WoW Mangos 4505, ScriptDev2 136 with Project Silvermoon Rev18
By Reaper-X on Sep 25, 2007 in Emulators, Freeware, MMORPG, Quick Fix, Software, Windows
I just uploaded another update to WoW Mangos Emulator, this time i’m using Mangos Revision 4505 plus ScriptDev2 Rev136 and with Project Silvermoon Mangos Database Revision 18. Other than that i also create a small batch script to help you simplify the upgrade process if you’re using my previous Mangos 4488 files, thought i’m quite sure that you can also use it even if you are not using my Mangos 4488 :)
UPDATE : I just uploaded a new Modified version of WoW Mangos 4524 for WoW 2.2 client and WoW 2.1.3 Client … and also i’ve changed the batch script to make things even easier especially to those who’s still having problem with Mangos 4505 and 4488 ;)
UPDATE : Many thanks to Caldaga for telling me that i forgot to include the VMaps Extractor and Assembler into this 4505 Release (although it’s included in my previous 4488 release). So if you’re using this 4505 release (small version or full version) … make sure to download the VMaps Extractor and Assembler too (no wonder there’re some people who’s experiencing VMaps related error message)
# VMaps Extractor and Assembler (143 KB)
As a side note, VMaps is different than Maps. Maps are required for WoW Mangos to work, while VMaps not required except that you want support for line of sight and height calculation (but i’d suggest you to use it too)
And just like before, i uploaded two version of my mangos release. The first version is to those who’s already have Mangos installed and configured, and / or already using another database (SDB for an example). Already familiar with importing each mangos core update manually, and so on … Or it might also be useful to those who’s using slow connection like me and prefer a smaller file size to download
Mirror:
#1. Mangos Revision 4505 with ScriptDev2 Revision 136 | Mediafire
#1. Mangos Revision 4505 with ScriptDev2 Revision 136 | Megaupload
Inside the small version you can find DBC, Maps and VMaps extractor, and also a batch file inside the Backup Directory just in case you want to Backup your important Mangos Character Data or the Realmd table and data
As for the second version, basically is just the same like the above version with the exception this one also included the Project Silvermoon Rev18 database, and also contain a batch script to import the database
Mirror:
#2. Mangos Revision 4505 with ScriptDev2 Revision 136 plus Project Silvermoon DB Rev18 | MediaFire
#2. Mangos Revision 4505 with ScriptDev2 Revision 136 plus Project Silvermoon DB Rev18 | Megaupload
If you’re using my previous Mangos 4488 release, and are not familiar with importing the core update manually, i’d suggest you to get the second version instead :)
As a note, i created the batch script inside to help simplify the upgrade process from Mangos 4488 to Mangos 4505 to those who download my previous full database / without db which mean that it has been tested only with Mangos 4488 only (if you’re using lower version it might or might not work for you) … and i only tested it on Windows XP SP2
And here are the instruction to those who’s going to use the Full Database version :
If you’re upgrading from my previous Mangos 4488 :
1. Extract the archive somewhere in your harddisk, for example C:\reaper-mangos-R4505-full
2. Go to C:\reaper-mangos-R4505-full\Backup and then execute / run backup.bat
3. When prompted if you’re using my previous Mangos release, answer yes .. and then when asked for your mysql bin path, write your Mysql bin path there for example C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin if you follow my previous mysql guide and is using the default path
4. Go to C:\reaper-mangos-R4505-full\reaper-eazy-mangos and then run import.bat. When prompted for your MySQL root password, just write your mysql root password there and then continue the rest and wait until it finished
5. Now go back C:\reaper-mangos-R4505-full\Backup and this time you need to run the backup-importer.bat file, and continue the process like before until it finished
6. Now for the last step, you just need to open mangosd.conf and edit the datadir path into the correct datadir path … that’s it … you’re done :)
If you’re installing for the first time (some part copied from my previous wow mangos 4488 guide) :P
1. Copy the ad.exe from MapExtractor Directory into C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft
2. Create new folder called maps, and then run the ad.exe … and wait until this process finished (don’t interrupt it)
3. Copy all files inside VmapExtractAssembler into C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft and run the makevmaps_SIMPLE.bat … and wait again until it finished
4. Copy all files inside DBC Extractor into C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Data\enUS … and run the extract.bat … and wait until it finished
5. Move vmaps, maps, and dbc folder from your World of Warcraft installation path into C:\reaper-mangos-R4505-full\data (create folder named data first)
6. Open Mangosd.conf using Wordpad … and then find this line :
DataDir = "I:/WoW/Data"
Change it to :
"C:/reaper-mangos-R4505-full/data" (include the quotes)
7. Go to C:\reaper-mangos-R4505-full\reaper-eazy-mangos and then run the import.bat
8. Open realmlist.wtf file from C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft using Notepad and change the :
set realmlist us.logon.worldofwarcraft.com
into
set realmlist 127.0.0.1
11. Run Mangosd.exe and Realmd.exe (and keep it running)
12. At the Mangosd window type these :
create MyUsername MyPassword
setgm MyUsername 3
to create a test user with MyUsername as username and MyPassword as password, see below image for an example :
13. Now run the WoW.exe from your World of Warcraft Game Directory, for example C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\WoW.exe (not the launcher)
and you’re done :)
And now here’s the link for the Mangos Commands
Okay that’s it … if i’m missing something just let me know :)
Note to those who’s changing the database name : If you changed the database name from the default name, you’ll also need to change the db name manually in the backup-importer.bat, and import.bat … i’ll add it for the next release as for now … you need to do it manually (i’m sorry, i completely forgot about it … perhaps that’s because i haven’t sleep since yesterday and too tired to think … beside it’s already morning here lol)

-_- whats the correct dir path? if i already have installed 4488
nvm im an idiot =D
4. Go to C:\reaper-mangos-R4505-full\Backup\reaper-eazy-mangos and then run import.bat. When prompted for your MySQL root password, just write your mysql root password there and then continue the rest and wait until it finished
--- path should be "C:\reaper-mangos-R4505-full\reaper-eazy-mangos"
:)
ah lol, didn't noticed ... thanks for the correction, i've fixed it :D
Oh one more thing.
i think you forgot to include the vMapExtract stuff on this one.
nice guide :)
Hey great guides there Reaper! Keep up the great work!!
I don't know whats wrong with mine...
It says:

Ohh nevermind found out lol... But Great Guides keep it up!
BTW where do i find ''fun builds'' to my server? If you know what im talking about. Like a server with fun stuff in it... i don't know how to create such stuff...
thanks :) ... as for fun builds .. im not to sure what do you mean by fun builds (is it a wow server with custom stuff added in the database ?) ... could you explain it a little bit more ?
Yeah you were correct, with custom stuff added. Like teleports in alle spawning/Starter grounds that teleport you to ''the fun areas'', and shoping malls to buy the best equipment and stuff like that.
I dont know about the teleport, but if you want to buy some rare equip you can always teleport to GMIslands ;)
but if you're modifying the database of course it's possible to do that (dunno if there's a premade database for fun stuff)
try http://www.mangosproject.org or http://www.wowps.org they have some downloads for custom things.
Thanks! Both of you!
Shit btw Reaper you didnt tell me the coordinates to GMs island :P XYZ
Hi there,
i was following this guide, but the maps/files i have to download, dont include:
"vMapExtract" where can i get it? since i need it to set up my WoW server
thanks in advance:-)
kind regards,
Fender
Hey.
Thank you for yet another great guide.
But i found an error in your backup.bat when the user types: nope:
:nope
echo.
echo What is your database username ?
echo.
set /p mangosusr=
echo What is your database password ?
echo.
set /p mangospw=
echo What is your mangos database name ?
echo.
set /p mangosdb=
echo What is your mangos database name ?
echo.
set /p realmddb=
Everything seems right but:
echo What is your mangos database name ?
echo.
set /p realmddb=
That will give some errors at some piont becuarse right above stands:
echo What is your mangos database name ?
echo.
set /p mangosdb=
So the user thinks he has to write it two times but really hasn't. It all ads up to that it should look like this instead:
:nope
echo.
echo What is your database username ?
echo.
set /p mangosusr=
echo What is your database password ?
echo.
set /p mangospw=
echo What is your mangos database name ?
echo.
set /p mangosdb=
echo What is your realm database name ?
echo.
set /p realmddb=
Js. ;)
And for Seballe check out this one:
http://projectsilvermoon.net/index.php?showtopic=2167
It gives alot of GM shops. Pretty fun.
Downloaded the mangos 4488
included the mapextract :-)
thanks
i downloaded everything good but when the new paych updated it says “Unable to Validate your game version.” This may be caused by file corruption or another program interference." anyidea whats wrong?
Hi there,
got another problem,
when i Copy all files inside DBC Extractor, into C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Data\enUS ( en Gb here..) … and run the extract.bat it says it cant find the
- “locale/enUS.mpq”
-” patch-enUS.mpq”
-”patch-enUS-2.mpq”
Does this mean this mangos program only works with the US version of WoW ???
if so, is there any method to make this work for the EU / enGB version ??
thanks you again all :-)
kind regards,
Fender

http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?2qjgmgtmyxq
# kahilan
It seems that you just updated your WoW into 2.2, there're also other person who's experiencing the same problem like you too
and unfortunately this version is tested only on 2.1.3 and it doesn't seem to work on 2.2 which is just recently got released to the public :( (i'll post it again if there's an update)
# Js
Thanks a lot for the fix :D (i'm going to upload the updated version with the fix included) ;)
thanks =D i thought it was somthing i did lol
lol i delelted mangos to reinstall it to see if i messed up on somthing and i can't get past the import.bat thingy lol

@kahilan
I had the same problem but after putting C:\reaper-mangos-R4505-full\reaper-eazy-mangos\
in front of the sql scripts within the "Import.bat" file it worked like a charm.
Copy and replace all content in the Import.bat filewith the following, save and run it:

Where did you install mysql ? (the full path)
I just wanted to say thanks much for all your efforts, Reaper! You're alright in my book!
I just have a question or two.
First, I can't seem to download your newest 4505 revision from the site it's posted on. Is the link broken or down?
Second, I was wondering if you knew if there was a GM command to put a single player in a raid group? I'd like to see the raid-only areas, but I can't seem to enter them without being in a raid (which requires at least 5 people. . . ).
Thanks much!
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Sever 5.0\bin
@Nero you should beable to edit the raid group in mangosd.config
# Ignore raid requirement to enter instance
Hi, I'm unable to download the file from mediafire... I just load the page but the download never start... could you put it elsewhere... or send it to my email
thanks
# Kahilan
and is there a mysql.exe executable there ? and btw what is the error message when you run the import.bat ?
because i see different message compared to your previous comment :
1. The system cannot find the file specified.
2. The filename, directory name, or volume lable syntax is incorrect.
A brief description for the above error message,
For #1. That mean the import.bat is working, but can't find the mysql.exe in the mysql path you've specified
For #2. That mean the import.bat is not working, and in this case because it was missing enclosing quotes
And lastly ...
from your previous comment (dunno if its typo mistake or not lol) :
you said that your mysql path is :
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Sever 5.0\bin
but you inserted this path when prompted on import.bat
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin
# jpcote and nero
i just tested it and it worked just fine (did you disable javascript in your browser ?)
Thanks Kahilan! I really appreciate it.
I tried with IE7 and FF and nothing work... my javascript is enable...
I got a timeout while trying to retrieve the file
got a suggestion on which file sharing service i should use ?
i thought that because previously some users dont really like megaupload and rapidshare service, mediafire is the way to go lol (btw im going to report about this problem to their support team)
so i need your suggestion first on where to upload it :) .. (btw it'll take a while to upload it, because of my slow connection)
Reaper,
I'm still getting the same problem, both in Firefox and in Explorer. Javascript is enabled for both. Firefox just times out with an error, and IE couldn't even find the site. No automatic download starts, and I get the problems above when I try to manually download it.
Hmm, as for uploading, I don't really know what would work. You could try filefront, but I'm not sure they'd take kindly to material like this on there.
Rapidshare and Megaupload aren't the best, but since it's just one file I don't think it'd be that bad. The sites automatically limit each IP to one download per day, but that's all people would need.
Hrm, seems that the mangos-only file can be downloaded. It's the link with the Silvermoon Rev18 that doesn't work.
actually i tested them both and they worked fine .. but as your suggestion im going to mirror it into another site :)
Nice! Thanks much for taking the time to help!
finished uploading to megaupload (sorry it take a while just as i said before because uploading 9MB file takes more than 25 minutes for me) :)
going to get some sleep now (already 7:10AM Sept 26 here and havent sleep since yesterday lol)
Thanks for the upload it works for me !
lol i was try to use your other version thanks for the help ;)
Do you know if there is away to increase green, blue, purp. or lend. drops in the mysql.config? i tried to increase the item drops but i get like 8 grey things lol
Hi,
I don't know if I'm the ony one in this situation... but I installed this version of the server and I'm not able to play with my friend... the server seem to accept connection from localhost only...
Anyone can help ?
ok my fault, I forgot to change the Realm IP in the database...
sorry
i have 1 more ? is there away i can go back to useing 2.1.3? instead of 2.2?
What is new here with this update? Just bug fixes? or for the new 2.2.0 version?
Hi Reaper was hoping you could help me with this problem i'm having

