Step One
Download the Latest verson of Eclipse. This can be found on the main page of
www.touchofdeathproductions.com in the download section. Once you have downloaded the Latest Version of Eclipse you need to get that needed files. While you our still on the download page look for the Needed File's. Also Download Those.
Step Two
Eclipse and needed files our in what is called a ZIP File. Zip files our a way to compress files to make them smaller. To use Eclipse you need to go through a proccess called "Unzipping". To unzip a file you must follow these simple instructions.
Right Click on the zip file you have downloaded. ( Your file name may not be identical to the one shown in this screenshot )
When the menu comes up click on extract here. If you do not have Winrar. Your menu will look differant.
If you our using window's Xp. You can just double click on the file and when it open's in a window just Click on both the folder's inside and paste them outside of the zip file.
Now ignore the 2 folder's you have for now and repeat the proccess with the needed file's. Then double click the exe that was extraced from the needed files and step through the instalation until it is done. Now we move back to the Eclipse Zip file.
Step Three
Now you should have something that look's like this.
Open the server folder first and double click on server.exe. It will go through a loading screen and once it is fully loaded click the minamize bar at the top of the server. You will notice it is now a small icon in your start menu ( The server is still running )
Step Four
Now close your server folder and go into your client folder. Open the Eclipse.exe Program. Wait for it to finish loading. Once it is finished loading you should see the following screen.
Click on the new Button that you see and create a new account. If you get a message that says the server is offline you have not started your server correctly and must do step 3 Again. Once your new account is created click the login button then login. Create a new charector then log onto the game. Now that you our in the game you have to give your self administrator access. Close the game ( Not the server ). Now that the game is completely closed go on to Step 5.
Step Five
Go back into your server folder. Once inside your server folder click on the account's folder. Find the name of your account. If your account name was marsh it woud be called marsh.ini. Open that file then you will see something that looks like the following.
[GENERAL]
Login=yourlogin
Password=yourpassword
[CHAR1]
Name=
Class= 0
Sex= 0
Sprite= 0
Level= 0
Exp= 0
Access= 0[/list]
Etc, So see that access = 0? we have to change that to access = 4. So do that and then save the text file ( IF YOUR CLIENT IS NOT OFF THIS WILL NOT SAVE PROPERLY ). Now that you have saved. Go onto step 6
Step Six
Now go back into the client folder start Eclipse.exe wait till it is done loading then log onto the game. Then press F1 Ingame. If a menu pop's up you did everything successfully. if nothing comes up then you have to redo step 5. Congratulation's you have setup Eclipse.
Final Notes
Once you have set this all up you never have to do it again. If you got a runetime error saying 339 then you did not install the needed files correctly. If you got a differant error goto the main page located at
