I would be grateful if you would take some of your time to explain in further details.
Thank you for reading this.

Thank you for showing ssbm how to ask for help properly.

In order to set up a tmw server like the current one you have to install the ragnarok online server emulator eAthena.

When it is working you have to replace some server files with our server files you can get from our subversion directory at sourceforge. Instructions how to access our subversion repository can be found at the link I posted above.

No problem:D

ok so how do I get a ragnarok online emulator eAthena and which files must I replace?

Thank you for the time you are taking to teach me.

I think theres a eathena server with the files already changed download somewhere.. you gotta change all the items and a good amount of stuff so that would be easier.

Lol staber is a better teacher than you, I must admit, although I make this statement based on assumption because noone really can be a worst teacher than you, and not because he actually did teach me how to ask for help, I knew that already and many things which your microscopic brain can't handle but I'm willing to ask for help properly only to people who don't treat me like Chocolate Cupcake.

Please don't be rude, the information provided was the most useful one you could ever get. When you don't want to learn using SVN you can check those topics:

http://forums.themanaworld.org/viewtopic.php?t=1701

http://forums.themanaworld.org/viewtopic.php?t=1909

where you can find everything you need to setup a TMW server.

As I said in the other topic we're not supporting eAthena which is the server software we are currently using, but once our own server will be released be sure it will be easy to plug and play and we will provide plenty of documentation to help you start with it. When you want to ask for help, please refer to:

When you want your server to be up to date you should really learn how to use SVN, don't expect newer packages to be released.

thanks for the useful information elven. thanks for taking the time to write a reply with more than 5 words.

My server now works! I'll update some stuff and post the Ip in a new topic later...I'm thinking about editing the NPC text and things, and monster names to make a ''Super Mario'' server. Should be fun, see ya.

Sorry that i wasted my precious time with trying to help you at all. When you expect people to help you you shouldn't insult people who don't give you exactly the answer you want.

We don't owe you anything and it isn't our duty to help you.

You are asking us for a favor.

Don't forget that when you are posting in a public forum.

crush, if you don't want to help me you don't have to but you can't take away my liberty of speech.

I have a question, my server is working well and I created an account but I don't know how to make it a gamemaster account. I read the gm_account.txt file in the server package and do not understand how to make a valid format. It tells me to type in the <account> <level> format, I typed my account like this:
Gamemaster 31 (my acc id is gamemaster)
However it tells me my format is invalid. I also tried Gamemaster,31 and <gamemaster> <31> but those didn't work either. If you could help me it would be appreciated.

Thx

As stated, support for eAthena servers won't be given. But the eAthena support forum, link posted above, should contain the answer. (Haven't got a clue myself )

Saying someone has a microscopic brain and is a terrible teacher in !4! lines isn't a nice thing to do. It's just rude and for no reason. As Crush said, he was trying to help. In the future if you doubt someone's qualities and want to share your thoughts with the community... write it as useful criticism.
Oh and we can take away your freedom of speech... there's a ban function on this forum. I'm not threatening you, just saying you're wrong.

So I can't say what I want in here? All is censored? That isn't very fun...we'd think we are in China or something where people are so scared of upsetting the government that they dare not breathe. You should evolve, you communists. Democracy, and liberty of speech, forever!

Oh and thanks to the person who answered my question about the gms...

I answered your question. I told you where to find support for your next questions and to not ask here, but you still keep asking us. Half of your posts are insulting team members who only provided you with suggestions but they were never insulting.

Democracy, and liberty of speech, forever!

Indeed, but this doesn't allow you to be childish and insult people when they don't answer your questions the way you want and when you don't want to read and learn from linked documentation.

These are enough reasons for me to ban you, and I'm really sorry about it since you're the first person on over 1600 registered users that I feel the need to ban. Everyone here disagree with each other, but noone was ever so rude as you, so I guess this is a goodbye.

This topic will be now locked, and marked as a bad example of conduct, whoever needs to ask smart questions on the server, feel free to open a new thread.
