First of all I know that other guides already exist, but I would like to post a new one with more instructions and tips :)

This is a full guide about how you can install and mod your server! It isn’t an easy one, but i gonna try to explain it as good as i can! Well first of all you need to download a server packet! I post the download link for a package at the end of the post (darkrage's revision latest l2j version / hlapex protection…). Well, first of all I gonna explain how we install it.

1st Step: Installation of Programs we gonna need

Q: What do I need to have installed before I continue with the rest of the progress?
A: Common programs that you can find easily, as navicat and java. (Links at the end of the post).

Q: What I have to do now that I have downloaded them?
A: You just install them and restart your pc.

Q: Is there any point that I have to pay attention when I install these two programs?
A: No, just install them. The installation wizard is like l2 install.

2nd Step: L2 Server installation

Ok, the title says that you are close to the end, but sorry I have to say the opposite :P

Well, now after you have downloaded the file I said in the beginning (l2server packet) you unpack it to c:\server (WATCH OUT: It has to be like this…NOT c:\my server or something like this. WATCH OUT 2: Do not unpack it like c:\server\server !!! 
You did it ?!?! W00T! Now we can continue. Fist of all, you gonna say <<WTF are all these files ?!?!? F*ck!>>. Let’s take a brief look…

diskw: It’s you apache / php / mysql server! Imagine that it is a big jar with your server. Everything you do (chars, items etc) is saved there. With simple words, it’s your database keeper.

gameserver: Easy one! In there you can find everything about your game (armor data files, weapons, skills and other stuff that you don’t need to know :P You just need the config folder, the data folder and the startgameserver.bat).

login: Nothing interesting here, you need the config folder and the startloginserver.bat, registergameserver.bat.

Optional: Some custom things, if you are interested in any of them, look at the next guide, about custom things and custom things import.

sql: Just let it pass :P Nothing interesting (unless you have high developing skills and you wanna edit some things here).

tools: We gonna need it. It’s the installer for our db (if you don’t know how to do it manually).
start.bat: It helps you start your sql/php/apache server.

stop.bat: It stops your sql/php/apache server.

Now that you know some things, we can go on. Now it’s the server install part.

Press you start.bat: Now you have started the sql server (and apache/php but we mainly need the sql for now).
Go to tools folder and press database_installer.
It will ask you some things. We need to press: Full install (f) to the first two and then yes (y) to the rest.
Check out your localhost site (type localhost in your browser). If everything is normal, you have successfully installed your database.
Good, now we have to edit some things before we start the login and game server.
C:\Server\login\config ~> loginserver (open it with text editor). 

# This is transmitted to the clients connecting from an external network, so it has to be a public IP or resolvable hostname
ExternalHostname=127.0.0.1

# This is transmitted to the client from the same network, so it has to be a local IP or resolvable hostname
InternalHostname=127.0.0.1

# Bind ip of the loginserver, use * to bind on all available IPs
LoginserverHostname=*
LoginserverPort=2106
LoginTryBeforeBan=20
GMMinLevel=100

THESE ARE THE OPTIONS IF YOU PLAY ALONE!!! If you wanna let other players to connect to your server, you have to edit the
ExternalHostname=XXX

Where XXX, put the IP you find here: http://www.whatismyip.com/

Now we can start our login server. But before this, we should Register our game server. When I say register, I mean the Bartz etc names we see when we press login!
Press registergameserver.bat and choose a number from the file inside C:\Server\login\ with the name ~> servername.xml
When you do it and press enter, you will see that a .txt file has been generated. Rename it from hexid(server X) to hexid. (where X the number you choose). Now put this file in the config folder of your gameserver. (C:\Server\lgameserver\config)
Now we finally can start our login server. Press startloginserver.bat and leave it until the final line says: Telnet is currently disabled.

Now we have to start our game server:
C:\Server\gameserver\config 	~> server (open it with text editor).

# Bind ip of the gameserver, use * to bind on all available IPs
GameserverHostname=*
GameserverPort=7777

# This is transmitted to the clients connecting from an external network, so it has to be a public IP or resolvable hostname
# If this ip is resolvable by Login just leave *
ExternalHostname=*

# This is transmitted to the client from the same network, so it has to be a local IP or resolvable hostname
# If this ip is resolvable by Login just leave *
InternalHostname=127.0.0.1

# Bind ip of the loginserver, use * to bind on all available IPs
LoginserverHostname=*
LoginserverPort=2106
LoginTryBeforeBan=20

# The Loginserver host and port
LoginPort=9014
LoginHost=127.0.0.1

Make it look like this. NOTE: I forgot to tell you that you have to add your router IP if you use a router in InternalHostname for login and game server too. You can get it from your router’s software. But on 99% of situations, 127.0.0.1 works.

