Reaper Mangos 5082 – Easy WoW Private Server for WoW 2.3.3
Posted by Reaper-X Jan 26 2008 9:58 am
Here we go again, another important and vital patch. Previously we took a vote using comments on the site and asked would you prefer a update that runs 2.3.3 or wait for a more compatible version. Well after countless tests on our Test-Server we have found only 2 very small bugs while running it. I highly recommend updating to this version because it applys major updates to the database and provides 2.3.3 support!
Updated in this Revision:
- Support for Patch 2.3.3
- ScriptDev2 Updated to 241
- AuctionHouse Improvements
- More Compatible Database
- New Quests
- New Items
- New Objects
- New NPC’s
- Stormwind has 1/10th more NPC’s
- Bug with humans getting confused with orcs by NPC’s
- Zones Redone:
- Blasted Lands
- Swamp of Sorrows
- Deadwind Pass
- StrangleThorn Vale
- Duskwood
- Westfall
- Redridge Mountains
- Fix one Karazhan quest by adding missing spawns
REQUIREMENTS:
1. MySQL Database and the Guide on how to Install MySQL
2. World of Warcraft Client version 2.3.3
3. Updated DBC’s, VMAP’s, and MAPS Updated for 2.3.3!
DBC’s are already included as part of this release!
4. Mangos Server :
Reaper Mangos 5116 Has been released, so grab the new one :)

Fresh Install:
Important Note : Fresh installation will overwrite your database
1. First you’ll need to install MySQL
2. Extracting Maps, DBC and VMaps from your World of Warcraft installation
(You can safely ignore the Patch-2, or any not found xxx-2 message)–This only happens if your extracting from patch 2.3.0
3. Run the reaper-x-mangos.bat inside the reaper-eazy-mangos folder, and you’ll see something like below image for an example, and then you just need to write the full path to your mysql installation directory (where mysql.exe and mysqldump.exe can be found) ;)
4. Selection Option 1 by pressing “1″ on the keyboard and pressing enter.
Note: This will wipe out any previous versions of WoW you have in your database.
6. After finished with all of the above process, all you have to do now is just open the realmlist.wtf file in your World of Warcraft installation directory (the default location can be found at C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft) using Notepad, Wordpad, or your favorite text editor and then …
Replace :
set realmlist us.logon.worldofwarcraft.com
set patchlist us.version.worldofwarcraft.com
With :
set realmlist 127.0.0.1
and then save it and close realmlist.wtf File.
7. Now you just need to run mangosd.exe and realmd.exe from your mangos directory and then the next step would be creating your own username with your desired password for your own WoW server account as shown on below image followed by typing setgm to give yourself a GM level account
By the way, if you can’t see what you should type inside the mangosd window from the above image, actually you just need to type :
create username password
to create the account
setgm username 1-3
to give yourself GM Access at certain level (3 is the highest level and should only be used on your account while normal player is 0)
8. Finally if you have Burning Crusade client installed and want to be able to create Burning Crusade specific character, all you have to do is just type :
setbc username 1
to enable burning crusade expansion for your account :)
Optional :
If you want to change the server name into something else, you can use the reaper-x-mangos.bat to adjust it :)
Upgrading from 5045 Release:
1. Re-extract vmaps, maps and dbc because this version no longer supports the old World of Warcraft 2.3.2 installation and only supports the new 2.3.3
2. Go into your WoW Reaper Server Directory, and open reaper-eazy-mangos. Next I recommend opening the batch file and backing up your character data. This is optional though.
3. Open the Folder called “Upgrade” and run reaper-x-upgrade.bat.
4. Next type in the directory to the Bin Folder where your mysql.exe and mysqldump.exe files are located.
5. Then make sure that you are upgrading from the latest previous version or else you WILL corrupt your database and possibly lose your character data.
Guide on how to Edit Mangos.Conf
Thanks for the Mangosd.conf edit guide Jeremy!
First off make sure that you have your MySQL running before doing anything.
You need to go back into the reaper folder (C:\Reaper-X-Easy-MaNGOS\reaper-eazy-mangos)
And run the batch file called reaper-x-mangos, there is an option there to setup your LAN or IP for use, This new batch file does correctly setup your DB to the IP you enter in this batch file. Once you’ve done that, if you haven’t gone back in to edit the config files in your reaper folder mentioned above, you need to do that, there is a section in there with this.