Hello again! Thanks for the help before, I wasnt running both Programs! But the recent Wow Patch has caused havoc on my Private server, and I tried thsi update to see if it would remedy the problem. But now the Mangosd file wont run. it jsut opens and closes. Any Ideas? :)
Thanks reaper x,
it all works great now!!
as a side note, if i update my real WoW today t0 2.2 , do i need to do all these things over again ?
anyway, thanks!!
Fender
# Kahilan
If you want to revert to the 2.1.3 version, the safest way to do this is to run the repair.exe to revert back to the TBC installation
for more info, read Chrisb comment :)
# Ac
Did you create the maps directory first before running the ad.exe ?
# jpcote
Thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge, i really appreciate it :)
# Naomi & Fender
Unfortunately the new 2.2 patch still not supported even with the latest mangos from SVN :(
so .. the only way to use it is reverting back to 2.1.3 or wait until the 2.2 has been supported ;)
as for the mangos close itself automatically, try checking the mangosd.conf first and if you already configured the datadir properly, that means you haven't updated the sql database yet :)
Hey, just updated from the previous version and now i'm getting this error with Mangosd:
''ERROR:Error in `creature_template` table, probably sql file format was updated (there should be 66 fields in sql).''
Any ideas?
# JB
that mean you didnt import the mangos database inside the reaper-eazy-mangos directory :)
first use the backup.bat to backup your character data
and then run the import.bat to update the database
lastly, run the backup-importer.bat to restore your backup and you're done ;)
# pnoy
bug fixes only, still not support the new 2.2 yet :( (i'll update it later when 2.2 patch has been supported)
That's exactly what i done... tried again just to make sure but the same thing happened.
hey, i'm using u'r dbc files, but still i get folliwing error with mangosd.exe:
Loading Creature Model Based Info Data...
SQL: SELECT MAX(`modelid`) FROM `creature_model_info query ERROR: Table ´mangos.creator_model_info´doesn't exist
Error loading `creature_model_info`table (not exist?)
misspelled:
query ERROR: table´mangos.creature_model_info´ doesn’t exist
# JB
did you get error message when importing ?
# niz
that error mean, you didn't import the sql file properly
aye, figured it out now tho! tnx :)
Everything imports fine, run Mangosd, loads everything fine up until Item Texts where it closes. Checked the Server log and it shows the error message i first posted.
didn't help i also tried to rerun the maps and the vmaps =(

Thanks Reaper =D
# JB
I assume you've imported the sql using import.bat, and now ... did you run the mangosd.exe bundled with the 4505 version or did you run the 4488 version ?
if you ran the 4488 version it'll not work simply because the mangos database structure got changed
# Gina
Based from your description it seems that mangos can't find the 04331 vmap file, now try this :
1. Go to C:\reaper-mangos-4505-full\data from windows explorer
2. use the windows search function to search for 000_43_31.vmdir
and see if you can locate it or not :)
It can't find it :(
aah that mean you havent extracted it yet .. or if you already extracted it, you didn't move the vmaps and maps directory from your WoW Game directory which is created at the extraction process ;)
I ran the 4505 version, also checked the Data Dir path which is correct and the file it is looking for is in there.
Thanks for the work. Can't wait to try this later
i don't know what to do, i've extracted everything and moved them to my mangos data files =(
# Darkjedi187
Your welcome :)
# Gina
try opening the mangosd.conf using Wordpad. and search for these lines :
vmap.enableLOS = 1
vmap.enableHeight = 1
then replace it with :
vmap.enableLOS = 0
vmap.enableHeight = 0
to disable VMaps support (btw it'd be best to enable vmaps but since you're having problem with vmaps, i'd suggest to try the above fix first to see if its working or not)
# JB
Could you paste here all of the messages you received when running import.bat ?
See Seballe previous comment for an example of the output
hi reaper i used your silvermoon-17 but my pc chrashed now i wanna use rev18 but i complete all steps but if i want to start reamd.exe or mangosd.exe they gives a error that he cant started... he cant find ''msvcr71.dll'' whats wrong? ps: sorry for my bad english iam from holland ;)
Could you describe exatcly how to reinstall 2.1.3 patch if i have already installed 2.2

