hi all,

i just wanted to make a simple totally noob question:

how much would it cost to open and maintain a small priv server?

i mean i've been a player for a while,got no time with work and everything to join again official server,

all private servers i've seen are there just for the money,open and close in a second,

while i'd like to make a small priv server just for the players,no donations no subscription no nothing,

any experienced admin willing to give me a precise idea or pointing me in the right direction?

thank you very much.

There is no answer..depends the money you want to invest..you can search dedicate machines there is cheap and expensive..dunno what are you interesting to open..if you have files etc or if you need to buy any then needs more money..

Then website depends what you want to do..simply html website its not that expensive php but with scripts etc its more expensive..

Webhost thats not for discussion you can find even with 2euro monthly hosting but will not be much protected from ddos attacks..

vps 25-30 euro per month (no more than 2GB ram need for interlude unless you will have 1000+ people and then wake from your dream)

protection 150euro setup + 25euro/3month (or you will see +50000 items or players with skills from 5-6 classes and 200k damage)

website if you buy usually goes at prices of 100-150 you will need a logo usually 15-20euro and a forum and a domain name 5-15 euro per year.

you will try to buy a pack if you're not a developer, this is gets tricky you might be scammed for 200-300 euro or find for free more than you're asking, depents on the retardation level of brain by the factor of how much you like to search what you want

hi all and ty for replies,

well i'm not a developer just an old l2 player with good intentions,

i wanted to set up some decent server but as nightwolf let me understand the problem is the risk of getting scammed,

and actually i'm too much occupied with real life work so tecnically i'm braindead for reading "how to set up a priv server for dummies".

i'd need the help of a trustworthy person very competent about...seems the real problem is this.

i'll think about it.

i give u idea, dont open server at 2k18,

 

you will waste your free time and money for 10 ppl , just old servers get decent online, new servers die after 1h  start

The truth is, if you have no time then do not open any server. There are many servers "for fun, from players for players, no donations, decent, unique" and God's know what else. Simply don't.

 

About prices, site ~150€, but sure thing, you can skip it and use even shared one, one page htm and that's enough. The only money you have to invest is for dedicated with protection and site/hosting. Then the pack, you  can use frozen, acis as is with 0 costs. You  can pay developer to do some custom things you have in your mind.

Like 100€ is a must.

    • Update M54: Global HP/MP/CP consumable handling expanded beyond combat-only usage. Offensive mage idle recovery with learned skill Battle Heal. Spellhowler/Storm Screamer prioritizes Hurricane, using Vampiric Claw mostly below 90% HP. Major structural refactor initialized: Added category/class organization such as Archer, Dagger, Tank, Mage, Healer, Support and Specialized class files. Further structural cleanup. Extracted combat memory/state and more class-policy logic from the main controller. Added global stuck/inactivity watchdog for bots blocked by terrain/geodata. Added unreachable dropped ground-item timeout/temporary blacklist. Reworked Necromancer/Soultaker PvP: Dominator level 78+ maintains learned Arcane Power toggle on. Overlord/Dominator level 44+ maintains learned Soul Guard toggle automatically. Stability/scalability update: Bot controller ticks staggered instead of all starting in the same phase: Same 350 ms update rate retained Reduces simultaneous AI workload bursts. Removed the old manual aggressive-monster EVT_AGGRESSION bridge. Phantoms now use native Lucera setActive() behavior so monsters aggro them naturally. Reduced unnecessary NPC scans and native AI event pressure. Added saved-bot equipment overrides using a separate database table:         lucera_autobots_items Existing lucera_autobots remains the main saved-bot identity/state table. Equipment rows are linked to saved bots through bot_id. Added optional convenience view to show bot name together with equipment overrides:         lucera_autobots_items_view Added editable equipment slots in columns: Weapon Shield Helmet Chest Legs Gloves Boots Necklace Left/Right Earrings Left/Right Rings Equipment override values: 0 = use normal class/level profile item -1 = force slot empty >0 = equip that Item ID Custom equipment works only for saved database bots. Default class/level equipment profiles remain unchanged. Supports custom equipment from No Grade to S Grade, regardless of the bot's current level. Added validation for invalid item IDs and incompatible equipment slots. Added handling for: Two-handed weapons vs shields Full-body armor vs separate leggings Added all-grade Soulshots and Spiritshots to bot inventory/replenishment so custom lower-grade weapons still use the correct shots. Mage profiles that already use Blessed Spiritshots keep that behavior with all relevant grades available. First save the bot normally so it exists in table:         lucera_autobots Then open:         lucera_autobots_items Find the row with the same bot_id and edit only the equipment slots you want. Example: weapon_id = 6608 shield_id = -1 helmet_id = 0 chest_id = 0 legs_id = 0 gloves_id = 0 boots_id = 0 This means: weapon_id 6608 → custom weapon shield_id -1 → no shield all 0 values → keep normal default profile equipment After editing the DB, despawn and respawn the saved bot so M54 reloads its equipment overrides. Do not edit bot_id. Use it only to identify which saved bot the equipment row belongs to.   DOWNLOAD
