OK after you source in the eq55sc.sql file into your chosen database.. its time to give the server a test run.
Test Run
first, go to the LoginServer folder and run ClearLogin.exe.
next, go to the Server folder, and run World.exe...
...then run Boot1zone.bat
they should all boot and all look like this..
if everything boots up well, you succesfully setup all the serverside part of SimpleClient, Congratulations !
Next, we will setup and run the client and login to the world with SimpleClient
Setting up the Client
Next, go into the Client folder. Open SimpleClient.ini
change the worldserverport/address to 9000/localhost,
LoginserverAddress should be localhost as well..
the ContentDir to the SimpleClient\Client\ folder..
And change the CLIENTHEIGHT/WIDTH and the FULLSCREENHEIGHT/WIDTH
to whatever resolution you want the client running it.
heres what it should look similar too..
Next, you have to alter the database, and enter your own account.
Code:
INSERT INTO account (name, status, lsaccount_id, gmspeed) VALUES (Cripp, 255, 1, 1);
after that.. everything is done. Now we try running the client.
Running the Client!
here comes the fun part, running the client !
I am assuming you have the ClearLogin.exe, World, and ATLEAST one zone.exe running.
Run SimpleClient.exe.. at first you should get a loading screen like this..
