Quick Start Guide

Client configuration

Get the Client >>> DOWNLOAD HERE <<<

Make sure to uncheck the run eve box before finishing the install, this may be difficult to see on some wine builds as the dialog is partially obscured.

Get a copy of the blue patcher >>> DOWNLOAD HERE <<< and follow the instructions in README.md.

Your client is now ready to run.

NOTE: Do NOT run the Client from the icon you get after installation. Change it to run the /bin/exefile.exe instead of the eve.exe or you will get the launcher and that will attempt to contact CCP and automatically update the client.

Server configuration (From source)

NOTE:

• %serverRoot% is where the server is installed.
• %devRoot% is where the development files are located.
• These may be the same location but that is not necessary

SERVER SETUP:

1. Create the directories %serverRoot%/etc/ and %serverRoot%/log/
2. Copy the %devRoot%/evemu_server/utils/devtools.raw file to %serverRoot%/etc/
3. Open a command prompt and go to the directory %devRoot%/evemu_server/sql/utils/
4. Run the script merge-ofic-updates.sh if your running Linux or merge-ofic-updates.bat on windows

MYSQL SETUP:

Get a copy of the crucible static data dump cru16-mysql5-v1.sql.bz2 and extract the file cru16-mysql5-v1.sql to %serverRoot%. Then open a mysql client and execute the following commands in this order: 

 create database evemu;
 use evemu;
 source %serverRoot%/cru16-mysql5-v1.sql;
 source %devRoot%/evemu_server/sql/evemu_dynamic-dump.sql;
 source %devRoot%/evemu_server/sql/evemu_static-dump.sql;
 source %devRoot%/evemu_server/sql/ofic-updates.sql;
 source %devRoot%/evemu_server/sql/prime_db.sql;
 source %devRoot%/evemu_server/sql/liveupdates.sql;
 source %devRoot%/evemu_server/sql/market_npc.sql;
 ALTER TABLE srvAccountApi AUTO_INCREMENT=1000000;
 ALTER TABLE srvAccount AUTO_INCREMENT=1;
 INSERT INTO srvAccount (accountID, accountName, role, password, online, banned)   
 VALUES(NULL, 'YOUR_ACCOUNT_NAME', 5003499186008621056, 'YOUR_PASSWORD', 0, 0);
 GRANT ALL ON evemu.* TO EVEMU_USER@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'EVEMU_PASSWORD';

In the last two lines replace YOUR_ACCOUNT_NAME with the account name you want to log into the game with, and YOUR_PASSWORD with the password you will use. Change EVEMU_USER to the username you want the server to log into you database with, and EVEMU_PASSWORD to the password the server should use.

SERVER CONFIGURATION FILE

Create the server config file %serverRoot%/etc/eve-server.xml. Make sure to set the proper database username and password.

FINAL STEP - SERVER COMPILATION

 sudo apt-get install build-essential g++ cmake git
 sudo apt-get install libtinyxml2.6.2-dbg libtinyxml2.6.2 libmysql
 sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev zlib1g-dbg
 sudo apt-get install libboost1.54
 sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev
