Reaper Mangos 5225 – Easy WoW 2.3.3 Private Server

Since the situation here has been resolved (Thanks God, although it’s still raining here but well at least i hope there’ll be no floods again), i’ve decided to release another update for Reaper Mangos :D so to those who are wondering whether there’ll be another Mangos update for WoW 2.3.3 here is my answer ;) … and just like before this update contains Project Silvermoon Database and Unified Database so you can switch between them freely (and choose which database suit you best) ;) … other than that i also included several other custom patches (i’m not too sure whether it’s stable or not but i guess you can check it by yourself)

Yay ... fishing

To summarize it … the custom patches that gets added into this version are:

  • Auction House BOT
  • Spell Damage Correction
  • Quality Based Variable Loot Drops
  • Multithreaded Map

And using :

  • Mangos Core 5225
  • Scriptdev2 254
  • Project Silvermoon (PSDB) X7 with changesets 223 applied
  • Unified Database (UDB) with changesets 338 applied

Also i’ve made lots of adjustments / changes / whatever you called it into the reaper-x-mangos so to those who are new into Mangos World can also setup their own WoW Private server easily like function to repair database automatically (just in case your database crashed), better checking, etc and will probably add more feature in the future … and well basically that’s all about it :)

Reaper-X Mangos

Note: I have only tested it on Windows XP SP2 only because i do not have Vista, Windows 2003 Server, Windows 2000, Windows 98 / ME installed

As for the instruction manual to those who are going to perform fresh installation, you can follow below link for the instruction on how to use it (the most important part is the MySQL Installation and Data Extraction)

  • Reaper Mangos Installation Guide (the instruction is a little bit outdated because i’ve made lots of changes into the reaper-x-mangos and i’ll update it later or will rewrite it) … but you do not need to worry because basically the installation instruction is just the same :)
  • Instruction on how to use Auction House BOT (look at the Using Data Restored from my normal Mangos release or other release section, step number 9, i’m sorry that is from the old release and i’ll make sure to rewrite it again later to provide better explanation)
  • as for activating other feature such as Quality Based Variable Loots and MultiThreaded Maps, you can take a look at mangosd.conf directly

And to those who wants to upgrade from Reaper Mangos 5116 into this version, all you have to do is just run the reaper-x-mangos and choose to upgrade it (i’ve decided to merge it into one file to make future changes easier) … but make sure to create backup first before doing it, and to create a backup all you have to do is just choose option number 2 and the backup file will be saved under backup folder in reaper-eazy-mangos directory :)

Important Files :

or if you prefer a smaller version (because you don’t have fast connection speed), you can also use .NET Framework 2.0 or .NET Framework 3.0

Download:

Reaper Mangos 5472 has been released. Grab the new version instead ;)

Updated Reaper-X Mangos that include new option to install / remove Custom Vendors on Stormwind and Orgrimmar

Note: To use it you just need to download the updated file and extract it into reaper-eazy-mangos directory to overwrite it, and you’re all set but please note that the custom vendors has been tested only with Reaper Mangos 5225

Mangos Custom Vendors

Optional Download:

And finally if you get a virus alert from your Antivirus saying that reaper-x-mangos.exe is a Trojan, Suspicious File, etc … you can ignore that message, i guarantee that file is clean and that is a false alert / alarm generated by your antivirus (i have Kaspersky 7, NOD32 v3 and AVG Free installed on my machine and always make sure that everything here is clean) … and as a side note, AVG previously marked that file as virus but i send them an email message saying that is a false alert and received a reply from them in just 1 day (if you want i can post their reply here) :)

p.s If you would like to share your extracted DBC Files (from WoW 2.3.3 other than enUS), VMaps and Maps (from WoW 2.3.3 Client any region because it’s impossible for me to upload it), by uploading it to your favorite file sharing website, i’d be delighted to put the link here for other to download. And all you have to do is just leave a comment on where you’ve uploaded that file ;) … or if you know some other Mangos tools that might be useful to those who use Mangos, it’d be great if you could post some more info about it and where to get it :D

Okay now time to get some rest … because i haven’t sleep since yesterday :D

    I have updated from 5116. Had no problems there
    Anyways. I have deleted all files and I’m going to reinstall WoW tomorrow morning for a fresh Reaper-x install. I’m going to bed now cause in Holland it is almost 01:00 O’clock.
    Bye bye

  2. fraksken said Feb 17, 2008 at 6:50 am

    BTW: The GB DBC files, I uploaded here:
    http://rapidshare.com/files/92470880/DBFilesClient.rar

    The rest of the maps and vmaps, I’m uploading here: http://rapidshare.com/users/38S1XZ

    This is of version 2.3.3

  3. imnotleet said Feb 17, 2008 at 6:39 am

    Hey Reaper-X,

    I really love your work =) I hope you keep it up. I have a question regarding the auction bot, I want to know how can I delete all the information in the database regarding the auctions the bot is having, because I plan not to use the auction bot anymore.

    Thanks in advance.

  4. fraksken said Feb 17, 2008 at 6:38 am

    Nice release!
    However, I can’t find the reaper-x-mangos.bat inside the reaper-eazy-mangos folder. Am I correct that it’s missing? Will it be seperatly downloadable?

    I con’t care for the conf bug, I don’t use that tool to conf it …

    Thanks

  5. Reaper-X said Feb 17, 2008 at 6:32 am

    Thanks Osmenthe :) .. btw i’ll make sure to get enough rest for the next release in order to avoid mistake like this again lol

  6. Osmenthe said Feb 17, 2008 at 6:21 am

    I applied the workaround for the ‘Rate.Drop.Items’ issue and it works. I didn’t see a big difference until I hit 10x in some fields, but to be honest I like being able to control the item drops in more detail this way. Something to think about in future releases…

    Thanks again Reaper and good to see you back!

  7. Reaper-X said Feb 17, 2008 at 6:20 am

    # Harold

    Could you tell me from which version are you upgrading from ? and did you choose the config editor too ?

    as a side note actually i’ve decided not to use the default username anymore since most people want to create a public server and using the default username and password supplied (mangos/mangos) would cause problem :)

    # Everyone who gets the rate problem

    try redownloading the updated batch file or you can edit the mangosd.conf manually :)

    # Saktron

    Actually since i never play on official server i dont know whether the spawns rate at specific area is too low or not :(

  8. Saktron said Feb 17, 2008 at 5:45 am

    Thanks for the info Osmenthe.

    I always wonder if you could. Last night I formated my test server and forgot to load WoW before loading the new Reaper-X. But everything seem to be working ok.

    I just don’t get rid of my older stuff and over the years I still enough stuff to build 3 spare computers of slower speeds.

    Also, has anyone else noticed that the spawns are really low in areas? Family member told me some of the quest were not working and the spawns were low in the Draenei newbie area.

    Just wanted to say thank you to Reaper, this is alot of work and most seem not to think about that.

  9. Harold said Feb 17, 2008 at 5:40 am

    ps When I use “Mangos” as username ( like for mangos@localhost) I get an error at the weather test.

  10. Harold said Feb 17, 2008 at 5:36 am

    Hi There
    Thanks for the new release.
    I got this problem after updating.
    Mangos and Realmd can not connect to database anymore ( acces denied for user ‘mangos@localhost’).
    When I check MySQL it says that the Current user is: root@localhost.
    reaper-x-mangos.exe asks: What Username would like to use for mysql acces?
    If you do not know what to write press enter.
    Option 1: The username shall be root.
    I did not get an error message from MySQL on the weather test so I press (N).
    No I Back-up my Mangos Character Data. all ok
    When I choose Upgrade and used Silvermoon database I get Error 1049 Unkown database mangos/scriptdev2/characters.
    I use restore mangos Character Data and exit.
    Realmd and MAngos still can not connect because of ( acces denied for user ‘mangos@localhost’).

    Option 2: I shall fill in no username and just press enter. All ok until upgrade and then the same Error 1049 Unkown database mangos/scriptdev2/characters.

    What to do? Will a fresh installation help or is there an easier way?
    Sorry for my long comment but I am Dutch and if I don’t tell the whole story step by step I can’t understand what I am writing myself :-P

  11. Osmenthe said Feb 17, 2008 at 5:29 am

    @Saktron

    It works just fine that way (and saves a heck of a lot of space on the server), I would run that way myself except my server is the only PC in the house, so it’s just easier to leave my WoW on the server.

    I’m a PowerPC MAC-tard.

