Priston Tale EU Source Code

Updated on: 2026-03-15

This repository contains the client and server source code for a Priston Tale base used in projects such as Fortress PT, Regnum PT, PristonTale EU, and Epic Tale.

The repository now also includes local documentation for:

• analyzing the Files/ runtime pack
• restoring the database and starting a local environment
• finding GM/Admin commands
• understanding the helper scripts without needing to read the source first
• creating test accounts and characters
• patching the client runtime to localhost
• looking up item codes, numeric item IDs, map IDs, and monster IDs

Repository layout

• game/: client source code
• Server/: login server and game server source code
• shared/: shared structures and types
• docs/: documentation split into guides, analysis, reference, studies, and troubleshooting
• scripts/: SQL helpers, start/stop scripts, and lookup utilities
• Files/: local runtime pack with client, server binaries, and database backups

Important note about Files/

Files/ is treated as a local runtime pack.

• it is large and normally should not be committed to Git
• it is the runtime used for local testing
• if the source and the runtime binaries disagree, document the mismatch clearly

Quick start

If you want to boot the local environment quickly:

1. read server-start-guide.md
2. start SQL with .\scripts\start-pt-docker-sql.ps1
3. restore the databases with .\scripts\restore-pt-docker-dbs.ps1
4. patch the client if needed with .\scripts\patch-pt-client-localhost.ps1
5. apply local runtime fixes with .\scripts\fix-pt-local-runtime.ps1
6. start the servers with .\scripts\start-pt-server.ps1
7. open Files/Game/Game.exe

Documented local test accounts:

• admin / admin
• dedezin / dedezin123

• docs/README.md: documentation index
• server-start-guide.md: direct guide for starting, monitoring, and stopping the server
• setup-run-test-guide.md: full local setup and test guide
• gm-handbook.md: practical in-game GM/Admin handbook
• account-and-character-management.md: account creation, GM levels, character ownership, and DB edits
