How to make a Pokemon Mystery Universe Server!

First of all!
BEFORE YOU GONNE DO THIS ALL, DO IT AT OWN RISK, IF YOU GONNE MAKE IT PUBLIC OR WHATEVER PEOPLE MIGHT BE ABLE TO HACK YOU! so please don't give me the fault if you make it public... The source is a bit unsafty...
Thanks for coming to my tutorial!
I hope this will help you! Though
you need to know one thing: How to Portforward
Here is no tutoiral here for portforwarding so be sure to find one somewhere!

1.1 - Downloads All Programs

Spoiler:

(Sorry I need approval, I didn't sent 15 messages yet

1.2 - Installing winrar

Spoiler:

Open Installer
click on "Install"
Press "close"

Done

Click on "Next"
Click again on "Next"
Click on "execute"

After it's installed
Click on "Next"
Click then again "Next"

At "Config Type:", It doesn't realy care what you use, but use what fits
I recommend "Development Machine"
Be Sure "Enable TCP/IP Networking" Is enabled
Feel free to change "port number", but if you want to keep it on 3306, leave it then
Be sure "Open Firewall port for networ access" is enabled
Be sure "Show Advanced Configuration" is not enabled
Click "Next"

Type in "MySQL Root Password:" your own secret password!
Repeat the password in "Repeat Password:"
Click "Next"

Leave everything on default, just click "next"

2.1 - Extract Server

Spoiler:

Open "PMUSource" File
Open "Server.zip"
Click on "Extract to"
Make a Folder Somewhere. and Select it with Winrar
be sure the folder is called "Server"
Click on "ok"

2.2 - Load Up DataBase

Spoiler:

Open The Folder Where you extracted it
Right Click "Content_data"
Click "Extract to Content_data\"
After Extracting
Go in the Folder "Content_Data"
Right click "LoadTableBackup"
Click on "Edit"
Click "Run"

Change "-u usernameHere -pPasswordHere"
Example: If My Password on MySQL = Zorua321
You Changed it to "-u root -pZorua321"
!!! Remember to do them all 3 !!!
Save The File
Open "LoadTableBackup"
Click "Run"

!!! It Should Take more then 1 min, IF it took 1 min OR
Less, Somthing happend wrong... !!!
My time: One and a half hour

If it Succesfully Loaded
Do "Press any key to continue . . ."

done

If it UNSuccesfully Loaded
Repeat 2.2

2.3 - Navicat

Spoiler:

Open Navicat Premium
Click "Trail"
Click "File > New Connection > MySQL..."

Call "Connection Name:" Localhost
Call "Host Name/IP Address:" Localhost
Call "Port:" 3306 UNLESS you changed the port at MySQL
Call "User Name:" root
Call "Password:" (your password)
Press "Test Connection"

If "1045 - Acces denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
You insert Wrong Password

If "2003 - Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10038)
You Insert Wrong Port

If "Connection Succesfull"
Done

2.4 - Setting up Server Stuff

Spoiler:

GoTo "Server/Build/Data"
Right click "Config"
Click "Edit"

Change: <DatabaseUser>UsernameHere</DatabaseUser>
<DatabasePassword>PasswordHere</DatabasePassword>
Example: If "Zorua321" = Password of MySQL
<DatabaseUser>root</DatabaseUser>
<DatabasePassword>Zorua321</DatabasePassword>
Save The File
GoTo "Server/Build"
Open "Server"

If error
You did somthing wrong, Please repeat all the steps From 2.0!

If Server Starts up
Goodjob! Your server is Succesfully Working!

3.1 - Extract The Client

Spoiler:

Open "PMUSource" File
Open "Client.zip"
Click on "Extract to"
Make a Folder Somewhere. and Select it with Winrar
be sure the folder is called "Client"
Click on "ok"

3.2 - Connect to Server

Spoiler:

Goto "Client/Build"
!!! Be Sure "settings" file at = <Port>4001</Port>
<Server>localhost</Server> !!!
Open "PMU"

If Server says offline "For you"
Is the Port/<Server> Right?
is the Server up?

If Server says Online
Goodjob! Have fun playing~

4.1 - Client Is not loading maps

Spoiler:

GoTo "Client\Build\MapData"
Delete EVERYTHING Inside

4.2 - Server Is not Saving Passwords/every password = correct

Spoiler:

GoTo "Server/Server"
Open "Server" " (Not the folder, but the c# file)
(if is somthing pop's up when it's started, click "yes")
In the "Solution Explorer" Find "Security"
Under "Security" click on "PasswordGen.cs"

Then in the Toolbar "Tools>Settings>Expert Settings"
Then Check if Right from the sortha "play button" It says "Released"
Press "F6" or "Build>Build Solution" in ToolBar

Done

4.3 - Change yourself to Mapper/Admin/Scripter/...

Spoiler:

Close The Server With Task Manager
Open Navicat
Goto "localhost\pmu_players\characteristics"
!!! Be Sure you Registered/create a charachter already !!!
At your name at Access change the number to 1-6
1 -> Moderator
2 -> Mapper
3 -> Developer
4 -> Admin
5 -> ServerHost
6 -> Scripter

4.4 - Client Building Solution (error) (somthing with error box)

Spoiler:

GoTo "Client/Client"
Open "Client" " (Not the folder, but the c# file)
Click "The Error Box" error

Remove

Spoiler:

private void InitializeComponent()
{
this.SuspendLayout();
//
// ErrorBox
//
this.ClientSize = new System.Drawing.Size(284, 262);
this.Name = "ErrorBox";
this.Load += new System.EventHandler(this.ErrorBox_Load);
this.ResumeLayout(false);

}

private void ErrorBox_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

}

now you can build!

I hope the tutorial helped! If you have more question, be sure to ask! ^-^
Aswell Thanks to PMU 7 to make this possible (x


For people that don't wanne make one!
if you don't want to go through the trouble of setting up your own server, but still want to make dungeons, Download the mystery dungeon community project: tinyurl . com/MDX-Update-1

OR Visit the website: Pmdcommunity.x10.mx

This is pretty cool! o:
Thanks for taking your time giving the steps. I'd say you did a crisp job at getting all the information down.

Is another server being ran too

 

[ZoruaTheLittleFox]

yea It did took a while, but no problem, :)
Did my best making it easy as possible, I never really wrote a tutorial, so take this one as my first one haha!

Anyway thanks for replying ^-^

The source from Sprinko's GitHub doesn't work anymore...

I'm sorry if this is necroposting! But at least four people at various occations tried building either Client or Server project from Sprinko's GitHub, including ArtMax, to no avail. So necessary parts are missing from this project. In other words, unfortunately neither Client or Server sources from 2014 work.
