The Forgotten Server Wiki

Tutorial: Guide to setting up and maintaining an Open Tibia server

• Running your first OT Server (Windows)
• Running your first ubuntu linux OT
• General purpose guide for the Lua scripting language

Compiling: Compile the source code into an executable file to run the server

• Arch Linux
• CentOS
• Debian GNU/Linux
• Fedora
• FreeBSD
• Gentoo
• Mac OS X
• Ubuntu
• Windows (with vcpkg)
• Windows (with TFS SDK - until 2018-06-16 / 335e373)

If your server crashes, you might want to compile debug binaries to retain symbols and figure out what happens behind a segmentation fault.

Scripting: The scripting interface in TFS is supported by the Lua language where you can customize the server with scripts.

• actions
• chat channels
• creature scripts
• global events
• monster
• movements
• NPC
• raids
• talk actions
• weapons
  The scripting system is also supercharged with our Revscriptsys system. Which is like a mod file where you can use the above interfaces without registering the files through XML. You can also bundle multiple interfaces together into one file.

Changelogs:

• 1.4
• 1.3
• 1.2
• 1.1
• 1.0