  12. Reaper-X said Feb 17, 2008 at 5:27 am

    Hello everyone, well it seems i made a mistake during the regex operation used when replacing the mangosd.conf (if you’re using reaper-x-mangos to adjust the config file) and i’m really sorry for this and it’ll be fixed in next release (or i’ll upload a fixed reaper-x-mangos again)

    to fix it you’ll need to open mangosd.conf and search for

    # Drop rates
    # Default: 1

    and replace any value that use Rate.Drop.Items.* with these


    Rate.Drop.Items = 1
    Rate.Drop.Items.Quality.Poor = 1
    Rate.Drop.Items.Quality.Common = 1
    Rate.Drop.Items.Quality.Uncommon = 1
    Rate.Drop.Items.Quality.Rare = 1
    Rate.Drop.Items.Quality.Epic = 1
    Rate.Drop.Items.Quality.Legendary = 1
    Rate.Drop.Items.Quest = 1

    noob ur ReaperMangos5116.exe is infected with trojan.win32.agend.feu …. u`re crazy

    as i said before i take virus / security report seriously and my file doesn’t contains any trojan / virus (even i have to send email to AVG previously just to tell them about that false alarm)

    and if you’re wondering, here’s the email response i received from AVG within 1 day after i send them a report

    Dear Sir/Madam,

    Thank you for your email.

    Unfortunately, the previous virus database might have detected the
    mentioned virus on some legitimate applications. We can confirm that
    it was a false alarm. We have immediately released a new virus update
    that removes the false positive detection on this file. Please update
    your AVG and check your files again.

    We are sorry for the inconvenience.

    Best regards,

    Zbynek Paulen
    AVG Technical Support

    And if you still dont trust me, feel free to send the file directly to your Antivirus vendor so they can check it directly (because i have 3 Antivirus already installed on my computer) ;)

    # Hatter

    DBC Link fixed, thanks for the report :D

  13. Osmenthe said Feb 17, 2008 at 5:26 am

    Well it looks like the mangos is not ‘calling’ for that variable in the mangosd.conf file (for Rate.Drop.Items).

    Most likely an omitted/REM’d line in the core code before it was compiled. Heck could even have been a typo.

    Prolly have to wait until the next release for a fix. Unless I can get my slimy little hands on Reaper’s source…

  14. Saktron said Feb 17, 2008 at 5:15 am

    Does anyone know if you really need to have World of Warcraft loaded on you computer you have your server loaded on?

    I keep a backup of the DBC and maps folders of the current release of WoW and just copy it to my reaper-x folder called “data”. Then change the path in mangos.cof file.

    It seem to work ok. Has anyone else ever not installed WoW on there game server?

  15. Violation said Feb 17, 2008 at 5:13 am

    @Osmenthe & Senty

    Hi Guys! Just wanted to say that I am seeing the same thing with the Drop rate in the mangos.conf. You get a few instances of the item drop line and even if you remove the others, leaving just one, it seems to have no effect.

    I even tried removing the ’s’ from the word “items” in case it was a typo in the config but no joy.

    I guess there is something fundamentally wrong with this particular variable, hence why it is initially created so many times?

    Once that is sorted, this will be an absolutely awesome release (not that it’s not already awesome) :D

  16. Osmenthe said Feb 17, 2008 at 4:09 am

    @Hatter

    are you extracting ENUS or ENGB?

    I place all the DBC extraction files (copy/paste) in my ‘..\world of warcraft\data\EN(xx)\’ folder and haven’t had a problem.

    What errors are you getting when you try to extract?

  17. Osmenthe said Feb 17, 2008 at 4:04 am

    @senty

    Just tested it. Money scales perfectly. went from 0-500 in 10x increments. Worked fine.

    Items on the other hand are not. Mangosd is not seeing the setting in the Config file for ‘Rate.Drop.Items’

    I set it from 0 – 100 and there was never a change in the average amount of loot. This could be a couple things, but I’m leaning toward a Mangos ‘core’ issue.

    If I come up with something I will let everyone know.

  18. Hatter said Feb 17, 2008 at 3:58 am

    DBC link is dead. It wouldn’t really be a problem if i could get the extractor to work, but it always gives an error when i try to extract dbc.

  19. Senty said Feb 17, 2008 at 3:28 am

    @Osmenthe

    Deleted all the ones but one, still having the same problem. Just an idea does the apps convert to 80 or .8, at 80 the drop rates is worst then default.

  20. dave said Feb 17, 2008 at 3:16 am

    Welcome back reaper with yet another quality release, thrilled to see that floods are beginning to recede I have had my eye on that part of the world for awhile

  21. Ooci said Feb 17, 2008 at 3:14 am

    Whenever I run reaper-x-mangos, it just keeps telling me it needs to re-run reaper-x-mangos…what gives?

