Help required.How to connect to my own server?

[FlipCoin]

Hi.

I just have started my server (clean interlude) and it appears that I'm unaware of how to distribute working launcher/2l.ini fine to my friends so we can play on my server (Server is set to accept external users (not from my local network)).

I already have tried with editing the Host file (C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc) but error 360 appears for GG (Game guard) when i start l2.exe. I can see that other private servers have their own "System" that is enabling others (users) to connect to their server. My question is how can i create such "system" or is there workaround to connect to my server without GG detecting that I have edited the host files ?

 

Thank you in advance for your replies and I'\m sorry if that's not the correct directory for such questions.

It's not like you did something wrong. Simply GameGuard sucks. So, first thing you have to do, is to kill it. You can take nwindow.dll from any system - that's the file which kills it. You have also to use l2encdec to decrypt the files, in order you can open and edit them - or simply use some shared clean system / from other server. Once you did that, edit l2.ini and put there your external IP - which you also have to set on server.properties.  Your l2.ini uses local ip (127.0.0.1) as you host it on your pc.

Hi, again.

So I'm unable to decrypt the original .ini file for no particular reason (It says that the file is not crypted). What I did is :

First Try :

Copy the .ini file from another private server and edited it with my external IP. Replaced the original .ini file in the clean install of lineage 2 interlude.

Result : The game refuses to start (just screen flash and no execute. Can't see l2.exe in task manager).

Second try :

I did replace the whole system folder with the private server's system. I have edited the l2.ini once again to show my external IP.

Result : It still connects me to the private server instead of mine.

Third try (a): 

I have replaced the original nwindow.dll with the private server's nwindow.dll.

Result : ERROR : The procedure entry point ?GL2UseGameGuard@@3HA could not be located in the dynamic link library C:(NWindow.dll File location). The l2.exe can be found as started task in task manager but I cannot get it in focus to use it after the error.

Third try (b):

On top of the nwindow.dll file I have place once again the edited l2.ini file (with my external IP) just to check if it works.

Result : The game refuses to start (just screen flash and no execute. Can't see l2.exe in task manager).

 

If information about the server is required (gameserver , loginserver), I can provide.

 

Thanks in advance and I will appreciate a bit more help.
