Sigh ... seems like it should be way easier then that.

I would think that you would just be able to change setting in the configuration file for the server to point to LOCALHOST, but I cant seem it get it working properly.

Should be as simple as what I've already provided:

First off ... thank you again /bow

I KNOW I did that before, ROFL, but this time it seemed to work !

I am now able to see the sever locally / offline, however my next problem is that while I can see and connect to the sever, it wont display the character select screen.

After selecting the sever I just get a blank black screen that just sits there.

Sorry for being a bother, and thank you for your help.

I wanted to say thank you again, my problems appear to be related to my windows set up, I had to reinstall windows to get rid of some related problems and then this worked perfectly ! THANK YOU.

I did have a question relating to your design philosophy for this server.

Why do you have bots / mercs disabled/not installed by default? I'm just wondering because it would seem easier for those that wanted to use those features for solo play etc.

Those that didn't want to use them wouldn't have too, but those that were interested them would be able to?

I appreciate all your hard work and I wouldn't have this server to play on with out it.

Thank you again

It's all setup so you can in the future be able to 'plug' features into it, download bots binaries and setup a bots schema etc. This is a base, as long as the base works, its easy to extend other topical installations into it.

hmmm .. interesting.

Thank you again!

I may have to try and track down someone and see how they added in bots / mercs etc as I want this mainly for solo offline play and with my sons.

It would be nice to have the added support of mercs / bots to explore content that I wouldn't be able to do solo other wise.

Ok .. stupid question 1232312312,

Im sure this has been asked before, I did try and check honest, but - at this time can bot support be added to the existing server AFTER its been installed?

Reason im asking is i have next to now experience with sql / compiling souces / making my own server etc.

So id be looking for a pre-compiled option that would allow me to use bots with your wonderful setup.

Sorry posing so many questions, and im very very greatfull for all your hard work!
