Chapter 1:::::
What is a server?

Well, we need to know what a server is before we make one. So I'll try to keep this as simple as possible. A server like runescape worlds is where players connect to your computer. While connected the player is using a Port to play on your server. This port is generally the other computers point of entry. But note that some people are after your data there people we call hackers.
To ensure you safety I will provide some info in chapter 9. BE WARNED... All hacks and loses will not be my responsibility by reading pass this you have agreed to those terms. Please don't bug me for any hacker related problems.
Now the server is fairly simple to start up so lets get going shall we?

****************************
Chapter 2::::
What can one do with a server?

Well since this is sythe.org and it's main game is runescape let focus on making a Runescape private server. These private servers are fun, interesting and simple to make. To make a runescape server one needs not full knowledge of java script because 95% of the work is done already. The work you will need to do is basic and stressless if you follow this guide corrrectly. With the server you can make rules/ become admin/ hire mods/ make own items/ make own npcs/ make own stores...And lot more

---------------------------------------------------

Chapter 3::::
Programs needed

This part of the guide I'll throw out programs that you'll NEED! :::
1. JDK & JRE
2. Source (Its ok if you dont have this yet I'll introduce you to some later on)
3. winrar ( http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm )

Now since you know what you need or what you don't you can go on.
If you have JRE & JDK please skip to Chapter 6.

*************************
Chapter 4::::
Programs Suggested (optional)

Here are some suggested programs that might help you:::
1. http://www.download.com/PC-Tools-AntiVirus-Free-Edition/3000-2239_4-10625067.html?cdlPid=10801861
This download is a free anti virus God forbid you meet a good hacker.

2. http://www.4shared.com/file/47867197/a0b7b9a8/Autorestarter.html
This is useful after you make your own server.

----------------------------------------------------
Chapter 5::::
Getting & installing JDK + JRE

Both of these are java programs you need in order to play and run server. Now I assume You already have JRE from just playing runescape so I won't touch on that too much.

Getting JDK::
All you need to do is to download it here.
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
Read the directions and install after installing you will need to restart your computer to make it work.

Getting JRE::
Same idea look here
http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp

Now to make sure you computer recognizes java you must follow the following steps: (skip if you dont have source yet) Only do once you open source and get an error that says "The system cannon find path specified".

1. Go to "My Computer"


2. Go here to "view system information"


3. You will encounter tabs toward the top of the pop up. Go to the "Advanced" Tab.


4. You will see a few list that say "performance" "user profile" & "Startup and recovery" but the button you want is "Environmental variables"


5. Now you will see something like below... click on "New" under "User variables"


6. Name it "CLASSPATH" and for the "Variable Value" ( For jdk 1.6.0_01 shown below put your verison in there you can find your version in C:\Program Files\Java\) put this in: CLASSPATH=C:\ProgramFiles\Java\jdk1.6.0_01\bin;%CLASSPATH%;


7. After you do that repeat step 5 which was to click new under "user variables" and add "PATH" and for the "Variable Value" (once again for jdk1.6.0_01 but the version you have) put this in: C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_01\bin\


8. Click ok to apply.


9. click on again to finish. Restart computer.


*******************************
Chapter 6::::
Port forwarding (router users)

Only do this step if you are using a router. A router is a device that turns one cable connection into many... this also includes wireless routers.

The guide below is for routers made by linksys if your not a linksys user please go here and find a guide http://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/routerindex.htm

1. Go to start bar.
2. Click run.
3. type in cmd then click run
4. type: ipconfig

Now it should say something like this:


Now the 1st number that says ip adress & remember the defult gateway too is what you need

5. Go to internet explorer or any other internet browser and for the adress type in the defult gateway which is generally 192.168.1.1


6. Something like this should show up... type in your router's username and pass defult is username: linksys Password: admin


7. This will show up and you need to go to the tab on the top that says "applications and gaming"


8. in this tab we will see ip adresses... now put you ip adress i told you about before in the ip slot then put from port 43594 to 43594 ... click both option or check both boxes and click enable towards end.


so in conclusion this is what it should be:
Example:
Application Name: Project v16
Start - End Port: 43594-43594 (Change to which ports to want to enable)
Protocol: Both
To IP Address: Your IP at Start > Run > Cmd > ipconfig
Enabled: Checked/Yes

If so click save.