# Data directory setting.
# Important: DataDir needs to be quoted, as it is a string which may
# contain space characters.
DataDir = “C:\Reaper-X\data”
This is an example of waht it may look like. You need to change this to the path where you put your data folder with the maps, vmaps, and dbc’s.
Second, …
# Database connection settings for the world server.
# Default: hostname;port;username;password;database
# .;somenumber;username;password;database – use named pipes at Windows
# Named pipes: mySQL required adding “enable-named-pipe” to [mysqld] section my.ini
# .;/path/to/unix_socket;username;password;database – use Unix sockets at Unix/Linux
# Unix sockets: experimental, not tested
LoginDatabaseInfo = “127.0.0.1;3306;ROOT;PASSWORD;realmd”
WorldDatabaseInfo = “127.0.0.1;3306;ROOT;PASSWORD;mangos”
CharacterDatabaseInfo = “127.0.0.1;3306;ROOT;PASSWORD;characters”
Above, you need to change the MANGO;MANGOS to your root DB name, likey it’s just root, and YOUR batabase (DB) password (you should know this)
YOU DO NOT CHANGE THE IP’S here or in the realmd file, ONLY THROUGH THAT BATCH FILE, i mentioned above. (that file does it for you)
Next open scriptdev2.conf and realmd.conf and edit the info for them to connect to your database as well.
Hope you enjoy this release if you have any questions feel free to post them as a comment below!

ok i have the httpd.conf file set up like so…
# Change this to Listen on specific IP addresses as shown below to
# prevent Apache from glomming onto all bound IP addresses (0.0.0.0)
#
#Listen (my public IP http://www.whatismyip.com)
Listen 8080
///////////////a little farther down the page//
#
# If your host doesn’t have a registered DNS name, enter its IP address here.
#
ServerName mysite.dyndns.org:8080
still getting my router… i have port forwarding set up for 8080 to my ip and no luck :(
@aqw955
I think your vmaps should be larger then that before you extracted them did you delete the old vmaps and buildings folders? if not it can cause errors and force the extract to stop early.
The first time I ran it I stoped it way to early ended up with like 5 files in the folder. It took a good 20 to 30 min to extract on my system.
The maps extract has a nice counter on it telling you if it is 100% done but vmaps dosnt just give it time worst case extract it before you crash one night.
I would look at the size of the files and how many but stuck at work for at least another couple of hours
Hey, reaper. I have my Private Server up, the problem is connecting to it. It sticks on Authenticating and goes nowhere after that. If i hit the cancel button and try logging in again, it shows a black box with only the cancel button in it.
What’s going on?
some questions …..
1 the server is up and running … but can u make a post or something for in game bugs … or that`s the point of the test server u made? …..
well heck y have some little bugs and a little damn big one … so y wanted to ask here … when u reach 70 it gives u 256 talent point`s …. where do y change that ? in the db in mangos ? cause heck y`ve been looking around for hours and still nothing :P
@wown1t3
try changing your website to port 8080 and on your router change the port forwarding address as well to 8080. It is common for ISPs to block port 80 so you can’t host internal website without business account. (same with ftp, and my isp also blocks the wow realm port so I had to change mine to something else also.)
so your web site would be like
myrealm.dyndns.org:8080
# wown1t3
try changing the httpd port into another value like 8080, 81 or something else (since you’re using wamp, i cant really tell you on what file to edit) … but if you’re just using a standalone apache, all you have to do is just open httpd.conf and change the listen directive to another value
and finally dont forget to setup port forwarding for the new port :)
# zcdohl
Thanks :) .. as for command you can search for GM Commands list using the search box at the top of every page
thanks Ulgrath
my maps folder is 1.06gb, and vmaps is 1.75gb
is that normal? Because i got 2.2gb in vmaps for my old wow2.3.0.
Thx Reaper ^^. i figured it out.
thank you for bringing us such a wonderful program.
@aqw955
not at home looking but if memory serves me just over 2 gigs
takes about 20min to get them all where the dos box shows nothing just got to wait till it says press any key to continue
this is the directory i found the file in C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Data\maps
? for you are any of the events working in this patch like the arena in stv? and fishing events? I noticed the pools dont work ie: oily black mouth pool dosnt give you blackmouth fish anyone know?
SAME PROBLEM LOL! i cannot locate 0004331.map in my directory or w/e but its there, i saw it in my maps. Other thing, i try updating but it keeps sayin i want to update to the last version of mangos….?
hi~ how big is the maps and vmaps folder after running the extractors?
Nice website here. do you have command list for this mangos. because i missing .additem command. thanks.
