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)

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

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)
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

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

ok but can i install it without doing a whole fresh installation if yes, how?
try using mysql 5.0.x series instead :)
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.0.html
the 5.1 version is still in Release Candidate release, while the 6.0 version is still in Alpha stage
i use mysql version 6.0 with windows XP (though i have both xp and vista on my pc im using some kinda bootmanager, but i use XP atm)
# Gantetsu
If you get that error message that means you didn’t specify the correct root password of your mysql database :)
# Catdog, Lemon and others who are having problem with creating second character
i’ve tried simulating your problem by doing fresh installation (two times, the first one use UDB and the second use PSDB) .. and couldn’t replicate the problem, and i can create second, or third character and access it without problem
could you tell me what is your operating system, and mysql version installed ?
# AlexT
Actually that code is a svn diff and can be used to patch the sourcecode :)
# Aaron
I’d suggest you to get MySQL 5.0.x series instead of MySQL 5.1.x and above series because i haven’t tested that one (mysql 5.0 and mysql 4.1 is the stable version and has been tested on many servers not just for mangos only) ;)
So when I’m on the part of doing the
mysql -u username -p -v -D realmd < realmd.sql
ERROR 1045 : Access denied for user ‘root’@'localhost’ (using password: YES)
Any suggestions on how to get this part to work. I think after this part starts working maybe my mangosd and realmd files will run and connect to server.
@ Catdog, i have the same problem /cry
what instances are working with this?
Dose any one know how can I make this in to a patch file?
Im going to try to make my own compile tx for your help.

Steve

And sorry for duble post but:
Is there “Copyright” on the GM command list so i can change Security lvl. so i make a rank 4 only for “Server Owner”
?

Thanks a lot Reaper “My Friend” – X

Read b4 posting. I use nod 32 and there is no trojen. Its a mistake that some of the anti viruses have send it to you antivirus company and have them scan it and tell you if its a trojen or not.
i just scanned it and so is this one
IN MANGOS 5116 THE REAPER MANGOS FILE IS A TROJEN
what does re-extract mean i want to upgrade so what do you mean by re-extract plz tell me thanks
Can some one tell me how I can set up a npc that will give level ups.
Just want to say thanks again for another great release, noticed a quicker load time when entering world just as a side note. Not sure if this is due to the update or not but Im enjoying it.
Same here – running on Win 2003 Server, no issues yet with 5116 or 5225.
Ben – what is this major update you speak of???
aaron i had the same problem try this first make sure that one thing i rememeber from reaper is everybody should be using mysql 5.1 once that is done go back to command prom type mysql -u root -p that should work oh reaper welcome back to give you an update i in the tesing now with server 2003 no problems so far i have 300 teenagers trying it with at lease 50 to 200 players on all the time
OK figured out what I did wrong. The script must default to localhost and I was trying to install to my production machine without switching from my main desktop (my test machine) to my prod machine so the database was not getting upgraded on the prod machine. I also forgot to copy the new mangosscript.dll file over – used to copying three dll’s and there was the fourth. It seems ok now.
guys, my deep run tram is not working (UDB)…..it is not even on the tracks….anyone know a fix?
also, im worried this will mean the ships and zepps are not working either…can anyone confirm they are working?
on a side note…….there has been a major UDB release tonight….and a major mangos update will follow later tonight….looks like reaper will be busy ;)
I’ll probably ditch my customizations there werent very many single custom level 40 armor vendor in gadget and a few custom newbie items like a big bag and handful of basic 6.5 dps weapons to cover all classes and/or provide about 5gp in sellables for the ones they don’t use.
After trying everything I can think of still getting some creature_questrelation quest not exist errors and then it this error
error loading Mangosscript.dll
I am trying to do a new install with reapermangos 5225. I installed mysql and tested through cmd and it worked. I extracted the maps and moved to C|\wow\Data folder. The problem I run into is when I run reaper-x-mangos.exe it open the cmd window and i type in the path C|\Program Files\MySQl\Mysql server 5.0\bin the window closes and does nothing. It is the corect path to mysql.exe and mysqldump. I also have made sure the firewall is not stoping it . Please help.
all seemed to go fine no errors on the upgrade from 5116 to 5225 except afterward launching Mangosd.exe I have this now
Loading MaNGOS strings…
SQL: SELECT `entry`,`content_default` FROM `mangos_string`
query ERROR: Table ‘mangos.mangos_string’ doesn’t exist
==================================================== 100%
>> Loaded 0 mangos strings. DB table `mangos_string` is empty. Cannot continue.
I’ll analyze it but if it helps anyone else I’m using PSDBx6 and this appears to be x7 so maybe the upgrade expected my 5116 was using PSDBx7? not sure yet just sharing.
And OH yes WB Reaper and Thank You!! May the blessings of LOW water be yours forever!
@ ben: You need to post items before you can bid on them on the AH
(or at least that’s my vision on it)

@ Osmenthe
awesome thxn for the help. much appreciated.
@ Reaper
this is WAY better than ascent. kepp up the good work.
Thanks for the fast reply, reaper. I’m wondering can you apply an anti-cheat patch which prevents memory editors and patch editing. The patch that is located on mangos forum is :
http://www.mangosproject.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=13147
Although it is not stable, can you make an option to enable and disable? That would be great. An patch to level beyond 70 would be great too. It can be found here:
http://www.mangosproject.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=18359
BTW – Reaper you rock! I love all the work you’ve done here.
My biggest wish for this was that the scripts were in place for bosses, and mob pathing (I guess escort quests with events triggered during an escort would fall under that too). Then it would actually be like some of the ‘real’ WoW gameplay.
BUT – I realize that falls under scriptdev and not your work here on Mangos
Thanks for all you do!
LOL thanks I totally blew by that in the config file : / And for some reason didn’t see the above posts till after i submitted mine.
All working now. Thanks!
@Johann
You will need to manually update these lines in your Mangosd.conf file
AuctionHouseBot.AllianceItems = (I use 500)
AuctionHouseBot.HordeItems = (again 500)
AuctionHouseBot.NeutralItems = (I used 200)
