[edit]Setting Up the Server
[edit]Obtaining the Files
The first step to setting up your samp server is to download the Windows Server files from the SA-MP downloads page you'll find the current version of the Windows Server files under the Windows Server header - click one of the download links to begin downloading, make sure to put the file somewhere where you can remember it easily.
[edit]Configuring your Server
Once the files are downloaded, extract (using program that can extract .rar files) the files (there's no need to have them in a certain folder, as the server doesn't need to see whether you have GTA:SA and SA-MP installed to run itself). Now, proceed to editing your server.cfg file.
Find server.cfg in the root folder for your server files and open it in Notepad or other text editor. This file should appear to you as readible English. This file is for the configuration of your server, here you can specify if lanmode is on or off, the max players, the server port, host name, game modes, filterscripts*, weburl and your rcon password.
[edit]Executing the Server
Once you have configured your server you can run it. To run it you can simply just click samp-server.exe and your server will be running.