#reaper i don’t have a problem accessing my router… but for some reason the port forwarding doesn’t work for port 80… i put windows xp back on my computer bc winserver 2003 screwed up on me… but i had a website up on it using iis but it didn’t use php (which was my initial problem) and i tried to install wamp on it and it went crazy and stopped working right… anyway i use a linksys WRT54G got a site name from DynDNS.com and set everything up… the website works locally when using my local ip from another computer on the network.. but when i have someone try to access it from online they get a (error website not available) message.. really frustrating… when i go in to set up port forwarding i get a list of options …
Application: (type text here)
Start: port #
to
End: port #
Protocol: both/tcp/udp
IP Address:192.168.1.(insert last 3 digits here)
Enable/disable (a check box)
i’ve got the ports set to forward connections on port 80 to my ip and set protocol to both… but no one can connect… wamp is online and running all services .. unless i missed a setting in wamp or something it should be working… but it’s not =( i’ve looked at a few setups of how it is done and copied it to the letter… and still not working :( i have a setting on the router for DDNS i’ve set that up to work with my DYNSYS acct. i figured that’s what it was there for… anyway i’m really lost as far as what i need to do for ppl to get access to my web page … :(
no i cannot locate the file 0004331
Could you tell me the full path where 0004331 can be found ?
or … if you found that file in C:\Wow\data\maps
then all you need to do is open mangosd.conf and look for datadir and change the datadir to C:\Wow\data
yes. i can find it directly off of my hard drive.
# wown1t3
To forward your router, i’d suggest you to read your router manual (usually most router use 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 as their default address) .. so try typing it in your browser and see if you can access your router configuration page (and no it dont need additional program)
# Draco and kelleye
Are you able to locate that file directly on your harddrive ?
# CougarPride
Could you try changing the realmd port into new value (edit realmd.conf) .. and then setup port forward for the new port .. and finally edit your realmlist.wtf file (in your wow directory) so it’ll point to the new port
for example :
mywowserver.com:newvalue or mycoolwowserver:7000
how do i set up my server so i can get my friends to join? i tried configuring my lan but idk wtf im doing lmao
@reaper-x
i have done everything i watced the video, did the guides everything. the ports 8085 & 3724 are open on my router and on my firewall. I dont know what to do. If people are connected to my network it works fine, even if they use the domain name (dyndns). Plse help
Thx very much. but i still am getting that error saying that i’m missing map 0004331.
its still giving me the missing map of 0004331 how do i fix this
#draco i had this problem too on a new install… easy fix http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msvcr71
google is your friend…. but shows no favors to me today :(
When ever i click on Mangosd it gives me this message. This Application has failed to start because MSVCR71.dll was not found.
How can i fix this problem?
@Ulgrath
thnx alot that helped a bunch now i just gotta try to get so my friends can get on :P
to anyone that has a web page sign in for thier server using WAMP. i’ve looked around and can’t find anything on the subject as far as port forwarding so that when ppl go to my website (got one set up figured out how to do it without using my ip) but i can’t figure out what program to forward my port to… i’ve tried wamp, httpd, localhost, apache, php, mysql… i even tried my local ip … can’t figure it out… maybe i’m doing something wrong… not sure… but every time i try to connect using the www address i get my router… plz help
sorry for the double post but very nice job reaper i really enjoy what you have done to help people with this
its easy to setup if you follow directions step-by-step and it works
the next thing im going to try to do is setup a LAN connection for it
ok guys i found out the hardway since i havent updated my mangos server since 2.3.0 that i decided to do a fresh MySQL install first thing i did was gone though the uninstall process
after the uninstall, do a file search for MySQL and delete the folder in program files and your MySQL database files folder
after doing this, there will be no trace of MySQL left on your computer and it should let you do a good clean install that will make your server come online fine
@Kelleye
Follow steps provided by Ulgrath. MaNGOSd.conf is set to load data dir from C:\Documents and Settings\Eric\Desktop\Reaper-X-Easy-MaNGOS\datas/vmaps.
@Kyle
More info: Is server supposed to give access to your LAN or over the net?
Only info that can be given is check realmlist.WTF, mangosd, realmd, and scriptdev2 for IP address 127.0.0.1:3306(loopback) or your IP address for LAN access.
Thanks to Oatman and Reaper-x for the tips and this site! Very Easy and have been using this site for a point of reference for awhile now.
