Check the Emulation Guides section.
You can probably find loads of tutorials as to, how you make it public the right way.

i have followed those giudes to the letter but it still crashes on me

[AngelSandy]

Then you got a crappy repack :b
Take a tutorial, as to how you compile your own :3

Usually anytime I have problems getting public it's because of my ports. Even when I think everything is correct.
Recheck your ports and make sure firewalls are down or allowed exceptions.
If all else fails, you can get ahold of me via messenger at [email protected], I'll try to help as much as I can.

Nope, disregard what AngelSandy said. The repack is fine, you got it running and logged in. The issue here is the ports. First off verify your ip address at ipchicken.com or w/e.

Secondly, you'll need to decide:

-Public through router (if you have a router) or
-Public through hamachi

If you don't have a router the only other option is hamachi. Google it up and use that. All players will need it and you'll have to set the 127.0.0.1 to the generated hamachi ip depending on how all was set and stuff.

If you have a router, it's a good thing to try using it. Open your router's page (start -> run -> type 'cmd' and hit ok. in there type 'ipconfig' and look for the appropriate network (i'm wireless so mine would be the following):

Ethernet adapter Wireless Network Connection:

        Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . :
        IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.100
        Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
        IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : xxxx::xxx:xxxx:xxxx:xxxx%x
        Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.200

Default Gateway is what you need to type in your browser to access your router. IP Adress is the address you'll need to use to forward ports to, and go to the port forwarding page and forward all necessary ports (depends on which ones you set). Makes sure you use the IP Adress in my case 192.168.1.100 to forward to, else you'd open ports for a different computer not the one you want the server setup on.

Once that's all set, run the executables (ports only open once they're forwarded and a local program is using them) and you should become connectable. Contact me through a pm or add me 'Lonehwolf' on xfire if you need additional help, although I'll try to check this post again

The reason I said his Repack sucks was because he said it kept crashing :b

my pla was on getting my server public via router. the thing is now is that i cant get the ArcEmu-world.exe up.. either it cant authenticate or it cant log on server.
but if can get it up and running people cant log in... a message pops up with a load of random letters and signs... something about "CENTER" something.

also i have forward all the ports needed for it to work and i have followed 4 guides and about 40 movies for it to work but i still cant it to work.... im all out of ideas
