Tip
titleSimple Method

Add additional lines to your client.cfg located in the ryzom client folder.

You do not have to add all the below lines just the ones you want to change.

For example if you want your client to connect to myurl.ryzomcore.org you would add that line as a StartupHost

StartupHost = "shardmyurl.ryzomcore.org:40916";
CreateAccountURL = "http://shard.ryzomcore.org/ams/?page=register";
EditAccountURL = "http://shard.ryzomcore.org/ams/?page=settings";
ConditionsTermsURL = "http://www.gnu.org/licenses/agpl-3.0.html";
ForgetPwdURL = "http://shard.ryzomcore.org/ams/?page=forgot_password";
LoginSupportURL = "https://plus.google.com/u/0/communities/103798956862568269036";

 

Advantages of this method:

  • Simple to configure
  • Doesn't require recompiling the client to make edits

Disadvantages of this method:

  • A malicious application can change your settings in a plain text file to anything they want potentially stealing passwords etc
  • You are not able to have users remove the client.cfg if they input bad settings without them connecting to the wrong server but the client will still run potentially causing confusion
Note
titleChanging Defaults Method
