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It was really outdated, but I after some trial and error I did manage to get a server up and running, inside a VirtualBox VM.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 Any help would be greatly appreciated :) The documentation appears to be very outdated and a lot of links point to a "dev.ryzom.com" domain that is hidden behind a login page.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!

First thing, running local shard does not give any access to ingame content for you. While code is public, content is not.

Yeah, that wiki seems to be old (still has libwww has not been used for ages now).

Try this https://github.com/nimetu/docky

docky is my example shard with "batteries included", ie you should be able to connect to it with live client.

Oh, cool!

Awesome, that worked perfectly!

I got it up and running tonight on my local machine. Thank you very much!

I see what you mean about the in-game content. The missions and dialogue are missing, but that doesn't bother me too much. We'll just be doing some roleplaying.

Cheers!
