Installation Guide

This goes over on how to setup a Solaris 10 virtual machine with the server files. The guide is adapted from other guides online, with my personal mix added in.

1. Preparations

Things you need:

1. VMware Workstation 12.5 Player for Windows 64-bit

http://www.vmware.com/products/player/playerpro-evaluation.html

2. Talesweaver Server Files

https://mega.nz/#!5MJFzLxY!Eu8zk3NiuSijmd_RU7-FvAdob7rCiA8KIIA6XpooneU

3. Talesweaver Client (We use 4.04J for this example)

https://mega.nz/#!AMlUyKBb!AY8igGyuBIIsd2gRSYHBxU6pAcY9UmXaKzVRXtXuNWg

4. Solaris 10 1/13 x86 iso

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/solaris10/downloads/index.html

5. WinSCP (makes transferring and managing files between computers MUCH easier)

https://winscp.net/eng/download.php

(optional) 6. Teraterm or any other preferred SSH terminal client

https://osdn.net/projects/ttssh2/releases/

(optional) 7. Notepad++ (for editing various files)

https://notepad-plus-plus.org/download/v7.2.2.html

(optional) 8. Locale Emulator (for changing encoding to client language)

http://pooi.moe/Locale-Emulator/

Feel free to install or get the portable versions of the various apps. I won't go into details of each one in this guide.

2. Setting Up VMware Workstation 12 Player

1. Upon opening up VMware Workstation 12 Player, select Create a New Virtual Machine.
2. Select Installer disc image file, and choose the sol-10-u11-ga-x86-dvd.iso that you've previously downloaded.
3. Give it a name (I called it TWServer) 
4. Allocate at least 20GB
5. Before you finish, go to Customize Hardware.
6. Allocate how much RAM you want it to have (I used 2048MB), and also the number of processors (I used 2).
7. For Network Adapter, choose Bridged mode. Keep Replicate physical network connection state unchecked, go to Configure Adapters, and check only the adapter connected to the internet. You can leave everything else on default.
8. Now you're ready to start the virtual machine! 

3. Installing Solaris 10

This should also be pretty straight forward.

Basically, unless you know what you're doing, keep picking the default option. Aside from a few things:

1. When asked if you want to use DHCP, choose no, and enter an IP address manually for this VM. Make sure to pick an IP address that your PC can reach.
   Typically, your PC is probably 192.168.1.x, or 192.168.0.x . For the VM, keep the first 3 sets of number the same, and pick a number that doesn't conflict with any machine on the network. In this example, I will use 192.168.1.200
2. Leave submask as 255.255.255.0
3. When asked which protocol used to join domain, use none.
4. For hostname, pick a name you can identify with (I used TWServer) 
5. Pick a password for root that you can remember, and DO NOT use blank. 
6. On top of English(posix), also install both of the Japanese language packs, euc and shift-jis
7. You can more or less leave everything else on default.
8. Sit back and wait while it installs! 

4. Setting up Solaris

4a. Setting up the shell and remote login

When you first boot up, you'll be greeted with a login screen. We'll want to use the console though, so go to Options and choose Command Line.

• Login with username root , and password is the one you specified previously.

Right off the bat when logged in, run the command bash, because the default shell sucks.

bash 

We will also allow root login from network, so you can finally use Teraterm to communicate with the server and say goodbye to the VM window.

To do this we need to edit the file /etc/ssh/sshd_config with vi:

vi /etc/ssh/sshd_config 

If you've never used vi before, it can get quite confusing. When the file is first opened, vi is in browse mode, so don't immediately start type.

First, use the arrow key to find the line that says:  (It's quite far down)

PermitRootLogin no

Hover the cursor over 'n' for no, and press x twice to delete the word.

Now press a to enter edit mode, then type yes so it looks like this:

PermitRootLogin yes

Hit Esc to exit edit mode, now we save and quit by typing :wq (Told you it gets weird)

Now we can restart the ssh daemon:

/lib/svc/method/sshd restart 

and we're done! Open up Teraterm, connect to 192.168.1.200, type in root and password, and viola!

