Distro only with the necessary

Good night guys!

I know there is a classic and a modern distro, on the downloads page!
but as I'm starting now, I find it more complicated to learn using a distro already with several systems!

for learning end in my opinion it is much better to start from 0!
With as little as possible!
using classic and modern distros just as an example to create my systems!

And after a few attempts I was able to mount a distro with the least possible!

I'll detail just what it takes to make PoL run!

I needed to create a vitals system
and create some cfg
uoclient.cfg
attributes.cfg
cmds.cfg
combat.cfg
itemdesc.cfg -> required only 6 items! INTRINSIC WRESTLING WEAPON, Intrinsic Shield Armour, SecureTradeContainer, Backpack, Corpse e WornItemsContainer
repsys.cfg
servers.cfg
servspecopt.cfg
startloc.cfg
watch.cfg

ready! this is the least possible that a distro must have to start PoL

these steps below are necessary and you have to be able to know how to make those next steps!
because these next steps comes down to compiling the map, and the scripts!
You should be able to do that!
If you do not know, use the forum to learn!

after extracting the distro in your core!
Be sure to generate the map, multis.cfg, tiles.cfg, and landtiles.cfg
Then create and configure ecompile.cfg, then compile vitals.src!

after you have done all the above steps, just run the PoL, and get into the game!
ip local
porta 5003

Thank you for your contribution. I wish I had known you wanted a minimal set of scripts to just log-in because I could have provided it for you but this did provide you a learning experience. :)

I thought about getting the classic distro!
But my intention is to learn the functions / syntax of the PoL, and this classic / modern distro already comes with all systems ready.
I want to learn the functions / syntax of PoL just by doing these basic things.
Example: login system. create an .info command with gump etc etc

but I came across a problem here!
If I can not solve it, I'll open a topic asking for help!

thank you!

I have a set of minimal scripts that will let you log in and walk around. That is all you can do with what I have. :P There are no AI or combat or any other scripts. If you want them, let me know.

but I already managed to make a distro with the minimum necessary!
I do not see the need for you to send me another distro with the same characteristics!

more would be good if you share his .. the more the better! :)
other people may need it!

again, thanks for the intention! :)

zandor70, I assume you want a copy of POL Basic as I described it.
I have uploaded it here for your enjoyment. :)
Understand all you can do is log-in and walk around.