  22. Mozz said Feb 17, 2008 at 3:11 am

    what gameplay bugs though? is fargodeep working? level12 redemption quest?

  23. Osmenthe said Feb 17, 2008 at 3:10 am

    @senty

    I noticed that the money drop scales accordingly to your settings, but I did notice that the item drop has not changed. I’m going to do some digging and see if I cant figure this out.

    I did notice that using the reaper config puts several entries in the mangos.conf for drop rates. try to manually remove all but one and see if that helps.

    how do i change from public server to something else?

  26. Senty said Feb 17, 2008 at 2:32 am

    Problems changing the drop rate, changed it from 1 to 50, 80 100 and it just gets worse.

    It is set to 100 at the moment but the drops seem to be default.

    Any ideas?

  29. Nero said Feb 17, 2008 at 1:24 am

    Reaper,

    You never fail to outdo yourself. Very well done!

  30. Osmenthe said Feb 17, 2008 at 1:06 am

    @Freze

    I had this problem with one of the earlier rev’s.

    I did some digging and it turned out that my ‘character_queststatus’ table was corrupted. **that was the table that would not load for me**
    sounds like it may be your ‘corpse’ table in the ‘character’ database. Use Sqlyog to give it a look and see if there are any strange entries. (if you have experience with SQL)

    If you have a fresh install I would re-install Mangos and the DB. If you are upgrading, do a character back-up and reinstall fresh. That fixed my issue.

    It’s not just you. It did it for me as well. Easy fix though. I just removed the extra entries and all is well.

    good too hear your alright reaper. :)

    Everything seems too work correctly, but the configure/install exe(reaper-x-mangos.exe) seems too add 6 copies of the rate.drop.items line. Might be an issue with the configure file or it might just be a problem on my computer. easy fix, and it looks good though.

  35. Magik that is darke said Feb 16, 2008 at 9:57 pm

    I am having some difficulties when starting the mangos.exe file. It starts loading and then get to “Loading Corpses” and then a message on a new window says “Mangos.exe has stopped working and needs to close” Running this computer on vista by the way.

    I am running a server for the crew of my ship and I posted a request for a html account request site…I never got any of them to work for some reason. if you have one that works could I get a link please. BTW I love this stuff I am learning so much about sql and batch files, I am currently tring to make a server for Hellgate London. I almost have it, the server crashes when I move in game(I can have 3 people logged in but 1 step and crash) but I owe all to you guys at reaperx thanks again

  37. Taylor said Feb 16, 2008 at 9:25 pm

    Ya i get the “logging into server”thing too but that’s only when im trying to set it up for public use
    and my drop rate isn’t working right

  38. marcus said Feb 16, 2008 at 8:13 pm

  44. Dickincorp said Feb 16, 2008 at 3:59 pm

    I love the work you’ve done, the server works great save for one note. I cannot create a Warrior ‘class’ character, I get the error

    “SQL ERROR: Duplicate entry ‘4-6247′ for key ‘PRIMARY’

    Anyone else have this error?

  45. Saktron said Feb 16, 2008 at 3:50 pm

    I’m up and running without any problems at all.

    I morph alot of the players in my family to gnomes all the time without any errors. I also use (.setvalue 153 image id#) to set new images for my family’s character without any errors or crashing, with both 5116 and 5225 now.

    I am currently running 5116 on one computer and 5225 on another computer as my test server, both accessable from the same realm list without any crashing or errors so far.

    #Chris what id# are you using? I will try is on my servers.

  46. Chris said Feb 16, 2008 at 2:01 pm

    Having lots of crashes with displayid = 0 errors. I think it has to do with morphing.

  47. Shadow said Feb 16, 2008 at 1:44 pm

    thanks for making new releases, I will post about any issues i come across.

  48. Osmenthe said Feb 16, 2008 at 11:56 am

    Up and running and works like a charm! Didn’t even have to re-extract my maps and DBC.

    I really like the new installation interface. Granted I always set up my network manually in SQLyog, but everything else looked spot on!

    If I catch anything in-game I’ll let you know.

    Thanks

  49. Saktron said Feb 16, 2008 at 11:51 am

    Thank you for a new version.

  50. Osmenthe said Feb 16, 2008 at 10:55 am

    Great! Got it DLing now. I’ll let you know if I hit any snags.