Before we move on, let's also set bash as the default shell when we login, amongst other things. Copy the following code and paste it on Teraterm with right click.

usermod -s /usr/bin/bash root

echo "

export PATH=/opt/csw/bin:/usr/sfw/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/openwin/bin:/usr/dt/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:$PATH

export PS1=\"[\[\e[35;40m\]\u\[\e[0m\]@\[\e[36;40m\]\h\[\e[0m\] \[\e[0;31m\]\t\[\e[0m\] \[\e[33;40m\]\w\[\e[0m\]]\[\e[0;31m\]\\\\$ \[\e[0m\]\"

" >> ~/.bash_profile

If you get an error, re-login and try again. Sometimes it needs to refresh before you can write into .bash_profile

4b Setting up the Environment

Now that we can start copying and pasting code, things are going to speed up!

First we need to get internet to work. In this example I assume your router is at 192.168.1.1

cp nsswitch.dns nsswitch.conf

echo "nameserver 192.168.1.1" > /etc/resolv.conf

echo "192.168.1.1" > /etc/defaultrouter

Restart the server.

Now see if it works:

dig @8.8.8.8 www.google.com 

If you get a response from Google, you're good to go!

Now we need to download a few packages. I recommend running these commands one-by-one because it can take a while to download.

cd /export/home

wget http://download.nust.na/pub3/solaris/intel/5.10/ncurses-5.6-sol10-x86-local.gz

wget http://download.nust.na/pub3/solaris/sunfreeware/pub/unixpackages/x86/5.10/gd-2.0.35-sol10-x86-local.gz

wget http://download.nust.na/pub3/solaris/intel/5.10/gcc-3.4.6-sol10-x86-local.gz

wget http://download.nust.na/pub3/solaris/intel/5.10/openssl-0.9.8-sol10-x86-local.gz

wget http://download.nust.na/pub3/solaris/intel/5.8/db-3.3.11-sol8-intel-local.gz

Now we gunzip them and install the packages. For each pkgadd, type y to everything. Again, run one at a time

gunzip *.gz

pkgadd -d openssl-0.9.8-sol10-x86-local

pkgadd -d ncurses-5.6-sol10-x86-local

pkgadd -d gcc-3.4.6-sol10-x86-local

pkgadd -d gd-2.0.35-sol10-x86-local
pkgadd -d db-3.3.11-sol8-intel-local 

ln -s /opt/csw/lib/libncurses.so.5 /usr/local/lib/libncurses.so.5

ln -s /opt/csw/lib/libiconv.so.2.5.0 /usr/lib/libiconv.so.2

ln -s /usr/local/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 /lib/libgcc_s.so.1

ln -s /usr/local/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.3 /lib/libstdc++.so.6

ln -s /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.3/lib/libdb-3.3.so /lib/libdb-3.3.so

It's time to install the TW server files! Back on your PC, first unzip the server somewhere. (eg. C:\Temp1\tw404\ )

Using WinSCP, connect to 192.168.1.200. Now drag the entire folder over to the root directory (/) of the VM. Make sure there's no double folder like \tw404\tw404\

After it's done, we need to set permissions for those files.

chmod -R 755 /tw404 

4c. Setting up MySQL Server

We also need to install mysql, one of the databases used by the server.

