I am sure this thread is dead or something... but I have been at this for about 17 hours now and I am stuck at step 5...

I have extracted the maps
I have extracted the vmaps
I have extracted the dbc files

I ran step 1 with no problems although it asked me a ton of questions that the guide doesn't talk about:

username? (suggest the default of root)
password? (this one is mentioned)
database name? (suggests mangos)
characters database name? (suggests characters may be the default)
Realm database name? (suggests realmd may be the default)

So I just accepted the default even though I never created these, nor did I choose a username during setup.

I placed all the map\vmap\dbc files in WoW\data originally like the guide suggests, but that is not my WoW install path, and I read above that they should be placed in the WoW installation directory even though the picture provided does not show the other files in the WoW data directory, nor does the guide tell you it should be your actual install directory, So I moved them into my World of Warcraft\Data folder. And I edited the .conf file to match.

Then I used the file format slash separators "\" instead of the "/" listed in the help... so I changed that.

Then I changed the mangos.mangos section of the conf files to match my username and password (assuming root is the username... as I say, I never chose a username)

And it still tells me:

The system could not find the file specified
The system could not find the file specified
The system could not find the file specified

If you see any errors let me know.

So here I am... after 17 hours and 2 days of headaches... letting you know. I appreciate all of the effort Reaper has gone to as nobody is pointing a gun at his head demanding he do this, so I will patiently await his reply.

Thanks

ignore that post, I didn't notice it was solved already

I have one issue, "Some required *.dbc files (1 from 39) not found or not compatible: C:\WoW\data/dbc/ItemEdtnededCost.dbv (exists, but have 14 fields instead of 13) Wrong client version DBC file?"

Waa????

Any way to fix this?

@steve

I am not Oatman but i know what is wronge.
go into you Mangoss.confg and change then lines:

Logindatabaseinfo "127.0.0.1;3306;mangos;mangos;realmd"

and there should be a TOTAl 3 of these lins in mangosd.confg.

right, CHANGE the first mangos to your SQL username, and the second to your SQL PASSWORD

For example;
Logindatabaseinfo "127.0.0.1;3306;root;root;realmd"

There is one more of these lines in the REALMD.confg
should be
logindatabaseinfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;mangos;mangos;realmd

change the first mangos to your SQl login and your second to your SQL pass (same deal as mangosd)
for example,
127.0.0.1;3306;root;root;realmd

That's the Error Message i getting i got this in the Config-file:

vmap.enableLOS = 0
vmap.enableHeight = 0
