hi i have a gracia final server running for 6 mounts, and now i'm updating it to freya in a new server machine... but i have some questions.

1. i have two server which is old but good enough (intel i3, 4gb ram, 10000rpm etc.), and other one is really good (xeon, 32gb ram, 15000rpm etc) and operation systems are centos... i want one server which is running in two pc. What is best configuration for me... and which linux? is centos good for l2j?

2. I decide to run gameserver and login server in old pc and sql in new pc... is it best way for performance or what should i do?

3. I heard something about mana potions, is it true there isn't any mana potion in retail? In low rate server is it bad to enable mana potion? or what should be in xml <set name="power" val="100" />? 500,100,250?


thanks for answers!

2) you could also run the login on weak pc and gs on the good one.
3) the icon for mana potion is gone, when you use the mana drug (mana heal ofer time), there will be no icon.
And also, there will be no name ("You use ." <- no item name). But that's it.
Power depends on skillType:
MANAHEAL - full value, power=100 restores 100mp instantly
MANAHEAL_PERCENT - % of total character's mp, dynamic
MPHOT restoration is val="1.5" in effect. It's the value for each time.

thanks jurchiks, i know xml codes in l2j... but i want to know if i disable mana potion what will happen?

for example when i enable it the balance between classes changed and i added m.def to fighters... if i disable mana potion is it good for balanced server

you can add delay on mana potions and reduce the negatives about it.

mana potions can't be obtained by default. it's fine without them.

To run login only on that server its useless , for sql its not enough for gs its not enough...
Now depends ... number of players...

i don't know in my server there are 50~100 online players with no lag but i want to know is there a better way to build

what about linux, centos, fedora? what is the best for l2jserver?

Best Linux for l2j from my experiences is debian or Ubuntu (10.10) with modified bash scripts.
I can drag about 1,5k players with minimal HW load and I'm doing server restarts once per 7 days (Emulator) and machine every 3 months.

If you keep your emulator stable with good custom scripts and some optimalization, you really do not need to restart it every day.

More difficult part of this is MySQL server optimalization, It's very hard to reach best configuration for you. There are lots of guides, but i think it's all about experimenting.

from my exp. only Ubuntu 10.10. I can say ONLY good things about this system cuz there are no ---

Yea I like it more than debian, but this 2 systems meets all requirements for very good performance of l2j.

ok, i will try ubuntu...thanks
