EDIT: I figured it out.

in arcadia summonresource
attack_range
change it and reload rdb to client

Thanks for your reply, I have another question.

How do I get the game server to recognize the Billing Database? Is there a line I need to add to the .opt files, or is there another way?

[.BlackCat.]

No need Meziel , Just restore Billing Database on your SQL Server, and Game server will read it just like that

Go in the resource folder located in your server files and find the file called b4e51c7c6f9cd671cf2bb33b2aa2d263.lua (server_init). Open the file with some sort of text editor and find the function called royal_server_buffs(). It should be near the top. There you can edit the event buffs you want to be cast on server start up, or you can comment-out/remove the line royal_server_buffs() in the on_server_init() function to have no buffs be cast.

Hey,

I cannot login to my server, whenever I attempt to login it comes up on my Auth console, but it says this.
I have made the password into an md5 hash and everything.

Also, when I start up my CaptainHerlockServer.exe it just does this:
then it disappears/shuts itself down.

Any help would be appreciated!

Make sure you are using the correct MD5 key. The MD5 hashed result should be KEYPASSWORD hashed.

Be careful of special symbols in the password which may or may not be coded into the game server.

Try something basic to start with

Arcadia database should be named "Acadia" in order to run properly with the .opt file examples. It should not be named "Arcadia8_1" as it restores to.

I am using salt 2000 and my password is lucky, so I put in the md5 hash gen 2000lucky. I then put the hash into the SQL database, with the other users, just like it says in tutorial, then I attempt to login using 'lucky'.
It might be because of the CaptainHerlockServer.exe problem.


I renamed the database to 'Arcadia' and it didn't work, then I deleted it and restored a new 'Arcadia' and it didn't work. Any ideas?

[ThunderNikk]

Check your MD5 key in the opt file for authserver.opt

By default it is 2011 so unless you changed it to 2000 the key or what you call "salt" may be wrong.

Captain still crashes after renaming the Arcadia database properly?

Could be the machine you are trying to run it on then.

Not sure if it is an .opt issue without seeing your opt files...(the example .opt files will usually work without many changes.)

[reggiewestside]

I have fixed the Captain.exe problem, but I still cannot login when in-game. In the opt file the md5 key is 2011, my password is "regan" without quotes, I put them together to make 2011regan, then I put it into the md5 hash gen, I then got the hash and put it into password in my database, when I try to login using "regan" it just says that the id or password is incorrect.
I have the TCP port as 1433 in SQL Server Config Manager, the 'S db.auth.port' is 1433 also.
I have no idea what's going on, help?

You aren't trying to use an 8.3 client with the 8.1 server files are you?

The server authentication type changed and with the 8.1 server files you should be using an 8.1 client.

You can try to create an 8.1 8.3 hybrid client but you will still end up needing to use the 8.1 sframe.

I am using an 8.1 client, at least I believe I am. Can you link me to an 8.1 client just incase?

I just checked and Google can link you to an 8.1 client just fine.