If you had the previous patch stored on your computer, all you have to do is just run the repair.exe to revert back to the default TBC installation
and then you just need to apply the individual patch manually until 2.1.3 :)
ok...i started thr repair..but its just checking files..nothing else
Anyone tryed 4505 with WoW TBC 2.2.0 yet?
how can i disable auto dowloading patches?
Nvm i deleted patch.mpq and it set it back to 2.0
but reaper plz i wanna play on my own server.... you know how to disable the wow patch downloader
?
i downloaded everythingon my b/f computer and copied to my computer file and it working now =D no idea what was going on with my files lol, thanks for helping me!!!
got any good sites for individual patches please?
# Seballe
4505 (or even the current version i checked out from SVN repository) still not support the WoW 2.2 client that is just released yesterday :(
# Merijn
You can disable it from the WoW Launcher (open the options page when launching wow)
# Gina
Your welcome :)
# Niz
I usually go to filefront.com to download individual patch (i even already downloaded the 2.2 but still not planning on upgrading yet) :P
:( my downloader won't stop trying to update to 2.2 i even switched my options around any chance you could help me =D
Thanks i got the map extractor to work turns out i had to use my wow saved in my documents and not the one under program files. thanks :)
Hey guys, i did everything that was described in the walkthrough and read through all the posts above but for some reason mangosd window wont stay open for more than a split second. I tried deleting everything and starting over twice but I still get the same problem. The server window opens and runs fine but the mangosd wont.
Well i got mangosd so stay up but now it says it can't find 0004331.map but when i did a search it is in there...
Got it working, just needed to capitalize the name of the reaper-~~~~~ folder since the mangosd wasn't reading the lower case r at the beggining of the directory lol
I messed around with the directory; but it continues to close instantly. I followed all the steps so I think I did it right, I didnt get any errors or anything.
i cant download reaper-mangos-R4505-full-v2.rar
so how do i do the dateabase exchange manually?
and how do u "downgrade" wow so i can get below the 2.2 patch?
I just physically removed the patch file. But I dont know if that will work.
it did tyvm naomi
and how do u set this up so a friend can play with you?? like on my home network?
and ty reaper you have been awsome!!!
http://www.reaper-x.com/2007/07/03/creating-public-server-for-lan-party-setting-up-private-wow-server/
ok so i got it all downloaded and working but......... everytime i log in it downloads the 2.2patch right away and i cant get to the character list or realm list...how do i get around this?
ok yeah this sux lol.....all i need to do is sign on and i can play but since there is a new patch i cant use 4505
Hi Reaper-X
It is a Great tutorial but i got this problem and i realy dont know how to solve it maybe you can help me out ??

Thx For helping Ciao
Hey reaper, I've downloaded and done everything in this guide but now mangosd can't find a database. The error goes like this without the spam of M's:
World Database: 127.0.0.1;3306;mangos;mangos;mangos
Could not connect to MySQL database at 127.0.0.1: Can't connect to MySQL server on '127.0.0.1'
Cannot connect to world database 127.0.0.1;3306;mangos;mangos;mangos
Then it stops and you have to Ctrl-C to exit it. Any idea what's up. Thanks Jason
Hiya
Jason Try start>run>CMD
and check your own IP by typing ipconfig
and then use that local ip adress i think that should work

# Gina and other who's prefer not to upgrade to 2.2 patch
The simple answer would be ... running the wow.exe directly from your WoW installation directory instead of running the launcher first (the screen that pop up when you start the wow) ... but first you need to make sure that you already configured the launcher to not update automatically in background while playing ;)
# Ferysa
Which version you're using ? the full database version or the binary only ?
If you're using the full database version you just need to run the import.bat file inside the reaper-eazy-mangos directory ;)
# Jason
Ah you need to start the mysql service first :)
# Naomi
Could you tell me what's the error message from the server.log and realmd.log file (inside logs directory)
thanks =D
Your welcome Gina :)
Im having problems when my roomm8 is trying to log in ...he gets to "logging into game server message" and then it goes backto realm selection page. We re behind the same rooter
The only log that appears in there is the Realmd log. The Realm program seemed to run fine.
2007-09-26 20:59:00 Using configuration file realmd.conf.
2007-09-26 20:59:00 MaNGOS realm daemon /0.8-SVN (Win32)

Also *I* can log in from my comp perfectly..just everyone else cant from my network. Reaper could u add me to MSN or something? Would be alot easier to talk avout it then my msn is cathawk114@hotmail.com
have you changed the realmlist ip address in the realmd table to use your lan ip address ?
Hi
I still get the same error i just wrote before and if i run the import.bat file inside the reaper-eazy-mangos directory it says
If you get any error message just let me know
Press any key to continue . . .

