Reaper MaNGOS 5953 with ScriptDev 414|Server Compatible With 2.4.2 (UDB ONLY!)

Hello Everyone! Here is another one of my releases for the Reaper-X-MaNGOS-WoW Developement Project.  In this release I have looked through my previous bugs/errors and have cleaned them out and I am almost positive that they all have been resolved. So if you have any questions comments or concerns please leave us a comment, when you do myself and the community will be glad to assist you!

Updated in this Revision:

  • Completely re-done fishing loot template.
  • Fishing base skill level table added
  • Lots of Black Temple updates
  • Loot added for creatures that are mineable and gatherable
  • Rewards added for quests with quest flags|512 (Quests like Teron Gorefiend I am!)
  • Many quest fixes in general
  • 175 fishing holes added (like school of fish) with loot
  • Instance loot tables updated:
    • Zul’Farrak
    • Sunken Temple
    • Black Rock Depths
    • Dire Maul
    • Black Rock Spire 
  • World drop loot tables for levels 1-34 created (SIGNIFICANT decrease in creature_loot_template size again. All world drop tables are now created. Loot table size before world tables ~950000 rows — after 284594 rows. ~7mB instead of ~22mB)
  • Some 2.4.2 related item changes
  • L70ETC spawns / event included in the DB (still need the ACID script from the ACID team)
  • Fresh Installer Fixed!
  • Map/DBC Extractors Fixed!
  • ACID Included (Means Extra NPC’s and Such Have Been Scripted)
  • MaNGOSD.exe Errors Should Be Fixed!
  • Authentication Bug Should Be Fixed!
  • Vendors/GM Island Vendors Should Work Again if you Enable them by Going Into the Reaper-X-Mangos.bat File.
  • NO MORE EXE’s! I have decided to keep them in Batch format due to complaints about Errors/Trojans.

Shattered Sun Soldiers

REQUIREMENTS:

Custom Vendors Pack

DBC and Maps Extractor:

Just in case the included ad.exe (map extractor) and dbc extractor isn’t working for you (like you keep getting message about maps or dbc file is not compatible), you can try using this one:

DBC and Map Extractor (131KB)

That archive just contain only one file (ad.exe) … and all you have to do is just put it into your WoW installation directory (where wow.exe and launcher.exe can be found) … and delete maps and dbc folder there if exist and then run the new ad.exe … and it’ll extract the maps and dbc files automatically (the output will be in maps and dbc directory)

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 2.4.0

3. Run the reaper-x-mangos.bat inside the reaper-x-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) ;)

MySQL Input Directory

4. Selection Option 1 by pressing “1&Prime on the keyboard and pressing enter.
Note: This will wipe out any previous versions of WoW you have in your database.

Jared ReaperMangos Version of Menu

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 5953 Release:

1. Re-extract vmaps, maps and dbc because this version no longer supports the old World of Warcraft 2.3.3 installation and only supports the new 2.4.2 (YOU MAY SKIP RE-EXTRACTING IF YOUR DBC’S, MAPS, AND VMAPS ARE ALREADY FROM A 2.4.2 CLIENT!)

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.
Upgrade Warning

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!

    Follow the instructions carefully and it will work fine, a thing many people forget is to WAIT after vmaps_simple is finished (or not) until you get press any key to continue message.

    Exactly - it will sort-of look like the vmaps process has finished, but it is quietly going through the split-maps config and making the vmaps folder after the buildings folder has been created. IT TAKES A LONG TIME. Go mow the lawn (or someone else's if you don't have one), then take a nap, then come back and it should be done.

    If you are looking for better instructions for PSDB, there is a new 'how-to' post on the PS website. Longer read but better detailed. Maybe this will help you to include PSDB in your future releases.

    reaper gave us a PS only custom vendor and then didn't give us the PS DB. Ironic?
    Well I did a workaround and got a file to load into the UDB for custom vendors so ill put it up for DL on like filebeam in a sec.

    error 1136 (21s01) as line 24: column count doesn’t match value at row 1.