Chapter 7::::
Obtaining Source

Now there are a lot of sources out there here are some I know of:
Testscape: http://www.megaupload.com/nl/?d=X9Y464J9
Project 16: http://www.megaupload.com/nl/?d=LHKND52G
Cheezescape: http://www.megaupload.com/nl/?d=W8NCP0YC
Killa's Collection(includes sources guides, links, codemakers, and a lot more!): http://rapidshare.com/files/117251521/Killa_s_collection.rar.html
You might need winrar... which is located in chapter 3. or download my collection pack!

******************************************
Chapter 8::::
No-ip

Now you want to keep your ip a secret. so visit no-ip.org make a free account and make a domain name... quite easy... if you need any help with it post here....

-------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 9::::
Running server and key facts

Now to advertise your server just post on forums all over. Always remember a server is for others to have fun on not to own noobs.
To advertise give people a client like moparscape or silabsoft these are clients they can be located at www.moparscape.org or www.client.silabsoft.org
the ip adress should be the domain you put in at no-ip.org
For example ::: My servers are ::
Silabsoft:::
ip adress: runescape0wned.no-ip.org
Port: 5555
&
Moparscape:::
ip adress: runescape0wned.no-ip.org
port: 43594

Now to make your self admin all the above stated sources have a folder called data in that folder you will see a .txt file called administrators. just simply put you name in there.

Hackers might come so when faces with the hacked ban their account by putting the name of the account in banuser.txt located in data file. Also go to file called "characters" get their ip and ban that by puting that in bannedips.txt also in data file.
Fire walls are great protection against hackers keep you windows filewall on... also you can download windows defender at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...=en&wt_svl=10366WH_OS_Other1&mg_id=10366WHb1#

I didn't make this process by my self so i thank my teachers at moparscape.org and silabsoft.org...... I hope you enjoy!!!!

 

How To::
Chapter 1: Make my self admin or make people mods and so on...? = how to edit stats!
Chapter 2: How to Make a Moparserver into a Silabserver?
Chapter 3: Making a Ip ban that works?
Chapter 4: How do I have simple commands?
Chapter 5: Java programing made easy... Just think!

Hi welcome to my how to section... in this section you will be learning the basics of programing... and some easy and wonderful ways to make your server a great server!
Lets start off chapter 1 !!!
**********************************************
Chapter 1::::::
Making my self admin or making others mod and so forth? + Stat editing!

This process is easy and simple!!! but of course if it was easy for you you wouldn't be reading this.. so I hope I can help you out!
Depending on which source you pick you need to do different things!! I will show 2 main ways here:::
1st way:: Editing player.rights!

- Open your source (should look like this) Then click on Characters


- Once opened find the character you want to make admin/ mod and/or give stats to in this case we use my account (admin killa)


- Once you located the account you replace Player rights with the wanted status... and for stats replace lvls and exps Look below


- Save the notepad and get out and try it out have fun!

-----------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 2::::::
How to Make a Moparserver into a Silabserver?

This is going to be hard because I can't make Pictures for this coding... but I hope you understand...

1st lets start with ItemHandler.java In here you need to change every 10000 you see to a 30000 (be smart read a little if the code around says something like

Code:

Public int item <= 10000 

) then thats probaboly something you want to change since you want more items ... and thats because silab does have more items! heres a contradiction:::

Code:

 public void newItemList(int ItemId, String ItemName, String ItemDescription, double ShopValue, double LowAlch, double HighAlch, int Bonuses[]) {
		// first, search for a free slot
		int slot = -1;
		for (int i = 0; i < 9999; i++) {
			if (ItemList[i] == null) {
				slot = i;
				break; 

Make the above i < 9999 into i < 10000

after wards you need to do the same thing for client.java..... Please read around each 10000 you find .... (ctrl + r ) replace ... makes it easyer

After wards you need to add the new items in you folder called CFG and the text file which you open with notepad .... called ITEMS
heres the silabsoft client item list ::: http://silabsoft.no-ip.org/output.txt

Now you need too put the stats of each new piece of armour and prices.. This will ne explained later on but until then

complie and run server should run smoothly on silab!!!
******************************************************
Chapter 3:::::
Making an ip ban that works !!

Most servers have a file called Bannedips.txt in the data section of the source but that doesn't work because the servers are made that the hackers can come back on a different account.... so therefore a little change in the server is ideal....

