I saw that there are a lot of people asking for how to create a private Ragnarok-Online server . so now i decide to make this tutorial to to help these people ... i didn't have a server but my friend had server and ihelped him to find pros and some tutos so , i learned with him how to create a server ...stop making introduction ...let's go ...

first you have to have minimum requirements :

----Software :----

i think any windows should work, but i recommend Win Xp
i think you have alredy a Winrar
*- Korean Ragnarok client
*- Sakray patch

(*i recommend the last release )

Notice from you may not intend to use the Ragnarok client on the same computer as you are installing the software to, the eAthena software will need to read the compressed GRF files in order to load the maps .<br /> <br /> ----Hardware :----<br /> <br /> PII 733Mhz<br /> RAM : 512M<br /> any 3D accelerated graphics processor<br /> a good video card<br /> &#91:

How do you change the rates of your server?

Notice from OpaQue:

Quite a lot of content matched from www.neatocool.com/Projects/Ragnarok/server_setup.html Kindly refrain from copying material from external sources.

"Quite a lot" is a bit of an understatement. This guide is a year old now and I am currently in the process of rewriting it. You no longer need to download the Cygwin DLLs as they are usually included in the eAthena distributions. Also a pure Windows .NET version of the server was created late last year that no longer requires any version of the Cygwin DLLs. In addition, the client updating section of this guide no longer works now for people that have never updated due to the fact that Gravity removed a key file from the patch server that the old sakup program looked for. Use the more modern patching programs now included with the Korean Ragnarok client install and this will no longer be a problem.

Look for an updated Server setup gide on neatocool.com in the next few days.


BTW - gryffen, you can change the drop and exp reats of your server by editing the exp.conf and drops.conf text files located in the eAthena\conf\battle folder. Just about anything you would want to change would be in there.

Ragnaroks is a very interesting MMORPG Online... I found a story about it which I found very interesting... Read it, you might get interest on playing it.

http://iro.ragnarokonline.com/

STORY OF RAGNAROK
After the long and gruesome war between God, Humans,
and Demons...
Scarred during the dangerous moments in battle, and avoiding total destruction altogether, the Humans, God and Demons entered a long truce

The 1000 years of fragile and forged peace...

In the land of Midgard, the existence of peace eventually led the humans to erase their memories of the scars and hardships of the wars in the past. Not remembering the faults of the past, culture was spreading throughout the land along with selfishness, corruption, and arrogance.

Then one day, strange occurrences started happening, breaking the balance that once existed in Midgard. There came a strange howl from the boundaries that divided the humans, God, and demons; creatures began attacking; increasing earthquakes and hail - and...
The mysterious legend of demons...
As the fragile peace began to fall apart, stories about the parts of Ymir, protecting the peace, began to spread among the adventurers. Forgetting the true nature of it, people set out to seek each of the pieces for their own selfishness, and the wealth that would come with it...

Thanks rapidget for your information...........it seems interesting.

Have you tried to install the server on other computers. Is the result the same? If it is the same, try redownloading the server files.

The language of your login screen / gameplay depends on the Sakray patch you added. (in my time ) There was a few executables in the server root that you can try to play the game with... something like SakM.exe and others.

And I have no Idea about the ninja thingi

Try finding the config file for it (read the readme first). I cant quite remember the file name or whare it is located, but i do know that once you've found it you can do some darn stuff...

e.g.
- Setting the experience multiplyer so that your character can gain exp by 10 times or more!
- Set the starting zeny (money) of the player (maybe 5,000,000z?)
- other cool stuff.

There is a config file named monster.txt or something like that where you can multiply the ammount of monsters roaming Ragnarok. p/s This might slow your computer down.

As far as i know,
1) your computer must have a connection to the internet (an ADSL line would do).
2) Change the address of the server to YOUR EXTERNAL ip address (not the ones beginning with 192.168.... or 10.0....).
3) Be sure your firewall settings are set correctly.
4) If your behind a router that you dont control (like in a university or an office) you're screwed. Unless you know how to tunnel
5) If you have a dynamic IP try to register it under any free dns service, so you can use a URL instead of ur IP.
6) Make sure the Ragnarok configurations on your friend's computer are set. (like using your IP or url instead of 127.0.0.1).

disclaimer: Like I said before, its been a while since I've set up my own RO server. Please let me know if I made a mistake anywhere.

TQ

W00t! seems like theres an error when you were unzipping the files. The RO server can't find specific files for it to run correctly. Please read the installation notes. (Sorry, there's not much help i can give on this one). Maybe you zipped the /maps/ folder in another directory by mistake??

[madmaty]

do you thinjk that just reinstaling the ro client and sakray client will fix this?

[madmaty]

ok i worked out all the map bugs and i relly only have 1 question left how do i make a GM account for myself?

[123hi98]

[b][color=#3366FF] i want to know how to download ro private servers my friend play darkro it fun but i need to know how to download it im new

Edited by 123hi98, 31 July 2006 - 02:39 AM.

[madmaty]

try going to google.com and searching for "RO private servers" you should get about 100000000000 hits on the search

[Mizuchi]

This might be an annoying question, but...

I'm having a few errors in my map-serv as well.

Alright. Let's see how to explain it.

Okay, I did everything this guide told me to do. I got everything set up properly, for just I can play.

But when I get to the point to start up map-serv, it tells me that instead of port 6900, it's going to port 6121.


That's not the only problem, it also tells me on the char-server:

[status]: connecting to 0.0.0.0:6900
make_connection: Cannot assign requested address
[info]: Attempt to login-server

On the map-server, it's telling me this:

[status]: server is 'ready' and listening on port '5121'

[status]: Attempting to connect to Char Server. Please wait.
[status]: Connecting to 0.0.0.0:6121
make_connection: Cannot assign requested address
(then it goes to repeat this line a whole damn lot)

Ah, I hope I put everything right. :x Help would be greatly appreciated.
