Getting Snowball Server started

Added by ochensati almost 5 years ago

Ok. I managed to get the parts of the project built that can be built with VC express. The only thing that seems to need help is that the picture of the include directories shows

r:\code\nel\src

where the instructions do not.

Now for my questions. I can start the snowball client and it shows a little man that throws snowballs. But if I try to start the servers and then connect there is all kinds of problems.

1. naming_service.cfg is missing. I copied this file from the ryzom project. It seems to work ok.
2. This allowed me to start all the services that are listed in the directory, but the client still cannot connect
3. I changed the snowballs_client.cfg file
Local = 0;
Login = "login2";
Password = "password2";
LSHost = "";
FSHost = "localhost:51007";

4. this does not connect the client. The client wants to connect with the login service, so I tried to start the login service, but there is no .cfg file to be found for the login service. Is it possible to get an example file of the login service config file?

You've got snowball data here:

I can run snowball, however i've got video issues, mapping errors.

Thank you for the reply. I had found the data already.

I can get the client started and steer the little cow thing around, but I cannot log on to the server. I start the naming service with the naming_service.cfg file from the ryzom folder. This seems to work. I can start the other services in the snowball folder, but the client seems to need the login service. I cannot start the login service without a .cfg file, but there does not seem to be an example anywhere. Is it possible to get an example file, or do I need to dig through the login service program to find what is needed in the .cfg file?
