Specific questions/doubts about hosting and editing a private server

Hello. :)

First of all, let me say I've already searched and found many tutorials here on how to create a private silkroad server. Although many of them are really useful, I still have some specific questions before I even try to create a server, so I was hoping someone could help me on getting the answers.

Well, I am an old Silkroad player (well I guess everyone here is, hahah), so If I were to create a server, I would like to modify some things on the game, to make it more interesting and nice to play.

So, my first question is: what is the complexity on editing Silkroad gameplay? I mean exp/drop rates, quests rewards or so... Do I need to master some programming language or is it possible to just edit the data files with some tool?

Second: By the videos I've watched, to create the server I need to configure the silkroad database on a windows server, so my question is: do I need to own a machine that will be running 24/7 or can I pay monthly for some cloud server? How will I configure the silkroad database on such server? (apologize I don't know sh't about these things)

And third: How can I create an anti-bot protection for the server? Do I need to develop a guard system by my own or are there already server files with these protections?

Thats all. Thanks for your attention and I hope someone can clear these questions for me :) see ya!

1. You can easy edit if you know what for a table :) main rates are in server.cfg and yes here some tools can do it but never trust a tool 100% can be bug you database if any query wrong !!

2. No im 100% sure will not work you dont have the protection also better is buy dedicated and some root server example i have 1 dedicated for silkroad server and filter 1x Root Server for SQL Server 1x Root Server for Website

3.You can buy a srofilter or use a free but you have not much place also max connect by free filter 50-100 ip Connection

1 small tip first learn 1 year and look how everything is structured and some things to edit

what the point of using separate servers for web-sql-server files ?

more security and is harder to hack

Thanks for the response mate!

Just some more questions :D about the dedicated web servers... just to get an idea, how much will I pay monthly for that?

And about you said on 3... what is a srofilter exactly? What does it do?

I'm sorry about these dumb questions, I'm new on this stuff, just starting to get into it.

Thanks.

as a start you can use only 1 virtual server (virtual one not dedicated) and use a free filter it's just a kind of testing
filter: is a tool which block known exploits and it has some features

keep in mind that it's for starting only and to gain some experience

im sure for 100 -120 euro is this a shit dedicated
without protection and has limited traffic and no windows server license

damn yea, 450 euro per month is a hell of a money hahahha you must make a great money with your sro server to be able to pay that xD

But I guess its the price to pay for a really great server...

By they way guys... Which is the best sro files for creating a no-bot server? Is there any version that would be better to use (that already has some anti-bot system) orI could use any files?