But first, we remove the existing old versions to avoid conflict: (run these one by one)

pkginfo | grep -i mysql

pkgrm SUNWmysqlr

pkgrm SUNWmysqlt

pkgrm SUNWmysqlu

We will download, compile and install mysql 5.0.51

mkdir /usr/local

cd /usr/local

wget http://files.directadmin.com/services/all/mysql/mysql-5.0.51.tar.gz

gunzip -cd mysql-5.0.51.tar.gz | gtar xvpf -

cd mysql-5.0.51

# Compile command. this can take a few minutes 

CC=gcc CFLAGS="-O3 -fomit-frame-pointer-DHAVE_CURSES_H" \

CXX=gcc \

CXXFLAGS="-O3 -fomit-frame-pointer-felide-constructors \

-fno-exceptions -fno-rtti-DHAVE_CURSES_H" \

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/usr/local/mysql/data --enable-assembler --with-mysqld-ldflags=-all-static --with-charset=utf8 --with-extra-charsets=all

gmake

#and finally install  

gmake install

Setting up mysql and users

mkdir /usr/local/mysql/data

groupadd mysql

useradd -g mysql mysql

chgrp -R mysql /usr/local/mysql

chown -R root /usr/local/mysql

chown -R mysql /usr/local/mysql/data

chmod -R 770 /usr/local/mysql

Setup Solaris to run MySQL Server on startup

cp /usr/local/mysql/share/mysql/mysql.server /etc/init.d/

ln /etc/init.d/mysql.server /etc/rc3.d/S99mysql

ln /etc/init.d/mysql.server /etc/rc0.d/K01mysql

cp /usr/local/mysql/share/mysql/my-small.cnf /etc/my.cnf
 

Change encoding of MySQL to shift-jis. We need to edit /etc/my.cnf

If you haven't already, setup WinSCP to use Notepad++ for editing by default

So using WinSCP or vi, open and edit /etc/my.cnf

vi /etc/my.cnf

Find # [client] and add the following line to the end of section

default-character-set=sjis

Find # [mysqld] and add the following lines to the end of section

default-character-set = utf8

skip-character-set-client-handshake

character-set-server = utf8

collation-server = utf8_general_ci

init-connect = SET NAMES utf8

Start MySQL Server for the first time

/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqld_safe --datadir=/usr/local/mysql/data --user=mysql &

Initialize database

/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_install_db --basedir=/usr/local/mysql --datadir=/usr/local/mysql/data --user=mysql

Set root password for mysql

('your password' is your password, 'hostname' is whatever the hostname you picked when Solaris is installed. In this case it's TWServer)

/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'your password'

/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h 'hostname' password 'your password'

Connect to MySQL

/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql -u root -p

and enter your password defined just now

Create user gamedb, which is used by TW server. Again, replace 'hostname' with your hostname where applicable.

Do NOT change 'vlql=nrt' , '6e4637a643a8fc2b' , or 'gamedb'

CREATE USER 'gamedb'@'hostname' IDENTIFIED BY 'vlql=nrt';

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'gamedb'@'hostname' WITH GRANT OPTION;

UPDATE `mysql`.`user` SET `Password`='6e4637a643a8fc2b' WHERE  `Host`='hostname' AND `User`='gamedb';

Phew. That was long. Just a little bit more!

4d. Setting up the Game Server

We need to edit each of these three files and change the IP to your server's internal IP:

If you use Notepad++, you can highlight one instance of the old IP, type Ctrl-H to open the Replace dialogue, and replace with your current IP

/tw404/db/DB.cfg

/tw404/jtales*/table/DBs.jtales

/tw404/jtales*/table/Servers.jtales

IMPORTANT:

Until we find out how to bypass the check, the server kicks you immediately if the server time is current.

So for now, we need to set the server date to something old. (I've heard somebody in Japan has succeeded in bypassing the date check by hex-editing the jtales file. But he won't share how he did it so we're on our own >_>)

(date format is mmddHHMMYY, eg this sets date to 00:00 Jan 1, 2003)

date 0101000003 

You're now technically ready to start the server!

Let's just first testing and see if everything works.

open up 4 instances of ssh connections in root

On first window, we'll start the db server responsible for storing master account and character files

cd /tw404/db

./db -l ./logs/$LOGFILE.log

Second window, this is in charge of the login server

cd /tw404/jtales0

./jtales -d 12 jtales0

Third window, the first world server

cd /tw404/jtales1

./jtales -d 12 jtales1

And last but not least, the second world server 

cd /tw404/jtales2

./jtales -d 12 jtales2 

The game server files are designed to be able to run different regional servers for different responsibilities.

