[TUT] How to make a v62 Maplestory Private Server

[Tomster]

Hey guys! Just thought I'd throw together a quick and simple tutorial on how to make a version .62 Maplestory Private Server. I haven't been on these forums in awhile, so i figured a lot of people need help. By the looks of it i'm correct. so here you go.

Its going to be very easy. I set one up in maybe 30 minutes or less depending what you have to download. If u have to download a lot this will take more time.

It seems kind of long but it is somewhat in-depth.

So here it goes.

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

Step ONE:
Things that needed to be downloaded. (Required to download ALL)

KiKi Localhost: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

MySQL Query Browser: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

MySQL Serv 5.0: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Version .62 Repack: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ](This is ThePack coded by Moogra

Wamp Server: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Version 62 XML files: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Java SE Development Kit (JDK) 6 Update 11: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

JCE Unlimited Strength Files: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

ADDED: Maplestory v62 setup: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]



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


Okay after you have all that downloaded, here's:

Step Two:

• Set up Wamp server. After installed, run the program.
• On the bottom right hand of your screen where the volume control is, you'll see the Wamp Server icon.
• Left click it and click "Put online"
• Then left click it once more and click start all services.

And that's it for Wamp Server.

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

Step Three:

• Install the Java SE Development Kit (JDK) 6 Update 11 that you should have already downloaded. If not, download and install.
• After installing, open up the JCE Unlimited Strength Files that you also should have already downloaded, if not, do so now.
• Inside the JCE Unlimited Strength Files folder, There will be 4 files.
• Copy: legal_policy.jar and US_export_policy.jar
• Now place them in the corrosponding folders:

Repack > Dist
C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\lib\security
C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\lib\ext
C:\Program Files\Java\jre6\lib
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_10\lib
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_10\jre\lib
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_10\jre\lib\ext
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_10\jre\lib\security

Overwrite the old ones if the box pops up.

DO NOT MESS THIS PART UP, follow the steps carefully

And that is it for java, which is one of the more complicated steps.

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


Step Four:

Now to set up MySQL:

• Install MySQL Server 5.0, which you should have downloaded.
• Then Install MySQL query Browser. Enter in the same password you used for the previous step. If you didn't enter a password, simply leave it blank.
• In Query Browser, click file, then click open script.
• Now find where you saved the repack and open up "thepack.sql" which can be found in the SQL's folder.
• Execute "thepack.sql"
• Then, Execute the rest of the SQLs in that folder.

TA-DA! now your done with SQL set up.

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

Step Five:

Now we will be editing your .properties file in your source pack.

• Go to your repack and find db.properties.
• Open it with notepad and enter in the correct MySQL Database information. This step is CRUCIAL to getting your server running correctly.
• DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING BESIDES THE PASSWORD FIELD.
• Enter the password you entered in when you set you the SQL server.
• Save and close.
• Now open world.properties.
• Scroll all the way down to the bottom and you will see a place to enter in your ip.
• I am NOT showing you how to port forward, if you want to use your WAN IP you HAVE to port forward unless your don't have a router and you just use a modem. There are some guides already to show you how to port forward.
• So at the bottom of world.properties, enter in your hamachi IP or WAN IP (only if port forwarded) and this is where you can edit your server name and message to.
• If you are just using this as a test server, just put 127.0.0.1 for the IP
• Now open login.properties.
• You will see this: net.sf.odinms.world.host=localhost at the top. Leave it as localhost if you are using your WAN IP or 127.0.0.1 as an IP. If you are using hamachi, then replace "localhost" with your hamachi ip.
• Now open channel.properties
• You will see this: net.sf.odinms.world.host=localhost at the top. Leave it as localhost if you are using your WAN IP or 127.0.0.1 as an IP. If you are using hamachi, then replace "localhost" with your hamachi ip.

And that's IT for properties files.

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

Step Six:

Now for the v62 XML files you downloaded eariler.

• Extract to desktop by right-clicking and clicking "extract here"
• After extracting to the desktop, rename the file "wz"
• place in your repack where all the property files are.

And that's all for wz files.

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

Step Seven:

Starting your brand new server.

• Now you can do it by simply running "starter.bat" and typing start. But i prefer doing it another way incase there are any errors you can see them
• To do so, simply run in this order exactly:

       launch_world.bat

           wait 5 seconds

           launch_login.bat

           Wait 5 seconds

           launch_channel.bat

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

Setting up KiKi localhost:

• Open up the KiKi file you should have downloaded already.
• Then open kiki.cfg in notepad
• If you notice, there is already an IP there. Leave it at that IP if it is just a test server. If not, then replace it with your WAN IP (if you port forwarded) or your hamachi IP if your using hamachi.
• Save and close. now send that out to people to play!:thumbup:

i just want to ask do people have to join the hamach server to go in the ms server and how can we make up to 4 channels running

[Tomster]

well yes, if you are using hamachi, they have to join your hamachi channel. and i will post a guide on how to make 4 channels later.

Can't download :

Version .62 Repack: [Only registered and activated users can see links. ](This is ThePack coded by Moogra

Error Message :

Invalid File. This error has been forwarded to MediaFire's development team. The key you provided for file download was invalid. This is usually caused because the file is no longer stored on Mediafire. This occurs when the file is removed by the originating user or Mediafire.