In this part you will be using Server.java located when you open you folder in which you source is ....
Now once you open that find this line

Code:

public void run() { 

Now Under it you will see something like :

Code:

if (connectingHost.startsWith("

If you do under that there should be 1 line of random stuff... change that line to

Code:

s.close()

And after the if (connectinghost.startsWith(" add the ips you wana ban ") and so on to add more than one do

Code:

 if (connectingHost.StartsWith("ip of user") || connectingHost.StartsWith("ip of user ") 

ans so forth.....
-------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 4:::::::
How to make simple commands???

Well Let evaluate a example because i think thats the best way of learning......

Code:

else if (command.startsWith("tools"))
	{
		addItem(1755,1);
		addItem(946,1);
		addItem(1777,1);
		addItem(590,1);
		addItem(2389,1);
		addItem(2347,1);
		addItem(311,1);
		addItem(2946, 1);
		addItem(4179, 1);
                addItem(1438, 1);
                addItem(305, 1);
                addItem(301, 1);
                addItem(952, 1);		
	}

The code above is easy so lets learn it... if one looks closely they can see that....

Code:

else if (command.startsWith("

just means if player commands is blah blah blah then ::::

Code:

addItem(1755,1);

This part is just telling it what to do... so whenever you spawn or pick up a item this

Code:

 addItem(,);

should be around .... now if you wanted to make a command that spawns a ... cooked chicken then it would look like this::: (you can find the item ids in file CFG notepad Items)

Code:

else if (command.startsWith ("chicken")) {
addItem(2140, 1); 
}

Notice the 1 after 2140(chicken Id number located in items.cfg) the 1 simply means give one.....

This is a simple code that will make players enjoy your server!!! please remember not to put the code just anywhere .... most servers have a place to put it ... to find that place press ctrl + f and seach "tool most servers have a tool command.... pleace the code after a }
If you haven't noticed yet } is to show that you done with command... if u miss it then you will get errors beond control.....

Next intersting code I'd like to show you is the tele code.... These codes include "fish" and "cw" I'll show you how to make a new one.
Below is the "cw" code.... we use it to study ....

Code:

if (command.startsWith("cw")) {
					teleportToX = 2440;
					teleportToY = 3089;
					updateRequired = true;
			appearanceUpdateRequired = true;
						}

looks like a mouth full but its easy as pie so heres the break down.... same as before.... if is just like else if but its a extention.... for example else if is conradicting the statements around it ..... it shows your not really on 1 single topic... but since the "cw" code was found near a bunch of codes with similar fuction one can use if... and not else if.... if i didn't explain too well its ok... because when you compile your sever you will be propt if you did something wrong.....
so we know what the top means likes learn the bottom....

Code:

teleportToX = 2440;
teleportToY = 3089;
updateRequired = true;
appearanceUpdateRequired = true;

This says what it looks like tele to x coordinates and thenteletoy coordinates.... UpdateRequired tells the server to update the characters place.... and appearanceUpdateRequired means basicly the same for all beginners perposes ....
to create your own .... just replace the name and the y and x coordnates.... easy!!!

Now that all ill teach right now but remember advance codes doesn't mean your a better or worse coder... they just know more codes....
Learn your self look around .... in your server! Java's website has a basic guide!!! FREE!

chapter 5:::
Learning java!

In this segment ill go over a complex code with you to show you that it isnt really hard to understand and you can learn from it !

Let take a look a a pking code!

Code:

		if (GoodDistance(EnemyX, EnemyY, absX, absY, 1) == true || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 859 || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 861 || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 4214 || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 4734 || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 861 || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 837 || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 767|| playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 4214 || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 6082 || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 2883 || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 4212 || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 839 || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 841 || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 843 || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 845 || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 847 || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 849 || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 851 || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 853 || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 855 || playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 857) {
		  if (LoopAttDelay <= 1) {
		    if (duelStatus > 2) {
			if (EnemyHP <= (int)((double)((double)getLevelForXP(EnemyHPExp) / 10.0) + 0.5) && PlayerHandler.players[AttackingOn].playerEquipment[playerRing] == 2570) {
				PlayerHandler.players[AttackingOn].SafeMyLife = true;
			} else {
				if (PlayerHandler.players[AttackingOn].IsDead == true) {
					ResetAttack();
                                        DuelVictory();
				} else if(!UseBow && !duelRule[1]){
					//actionAmount++;
					//setAnimation(playerSEA);
					CalculateMaxHit();
                                        if(Hit(AttackingOn)) 
		                        hitDiff = misc.random(playerMaxHit);
                                        else
                                        hitDiff = 0;
					PlayerHandler.players[AttackingOn].hitUpdateRequired = true;
					PlayerHandler.players[AttackingOn].updateRequired = true;
					PlayerHandler.players[AttackingOn].appearanceUpdateRequired = true;
                                        if(playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 5698) {
                                        hitDiff = misc.random(playerMaxHit);
					PlayerHandler.players[AttackingOn].hitUpdateRequired = true;
					PlayerHandler.players[AttackingOn].updateRequired = true;
					PlayerHandler.players[AttackingOn].appearanceUpdateRequired = true;
                                        }
                                        AttackingOn2.KillerId = playerId;
                                        AttackingOn2.inCombat();
                                        setAnimation(GetWepAnim());
                                        if(playerEquipment[playerWeapon] == 4726)
                                        {
                                        stillgfx(398, absY, absX);
                                        }
                                        AttackingOn2.setAnimation(GetBlockAnim(AttackingOn2.playerEquipment[playerWeapon]));
                                        LoopAttDelay = PkingDelay+10;
					if ((EnemyHP - hitDiff) < 0) {
						hitDiff = EnemyHP;

