now how to get these running (verry basic guide):
- first you install ms sql with mixed authentication mode so you have a login/pass for it
- you need to enter the login/pass in the dbsrc.ini and the !setup.txt file
- you create 2 databases in ms sql (using enterprise manager)
- you recover my mir2_chardb and mir2_datadb files into these 2 db's, chardb is used by dbserver and datadb by m2server so you link each of these in the apropriate(hope i spelled this right) setup/ini file
- you'll prob have to edit some ip's like with other mir servers
- you might get errors about missing npc's/maps just delete the related npc's/maps in the ms sql db tables
- you'll have to read updates.doc to get a list of all the edits you have to do to the database, since i dont update my database every release
- you cant combine several different release versions gotta have all server + client exes from same release
hope ths pretty much helps (there are probably better guides outthere but i cant link to other forums
And where would i be able to download ms sql from as ive searched on google and i have no idea wich one to use :S can someone get a link please ?

you can either use sql 2005 which has a slightly harder interface or sql 2000
sql 2005: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/sql/register/default.aspx
sql 2000: not sure where
sql 2005: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/sql/register/default.aspx
sql 2000: not sure where
just search for sqleval.exe (it's a 120 day evaluation version of ms sql 2k)
as for removing sql from m2server: no i wont everyone else uses it so would be stupid to change it besides i like it

Ok i checked some forums and i found that solution:
Setting up the files (offline):
1. download the server files from here http://users.telenet.be/thedeath/Mir2/LOMCNM2.rar
2. run the rar file and extract the files to C:/mirserver
3. got to your legend of mir folder
c:/program flies/wemade/legend of mir
right click on the map folder and click copy.
Go to your m2server folder
c:/mirserver/m2server
and paste the map folder into here
4. Check the following files to make sure they have the correct IP (127.0.0.1), the correct directories (C:/mirserver/…), and the correct server name (test):
/DBServer/!addrtable.txtl
/DBServer/!serverinfo.txtl
l /DBServer/dbsrc.ini
/LoginGate/Config.inil
l /LoginSrv/!addrtable.txt
/LoginSrv/!serveraddr.txtl
l /LoginSrv/!UserLimit.txt
/LoginSrv/Logsrv.inil
l /LogServer/LogData.ini
/M2Server/!runaddr.txtl
l /M2Server/!servertable.txt
/M2Server/!Setup.txtl
l /RunGate/Config.ini
/SelGate/Config.inil
5. Download SQL Server 2000 - XXXX
6. Install SQL using Authentication mode, and set a password mir23
7. Once your SQL Server is running open Enterprise Manager and go into your SQL databases, there should already be ‘master’, ‘model’, ‘msdb’, ‘Northwind’, ‘pubs’, ‘tempdb’.
8. Right click any where in this window and then click new database.
9.In the box called name, type "mir23" then click ok.
10. Right click somewhere in the Database window, highlight over ‘All Tasks’ and click ‘Restore Database’.
11. Click the option tab, and then tick all 3 boxes, once you done that click back on the general tab.
12. Check the box that says restore as database, click on the arrow and select mir23.
13. The next line down, where it say restore, click "From Device’ and click the button saying ‘Select Devices’ then ‘Add’ button.
14. On the File Name box click the button saying ‘…’ and select lom2_chardb.bak from \DBServer. Then press OK until the database is restore.
15. Too add your self as a GM, right click on the table admin, then select , open table> return all rows.
16. Now go back to your sever folder and open
DBServer/dbsrc.ini
a few lines down you will see SQL type.
The line under that you need to change so it looks like this.
SQLType=mssql
SQLHost=localhost
SQLPort=3306
SQLDatabase=mir2
SQLUsername=sa
SQLPassword=<the password you entered when you setup mssql>
You now need to do the same in
DBServer/!Setup.txt
so it look like this
[SQL]
UseSQL=True
SQLHost=127.0.0.1
SQLUsername=sa
SQLPassword=<the password you entered when you setup mssql>
SQLDatabase=mir2
SQLType=mssql
17. you can now close MSSQL. The go back to ur server folder and run the following exe's. It don’t matter in which order you run them.
m2server/m2sever.exe (run this 1st as it takes the longest to load.
DBserver/dbserver.exe
gamegate/gamegate.exe
logingate/logingate.exe
loginsv/loginsrv.exe
logserver/LogDataServer.exe
selgate.exe
If you get no error in any of these your server is running ok.
16. Go back to your server file folder, then your m2server folder, copy the mir2.exe and paste it in to your legend of mir folder.
18. open your legend of mir folder and then open
mir.ini
change the 3 ip addresses in here to 127.0.0.1 then save this file as
mir2.ini
19. run the mir2.exe and you will be connected to your server.
20. if thats all working and your happy, try downloading the updates from : XXXXX
make sure you read the update document before doing any thing.
21. any problems with the files before the update, feel free to post here
In this solution i need to create only 1DB
mir23 ---> lom2_chardb.bak
in ur solution is one more DataDB
Why?
When i make everything like this and when i run server all gates are connected but i saw in client "connection closed" when i use other client mir2.exe and mir2.ini (i change all ips to my) i cant create account i saw nothing (nothing happened). Maybe i cant create account becasue i dont have second database in SQL (DataDB)???? Can u help me?

Run Gate Ips are correctly
But maybe u can post me here how i must configure SQL to this files?
Now i have that:
In SQL:
Databases:
all +
lom2_chardb (i have lom2_chardb.bak in DBserver)
lom2_datadb (i have lom2_datadb.bak in DBserver and data.mdb in M2server folder)
But now where in inis i must put lom2_chardb and where lom2_datadb?
I thing that my client is correctly because when i use ip of mir revenge server (server is running correctly)

chances are you didnt setup the dbserver correctly so it's not connecting to ms sql or something like that
Members want to play the files not wait months years because of red tape, get over it and move on the rest of us have, TD has done some good work here for the benefit of the members and he has never denied the contribution others made previously to them.

So I assume levelme is going to be releasing the source to all their dm2 stuff then ?

therefore both projects stand on the same footing, according to the rules. therefore neither project is now in the wrong according to the current rules
(excluding the svn)
but this is TD's release post so stop talking about everything else
