SRL Archive - Java Help and Tutorials

Hey everyone, I'm Exist2inspire, and this is my guide to making a server. I posted it in this section because your server is going to be made using JAVA.

First of all, you will need to get a few things:
winRAR - you will need this for extracting files, you can download it here
A JDK - this will allow you to edit .JAVA files etc. you can download it here
and MoparScape

Ok, now you have what you need.. let's get started!

1. Setting up your computer
You will need to make a few folders to help making a server more easy. on your desktop, right click then go new folder. call it Server. open up that folder and inside it make 2 more, 1 called Server, and 1 called Source.


2. Getting a Source

A "source" is a premade version of a server. It already has most of the things you will need added to it - you will be able to edit it later. click here to download a source. put it into the Source folder you made in step 1, copy it and paste it into your server folder also.


3. Extracting

Open your source folder and right click on the .rar file then go extract here. you should see heaps of stuff.. thats your server. now open up your server folder and extract the .rar file you copied from your source folder.
to sum up: you should have heaps of files and folders in both your server and your source folder.


4. Running your Server

look for the compile.bat, right click and edit it. press Ctrl + A then delete (delete every thing and i mean everything in the compile.bat file) and replace it with the attachment at the bottom of the page. (its the compiler for my server, feel free to rename it):

(100% credits to me for it, the owner of Afterlife.)

now save it.

click on the compile.bat file then type "c" to compile and then "r" to run your server. you should see something like:
starting something on 0.0.0.0: 43594
that's normal, it means your server is running.


5. Getting onto your server

Open up moparscape, (make sure you leave the runserver.bat open) and log in with any username/pass. this will only work for you. other people will have to type in the server ip and port before logging in.

to find out your ip adress, go to www.whatsmyip.org and give the person your ip. then give them the port (usually 43594) and you should see them on your server :)

if you can't get this to work. you will need to port-forward. search google for port forwarding tuts.

soon i will add a no-ip and hamachi tutorial. to help people to get on your server more easily

well that sums up my tutorial, i hope you enjoy having your own private server, Post any troubles you have and i will try to help you.

Thanks for reading :bart:

Yeah they do save the username, password, stats, items and everything to do with the character in a folder, (i think it's called more info or something like that..) so it wouldn't be too hard to get people's passwords. :stirthepot:
