Guide Information
Hello, and welcome to Maple's Story - a brand new beginner's guide to MapleStory. So, if you're stuck, and need help, this guide should sum it all up for you. Please note that this guide is currently still under construction, and thus, there may be a few errors/unfinished categories here and there. Anyhow, thanks for reading, and enjoy!

Guide Administrators
Setting Up MapleStory
Assuming that you haven't yet registered for, downloaded and installed MapleStory, please read this section of the guide thoroughly; and, if you have, please skip to the next section. Good luck!
MapleStory Servers
In MapleStory, there are currently eight different servers for you to choose from. Though, most, if not all, have applied IP blocks to users from other countries (for example, just recently, MapleStory Global IP blocked European users, so, now, they must use MapleEurope). The servers are as follows:
- MapleStory Korea (KMS)
- MapleStory Japan (JMS)
- MapleStory China (CMS)
- MapleStory Taiwan
- MapleStory Thailand
- MapleStory Global (OMS/GMS)
- MapleStory S.E.A. (MSEA)
- MapleStory Europe
Simply visit the MapleStory website and choose your appropriate server. (Seeing as this guide is written in English, I'm going to assume you're using either MapleStory Global, MapleStory S.E.A. or MapleStory Europe). Simple!
Account Registration
In order to play MapleStory, you must first have an active account to play on. This step shouldn't be too hard. (I will use MapleStory Global as a reference, though all servers have the same sort of registration system.) Just do the following to easily get through this. (It's kinda easy to figure out, but, whatever.)
- Click the 'Sign Up' button to your left.
- Enter your birthday (NOTE: You must be aged thirteen or over to play MapleStory)
- Click 'Proceed to Sign-Up!'
- Read the Nexon Privacy Policy, Nexon Terms of Use and Nexon End User License Agreement.
- Click each of the three 'boxes' and click 'OK'.
- Enter your wanted Nexon Passport ID, and press 'Check' once you're done.
- Enter your e-mail address.
- Re-enter your e-mail address, for confirmation purposes.
- Enter your wanted password.
- Re-enter your wanted password, for security (and confirmation) purposes.
- Enter your answer to 'What is the name of your best friend?'.
- Choose your second Security Question, and fill in your answer.
- Click 'Next>'.
- Enter your First, Middle and Last names.
- Select your gender.
- Re-enter your birthday.
- Select your country.
- Choose your State (/Province).
- Enter your Postal Code.
- Choose your Ethinicity.
- Click your appropriate 'boxes', preferably just 'I am the person named above and the above information is correct'.
- (FINALLY;) Click 'Finish'!
You will then receive a confirmation e-mail. Copy the code, re-visit the website, login, and enter your validation code. Voila! You are now a registered Nexon citizen.
Downloading & Installing
To download, simply visit the 'Downloads' page, and (if you're at the Nexon website, click the download button next to MapleStory) choose your appropriate file type, though I suggest .exe. Your download should take, on average, about 60 minutes (one hour), and, once it's done, launch MSSetup.exe. The installation shouldn't take long, and there's no point in me directing you as what to do. Once it's finished, you should see a MapleStory desktop shortcut on, yes, your desktop. Wuhoo! Simply launch MapleStory to begin your ACTUAL adventure.
Mushrooms and Maple Leaves
Now that you have the MapleStory client up and ready, why not start? Simply enter your Nexon Passport ID and Nexon Passport Password, and press Login. Now, you will be prompted to enter a customized PIN. (Four-digit, numbers only.) Try to make it very hard to figure out, but if it's too hard to remember, write it down somewhere safe. Once finished, you will be asked to re-enter the PIN, and then it will be set. Though tedious, just press 'Login' again, and enter your PIN. (Once.) Now, select one of the numerous...
MapleStory Worlds
In each MapleStory server, there are numerous worlds, with about 19/20 channels packed inside for you to devour. Assuming you have MapleStory Global, here is a list of all of its worlds:
Different worlds does not mean different content, but newer worlds will have less players than the older ones (obviously). I suggest choosing a semi-new world, like, Khaini. Not too populated, but still a decent amount of people to mix with.
