First attempt at a POL shard.

Post by Nozgo »

Using these files on Windows 10
polserver100-WINDOWS-2018-08-01-bin
polserver-ClassicDistro-425977a
Pol configurator

Followed all steps in documentation, only changed a few things in the confiurator.
1.) Only checked "build Felucca, trammel, Ilshenar, and Malas."
2.)Choose you UO expansion I picked "Third Dawn"
3.)Enabled speed hack prevention

Fired it up, it starts to load and then I get the following error -

Code: Select all

You must compile your scripts first

I also I recommend downloading the POL Configurator to make configuring POL easier. That link is to the installer. It does not make any Windows registry entries. Basically it just installs the Configurator to the directory of you choose. I have received a couple of reports that some third party antivirus software does not like the installer. So if your AV software complains about the installer or you just prefer a ZIP file you can download a ZIP file of the POL Configurator and just extract that to the directory of your choice.

Run the Configurator. You will have a box open up with information. Read the info and click OK. Then the instruction page will be displayed on the basic use of the Configurator. I believe every text box, check box, and button has a tool tip which is displayed by hovering your mouse over the item to aid you in configuring POL. I have tried to make it as user friendly as is possible. POL has a lot of options and settings. You can just save the default settings and it should be fine.

If you have not edited servers.cfg with your IP and port info then open servers.cfg in the /pol/config directory and edit it according to your needs to allow the client to connect. I recommend using a third party program such as Razor that strips the client encryption from the client when logging in. If you do not use a program such as Razor you will need to edit uoclient.cfg in /pol/pkg/systems/accounts/config and look for

Code: Select all

Listener None
{
Port 2593
Encryption None
AOSResistances 0
}

where it has "Encryption" replace "None" with your full client version number, including the decimal points.

If you have ANY questions or issues feel free to PM me.

The Configurator will make compiling the whole shard easier as well as building the facets (in POL scripts they are called realms).