Now we can start game server using startgameserver.bat! It needs some time (for better performance, close everything else that is CPU/RAM consuming). When you see on your LOGIN window (I hope that you didn’t close it before, did you? :P) the line AUTH: 0 (or something like this, I don’t remember at the momment and I don’t have a server to try it) you are ready. Start your client (read the next part for l2.ini / hosts editing before) and play!

In order to use this server again, you have JUST to do: editing of the config files for both login and gameserver IF you have a dynamic ip and using startloginserver.bat and startgameserver.bat!

Q: How can I stop the server???
A: Go IG and in you admin window (//admin ~> server management) press shutdown X seconds (where X, you choose). Logout and wait till it says on your Game server window: Press any key… Press a key and the window will disappear. Now go to login window and close it with X (up to the right corner). Finally, press stop.bat!

Q: Can I play from the same PC?
A: Yes but it may cause lag to your server if you don’t have a good PC.

Q: Why I’m not a GM/ADMIN?!?!?
A: There are lots of ways to become an admin on your server, see bellow

3rd Step: Connecting!

Now let’s see…what do I forgot…? Oh yes! How the f*ck we gonna connect?!?!? Well, you choose…the easy or the hard way? :P (trust me, at the beginning the l2.ini way is difficult, but you gonna love it in the future). Let’s see…

L2.ini Method

First of all we download the file edit program (link at the end of the post) and we extract it (anywhere you want). Easy one! Now we run it and we press “open and decrypt” (first box on your left). We search a little and we go to our l2 system and open the… l2.ini file!!! Nice, now we search for “ServerAddr=127.0.0.1” (where 127.0.0.1 may be anything, just avoid it, find the “ServerAddr=”) If you want to play from your pc, just edit it to be ServerAddr=127.0.0.1, if you want others to connect, simply put the IP you got before from http://www.whatismyip.com/ and you put in your config files of login/game server. NOW IT’S THE HOT PART (and I say hot ‘cause that f*cking sh1t gets on my nerves, lol I always do it wrong even if it’s so easy) DO NOT PRESS that f*cking X button, but PRESS “Save and Encrypt” !!! Save it in 413 version (and press yes when it says “do you want to replace bla bla bla”). You are ready :)

Hosts Method

It’s the easiest way if you update your client often. Go to C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc and open your hosts file with text editor (WATCH OUT: Do not open your msn hosts!!!)

Add the following:

XXX l2authd.lineage2.com
XXX L2testauthd.lineage2.com

If you play from your pc add 127.0.0.1, if you want others to connect, simply put the IP you got before from http://www.whatismyip.com/ and you put in your config files of login/game server.

4th Step: GM/Admin

Well, there are lots of methods, I gonna explain the simpliest you can find. Go to C:\Server\gameserver\config ~> options and find the line 

# If next switch set to true every created character will have access level 200.
EverybodyHasAdminRights = False

Set it to True ( # If next switch set to true every created character will have access level 200.
EverybodyHasAdminRights = True ). Go NOW and create an account and char and login (it doesn’t work for pre-created accounts/chars). After you get your GM/Admin status shutdown your server, go back and set this option to False . Now you are a GM/Admin :)

5th Step: Editing some server issues

C:\Server\gameserver\config - I’m sure you saw all these files. These are ALL the options of our server (rates/enchant rate/anything you can imagine). So we have to learn to edit the basic of them.

altsettings ~> 


# If disabled, magic dmg has always 100% chance of success, default is 'true'

The magic failure. The normal is true, but you can edit it.

# Alternative cancel of attack (bow, cast, all)

You can edit if you want the bow attack or the cast attack or even both to be able to be canceled. Default is only cast.

# Disable Raidboss Petrification

If you are 9 lvls or more higher than the raid boss, you get petrified automatically. Default is True (You won’t get petrified if you are 9 lvls or more higher than the raid boss).

Alternative settings against player with karma

Karma players settings, I’m sure you gonna enjoy editing it if you are against pks :D

# Allow free teleportation around the world.

Teleport without adena. Nice option for PvP servers, or medium rate (35x)

# Allows Players to Shift-click Mobs and view their Stats and Droplist

View drops and stats of mobs without being GM. I suggest you to set it as False

# Items Players arent allowed to Trade/Destroy/Put to Warehouse

Like hero weapons, just put the id you wish.

Crafting config

Crafting settings

# Skills config

Class master spawn and class change options
Learn skills without spellbook option.
Sub-class options.
Dagger skills success/dmg.
Auto learn skills option.
Custom success for root/sleep.
Maximum Buff slots (you can have more than the normal buffs without losing the previous).
Buff duration

Clan settings

Only the clan leader’s colour worths for me from here :P


enchant ~>

Enchant success rate (full control for you :) )
A custom system for success of dwarfs.


