Topic: Server help
Apparently I'm a tard and even after following guides to setting up a diablo 2 vanilla server I still can not get it squared away. Looking to pay someone in order to help set it up.

Write more details, pvpgn version, os, gs version. What have you done already.

certainly,
OS - windows 10
pvpgn -> pvpgn-master-1.99.7.2.1-PRO-9e7c471 plain & mysql (tried using one and then the other with same results wasn't sure if I had just goof'd switching in storage line when manually changing it from plain to mysql) also ran this in compatibility mode like suggested
d2gs -> 1.13c build 3
so ive taken all the game files needed, pvpgn, and d2gs placed them into the same dir and edited the files accordingly to the
current issue is when i boot pvpgn.exe up it gives this fatal error ->
Nov 18 09:52:27 [fatal] pvpgn::bnetd::support_check_files: necessary file "files/matchmaking-war3-default.dat" missing
Nov 18 09:52:27 [error] pre_server_startup: some needed files are missing
Nov 18 09:52:27 [error] pre_server_startup: please make sure you installed the supportfiles in files
i have literally gone step by step with the guide for both pvpgn and d2gs and still nothing. I have server hosting experience for other games off steam and even a wow private server but pvpgn is nut punching me >:C
100% willing to use some sort of screensharing so i can walk you thought what i have done from start to finish and hopefully you can tell me i tarded on this spot or that. A few years ago I got a pvpgn semi up had everything running other then the issue with failed to make games on a closed realm, but even now I can not get that far. This was also before using an xfinity gateway, previously my interalip was 192.168.x.x now it is a 10.0.x.x i cant see why or how that would make a difference but aside from pvpgn updating this is literally the only changes that i can think of from when it semi worked to 100% not working.
If you haven't gotten this resolved as of yet. Shoot me a PM and I'll see what I can do. I just did a fresh d2 vanilla setup myself.
EDIT: I couldn't find that file in my server files either. Try modifying bnetd.conf and search for allowed_clients and restrict all but d2/lod. Should be
allowed_clients = d2dv,d2xp
Should negate any other clients.
