In Access lvl , put 100 for admins , 0 for players or -100 for banned accounts ^^ .

Open Startloginserver.bat (login folder) and Startgameserver.bat (gameserverfolder).

PS: If ur usinga router , ull need to open the ports : 7777 (Gameserver) ; 2106 (loginserver) ; 3306 (MySQL)
Thats all , i think xD

If i forgot anything , pls tell me !


PART II - WEBSERVER (Server Homepage)

Now ull try to explain how to create ur webserver WITHOUT DISKW !!
Ill use L2Jz System because it is a LOT better and usefull with a complete database included !!

Files that ull need : http://www.wampserver.com/ It will install the PHP and APACHE protocol in ur system simple and fast)
L2Jz (try to use the search button above)

1o -> First install WAMP5.0 , a little icon may appear at ur clock side, if not, go to the folder that u has installed the wamp and run the executable.)


2o- Extract the files of L2Jz system in a folder than follow the steps bellow :
-With the SQL FILES :
-Open NAVICAT than right click in ur database l2jdb and choose EXECUTE BATH FILE than search for the L2jz SQL files and do it with ALL the SQL FILES !!

-After that , 9 new tables will appear in ur database



3o-Now move all the remaining files of L2Jz for ur WWW\ folder (ull find where u installed ur WAMP5.0. In my case c:\wamp\www\)


4o-Left Click on ur WAMP icon APACHE>START/RESUME SERVICE , and after that click on PUT ONLINE


-U can edit ur L2Jz Main page editing the file welcome.php (www\pages\)

5o-Edit ur option.php file (www\) inserting ur server rates and another thing that u like or need
-Bellow the lines of ur server rates

$servers[$i]['info']['rateXp'] = 10;//Exp rate.
$servers[$i]['info']['rateSp'] = 10;//Sp rate.
$servers[$i]['info']['rateDropAdena'] = 30;//Adena rate.
$servers[$i]['info']['rateDropItems'] = 15;//Drop rate.
$servers[$i]['info']['rateDropSpoil'] = 35;//Spoil rate.

-ull need to change that numbers puting ur server rates

6o- Go to ur gameserver\config folder than edit the file telnet.properties in the following lines

EnableTelnet = True

and remove the # in the beggining of the line

#StatusPW = somePass

7o- Go to ur Login\config folder than edit the file telnet.properties in the line

EnableTelnet = True

PS: IF UR USING A ROUTER , ULL NEED TO OPEN THE PORT 80 (Webserver/Apache) !!

Thats it ! A FULL C5 server with ONLINE L2INFORMER and fully editable !

If i forget something , ill insert here later , or pls MESSAGE ME !

If u cannot login in ur server , its a problem in the gameguard, ill share here the guide to bypass it ! (thats the reason to i hve a nprotect folder in my www\ folder xD).


PART III - The Client Side

Beucause many questions about what to do in the client , i will make a little guide to what make in the client PC to run ur server !

1o- Ull need to donwload the SYSTEM folder of your server pack ! (Ull find it on ur server pack Thread)

2o- Change the original system folder of ur L2 for the server system folder

3o- Ull need to edit the L2.ini (at ur system folder) to insert ur server IP. U can edit it
using the program L2_Fileedit.exe



4o- If ur using the gameguard bypass , ull need to insert the line at ur client hosts file
(windows/system32/drivers/etc)
"xxx.xxx.xxx nprotect.lineage2.com" (where xxx.xxx.xxx is ur server IP)
-Delete ur gameguard folder in ur new system folder to force the client to download the new gameguard from ur server.