Also, wanted to point out that some virus and spyware scanners are picking up a false positive on Reaper Mangos file. Should be a trojan backdoor Hupigon3.AMVL. Don’t fret this happened with winaces and a few other programs with initial releases.
im am literally connected 100% to the internet i can get on sites and use msn but the mysql will not connect at all wtf?
wow wow wow we are having some major issues the MySQL people updated to 5.0.45 and its making everything invalild on my server and everything is jakced up help please
@repper
you need to go into your mangos.cof file and edit the following line.
“Using DataDir @prefix@/share/mangos/”
to read where you put the db,vmaps, maps folders
mine reads
“Using DataDir c:/wow/data/”
Guide on how to Edit Mangos.Conf
Thanks for the Mangosd.conf edit guide Jeremy!
First off make sure that you have your MySQL running before doing anything.
Once you’ve done that, if you haven’t gone back in to edit the config files in your reaper folder mentioned above, you need to do that, there is a section in there with this.
# Data directory setting.

DataDir = “C:\Reaper-X\data”
hope that helps and dont forget to read… the…. walkthru :-P

# Merijn, I’ve been testing those custom vendors( I hope u meant the silvermoon guard ones) and I noticed they have been set to be “Spirit ressers”
So I changed them to be vendors and then they actually sold items ;)
U can use a programmer called Quice to change them to vendors
http://quice.indomit.ru/

ok nvm on the setup just need to figure out the port forwarding…

lol…
Also,
@SibernetiK
real easy, make sure you have all the ports open on your router, and make sure mangos is running on the “correct” port.. I have never had this problem before.. also, what do you mean by “stuck” what happens if they press enter world??
Hi everyone, sry for my bad english..so..
Anyone know, how i can modify skills for raise 3 and 3..the normal configuration is 1 and 1 (First Aid, Enchanting, and others..)
Anyone know this??
great job just a few notes
why are taurens the size of gobos? how do I fix that?
and when fishing in pools ie. oily blackmouth pool or floating reckage you dont get that type of fish.
not complaining just a heads up. You guys do a great job thanks for the hard work….. how do we make donations?
He
why the custom server vendors dousntt work>?
sorry for the numerous posts. one last issue. anyone that is connected to my LAN is able to log in and play. however, anyone outside my LAN can log in but gets stuck at the character list screen. what should i do?
** One request and two bugs. :) **
Bugs:
1. No spirit healer in deadwind pass. You die in kara….you have no spirit healer to rez with.
2. If you die in Redridge Mountains, you appear in spirit form near the bridge (close to the smithing area). You can still run to corpse, or you can run over the lake to the GY and rez with the spirit healer.
Request:
This is a very very strong request. :)
Can you compile a core that includes the loot quality modifiers?
In other words, give us the ability to modify the rate of drop for greens, blues, etc.
Currently, changing the overall drop rate is a bit of a nuisance since it amps grey trash, and breaks “quest drop” items if the value is over 10. It also seems to not allow the “guaranteed purple” drop from heroic bosses if set around x10.
Here is some patch code from the mangosproject site that allows this:
http://www.mangosproject.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=7349&st=80&start=80
I have found
Well reaper gratz on this rev!!
I have just a lil problem i have not seen a post for this but i cant move my pet around with (eyes of the beast) Hunter skill You r welcome to come to my server and see for ur self if u have the time or some 1 that knows how to fix this problem welcome to msn or email me @:echosixghost@hotmail.com
Thanks for all the help and ur time Have a nice week.
does anyone know why i can’t create TBC characters? i have TBC installed on all machines, even the server, but no one can make TBC chars.
Hi Guys,
This site is fantastic and the tutorials and support are the best I’ve seen after searching for ages. :o)
I have a small question I’m hoping can be answered:
The problem I have is testing or accessing the game/server as my networking skills are not great. Is it possible to have the server running but login to WOW on the same PC as a player to test? I’m guessing not because of the single realmlist.wtf file? If not then I have a second PC on my home LAN. Can I access the server from this PC with an internal IP in the realmlist.wtf file(192.168..etc) or would I have to go out of my LAN and use the server’s external IP to get access?
Thanks, and keep up the great work! :o)
nvm, i figured it out
Is anyone else getting this error when they run the mangosd.exe file:
Some required *.dbc files (1 from 48) not found or not compatible: C:/WoW/Data/dbc/ItemExtendedCost.dbc (exist, but have 13 fields instead of 14) Wrong client version DBC file?
oh, and btw, i have done it with the slashes both ways so i know that is not the problem.
