[Guide] Making a Private Server and getting it public!

**Jackie Moon** · 07-07-2008

I will get you a server and public today!

Ok download any repack but for this i will use Ac Web Repack 7.8 from

Download here!

while it's downloading you may aswell get MySQL and Navicat, they are your lets say "directories" to your server.

Navicat: Navicat for MySQLget the lite version (scroll down)

MySQL: MySQL get the community version.

Ok once they have downloaded install the AC web repack. It will save to your C:/ drive.

Now to go to Arc Emu and save it in a new file anywhere (desktop for example)

Extract it into your new file and there is all your config files.

Once MySQL has downloaded install and follow the steps and same with navicat make sure you use basic installation.

Once it is all done open the Repack in the C:/ drive and go to:

Server > mysql > and click on mysql_install service.

Now open navicat and make a new connection with the standard for AC repack.

Connection Name: Ascent
Hostname/IP: leave as Localhost or 127.0.0.1
Port: 3306
Username: root
Password ascent

There now you can access your Database.

Making public

First to portforward:

In your browser bar type in 192.168.1.1

It will need a password and user name here are some standard access users and passwords:

Admin, Admin
Admin, Password
Admin, (nothing)

Now port forward these:

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

Click here for help portforwarding

FOR BOTH UDP and TCP Once your done.

GO TO Dynamic DNS hosting service!

Make an account then follow these steps:

Click on
Services
then
DynamicDNS
then
Press Get Started

Fill out the table and make sure you use the Auto Detected IP and have wildcard Checked. Once done click create host and write down the name.

Then go to whatismyip

For you external IP which you need (write it down).

Go to Start, run and type in CMD or Command

Type in /ipconfig and a list will come up.

Find your IP address and write it down EG: 192.168.1.X

Go to Start, Run and search C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc

And open hosts with notepad.

Down the bottem add this in:

ip config IP Your.DynDNS.host
whatismyip IP Your.DynDNS.host

So it looks like this for example:

192.168.1.12 mydns.game-host.org
51.234.212.31 mydns.game-host.org

Ive seen Localhost or 127.0.0.1 in it, which is not necesary

NOW go to your Arc Emu file and open "configs" and open your Arc-REALMS.conf file

And change these fields:

Code:

<LogonServer Address = "your DynDNS"
             Port = "8093"
             Name = "Default Logon"
             RealmCount = "1">

Code:

Realm1 Name = "Jackies Sanctum"
        Address = "whatismyip.com:8129"
        Icon = "PVP"
        Population = "1.0"
        TimeZone = "1">

KEEP THE :8129

Now open you Arc-LOGONSERVER.conf file.

Code:

<Listen Host = "DynDNS"
        ISHost = "Ipconfig IP"
        RealmListPort = "3724"
        ServerPort = "8093">

Now get your friends to change there realmlist to your DNS and your ready to play!

Bonus HELP!

Open your World.conf files and delete the Die directives and the localization setup so your optional.conf file can work (means optional instant 70 and more!)

Realm Looping

Open your Realms.conf file and change the following:

Code:

<LogonServer Address = "127.0.0.1"
             Port = "8093"
             Name = "Default Logon"
             RealmCount = "2">

And down the bottom add:

Code:

<Realm1 Name = "Jackies Sanctum"
        Address = "whatismyip.com:8129"
        Icon = "PVP"
        Population = "1.0"
        TimeZone = "1">

<Realm2 Name = "Admin Only"
        Address = "IpconfigIP:8129"
        Icon = "PVP"
        Population = "1.0"
        TimeZone = "1">

Open you ascent-logonserver.conf and change:

Code:

<LogonServer RemotePassword = "ascent"
             AllowedIPs = "IpconfigIP/32"
             AllowedModIPs = "IpconfigIP/32">

See the /32 if it doesn't work for you change it to /24 depends on the modem

Remember start your server using the arc emu file the AC web in your c:/ drive is a directorY!

i cant get it to work

**Jackie Moon** · 07-08-2008

Oh my bad thats easy to fix ill update the guide but ill tell you want to do.

Open you ascent-logonserver.conf and change

Code:

<LogonServer RemotePassword = "ascent"
             AllowedIPs = "192.168.1.XX/32"
             AllowedModIPs = "192.168.1.XXX/32">

put your IP which is 192.168.1.103 so just copy and past this

<LogonServer RemotePassword = "ascent"
AllowedIPs = "192.168.1.103/32"
AllowedModIPs = "192.168.1.103/32">

and you will be fine

**ryshu** · 07-08-2008

Yeah it messes up for me also but with this instead

"Connecting to logonserver on 'unkn.servegame.org'
Authenticating...
Authentication timed out.

" Wait never mind I figured it out, I just had to change :

<LogonServer RemotePassword = "ascent"
AllowedIPs = "192.168.1.103/32"
AllowedModIPs = "192.168.1.103/32">

The "/32" had to be "/24"

**Jackie Moon** · 07-09-2008

yes /32 and /24 depends on the person connection in some way.

**Jackie Moon** · 08-01-2008

BUMP has been awhile and i updated adding screenies soon!

**kabanos99** · 08-04-2008

**alamohippo** · 08-05-2008

I did all this and my friends can SEE the realm but they are getting a realm loop...
Any ideas on how to fix it?

**Sandile** · 08-05-2008

I got a problem.

This part doesnt seems to work for me:

Ok once they have downloaded install the AC web repack. It will save to your C:/ drive.

Go to My Computer and to the C:/ drive and open Ac Web Repack and there you have it your whole server.

Once MySQL has downloaded install and follow the steps and same with navicat make sure you use basic installation.
___________________________________________________________
Once it is all done open the Repack in the C:/ drive and go to:

Server > mysql > and click on mysql_install service.
___________________________________________________________

because when I open mysql_installservice
it says like this :

___________________________________________________________

Installing MySQL as an service
Unable to find the Searchway.
Unable to find the Searchway.
Try to start the MySQL deamon as service ...
systemerror 5 have occured.

acces denided.

Press any key to continu.
___________________________________________________________

its not exacly like that but I cant translate anybeter from swedish to english.
I hope you understand it anyways.

I got the server to work before but I couldnt update the server to 2.4.3 can you give me a link how to update to patch 2.4.3?

**saintchuck** · 08-09-2008

No realmlist pops up :s

**Ct88** · 08-11-2008

Everything works great EXCEPT when I try and log on the server, the server shows up, but when I try to log on, it's stuck at "Logging into server" or "Connected" I can never get to the character creation screen...

**demoninky** · 08-12-2008

Well i tried following the directions and all i came back with was the realmlist loop. I followed the instructions on fixing that problem and the logonserver loads and instantly shuts down. any suggestions?

**TechnoKilla** · 08-13-2008