    I'm having the same error, I think that happens becose in the new SQL Table called npc_vendor there is a new column called ExtendedCost, and the SQL structure of the vendors are build like the old one without that column, I just tried to add it with the mysql query browser steep by steep and just including in the row a ,0), more. And it worked. Lets look the example -->

    INSERT INTO `npc_vendor` VALUES (500000,16677,0,0),(500000,16679,0,0); -->[here i get the Column count dosen't match value count at row 1]

    Ok thats the old structure, i just changed that -->

    INSERT INTO `npc_vendor` VALUES (500000,16677,0,0,0) , (500000,16679,0,0,0); [WooT! it works now!!]

    If you see there is a ",0)" more, why that? becose in the new npc_vendor table there is one more column the ExtendedCost. I think that the solution is just to ad that ,0) in each of all the npc_vendor values but... I dont know if there is some "automatizated" way of doinf this... its kinda "hardcore" to do it with your own hand.

    Hello Oatman,

    Thanks so much for the quick update, I didn't expect that!

    I have a small question though - only started playing with this private server stuff recently. My boyfriend and I have been working on a nice lightweight interface (we find it impossible to play with default Blizz interface - but I digress) since I got my server upgraded to 5951. So my question is, would upgrading it to 5953 mess all our work up? I know new WoW patches often mess stuff up, but I have no idea how these upgrades influence these things..

    Sorry for the silly question, I really have no clue. :) Thanks again!

    Oh and is there a replacement for ".addspw"?

    So, do I HAVE to extract the DBC's, maps, and VMaps or not? In the fresh installation instructions it says to do so, but in the note before is says not to. And if I don't have to, would you recommend still doing so? Thanks, and hoping for a speedy recovery for reaper-x.

    It says "Upgrading from 5953 Release:"

    This IS the 5953 release, no? So do we upgrade from 5953 with this or from 5472?

    Just asking before I mess things up. ^^

    As I understand it, you only have to extract them again if you did not already do it for the 2.4.2 version of WoW. (Like, if you installed the release a few days ago you would already have those folders in their correct version. They did not change.)

    Thanks for the rapid response. The last version I had was 2.3.3 before I was given a trial version of WoW , which got me even more addicted. I HOPE that the quests that were glitching on me before were fixed, I would really like to get my hands on Verdigan's Fist.

    You need to be on a GM account.

    If you have not done so yet, go to the mangosd.exe prompt and type "setgm YOURACCOUNTNAME 3" (without quotes and using the name of the account you use).

    Then, from inside the game you type ".lookup item Verdigan" If it comes up with more than one result you look through them for the fist, because you need the number given.
    Next you type ".additem HEREGOESTHENUMBER" substituting the number you just looked up.
    This should put the item into your inventory. :3

    Hey Oatman.

    I did a fresh install and everything worked fine. But I still get the .0004331map error when starting Mangos. I have tried the new and the old ad.exe. The installation from reaper-x bat worked fine and MySQL and realmd are working fine also. What should I do?

    Hello there,

    First I would like to say Thank you for your help on this project, I have been a silent fan as well as user for a long time now.

    I currently have 5953 installed and working. Just with a few problems... First, I if I create a second character on the same account, the log in screen shows no characters. if I only have one toon, all is fine...

    Second, I cannot attack any of the mobs, anywhere. This means in instances, outside, pre bc as well as bc. Also I cannot interact with any npc's... no flight path guys, no bankers, no quest givers.. they are there, just cant select them or "talk" to them.

    lol other than that.. it seems to be running great:)

    Any help would be greatly appreciated:)

    Jas

    hi, I have a problem:
    In fresh installation I have this error during the 1 step of the reaper-x-mangos...

    error 1045 (28000): acces denied for user '-p(password)@localhost using password: NO

    thyll,

    It looks as though you do not have the correct values for your username and password when you run the reaper exe. The user (usually "root") and the password are what you setup when you installed MySQL.

    thanks Jas...

    but I'm sure, the psw is the same used on the mysql installation and for the user I use the standard "root"...
    It's the first time that I have this problem...

    maybe I need a different version of the mysq? I use the mysql-5.0.51a..

