  1. FREEMIUM This DDoS service I provide haven't started as a business, but I gotta charge the people I never had an interaction with, I hope you understand that. However, tips are welcome. I'll try to answer some of the questions in advance. GAME SERVER TYPES I'm glad to say that, so far, so good. GTA5 servers were the most challenging so far, but we did it - the server owner and I. And of course, Lineage II in both scenarios - preventing and stopping attacks. TIME Some servers may require my attention for only a few hours, some for days if your server is already live and under attack, or even a migration to a new hosting company that I have to fully setup and do the needed tests. We start by using what you currently have and see how can we stop the attacks and then we move forward if needed. HOSTING COMPANY I will take care of the Firewall setup and all rules the hosting company provides. I'll setup it as good as possible as per server's needs. OPERATION SYSTEM As I mentioned in my main thread, I'm currently focusing on Windows Server because it's the most challenging, and this is just the beginning. This is where we need to pay extra attention because most of Layer 7 are bypassing company's firewall - seen as normal traffic. LAYER 7 IS SERIOUS If the OS is not setup well enough and all the security measures are not being taken care of - your database can get damaged, some files may get corrupted. We need all resources of the OS to only handle the server and its traffic, it can't help the server if it can't help itself to begin with. Then, I'll move on the networking setup of the OS. MY DEDICATION This is very important. I won't only setup a few things and leave you on your own. I'll try to be around for a while when you need me, especially if you have an opening date coming up - I'll try to make myself available for that day. Do not abuse my kindness though. NO PROTECTION IS 100% You know what I mean. Even the giant companies are struggling sometimes. What about us? We always have to work our way around it. You never know what target you got on your back. ONE BY ONE This is not one-software installation kind of thing. I have to focus on one server at a time.
  2. I thought L2J itself is dead for good.
  3. Aren't they working in private?
  4. Theory and practice are 2 different things. You do have a point. That could go as a 3rd factor after my mentionings. However, I pointed out to both sides - players and admins from my perspective how I see it. --- Overall, it's a new era and everyone should adapt to the present - players and admins. Adapting (and improving) made the human race survive so far, wasn't? TOP WEBSITES ARE ANOTHER CANCER. This would help and make more sense if there was a new *topzone*, coming to life, filtering and categorizing private servers differently, not only by chronicles. The *toozone* team being less lazy and actually checking a server's quality and players trusting their observation I guess. A *topzone* needs a rating and reviewing system, where players can give stars from 1 to 5 and approved by the *topzone* team if the comments are legit. So players will only enter the servers that suit their style and admins don't have to waste time pleasing players (being toxic) that don't wanna stay anyways. It's a win-win. THIS WOULD BE A GAME CHANGER FOR THE COMMUNITY. I wish I could make a *topzpne* website with no advertisements and stupid ass banners everywhere - greedy motherfuckers. Nothing but a basic premium package for a small server logo/banner. And a separated donations system that offers no benefits in return.
  5. Scale to frame?
  6. Hahahahhahahahaha
  7. Most l2j pack have that respawn_random as -/+ hours.
  8. Apparently Lineage II used to slowly die, until now. This quarantine has brought many people back. Lineage II is dying for the same reason other games/servers are dying. Community being toxic and always in search of perfection that did not exist, just like how "balance" is misinterpreted, "balance" is not about equality between classes, each class has its counter. Every player has its own vision - how something should be/look like. That's why you need to let them know how your vision is and make them understand. Do you remember how clan members used to follow leaders and co-leaders many, many years ago? Now each of them believes that he/she is superior to anyone else. Everyone thinks they know everything perfectly. So it's a mess between players and clans as well. Another reason would be that, hell yeah, server owners, they don't care to learn something they don't already know, basic computer networking or how a small business should work. They don't wanna leave their comfort zone. As a server owner, you should know at least the basics of all of them - computer networking, server developing, client developing, web developing, how a maintenance should be done overall, and so on - everything that your server needs - only in this way can you control the quality of the server and the people who work with or for you.
  9. This is the free requests section, while you ask to contact you in private - this makes it a topic for the marketplace.
  10. You simply check if player is Noble before entering that zone, but first you have to create a custom zone (assign coords to it in the datapack) and do the enter/checks in there (java).
  11. Free requests are replied to and solved in public.
  12. Yes.
  13. You can use conditions if you want to delete a certain group of mobs based on npcid range or coords. I suggest you then delete mobs on npc ids, see what are the ranges between A and B, C and D, etc and delete them.
  14. I heard good things about him.

  16. Set the timer for offline/storeMe the player. Disconnect the offline trader at logout/exit. You need to (if you want to) store the offline traders at server restart/shutdown and restore them back at server restart. Please tell us what and how have you tried to do it and someone will try to assist you.
  17. Offtopic spam and useless reply to the original thread: __________________________________________________________________________ Cicos should probably be banned. This guy is replying to everyone to add him on skype in order to do some sells. https://maxcheaters.com/profile/221180-cicos/
  18. Overall yes, the gameplay is what we got used to - c4 skills, same areas with perhaps small changes to make it better. We'll have lots of positive improvements. Why did we choose the Classic client? We want to maximize your gaming experience by all the extras that the newest client comes with. Simple things such as the damage/heal indicators, new video rendering options but also bigger and more important things like the immensely possibility for unique content-creation, old bug fixes and more. And ain't we all tired of seeing the same thing all over again? --- Hi everyone, We have a new forum look! We hope this will serve its purpose. We're not going to have a website - we don't need one, this forum can do them all. It's easy and user friendly. We're working daily. We're NOT only building and adding L2Gold features, we're revamping everything so it suits our needs. We want to offer the most beautiful gold-style server, and not only! We take pride in our job. Let everybody know that www.Lineage2.gold is only a few weeks away from BETA! Useful topics: Our first announcement, Team Member Application and our 'Share your L2Gold vision with us!' topic. Join us on Discord!
  19. So, can you block Adrenaline if a customer pays well enough?
  20. Hi everyone! MaxCheaters server's official topic is dedicated to L2Gold Interlude - Innovative Client. We chose Lineage II Essence to maximize your gaming experience with numerous benefits compared to the old Lineage II. The newest client offers enhanced visuals such as damage and heal indicators, along with new video rendering options. Moreover, it provides immense possibilities for unique content creation, addressing old bug fixes, and delivering a more stable gameplay experience. With balancing and gameplay improvements, the chronicle ensures fairness and competitiveness. However, even though we're using Lineage II Essence client and enjoying the most important features that come with it, we remain loyal to the beloved INTERLUDE version when it comes to Olympiad, Castle Siege, Olympiad, Classes, and Skills. This decision allows us to preserve the nostalgic essence and familiarity of these aspects, ensuring a seamless transition for long-time players. By combining the best of both worlds, our server offers a unique and enjoyable experience that blends modern advancements with cherished traditions.
