Information
Originally started as a fork from Quackster/Kepler, this is a server created in Java designed to revive Habbo Hotel v31 from the 2009 era and its inception was in early 2018 as a side project. Havana is the most complete v31+ server to date, this was undertaken by various reverse engineering efforts of the Shockwave client throughout the years to achieve this.
Havana has been an independent project, almost entirely developed by myself for 4 years straight. This project means a lot to me, and was always going to be released as open-source work. I am a firm believer in open-source and free software for everybody.
Want to see this project live? See Classic Habbo where we have been running the hotel for 4+ years straight on Havana.
Sulake used the Adobe/Macromedia Shockwave as its multimedia platform for their game (Habbo Hotel) from 2001-2009. In the last year, Habbo made the move to the Adobe Flash client, and then in 2020 made the switch to the Unity engine, while still maintaining their flash client.
Nowadays, the Shockwave client cannot be played in modern browsers as they have removed NPAPI support due to deprecation, end of life support and therefore must be played on forks of browsers that still have the NPAPI enabled.
The reason why Shockwave emulators exist is for multiple reasons, the first is that Habbo uses a virtual currency called credits which is spent using real money and makes it a pay to win game, our own faithful recreation of Habbo can make credits free for everybody. The second is the fact that modern Habbo still lacks features that were once available to the users that played during the Shockwave-era - and is thus, to be intended to be used for educational purposes only as a preservation effort for an old game.
Download
Source code is available at GitHub here.
Download the latest development build from the releases page.
Requirements
To be honest, this server doesn't require much. I'd argue that the MariaDB server is more resource demanding than the emulator itself.

Installation
Install MariaDB server, connect to the database server and import havana.sql (located in /tools/havana.sql).
Download the latest development build from the releases page and rename the files to remove the short build hash version, for convenience.
Install any JDK version that is equal or above >= 17 to run the jar files.
Run both Havana-Server.jar and Havana-Web.jar at least once to generate the necessary configuration files, configure the MySQL attributes to connect to the MariaDB server.
Download the havana_www_10092023 file, and then extract it to /tools/www/ this directory is located where you ran Havana-Web.jar.
(This is the default directory for static content within the Havana-Web project, but the directory where it looks for static images can be configured in the Housekeeping settings).
Open Havana-Web.jar via
Open Havana-Server.jar via
Your server should be up and running and accessible via http://localhost/
I highly recommend this browser to be able to play Adobe Shockwave movies in the present day.
Once registered as an admin, I high recommend running groups.sql against your database, it will create the Habbo Guides, SnowStorm, BattleBall, Wobble Squabble and Lido Diving gaming groups for the website.
And then make yourself admin by setting your rank to 8 in the users table.
Important for Linux users
Install the font manager, to enable the captcha to work on the website.
Figure/Group Imaging Installation
Follow the install steps for Minerva:
https://github.com/Quackster/Minerva/blob/master/README.md
In your 'settings' table for Havana, set "site.imaging.path" to whatever Minerva is listening on:
Fixing in-client group badges
In external_texts.txt (yes, external texts) make sure that group_logo_url_template is set to the following
Where %site_url% you should replace with your actual website url.
Now throughout your website and client, all images should work correctly.
-
Now you're successfully hosting an imaging service that is completely independent of Habbo!
