I am trying to setup a local server for just my friends and I to play on, and I am running into some problems.
I followed the "Everything Server Ubuntu" guide that is located here ...
https://ryzomcore.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/RC/pages/19365997/Eve rything+Server+Ubuntu
It was really outdated, but I after some trial and error I did manage to get a server up and running, inside a VirtualBox VM.
It appears to be working okay, but how do I connect a client to it?
I am on Windows 10, and I downloaded the official client from here ...
https://download.ryzom.com/ryzom_installer_windows.exe
But I don't see any way to configure it to connect to a local server. I did some digging and found the following configuration file ...
C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Local\Ryzom\ryzom_live\client_default.cfg
And I see these settings ...
Application = { "ryzom_live", "./client_ryzom_r.exe", "./" };
BackgroundDownloader = 0;
StartupHost = "shard.ryzom.com:40916";
StartupPage = "/login/r2_login.php";
StartupVerify = 1;
I tried changing "StartupHost" to my VM's IP, and it didn't seem to do anything. I then went through a bit of the source code on Github, and it looks like "ryzom_live" is what changes the server it connects to... but how do I change it to connect to a specific IP address/port?
I tried replacing "ryzom_live" with my VM's IP address (also tried a IP/port combo) and restarted the client, and that just gave me an error about not being able to connect. I tried mapping some of the official URLs like "account.ryzom.com" and "app.ryzom.com" to my IP using the Hosts file in Windows, and got other errors.
Should I be doing things a different way? Any help would be greatly appreciated :) The documentation appears to be very outdated and a lot of links point to a "dev.ryzom.com" domain that is hidden behind a login page.
Thank you!
