Official 5165 FAQ/Question thread

[Secrets-man]

Might be a dummy question, but any idea umm, how to get rid of potency?and uhh, I think I know how to get rid of nobility.. but if any ideas or could give me a little hint where to find the files.. I could do it myself. checked a few places and couldn't find the potency thing T_T also I think I need to do some client side edit..

I solved this problem before. But I gave up on p servers for a bit but now TQs rly ****** me off and I wanna cool off by making a 5165 server BUT I CANT REMEMBER HOW TO FIX THE PROBLEM :O The problem I'm getting is "The database folder doesn't exist, cannoy start server" BUT! It's not like the other ones like this. My cnfig.ini is correct see!

[Database]
GameServerIP=MY IP IS HERE
ConquerPath=C:\OldCODB\ <--thats where it is...
WebServerPort=8080

[MySql]
User=root
Password=XXXX

I opened the source and followed Korvacs guide to run the project in 32 bit. But I get the same error. i fixed this problem in December but i seriously forgot what I did...Who can help? =D
OH BTW! I'm running Windows 7 64bit!! I remember that having something to do with it.
Do I need visual Studio 2010 cuz atm i got 2008. I already hav .net framework 4.0 so thats not it.

You MUST have the files put in the C:\OldCODB\

if not it won't work (you can't place the server in another folder unless you change a ton of stuff in the source (which is stupid but w/e)

Actually team mode if coded same as real co prevents attacking friends and guildmates also. You need to add the check to your attacks (I assume lotf has some sort of CheckMode function? Run the target through a check to see if it matches the client guild (if so return and then run it through the clients friend list.

Quite simple check to add but yah, not something most sources seem to have coded by default (which is odd)

Yes the IDs are in "itemtype.txt", but how can i find out now, how to get the Texture and Mesh IDs, which belong to the Garments?
I tried in "weapon.txt", but arent inside there

Think I added the packets of ItemLock on a wrong line, right? That's what that error is all about.. or what?

It would help if you didn't cut off the error lol. We can only see half of it so it makes it alot harder to troubleshoot.

I get this error when I run "NewestCOServer.exe"



I got "OldCODB" in my C: and everything properly configured, I don't get this error...is it because I'm running a x64 Windows 7 PC?

Nah, It shows the whole error. Just that the exception said it twice. And I put the packet to public COPackets2 instead of COPacket . But I moved it there and no more exceptions. Kinda knew that I put it in a wrong place.
