Getting started on your own serverHey everyone, I'm Exist2inspire, and this is my guide to making a server. If you didnt understand what others are trying to say to you.. i'm pretty sure you'll get this 
First of all, you will need to get a few things:
winRAR - you will need this for extracting files, you can download it here
A JDK - this will allow you to edit .JAVA files etc. you can download it here
and MoparScape
Ok, now you have what you need.. let's get started!
1. Setting up your computer
You will need to make a few folders to help making a server more easy. on your desktop, right click then go new folder. call it Server. open up that folder and inside it make 2 more, 1 called Server, and 1 called Source.
2. Getting a Source
A source is a "premade" version of a server. It already has most things added to it - although you'll be able to edit what you want in your server later. click here to download a source. put it into the Source folder you made in step 1, copy it and paste it into your server folder also.
3. Extracting
Open your source folder and right click on the .rar file then go extract here. you should see heaps of stuff.. thats your server. now open up your server folder and extract the .rar file you copied from your source folder.
to sum up: you should have heaps of files and folders in both your server and your source foder.
4. Running your Server
look for the compile.bat, right click and edit it. press Ctrl + A then delete (delete every thing and i mean everything in the compile.bat file) and replace it with this (its the compiler for my server, feel free to rename it):
100% credits to me, the owner of Afterlife.
now save it.
click on the compile.bat file then type "r" to run your server. you should see something like:
starting something on 0.0.0.0: 43594
that's normal, it means your server is running.
5. Getting onto your server
Open up moparscape, (make sure you leave the runserver open) and log in with any username/pass. this will only work for you. other people will have to type in the server ip and port before logging in.
to find out your ip adress, go to www.whatsmyip.org and give the person your ip. then give them the port (usually 43594) and you should see them on your server
if you can't get this to work. you will need to port-forward. search google for port forwarding tuts.
soon i will add a no-ip and hamachi tutorial. to help people to get on your server more easily
well that sums up my tutorial, i hope you enjoy having your own private server as much as i do. Post any troubles you have and i will help you as much as i can.

now save it.
click on the compile.bat file then type "r" to run your server. you should see something like:
starting something on 0.0.0.0: 43594
that's normal, it means your server is running.
5. Getting onto your server
Open up moparscape, (make sure you leave the runserver open) and log in with any username/pass. this will only work for you. other people will have to type in the server ip and port before logging in.
to find out your ip adress, go to www.whatsmyip.org and give the person your ip. then give them the port (usually 43594) and you should see them on your server
if you can't get this to work. you will need to port-forward. search google for port forwarding tuts.
soon i will add a no-ip and hamachi tutorial. to help people to get on your server more easily
well that sums up my tutorial, i hope you enjoy having your own private server as much as i do. Post any troubles you have and i will help you as much as i can.
Thanks for reading
, would it be possible to send me a direct link to download it please? thanks alot
