First off, let me explain what we are making and the difference between a Hamachi server and a normal server. We will be using hamachi. The difference between the two is that for a Hamachi server you must give the people who want to join your server access to your "room" on Hamachi. Many people dislike this option because it isn't as easy for random people to join. Another con is that the "room" can only hold a maximum amount of people, meaning depending on how many people play your server, you may need to create multiple rooms.

Some things that are GREAT about Hamachi is that it helps you monitor who comes into and plays your server or not. It also helps you get to know your community a little easier, and it provides a IM chat messaging system. This is the reason why we will be using Hamachi, since this guide it for starters!



Step 1: Install Hamachi and run it.

You should see a series of numbers on top, this will serve as your Hamachi IP, remember that. Next click on "Network" and press "Create a new network".

Fill in the information as followed. Try to make it simple so its easier for people to log in to. I recommend writing down this information, for it is vital that you know it for people to join the server.



Step 2: Next you will need a source. What is a source you ask? A source is your whole server! This contains the vital codes that make your server. This is Runescape.

Here is a list of sources you can browse through, once you've found one that catches your eye, virus scan it and then download it. All of these sources are PRE-CODED, meaning it is ready to play. (Remember, this is a starters guide to private servers, we won't go into coding for yourself yet)

Once you've found yourself a source, open it up and press "extract". Select where you would want to extract it to (I recommend desktop)





Step 3: Next you will need a client. But I just downloaded a source, whats a client!? A client is what is going to show your server! Its what masks over the codes and makes the game playable! This is VITAL to playing your server.

If you've already downloaded a client with your source, then great! Skip this step! If you haven't yet downloaded one, I recommend downloading:

Once you've found yourself a client, open it up and press "extract". Select where you would want to extract it to (I recommend desktop)

If you're tired of downloading, and just want to use a webclient, try using:

Step 4: Next we will be starting up your server and playing on it.

First, go to your source folder and press "run.bat" (This could also be called runserver.bat or start.bat. If you still can't find it, try to find something that indicates it)

Once you've clicked it, a black box should pop up. This is good. Do NOT exit it, just let it sit there and run.

Congrats, you've started up your server! Now you need to go on and play it!





Next, make sure that you have turned on Hamachi, and pressed "Power on".

Open up your client folder and go to the following files:

"GUI" and "Server"

Press CTRL+F in each folder and search for "localhost" or "127.0.0.1". Change this to your HAMACHI IP. Yet again, this is VITAL for people to get on to your server. Once you've done that, save and close the files.

Next find "Compile.bat" and run it. Let it sit for a few minutes until it is done.

Finally, you are ready to play your server, locate "run.bat". Your client should show up.


Step 5A: You are now ready to play! If you have downloaded a client, simply log in with your desired credentials.

(Make sure that you have Hamachi on and your source running.)

Whenever you feel like playing on your server, simply go into your source file and press run.bat and then go into your client file and press run.bat. (Hamachi must always be running)


Step 5B: No worries moparscape client users, I haven't forgotten about you! To log into your server from silab or moparscape, simply type in your desired credentials and under that type in your Hamachi IP.

(Make sure Hamachi and your source is running before logging in)




Step 6: How can people play on my server, you may ask? (For downloaded client users)

First off, make sure they have Hamachi downloaded to their computer. Once they have opened up Hamachi, press "Network" and then "Join an existing network". Give them your log-in credentials.

Next, give them your newly updated client. Log in with your desired Username and Password.


Step 6B: How can people play on my server? (For mopar users)

Repeat the first step from "Step 6".

Next, redirect them to silab or mopar, and simply give them your IP to log in with.



Hopefully this tutorial helped a bit. If you have any questions or concerns, please ask. NO, I will not make a server for you, but I can assist you. I will be making a more in depth tutorial on how to make your server non-hamachi/ getting into the basics of customizing your server soon.

Make On For NGU lol Niceee

NGuscape

Thats a good guide :y:
Any estimate to when the tutorial for non-hamachi servers will be out?

I'll do it very soon, coming off any sec

Lol rs private servers used to be fun... Now all I just play world of warcraft private servers

Lol WOW is too expensive :/

Thanks bro, i'll try it when I get home, why did you make a tutorial without hamachi, what's wrong with hamachi? Thanks.

Because if you want people to play on your server they need hamachi too. Some people don't like that, it's easier though

Dude, I don't understand step 5, I tried to find the files but I can't, can you make a video tutorial or something? TY.