Options ~> take a look but don’t touch anything else than EverybodyHasAdminRights
# Player punishment for illegal acions
# Chat configuration

For better performance, set community board OFF
# Community board configuration (#  - off  =  no community Board)


rates ~>

set server rates


Server ~> the config for connections only

6th Step: Upgrading!
How to upgrade server
- Stop MySQL by run c:\server\stop.bat
- Extract & overwrite new files to c:\server
- Run again c:\server\start.bat
- Run c:\server\tools\database_installer.bat and choose (u) for Upgrade.
- Optional: Run c:\server\l2j\tools\Updates_Sql.bat and ingorne all errors code 1060
- Start Login server by run C:\server\startLoginServer.bat
- Start Game server by run C:\server\startGameServer.bat


7th Step: Custom things!
Well, I’ll tell you how to import custom things and how to create, but for creating I won’t give a very clear guide, because you need to know lot’s of things (.xml and client editing, and when I say client edit, I  don’t mean the usual <<add the following lines>> but you have to create yours, so you have to know what exactly means everything in the .dat files. But I’ll tell you how to edit some common and easy things, without too much client editing or difficult .xml.

Let’s see…importing first. Do you remember the folder Optional, for which I told you about at the beginning? If yes, you have a good memory :D There are lots of custom things there, so I gonna tell you with some words how you can import any of them. If inside the custom folder there is a folder which is called <<data>>, we have to put it inside the gameserver folder (c:\server\gameserver\) and replace. If it has an sql folder too, we have first of all to identify it! (and I mean, to understand in which table we should import it). As I told you at the beginning, you should install a program called <<Navicat>>. This is the same as phpmyadmin, but much faster and with friendly environment. The sql we see looks like a .txt file (but it is an .sql file!). We open navicat and then press connection.

connection name: whatever you want
hostname/ip address: localhost
username: root
password: root
(for the packet I gave you these are the settings).
Then press test connection. If connection is ok, we can go on (NOTE: You have to have a server installed first).
Press l2jdb
Search for import wizard (on the main buttons bar).
Select .txt files import
import file from…USE THE OPTION ALL FILES (*.*)
search for the sqls you found before
select them
next etc until you see start…press start….if your sqls are successfully installed, you are ready :) (Remember to upload all the sqls inside the folder).

Ok with this? Now we gonna learn how to edit the bonuses of the armors/weapons etc. (this can change the balance of the game. Always keep backups ‘cause you may destroy the .xml files. .xml file editing is a difficult job, and professional, so I suggest you not to do anything, just to try to learn :) )

We won’t use a professional tool (like dreamweaver 8 witch costs lots of money) but only our .txt editor (it’s simply to use for beginners). I suggest you to start coping things from other stuff (for example add the lines you believe give poison on critical on duals from a bow). Remember before you go on to do SAVE and double klick on the .xml and open it with Internet Explorer to see if everything runs smoothly. If you get any error, you did something wrong. But I tell you again, if you don’t know .xml (labels, orders, stats) you have better not to touch it :P If you want something, ask me in a post to do it for you, but don’t ask for client editing, ‘cause it’s a time consuming job, and I don’t have much time :P

Finally, we have the client left. Let’s see…look at your system. The files are .ini, .int and .dat files. The name says it all (i.e. Npcname.dat). If you edit this file, you can edit any npc name. Always keep a backup of your system. And for editing files without problems, you have to have a modded system. Just use one from a server with custom things. (the npc names and titles can also be changed in your database with navicat, if you want info, ask me in post). The easiest and funniest thing you can edit is systemmsg-e.dat, which holds all the messages of l2 (critical, miss, logout, login, welcome etc.) and edit it with other funny messages :P You can edit your server name from servername-e.dat and other cool stuff (enchant colors etc.) Just open any file you wish with fileedit and do some tests :P

Remember: NCSoft has claimed that CLIENT MODDING is a punishable crime, and any modification of his client is illegal. (well, by this, if we are using his client for playing on other server than official we are all criminals (even if we just edit hosts file).
Again, if you want something to edit and you can’t or if you want some help, post it!

But plz do not ask for completely custom things :P I can share you photos of my job like, titanium armor, dual zariche/dual bows, custom skills with raid boss animations (i.e. Bless of Hero) etc. Simple things that I’m sure you can do, if you try a little :)

Thx for reading, I hope I helped a little. Correct me if I’m wrong in any part. Ask anything you wish :)

"How do i conect Via the internet to alow other players to join?"

answer:

Setup server:

- If your connection behind router/firewall, you must open both TCP and UDP

ports: 80,2106,7777 for external players connect to your server.

Your internet service provider...?

 

VIP (Access even if server is full, right to use //sethero command) 1

GM (Trainee, he won't appear as a GM in the GM list) 75

GM (normal one) 100

Admin 200

 

To create any of these, try using the sqlaccountmanager in login server...

Yes, it is aida the NPC buffer. They just have changed the name in some servers...

Your server ip, router ip, and open ports 80, 2106, 7777 (udp/tcp)

 

This is the usual access lvls.In gameserver folder/config in gm  access you can change
