how to make your Ascent server public without having to use Hamachi.


Im using-AC Web Ultimate Repack 7.6! - AC Web
1 of the best repcak's ever.


The tutorial is broken down into parts to make it easy to read and follow. Also, the video tutorial was added for further easyness.

VIDEO:
AC-Web; How to make your Ascent server public...




Part One:

1. Open your Internet Browser. (Firefox. Internet Explorer.)
2. Go to DynDNS.Com and create and account if you don't already have one.
3. Log In, and click on the "Services" tab.
4. Now, Click on Dynamic DNS.
5. Click on Create Host.
6. Fill out the fields. Leave everything default except wildcard. Make sure it's checked.
7. Click add host, and your done with part one.


Part Two:

1. Go to Start. Then Run.
2. Type. C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\Etc\
3. This will open a folder, Click on Host.file and open it with Notepad/Wordpad.
4. At the end of the file add the following.

Code:
127.0.0.1 (Dynamic DNS)
(Internal IP) (Dynamic DNS)
(External IP) (Dynamic DNS)
Dynamic DNS = The DNS you just created at DynDNS.Com

Internal IP = Your IP of the computer you are running the Antrix server on, This can be found by going to Start, then Run. Typing in CMD, once the Windows command Prompt opens type in "ipconfig". You will get a readout the one you are looking for is "Ip Address" it normally starts with 192.

External IP = You outbound ip assigned by your ISP. You can find this by visitingWhat Is My IP Address? - IP Address Lookup, Info, Speed Test, and more.

5. Save and Quit.


Part Three:

1. Open your AC Web Ultimate Repack folder which is saved in your C:\.
2. Open the Ascent folder.
3. Open your Realms.CONF file with Notepad/Wordpad.
4. Change

Code:
RealmCount ="2"> It should say 2, not 1.
5. Change

Code:
<Realm1 Name = "YOUR REALM NAME"
Address = "YOUR EXTERNAL IP:8129"
Icon = "PVP"
Colour = "1"
Population = "1.0"
TimeZone = "1">

<Realm2 Name = "YOUR REALM NAME - Local"
Address = "127.0.0.1:8129"
Icon = "PVP"
Colour = "1"
Population = "1.0"
TimeZone = "1">

That's what it should look like. You should have two realms. If your confuesed, you can watch the video, and it can explain it better.

6. Save and Exit. Your done with part three.


Part Four:

*Note: I know this part confuses A LOT of people.. So, Watch the movie. It's so much easier.*

1. Find out what the IP Address is, which allows you to connect to your router. I know Netgear is 192.168.0.1. If you don't know.. Ask your parents, a friend, or your routers help line.

2. Once you connect, it should ask for a Username & Password. The username is Admin. The password is either admin, or password.

3. Forward the following ports. If you don't know how.. Ask.

*Note: Don't use DMZ! It doesn't work. Period.*

3724 - 3724
80 - 80
3306 - 3306
8129 - 8129
8093 -8093
6112 - 6112
6881-6999
3036 - 3036
8050 -8050

4. If your router has a built in firewall, disable it. Along with any windows firewall you have. Unless you know how to set an exception.


Part Five:

Connecting to your Ascent server.

1. Open your World of Warcraft directory.
2. Copy your realmlist.wtf, and rename the second one to realmlist2.wtf. (This is so you still have the live server addresses.)

3. Open your realmlist.wtf in Notepad/Wordpad.
4. Delete everything, and add "set realmlist 127.0.0.1"
5. Save and Exit. Move on to part six.


Part Six:

Getting your friends to connect to your Antrix server.

1. Have them open their World of Warcraft directory.
2. Have them make a copy of their original realmlist.wtf, so they can still play live WoW.
3. Have them open realmlist.wtf in Notepad/Wordpad.
4. Have them delete everything, and add "set realmlist (Your Dynamic DNS, which you created in part one.)
5. Have them Save, Exit & Connect.

If you did everything correctly. Your server is now public. No Hamachi. Your friends can connect and you can all do whatever you want.

If for some reason, it's not working.. Watch the video. Maybe, you read someting wrong. If you still can't get it to work, Ask. We will be more than willing to help.

Hope that helped
