vb.org Archive - View Single Post - Integration with vBulletin - Player vs Player Gaming Network (PvPGN) Integration

Sebijk · #7 10-21-2008, 08:02 AM

The Documentation at PvPGN Website is not really useful, so I write my litte documentation:

Some Linux Distributions have PvPGN as a DEB or RPM Packet included. But this versions is not recommened, because many Packets are outdated and make some problems with new Clientversions.

You need: MySQL-Header, Dev-Files, cmake, make and the required compilation tools

Get the newest version at SVN:

http://developer.berlios.de/svn/?group_id=2291

or

Code:

svn checkout svn://svn.berlios.de/pvpgn/trunk

After checkout go to the directory trunk and exec following commands.

Code:

cmake  -D WITH_MYSQL=true pvpgn
make
make install

PvPGN is compiling and installing in /usr/local.

After this, download the Support files:

http://prdownload.berlios.de/pvpgn/p...ort-1.2.tar.gz and unpack this at /usr/local/var/files.

At /usr/local/etc/bnetd.conf:

Search

Code:

storage_path = "file:mode=plain;dir= ...

and comment out this line or delete it.

Add this following text on a new line:

Code:

storage_path = "sql:mode=mysql;host=localhost;name=dein_vb_db;user=your_vb_db_user;pass=your_vb_db_password;default=0;prefix=pvpgn_"

Next search:

Code:

new_accounts = true

Change this in (because you will use the PvPGN Integration for vBulletin):

Code:

new_accounts = false

Done.

You can start PvPGN with

Code:

/usr/local/sbin/bnetd

or if you start PvPGN in Debug mode

Code:

/usr/local/sbin/bnetd -D

Ports, that must allow at the Server Firewall:
6112, 6200. 4807 (if you have Westwood Support enabled) und 6667 (if you have IRC Support enabled).

Battle.net Clients:

Add Server to the Client:

Registration Editor (regedit):

Goto HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Battle.net\Configuratio n.
Add to "Battle.net gateways" this lines:

Code:

yourserver.tld
-1
Name of your PvPGN Server

Warcraft III (and The Frozen Throne):

Battle.net gateways is located at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Blizzard Entertainment\Warcraft III.

For Warcraft III is the PvPGN Loader required, to use a PvPGN Server.

PvPGN Loader for Warcraft III Version 1.22: Attachment 88380 (Unpack this to your Warcraft III Directory)

Use the Tutorial with you own risk!

Here a screenshot from my PvPGN Server:
