============================== IF. Frequently Asked Questions ==============================
Q. Wasn't this guide about International Gunz? A. Yes, the previous version of this guide was about iGunz. Since the collapse of iGunz however, everyone migrated to Ijji's version. I have since changed my guide to reflect this. There is no use in having a guide to International Gunz, which is essentially abandonware. After being in beta since '05, it's quite obvious that MAIET has no intention of making International a full-fledged final release. As of this being written, the only people who are playing International are people who have been IP blocked from Ijji's version. Regardless of whether this guide is for International or Ijji, all the same rules apply, however.
Q. There are parts missing to this guide that were in the previous version, what happened to them? A. I've removed certain parts, like the story section. While I originally included it for the sake of completion of the backstory, MAIET has admitted that the story provided has nothing to do with the game itself and will most likely never be expanded upon.
Q. Why do you take so damned long to update your FAQ? A. Because I'd rather be playing Gunz than writing about Gunz. As much as I love Gunz, writing a large, all-encompassing, elaborate FAQ is not quite an easy thing to do, especially in a game that tends to be as fast-paced and organic as Gunz.
Q. At what level do I stop getting new items? A. You stop getting clothing at lvl 30, and new weapons at lvl 50.
Q. How come I'm losing experience when I die? A. When you suicide from either falling into a pit, or typing /suicide, you'll lose a certain chunk of points from your experience. If you happen to be killed by someone who is significantly lower in levels, you will also lose experience when you die. If someone knocks you into a pit however, you usually won't lose exp, but it's not unheard of to occasionally lose experience. If you play in training mode, no exp will be lost or gained, so you can die all you want.
Q. HAO DO SPINNY THIGN W/ SWORD? A. Do not ever ask me a question like that.
Q. I saw this person doing a thing with their sword or gun, etc? A. Check the techniques section.
Q. You forgot to add so-and-so glitch. A. There are and have been quite a few glitches in the Gunz community that I personally feel shouldn't become "public" knowledge, or at least readily available.
Q. What keyboard/mouse combination do you recommend for Gunz? A. Most people use whatever keyboard/mice that initially came with their computer. I own a Logitech G15 keyboard and a Razer Copperhead mouse.
Q. My ping from others is always 999/ I can talk with others, but I cannot see their movements/ I keep getting agent errors! A. The original source of this Q/A was the now-defunct International Gunz forums.

If you cannot communicate with another player, his ping will display as 999 (use TAB to see the status). If you see this problem but you are able to interact with other players, then your network is fine. But if you cannot see other players' movements, it means that there is a problem with interacting with other players. Many people call this situation "Ping 999 problem". Original GunZ supports players under NAT/Firewall/IP Sharing Router network, but unfortunately it is not the case for International Edition, because doing so requires high-end hosting servers. Currently we plan to implement the support by official release date. Until then the users of NAT or Firewall may have problem with playing GunZ properly. If you're behind Firewall, please contact with your network administrator or ISP to resolve this problem.
If you're using IP sharing router, however, there is a way to resolve the situation. GunZ supports "Port Forwarding", and you can set the feature with your IP sharing router. Most IP sharing router support "Port Forwarding" (To learn how to set up Port Forwarding, please refer your router manual). After making changes, press "option" in game and check network configuration. Enter port number from the router into the port number option box. (This tip may come in handy in improving network performance even after the support for NAT/Firewall/IP Sharing Router becomes available.)

* Check to see if you have a firewall enabled, this maybe the default windows XP firewall or an external item like a router, if so check to see if this program or hardware allows the same port as gunz wants to use to pass through.
* If you do not use a router or firewall and the problem is appearing from using the modem directly, some company stocked modems feature built in firewalls (like most Microsoft cable modems do), these can only be edited by the ISP, a program they gave you or on there special website with management tools (not many have this problem though)
* Try changing the port that gunz uses by going into the gunz menu and editing the number, some people have had good luck with this method for unknown reasons, maybe your pc hates port 7700.
* If you use a router or a firewall that supports the same sort of features, make sure ports 7700 are open as well as any other port you change to in the gunz menu, this has helped alot of people.
* If your internet speed is slow, your max players per game is limited by quite a bit, some 512/128 internet users may find there fine with 8 players but lag to 999 for everyone if in a 16 player game.
* Some times, all you need to do is relogin into the game ** If this is your first time getting 999 Pings.

------------------- II. Getting Started -------------------
The first step in being able to play Gunz is actually being able to download it, isn't it? Again, we're assuming we're talking about the Ijji version of Gunz, so do not ask me about other versions.
The first thing you need to know is that Ijji's website uses extensive Java and flash on their website, so your only choice is to use Internet Explorer, or Firefox's IE Tab to view the website. AGAIN, INTERNET EXPLORER OR IE TAB ONLY.
===================== IIA. Creating Your Account =====================
1: Go to http://ijji.com using Internet Explorer or Firefox's IE Tab add-on. 2: Click "Sign Up now!" in orange letters, on the right side of the screen. 3: Fill out the information in the fields to get your account made. 4: Once you've had your account activated, go to http://gunz.ijji.com 5: Click "PLAY LIVE" in the round orange button on the page. 6: Sign in to your account, this will begin installing Gunz on your computer.
From this point on, when you want to play Gunz, you must sign in on Ijji's Gunz site and click the "PLAY LIVE" button. This activates the Gunz Launcher and lists announcements. Press START when you want to begin running Gunz.
============================ IIB. Creating Your Character ============================
The game will begin loading and when finished, will prompt you to select which server you'll be playing on.
Servers -------
* 2 CLANWAR servers * 2 MATCH servers * 5 QUEST servers
The first thing to do is to make your character, so click CREATE. Give your character a name. You can even use alt codes and put spaces in your name using alt+0160, or other alt characters if you want, though they tend to be annoying and inconvenient.
+-------+ If you use alt+0160 at the END of your name, (space)^9 will appear |WARNING| at the end of your name, and the text you type inside the lobby will +-------+ automatically be written in yellow. This may sound cool at first, but it ruins the way your name looks and the yellow font is annoying.
If the name you pick has invalid alt characters you get the error: nomsg-1. After picking a name you can customize your character's gender and looks. Once you've chosen your looks, you can also choose your class. There are six classes available:
CLASSES -------
* Axium Gun Knight * Axium Gun Priest * Axium Assassin * Travia Gun Fighter * Travia Doctor * Travia Scout
Which class you choose ultimately affects nothing; the only difference is their default equipment. The Travia Doctor is generally held as the best class, because you can sell the extra items for new weapons and armor right off the bat and have extra cash to work with.
The next time you log in, you can select your character from this screen, create a new one, or delete it. You can create as many as 4 characters per account. If you want to create more, you can always open a new account.
Your character's life is determined by how much HP (Hit Points) they have. Once you run out of HP, you are dead. Depending on the gamemode is how you'll respawn. All characters have a default 100 HP. AP (Armor Points) is additional soak life gained from your armor and additional equipment. WT (Weight) is how much your character can carry.
Your character has specific slots for specific equipment. All of your equipment's combined weight must be 100 or less, or you will be unable to fight.
Slots -----
* Head: Hats * Body: Shirts, jackets * Legs: Pants * Hands: Gloves * Feet: Shoes, boots * Melee: Sword, dagger, kodachi * Gun 1: Pistols, revolvers, smgs, etc. * Gun 2: Pistols, revolvers, smgs, etc.
