Hercules on Amazon EC2 (Windows Server 2012) Instance Video https://vimeo.com/68667751 Benefits Main benefits of using Amazon’s Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) are: Cost You can start with a micro instance which has 750 hours per month of Linux and Windows instance use, along with 613 MB of RAM, 32 bit or 63 bit systems. Which is free of charge with certain operating systems, including Windows Server 2012 Base. This is called the Free Tier. Beyond the free tier you start $0.060 USD cents per hour for a Small Linux instance, which is $1.44 USD per day, or $0.091 USD cents per hour for a Small Windows instance, which is $2.18 USD per day. Not bad at all. Lots of VPS hosts charge this and more already. Just pay as you go. Small instances support 32/64 bits, 1 core, 1 ECU, 1.7 GiB, 1x160 GB Source: http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/pricing/ Source: http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/ Scalability Once your server needs more RAM and CPU power than the Free Tier can offer, you can just 1) take a Snapshot of your current instance, 2) Detach your Elastic IP from your old instance, 3) Create a new, more powerful instance from the Snapshot, 4) Attach your Elastic IP to your new instance, and BAM, you’ve got the exact same Hercules server on better hardware. All this in a few minutes. You have complete control. Reliability Amazon’s Elastic Compute Cloud is exactly that. A reliable, elastic computing cloud. All your virtual machines are hosted on the most stable clusters that use the most speedy network connections available. You’ll definitely get peace of mind that you’ll server won’t just stop working one day because of unreliable hardware, software or bad maintenance. Important Creating and using an Elastic IP is FREE of cost. But using additional Elastic IP’s cost you $0.005 USD cents per hour. Which is $.12 USD cents per day. http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/pricing/#elastic-ip Inbound and Outbound Bandwidth per GB is free. http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/pricing/#DataTransfer Snapshots are pretty cheap too. Cost depends on country. You can get an idea of how much your new instance will cost with the calculator http://calculator.s3.amazonaws.com/calc5.html Note: Remember, Micro instances are FREE with certain Operating Systems. Thanks to Hercules Team for, well, Hercules Judas for Skype session and Full Install / Small Client post

@unknown: I don't have any experience in setting things up in a Linux instance. Sorry.

@unknown: Did you create a Windows Server instance in EC2? If so, all you need to do is log in with Remote Desktop to your Windows Server, open browser, download MySQL, configure and install.

There are several things I want to modify: Attributes: Aspd, Vit, Strength, etc. Max Base / Job Level Max HP Max Cart Weight How and where can I modify these? I tried client.conf and player.conf inside /conf folder. Also tried /src/battle.h, recompiled but still the same. Not sure if this is the right section to ask because I'm not sure if source needs to be modified. Please point out if this is not the right section.

Double checked IP. You can ping IP and port 6900. Opened and listening. But still no connection. At last. I've got the Hercules server up and running. Able to connect and play no! Will make a guide for anyone who would like to set up a Hercules server on Amazon EC2.

UPDATE: I was finally able to mount a Hercules server on Amazon EC2. Up and running. Playing as we speak. Will make a detailed guide. Moderators: Please close topic Hi, my name’s Yushell, I’m 25 years old, and I’m a Web Developer in a Mexican digital agency. I specialize in .NET Development. I’ve been a fan of Ragnarok Online since I was 15 years old. Occasionally setting up a private server, at first using Aegis, then eAthena. And now I’d like to set up a renewal server using Hercules. My goal is to set it up on an Amazon EC2 instance I have with Windows Server 2012. And I’ve followed every guide there is, line by line, but I haven’t been able to connect from the outside. I’ve opened up ports, made inbound rules for TCP and UDP, and I’ve even created rules for each port in Amazon’s Console, under Security Groups. But it’s been two weeks of trying and still can’t connect. That’s why I decided to open this thread. Asking for help from anyone who’s willing to lend a hand. I configured Hercules on the server, MySQL included. Installed the full installer and Small Client Package mentioned my Judas in http://herc.ws/b...client-package/ I extracted Hercules.grf, changed the IP in clientinfo.xml to the public IP of my instance, but still no connection. Note: I’d like to contribute to Hercules in any way I can. And if I’m able to mount the server on my Amazon EC2 instance, I’ll make a guide for anyone that’d like to do the same.

Buenos días / tardes compañeros. Me presento. Mi nombre es Yushell, tengo 25 años y soy Desarrollador Web en una agencia digital Mexicana. Me especializo en Desarrollo .NET. Y desde que tenía 15 años soy fanático de Ragnarok Online, y en un par de ocasiones he puesto private servers, de principio con Aegis y después con eAthena. Y ahora quisiera poner uno con Renewal y me topé con Hercules. Mi meta es montarlo en una instancia EC2 que cree en Amazon con Windows Server 2012. Y he seguido las guías al pie de la letra, pero no logro conectarme desde el exterior. Abro puertos en el firewall, agrego los puertos en la consola de Amazon, etc. Y me parece increíble, pero simplemente no he podido después de 2 semanas de estarlo intentando. Y eso por eso que les escribo. Quisiera saber si alguien está dispuesto a echarme la mano. Desde luego si necesita algún tipo de retribución, podríamos ponernos de acuerdo. Configure Hercules en la nube e instale el full installer y el Small CLient Package que menciono judas en este post http://herc.ws/board/topic/38-latest-kro-installation-small-client-package/ Extraje el Hercules.grf, cambie la IP del clientinfo.xml al IP público de mi server, pero como mencione anteriormente, nunca conecta. Nota: Desde luego si logro montar el server en Amazon EC2, con gusto hago una guía para quien después quisiera intentarlo.
