Hi everyone !
In this package you'll find :
- The latest compiled ArcEmu emulator ( As of 9/07/200.
- The latest clean NCDB database ( As of 9/07/200.
- A comprehensive guide on how to install required software, database and emulator.
Why?
- A lot of people want their own server to play with a few friends and don't care about the code, compiling, ...
- Repacks contain custom items, units and settings. This is your chance to get a clean copy.
- There are not much ArcEmu emulators around here. You must try it...
The package :
- There are 3 guides. One main guide to setup your server(emulator and database) and 2 smaller guides which will guide (newbies) through the installation of MySQL 5.0 and Navicat.
- You can download my guides HERE.
Just follow the instructions of Guide.txt .
Notes :
- The ArcEmu emulator is compiled for x86 systems(32 bit) !
- Even though English is not my native language, the guides should be crystal clear. If however you find unacceptable mistakes, feel free to PM me.
- If you find mistakes/unclear explanations in the guide, post them here and I'll correct.
- Suggestions are also welcome !
Because moderators complain about this not being a guide lol, here's the guide you'll find in the package :