By configuring /tw404/jtales*/table/Servers.jtales , you can add or remove world servers and designate certain maps for certain servers. (Defined in Maps.jtales)

But for the scope of this guide, we will leave it as is.

Also, instead of doing it manually every time we can setup a script to start the relevant servers. More on that later

We're now ready to connect with game client!

4e. Setting up Game Client

First we go back to the PC and locate the client folder. If you installed it from the official installer, it'll probably be at C:\Program Files (x86)\Nexon\Talesweaver or something

Windows 10 compatibility

• Right click on InphaseNXD.EXE -> click Properties.
• Under Compatibility tab, check Reduced color mode, and select 16-bit(65535) color in the drop down list.
• Click OK. 

This will emulate the application in 16bit color mode, which the game client requires to run correctly in in windowed mode. (At least in 4.04)

Game shortcut

Inside this folder, we will create a new batch file. Let's call it Launch Game.bat for example.

Edit it in Notepad and we in a line like this:

start InphaseNXD.EXE /USE_SERVER 12 /ADDR xxxxxxxxxx /PORT 40000

goto end

We will replace xxxxxxxxxx with what would translate into your game server IP.

Math incoming! Here we need to do a little math.

Open up your scientific calculator, and follow this formula. If our server IP is 192.168.1.200, we do:

{ [ 200 * 256^3 ] + [ 1 * 256^2 ] + [ 168 * 256^1 ] + 192 }

You should get the answer 3355551936. So we replace /ADDR xxxxxxxxxx with /ADDR 3355551936 .

Save the file, and run the game with the batch file!

Alternatively, you can search for any IP to Long calculator and punch in the IP there.

HOWEVER, you'll need to reverse the numbers or it wouldn't work.

     eg. For 12.34.56.78 enter as 78.56.34.12

(optional) Locale Emulator

If you have Locale Emulator installed, right click on InphaseNXD.EXE -> Locale Emulator -> then Modify Application Profile.

In Enter argument here, put this part of the previous section here: (again, replace xxxxxxxxxx with the converted IP)

/USE_SERVER 12 /ADDR xxxxxxxxxx /PORT 40000

For Location, select Japanese (Japan).

And finally, click Create Shortcut and the game will launch in the proper encoding.

Next time you run the client, you InphaseNXD.EXE -> Locale Emulator -> then Run with Application Profile.

When asked for login credentials, just use username test and password test for now.

You can create a new character or just use the one supplied.

We will cover account creation in another section. The in-game account creation does not work as of writing.

Fingers crossed. And if it all goes well, you have successfully logged in!

This concludes this part of the guide. For other stuff like account creation, look for the respective sections!

Thank you for reading and I hope this helps you kick start your own server!

# 編集するであろうディレクトリのシンボリックリンク作成

#====================================================================================

# 毎回jtales1、jtales2にコピーするのはめんどくさいので、一部ディレクトリにシンボリックリンクを張ってjtales0のみを編集することにした

# １．jatles1、jatles2のquest、quest_data、tableディレクトリをバックアップ

mv /tw404/jtales1/quest /tw404/jtales1/quest_bk

mv /tw404/jtales1/quest_data /tw404/jtales1/quest_data_bk

mv /tw404/jtales1/table /tw404/jtales1/table_bk

mv /tw404/jtales2/quest /tw404/jtales2/quest_bk

mv /tw404/jtales2/quest_data /tw404/jtales2/quest_data_bk

mv /tw404/jtales2/table /tw404/jtales2/table_bk

# ２．jtales0からシンボリックリンク作成

ln -s /tw404/jtales0/quest /tw404/jtales1/quest