Hi, do somebody happen to know how to enable Darkmoon fair in 4505?? Becuase i LOVE Darkmoon fair Thanks in advance!
bah im getting the same error as gina, but i dont have a boyfriend to copy my files from >< anyone got any ideas?
im trying the convert to older patch and then login using the wow.exe instead of the launcher....i will let u know what happens
ok reverting back to an earlier version, having the launcher on Do Not Download, and using the wow.exe doesnt work....it still downloads the update right after i log in and sends me to the blizzard downloader....
what do i do now?
Hey,
Now I'm getting the same error that Gina was, it's not finding one of the vmap files. I can locate it and place it in, but then it says it's missing another vmap file. So even after re-extracting everything, and placing everything in it's appropriate directories I still get the error. Although it does run with vmaps disabled it crashes in game. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Jason
Well Reaper. I didnt really get what you said..but still tried..didnt work. Maybe we could manage this problem when we use Remote assistance and i could let you into my computer. Everything works..just noone else can log into my server. Something is wrong with the Ip-s. Could really use your remote assistance help
# Niteshade & Jason
Could you tell me how many files are there in the data directory ?
mine is :
Size : 2.86 GB (3,081,568,204 bytes)
Size on Disk : 2.88 GB (3,103,653,888 bytes)
Contain : 6967 Files 3 Folder
As a note, if you're sure the total files has the same result like mine, try moving the data directory into your mangos directory
and then open the mangosd.conf and change the datadir into "data" (with quotes) and don't copy paste from here because the software automatically change quotes into curly quotes :(
# Tulla
Renaming the enGB directory into enUS isn't going to work because the dbq files also named blabla-enGB ;) .. so you need to change that one one
# Ferysa
Did you happen to change the database name from the default into another one ?
default database name for mangos is mangos
default database name for realmd is realmd
btw could you take a screenshot at the import.bat process ?
# B
Btw when you've reverted to the default TBC installation and update it manually with the individual patch until 2.1.3, did you run the launcher again and set it to not download automatically ?
# Prowler
Look at my previous post about enabling lan support in mangos but use your lan ip address instead
Reaper thanks for everything you've posted here. So far three times now (I've tried each mirror once and now the mediafire mirror twice) I get an error part of the way through downloading saying I can't read the source code?
BTW I guess I should add this gives me part of the file, but not the entire file.
I just tried it and i didnt notice any problem at all ... btw i think you should clear your browser cache first and redownload the file again
Actually I just got the download to complete, I'm in Iraq so it may have been a connection issue. The only directories it has in it is : Backup, DBC Extractor, Logs, MapExtractor, OriginalSQL, and reaper-eazy-mangos. It also has some files in it. Does it sound like I am missing anything?
Anyone have a link to where i can get the VmapExtractorAssembler?
OMG !!! ... thanks a lot for reminding me that i completely forgot to include it in this mangos 4505 release .. (thought i already included it in my mangos 4488 release)
i'll upload it right away and update this post (143 KB only) :)
Is it going to be uploaded as part of the 9mb file or seperately =/?
Sweet thanks for the help I'm going to try and install everything now =/ (this means I will be back with more questions).
I know this won't work with 2.2, but will it work with 2.0.0?
Well I have pretty much figured out it will not work with 2.0.0 enless you know something I don't know (very possible). However does the vmapextractorassembler also create a "Buildings" folder?
Hi again.. :o)
I don't get it what to rename and will wow be able to read it if i rename it?? is there a extract.bat file for the enGB files? it would make it a lot easier not just for me.. :D
Have a nice Weekend every1 :o)
Tulla: Right click on extract.bat and click edit, then go to edit and click find, in the find type in enUS and click find, when it finds the text replace it with enGB then hit find next and continue until it doesn't find any.
yes i did do that but still nothing
my ad.exe dont work plz help
