9. If you followed along perfectly. You should have 1 Directory for your Pol Server with
all the basic Pol files.
10. Create a new folder in your Pol World of Dreams directory called -> MUL
11a. Enter the "scripts" directory within your Pol World of Dreams Server Directory
11b. Edit the file -> ecompile.cfg.example
11c. Make sure to update the directory information so that it is correct
11d. Save your ecompile.cfg file
Note: At this point you need a pol.cfg file
You can aquire this file from the file -> Distro097.zip
12 Copy the ultima client files into your Pol World of Dreams Server directory -> MUL
map0.mul
multi.idx
multi.mul
staidx0.mul
statics0.mul
tiledata.mul
Note:
13. If you want the other map areas copy these files to your Pol World of Dreams Server Directory -> MUL
map2.mul, map3.mul, map4.mul
staidx2.mul, staidx3.mul, staidx4.mul
statics2.mul, statics3.mul, statics4.mul
End Note
Compile your MUL files. Im not going over this again but you will use these files to do it depending
on the operating system.
14. For Windows run -> StartHere.bat
For Linux run -> StartHere.Sh
You can obtain the needed files for these with the file ->Distro097.zip
See the old instruction set 097 version for how to compile muls.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
After this step your muls should be all ready to go!
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Now lets install the converted World of Dreams Pol 098 Script Set!!!!
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
*********************************************************************************************************
Important! After completing the conversion of your MUL files you will have a text file -> config
Rename that file to something else so you dont have problems when you copy over the config directory
*********************************************************************************************************
15. Download -> wod98scripts.zip
16. Extract the files in a temporary directory of your choosing
17. In the temporary directory move through the directory structure until you can select the following
directories:
config
data
docs
log
pkg
regions
scripts
20. Select these directories and copy/paste these directories to your main Pol 098 World of Dreams directory
Important: Make sure to overwrite all files!
21. Now the fun part!
22. Enter into the "scripts" directory of your main Pol World of Dreams server.
23. run ecompile
24. Note: If it does not compile all the scripts double check your ecompile.cfg -the directory structure
must be correct for it to work-
25. If all went correct, you should have all your scripts built! Yea!
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
26. Enter into the "config" directory in the main Pol World of Dreams server directory
27. edit "servers.cfg"
28. add your server information
29. Save the file
30. Run Pol!
31. Now your set! Time to tweak it to whatever settings u desire! Have fun!
Happy Gaming!
