Starting server from scratch

[kvnwpts]

Hi everyone.

So basically I've downloaded TFS 0.3.6 (8.6) and imported a totally unedited Evoloution map.
I also have Znote AAC and I have redesigned the website so it looks good.

Now what I have to do is to customize my server to make it get as many players as I can (Thats what my goal is ofc). My question is: What should I start out with?

Should I start out by making new items, new spells, new monsters and when that's done start mapping?
I'm not gonna map everything myself, so I'm gonna import different hunting/quest spots from maps.
Is it hard to import a single quest from another Data Pack into my sever?

So the main question is, where should I start with this and how should I end?

Thanks.

Start the server and read out of the console [Error] : xisfhuif bla bla

and then you should think about what you wanna do make a plan about your OT (What scripts you wanna add) (events) add them then make the map then make Donation items then customize monsters if u wanna

Edit: You can join my OT Team is also 8.6 based on 0.3.6 TFS

Ah, then I know. ) There are currently no errors in the console.

Yeah, I've already started writing up some things. What do you mean by events? Basically I just came back from OT, it was like 4 years I played.

Give me the ip I can check it out
