I personally must be missing something here, we see that a few others have no problems getting this server working, yet others are having the same problem as me... let me explain..

I took 2.51 version, as was - put across to machine, went through all the files so the IP etc was right, ran the server and it of course ran no problem, gate 0 open for business. Now I have tried god know how many mir3.exe files i have in my collection, including the one supplied which is using the new interface. Log on as a exsisting user - Wrong game version and it quits. Log on as a New User - I cannot even connect to server, some error on the server console....

I even sat down and hexed it to death using the 6 magic one as a comparison so i could maybe use my exsititing files from JOB - once again, server is fine, wrong client error. I found a post reference Hexing the client + server for version number, only thing is, i cannot find this hex in the exe's i have, even in the one supplied on the post.

Can someone explain who has it working what they did, from running the server (did you restore the databases for example, I already had one from JOB), what client exe you used, what interface it has, old or new and so forth. Its Obiuos that there is some who have it working and other who have the same error as me...

I dont really want to spend too much time on it, The objective i was after was simple, to take the KingforEiserver only and use it with my exsisting set of files...cos they work and are in english..

Ok peoeple - Stand WELL back - Time for me to make a bit of a post....and you aint gonna like it :)

First off, I posted AGES ago with screen shots of the latest client, but I also backed this up with the fact It did not work properly - yes I could run about, kill mobs and so forth but the problem was that items were Un-Droppable etc. Now if the said client really does work (which it may well do), then can you also post a screen shot of you bag and other bits, or get fraps and make a video so we can see you dropping and picking up items. Kill a mob and show you get more than 0 Exp for example..

Ok thats that off me chest -- LOL

Next up - I asked EVERYBODY on the planet how they got it working (the ones who said they did have) and either they never replied, they said they just ran the files or "forgot"..The other half of the population though, posted as well as I did that every single client said "Wrong version". Was a Tad frustrating to say the least, but Unlike the rest, Maybe I might be able to clue up the others why and how ....

If you run KINGFOREIServer Only - then every single client will say "wrong version". If you run Collage, this bring up console and starts the server and THEN you can log in and play, see the magic working and so forth, did people forget to mention this??? Probably..

Now onto the next problem, you can hex King Server to your hearts content, but as its not running that file but is actaully inside the Collage,exe, then you wont be able to read your books, unless you have the db in chinese and copy and paste that in.

Now i have spoken to a few on MSN, they say (can i beleive them) they can read the books in english, they can connect by just running King server and not even that collage thing.. Now i must be going stupid (yer i am i know) cos i have tested every thing 5 times and only the above what i typed works...

If others have somehow magically got there to work - then I await for a Full break down (techinal) on what, why and wherefor.....Ill hold my breath shall i ??

No one has it working as far as I can see, Nightwolf MIGHT claim to have, but tbh I think he is just talking bull, anything he ever posts is pointless info that never helps with the questions asked. As Demonic pointed out there is NO proof that anyone has a fully working sever, I could post screenies as well and make it look like its all working. Your all letting this toss and others that post "look at me i'm great" posts to wined up up. Buy replying with "oh thats great" "nice 1 m8" etc you just boost his ego even further. I don't know who runs this forum or how Nightwolf is still a moderator but I'd deleate every post that is just there to make the sad poster fell good.

p.s. I'm not just singling out Nightwolf but when it concerns mir3, hes the worst I've seen.

Flame or ban me if you want I cba with this server anymore. I only ever wanted to play with a couple of m8's on the LAN with a translate server and have some fun, something some of you dont understand and take pleasure in waisting it for other good people on this forum.

Take the chill pill dude :)

If its a MIR3 Job server your after, Im busy working on one which is fully english using new (smaller) maps etc. It wont have the 13 new magics in there cos I have yet to fully rip the KingforEiserver apart so it works fine (though I am close).

I already have the JOB (using older maps) just about sorted or as close as but I thought it would be handy to produce two different servers so people can have a choice of which type they like best.

At the moment there is too many sets of files that are in chinese - combined with SQL been hard to understand, not enough people are getting into MIR3 - this will soon change..

i have the files fully translated to english including the db's, im just looking for the perfect client to use them...

Chinese client works almost perfect but has a bug on the items, they are all dura 0 and u can't take them off, apart of that it works preatty good.

Im using a mix of chinese and korean right now, everything wor~ks good but still have a few probs.

Right now im downloading the Korean client to test it on the server, if it works ok server will be be up soon for play!

I can tell you now (to save you messing about), Korean client will say Wrong version as will Euromir3, chinese client will let you in and you can play but as you said items wont drop and mobs give Zero Exp. The reason this happens is rungate is getting the wrong info thus where your Item number is in the database, its putting that as level for example.

What is needed basically is a new rungate I belive or the client hexed to death to match the older one in terms of what it sends/recieves.

As for the King Server itself, I have been hexing it / disembling it and its possible to make it so any client works (as per what 6-30 did anyhow) as well as the magics working. What my end goal is - to take this exe and turn it into a normal server.exe which will run on any set of files, not just the ones they supplied.

Don't know if this will help you Demonic but this is what I get using the mir.exe with the king server.
If you run LoginSvr > Logingate > DBSvr > EiServer and when the server is finished loading up clicking on the initilise button comes up with this...

U-Engine initialized..
KingForEiserver 1.1-SP6 Loading Succeed...

Well this exe gets wierdier by the second - I done a bit of random hexing, comparing and matching with 6-30 exe, I run it and not only do I get with a bog standard client (776K and a few others) but the magic works. I do a bit more hexing so it reads my JOB NPCs (cos by default it errors on ever single one of them) and we are way back to square one - Wrong client version .. ARGHHH

So what I did was hex ONE hex at a time, try it and now cannot get at all the server to accept any client - so this is a tad puzzling now to say the least. As far as Im aware the client version is encoded into the server itself, i found the hex codes to change it even. It does not seem to take any notice from what I can see of the setup thing, i even removed the file and it ran anyhow.

My only main thing to get working really was the server itself, the NPCs etc Im not fussed about - this can be done on the 6-30 version (6 extra magics made on 30th Nov). Ill keep plugging away and you never know, i may get lucky...
