    Hi all, really need help setting up my own server

    Hello everyone, im new to the forum and im currently trying to get my own server working.

    I've tried countless repacks and i'm really having trouble.

    I have the following repacks:

    Fusion Arcemu 3.2.2 - Worked the best so far, just not online
    AC Web Ultimate Repack
    AC Web Mangos Hybrid 07
    AC Web Mangos Hybrid 09
    Blizzlike 3.3.0
    Mercurial 3.2.2a
    Turbotomten v5.0

    --------------------------------------

    I'm running a normal gaming machine as a test machine that will connect to my server. - Nothing on it apart from a changed realmlist.wtf.

    I'm using a Rackable systems blade server, 4.8ghx (Opetron x2), 2GB ECC RAM, 250GB Main HDD, 250GB Backup HDD with a Uninterruptable power supply.

    All machines are being run through a router and all of the ports that need to be forwarded are forwarded.

    --------------------------------------

    Which repack is the best one to use?

    --------------------------------------

    Also is there anyone that would be able to assist me in getting my server up and running? As alot of youtube and google found tutorials aren't working very well for me.

    Thank you all in advance

    I wouldn't suggest repacks to be fair. Yes there easy to use, and noob friendly. But if you want ultimate ensurance, go for a compile yourself (Check the guides forum).

    Now for the assistance - What exactly is your error you are receiving and or what is happening?

    You ar using too many repacks that do not work together e.g Mangos + ArcEmu. As Kiev suggested follow a guide on this forum in the guides section on compiling a server yourself
    If you need me you have my skype, if you don't have my skype then you don't need me.

    Hi guys thanks for the response.

    My errors are a mixture of the following:
    .Some repacks cant be used as they come with no tutorials and or need files added from other locations.

    .Settings in the world, login and/or realmlist are incorrect, which only allows me to play on my LAN and sometimes with realm looping.

    ---------------------------------------
    I only ever use 1 repack at a time, however yes, they are really noob friendly which is a plus for people like me and is why it was so appealing.

    I will look at the guides for compiling my own as I already have the required programs.

    Any suggestions which one to do? Preferably one with a guide of sorts.

    Thanks again for the help its appreciated.

    Ill give you a short overview off what to do here:

    Download (Or if you already have it) tortoiseSVN. Googling this is the easiest way.

    Install it and do as instructed, then create a new folder on your desktop (or somewhere that is easy for you to remember), and right click "Svn checkout" and put in this: "svn://arcemu.info/svn/".

    That is the arcemu SVN, and for me, the only one i have tried to compile.

    Let it go through the process off getting all the needed files.

    Open the folder that is called "trunk" and go to "extras", and open "arcemu-windows-libraries". Copy the needed .DLL's file that is needed for your system, I.E x64 or x86 (the one without a extension).

    Then you need to copy the files that is under "VC" into your Microsoft C++ Folder, this is told you under "README.txt" that is located in the main directory, you can follow that for the files that are needed to be placed where.

    Once all this is done navigate back to "trunk" and go into "win" and open the "arcemuVC90 - All Projects.sln" file. This will open the project you are going to compile.

    At the top change "debug" to release, or if this is already done then dont change anything. Right click 'Solution 'arcemuv90', (It has a longer name but i just shortened it),and click "Build Solution", if you receive any compile errors (I may have missed out on something to do as i have mine set up ready), then post them here and i will take a look.

    Good luck!

    Hi Kiev - thanks for that very descriptive tut.

    When I get to this step:

    Once all this is done navigate back to "trunk" and go into "win" and open the "arcemuVC90 - All Projects.sln" file. This will open the project you are going to compile.

    when i double click on this project file, i get this error:

    [IMG] [/IMG]

    any ideas?

    That worked, i've gone to configure and changed it to release.

    And then I pressed F7 to compile the project, I get the following errors:

    [IMG] [/IMG]

    [IMG] [/IMG]

    [IMG] [/IMG]

    altogether at the end it says - 12 Succeeded, 3 failed

    log file attached

    Thanks

    Did you do all the instructions listed in the "README.txt" in "extras"? Im doubting thats the cause and thinking its more a error with that compile... hmm, in the folder you dowloaded it, right click and go to "TortoiseSVN Update", there should be a option for that.

    Off topic, I feel sorry for you if you have to use On screen keyboard..?

    ok that worked, it compiled successfully and I moved the following files and folders to a empty folder on my desktop:

    scripts (folder)
    maps (folder)
    script_bin(folder
    dbc (folder)
    arcemu-logonserver.exe
    arcemu-world.exe
    collision.dll

    I also copied and pasted the configs folder from the core folder I first downloaded and put it in here.

    [IMG] [/IMG]

    I've also extracted the dbc from my enGB folder and put it in my server folder.
    I've also extracted the maps and done the same.

    What do I need to do now? I think its something to do with navicat which already have.

    Ok, I've now done everything. Loaded navicat, added the extra databases and changed the config files.

    the arcemulogonserver.exe runs fine.

    but when I run arcemu-world, I get this:

    [IMG] [/IMG]

    Also a few other .dbc files say read buffer overrun

    now I read somewhere that I may need to downgrade my WoW client or compile trunk and use that rather than this other extractor I used.

    If you have a link to the one I should use it'd be cool

    Thing is I dont know how to compile trunk, even though I know where the folder is.

    I would reccomend downgrading, im guessing you have 3.3.0? The server is set for 3.2.2. So you would need to downgrade, locate in your wow folder "patch.mpq" and delete that, then run the repair tool, this should revert to version 3.2? Or something like that.

    Well done on getting that far though! Not too hard is it ?
