Hi guys! I have been trying to start an OT serveral times now but never finished. I always get some problems that is to hard for me. But now I'll do my best to get this started!

This is what I have succeded this far:

Website.
Database setup.
Server setup.

But now I have found problems that only can be fixed if I compile sources and so on... Thats was not the easiest thing for me. I have never done it before. The problem I have right now is the "Using one of 100 manas" when I have more than 100. It can be fixed in "game.cpp" (source file).

I tried to follow this guid: http://otland.net/f479/compiling-windows-how-set-up-compiler-noob-friendly-tutorial-193878/
but it didnt work.

How do I compile? I downloaded the sources to TFS 0.3.6 named "0.3.6.r102". In it I got all data packs and more. Do I need to do something with it? I already have a server but not with all the sources. Should I copy/paste the files in my server path? Noobfriendly information needed. I also have "Stian's Repack Dev-Cpp v2" I followed the guide but there came up alot of errors.

Can someone help me? I really want this to work.

Sorry for my bad english... If you have time you can add me on skype!

Thanks!!


EDIT:

I tried again, I downloaded 0.3.6pl1.r102 sources. Followed the guide and get this error in the end:

cannot find -llua51
C:\Users\Marcus\Desktop\0.3.6pl1.r102\dev-cpp\Makefile.win [Build Error] [TheForgottenServer.exe] Error 1

Any ideas? (:

EDIT AGAIN:

I copied the lua51.dll from my server to: C:\Users\Marcus\Desktop\Stian's Repack Dev-Cpp v2\lib And then it find it.
But now there is a new error:

I cant help u how to fix that specific error BUT anytime you recompile there seems to be a bug (not always) but theres most of the time somthing it bugs out if you make it work with mild in game errors and you can patch them id suggest that
 
To be honest... I didnt understand a thing. Sorry! Anyone else that got any answers? :)
