Making Your First RSPS

Ok, obviously the title may be a little misleading, however I have a serious question that (I am assuming) is probably frequently asked in a knowledge base like this.

My question you ask?: "How do I make my frst RSPS?"

I know what I need to do mostly from the tutorials I have read.

-Download 7-Zip (Can't stand winzip)

-Port Forwarded (I think this has been done because edited my routers settings however I can't be sure because I can't get what I (had) working)

-Found a source (Well I would really rather not take someones work, so how could I go about doing this myself?)

-Downloaded No-IP (Yes I did, and registered my server ^.^)

Anyways I get the logistics of it. I have some knowledge in Java, I have done some Visual Basic, and have done (small) amounts of C++, so I get the basic structure of programming and could pick up more Java relatively fast (I think).

But could someone please tell me EVERYTHING else i need to do besides getting people to connect to my server by port forwarding, for example:

-How do I edit my servers code to make it so people can connect?

-How do I add customs? (I know how to do 3D rendering, I am a professional graphic designer)

-Where does any memory from the server get stored on my hard drive?

-How can I completely delete accounts off my database?

-How do I compile/decompile my server?

-How do I edit my server AFTER people are already connected?

-How much memory is needed for my server as a whole? (roughly)

On another note: I have a 1.5 terabyte external hard drive so memory here isn't an issue but I would like to know how much would be stored on my drive regardless

-Can spammers/hackers send viruses over my servers connection?
a. What dangers come with running a server?

I know it's a HEAPLOAD of questions but please! If you can answer these I will be forever grateful to you, and of course if I do get it up and running I can give you some items or something on my server if you decide to join (unless you don't accept bribes -.^)

-How do I edit my servers code to make it so people can connect?
Let the client connect to your no-ip adress, and let the no-ip run on the pc where your server is online.

-How do I add customs? (I know how to do 3D rendering, I am a professional graphic designer)
make models (metaseq/blender or something like tht), animate them if needed (use datmaker), then make ints for them, add them in class8.java (idk renamed name).

-Where does any memory from the server get stored on my hard drive?
idk. your folder?

-How can I completely delete accounts off my database?
there should be a folder "characters" in your server files, all characters that login will be stored here, you can change account details here too.

-How do I compile/decompile my server?
use the standard java compiler thingy.

-How do I edit my server AFTER people are already connected?
open .java files, when you've updated, compile and restart to make them have effect.

-How much memory is needed for my server as a whole? (roughly)
idk.

On another note: I have a 1.5 terabyte external hard drive so memory here isn't an issue but I would like to know how much would be stored on my drive regardless
your server is a couple MB's, you got enough space.

-Can spammers/hackers send viruses over my servers connection?
a. What dangers come with running a server?
if ppl are pro, they can try to enter your pc or DDoS your IP, don't be scared, doesn't happen that much.

Set up a No-Ip, then try to login to your server using that IP.

You will want something blank (Yes, you're taking someones work, but you're also doing it yourself) - Rune-Source, WhiteScape or WinterLove V2 (V3 is a bit clogged). POSSIBLY Hyperion, if you feel you're up to it.

Your server will already be set up to connect - just make sure people have a client that connects(or can connect) to your IP.

There are tutorials in the RS2Client section.

Just curious why you'd ask this.

If you're not using MySQL - usually found in a CFG, Config or Data folder (depending if your servers packaged)

Eclipse IDE or NetBeans IDE.

Eclipse and I think, NetBeans can be updated whilst people are connected. Just click "Debug" in Eclipse.

Not very much should be required. Though Hyperion's a memory whore.

Not that I've ever witnessed.

If you're stupid and host a webclient on your WebServer, you can be sued(more times than not, threatened) by Jagex.
