Great guides being put together and exciting to see a MtG VM now! Thank you!

I was wondering however if there was a README in the VM for the server commands - I was able to update but haven't found how to launch and shutdown the server. When trying ./core3 I'm not getting any luck starting the server again.

Thanks!

I Just installed the newest version of the MtGServer VM and none of the travel maps show cities so I cannot travel from planet to planet. Any advice?

Have you checked bin/scripts/managers/planet_manager.lua?

And it looks like a Client problem.
Check datatables/travel/travel.iff

You need to use the same tre files for Client and Server.

How can I connect to the server and how do I start the server?
I installed everything and followed the instructions, activated the scripts etc. and copied all the .tre files to the client and server.

If Iam right the VM mtg (linux) = the server
my swg emu (windows) = client

I´ve never done this before but looks interesting and everything on the instruction page worked but I have no idea how to start the server and connect to it
I changed also the IP in the swg emu config... What is the default username and password to login via the swg emu client??

Open a terminal from the Server.
Look and get into 'mtgserver/MMOCoreORB/bin' folder and put: ./core3

Stop the server using: exit

How can I ./build the server after changing .cpp files?

Hello b33g.

Using 'make -j(number of your cores)' into MMOCoreORB/ folder.

Ex: ' make -j6 ' .It's six cores.

Thanks! Highly appreciated!

Sorry to bother, I've got another question. How can I hide those "object IDs" which I marked with the red squares?
I turned off all "Show xxx" in the misc menu of the IG client, but this did not help.

In the client files there's a user.cfg file. I changed all the below lines from =1 to =0 and it got rid of that.
[ClientUserInterface]
debugExamine=0
debugClipboardExamine=0
allowTargetAnything=0
drawNetworkIds=0

 

[b33g]

It works! Thanks a lot

Sorry for the question but can i use the PreCU client i have or is there an official MTG client i can use?

 

[Lasko]

you can use your client

 

[ShenLongKazama]

you can use your client

I was just wondering because the MTG server has CU and NGE content. Do i need the .tre files for the client aswell? Would make sense.

It has a bunch of CU and NGE files. Hence why we have our own tre files.