WOW what a mouth full!!! na easy lets break this down!!
Lets see what it says .... you look and tell me ..... SCROLL down for answers



-----------------------------------------------
answer!:
This is a code with dueling if you didn't know that much I'll find no shame in calling you stupid....this code basically says if player puts on these items they must be so close to the enemy to attack.... then it tells the server to referr to code on how much damage should be delt and after it checks if player has died the other player wins.... while this is going on the server is constanly changein the hp of other of you.... this code is the update codes....

the next segment is the range version basically same but with minor changes in code... these changes are arrows checking.... and distance changing....

Please notice the hitdiff code... this codde is a very important one without this code no damage will be delt .....

HAPPY SERVERING!!!!

 

Amazing axel..

 

ehh... people dont like my posts :\

 

good job.

 

Thanks if anyone needs help with anything... just ask...

I can code as well...

 

Can you explain more how to open port 43594 for you and me it is easy to tell it but the newbies need more help.

 

Yeah I'm just going to keep improving this post till it becomes a sticky ..

 

well either people don't make servers much... or my guide is soo goood they have no problems

Or my guide is soo bad that they see it and run...

 

Im having problems.....
At the port forwarding do i have to type exactly what you have in all the boxes?
and i seem to get this message when i do that.. "Port Overlap...Blah blah blah"
could use some help please
thanks!
Btw, I play your server... The names axe..

 

the silbasoft one wont load for me. I clicked yes when it asked me if i trusted it, but then the game screen just turned white... Anyway- was the silbasoft 1 made with visual studio becuz i know visual basic, but thats about it!

 

Yeah chicken, Um looks like you did port forwarding wrong... u dont need to have exactly what i have i put lines... ip adress shows up when u do run>cmd>ipconfig .... i said that aready... and you can have 2 of the same port numbers enable let say i put port 5555- 5555 and enable.... thats fine but if i do that 2 times like 5555 - 5555 for ip adress 3212 and port 5555- 5555 for ip 3434 then it gives you that erro ... make sure you know your ip adress and make sure u only enable 1 not 2 line

 

im having the same problem and cant fix it..

 

Not a bad guide. Just one thing I hate about all server guides . Not everyone has a linksys router so not everyone can port forward from your gude. Took me for everrr to find out how to port forward.

 

u no the address bit wher u have to type thedefaultgateway
im stuck on that bit what do u type and where?

 

If you mean getting to port forwarding screen you need to type you defult gateway ip into internet explorer... i hope that helps you out

 

dude
i love u axel lol
u just made things ALOT easier for me

 

Hey a x t l, Runescape0wned is awesome its one of my favorite servers, and now that u post a tut on how u did it i can code my server into a better one yay, thx

 

Very Good Tut, Thanks For The Help.

 

I have followed this guide to the letter, however I still cannot get the stupid compiler to work. I have made a PATH and CLASSPATH to my JDK, but when I try to run the compiler it still doesn't work!!!! I am starting to get frustrated. I have tried all of the different compilers that were included in Killa s collection and i still cannot get the compiler to work. It just says that I do not have a version of JDK installled when I can see it in the java file.I have made a server for one of my friends on his computer, but I cant get a server to work on my own computer. Any help would be greatly appreciated. (by the way i have JDK 6u6