    Thyll,

    5.0 should work fine, but if you want to uninstall it and install the newest, 6.0 is out.

    http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/6.0.html

    Is this install of mySQL 5.0 what you were using previous to the 5953 fresh install of Reaper-X, or is it a fresh install of MySQL as well?

    Do me a favor and open up your command prompt.. Start>Run, type in cmd, hit enter, then type:

    mysql -u root -p

    it should prompt for a password, if so, then enter your password. Then it should say your mySQL version, connection id and such..

    This just shows if your mysql is set up correctly :)

    If it doesnt, post your error here:)

    If mysql is running correctly and you are using the same user and password in the reaper exe as you did in the cmd prompt, then you might try redownloading the batchfiles and trying again, not sure:(

    Did you edit the mangosconfig, realmdconfig and scriptdevconfig files with your username and password for mysql? You have to do it manually now, since the config editor doesnt work in the batch file.

    I updated my MaNGOS from 5472 to this version and None of the quests are working, everything else seems to be perfect though... thoughts?

    At first I was getting a 'gameobject' error, something about the SQL not having the right number of files or something. So I used that MaNGOS database someone posted.. it let me log in, but like I said quests aren't working.

    Also, my accounts transferred but the characters didn't. What do I do?

    As for updating from 5472 straight to 5953, I am not sure. I updated from 5472 to 5951 to 5953.. If I am correct the previous updates only allowed upgrade from the most recent, but I could be wrong.

    Hi Reaper,

    First of all good work, its nice to have a good private wow server.

    I have some questions.

    Im having some little problems in game:

    1 In an Instance all the mobs are comming through the walls to kills us. Normaly they don't ;)

    2 When i have a enchant on my weapon and its glowing. When i use that weapon after that the glow is gone. When i re attach my weapon it glows again. Do jou have any clue what this could be?

    @ Oatman,

    Any chance we can get the vendors back from the 5472 release? Those vendors are the ones I like with all the trainer vendors included. Tried reinstalling 5472, then the custom vendors, then running all the upgrades to this one, and it kinda worked. MOST of the vendors showed up (oh, and I had to modify the GUIDs for all the vendors). Anyway, thanks again for all the hard work.

    any ideas why it wont continue?

    when i ran the ad.exe file, it made a vmaps folder with 2000 something files in it. when i ran makevmaps_SIMPLE it just added more files to the vmaps folder. my vmaps folder now has 3334 files in it. i just ran the extract-map file and it made a map folder so i'm going to try to see if it works

    Maybe you could be of some assistance Reaper... I decided to just do a fresh install of Reaper Mangos 5953 due to my previous version being outdated by a bit. I did all of the extracting and such, but when I try to run "mangosd.exe" i get this message after this nice MANGOS sign is produced:

    World Database: 127.0.0.1:3306;root;mangos;mangos

    Cannot connect to world database 127.0.0.1;3306;root;mangos;mangos

    When I try running "realmd.exe" I get:

    Could not connect to MySQL database at 127.0.0.1: Access denied for 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
    Cannot connect to database

    I checked my mangosd.conf file and found this information (if it helps)
    RealmID = 1
    DataDir = "."
    LogsDir = ""
    LoginDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;mangos;realmd"

    No idea about your first question, but I extracted the commands from the database and posted them here:
    http://forums.reaper-x.com/topic/gm-commands#post-5091
    The list may not be complete, but it's a start. :3

    #Alex P

    The data directory can be anywhere you put your maps and vmaps and dbc folders.
    When you extract the first two using the provided tools these folders are created in the main WoW installation folder and the dbc folder is already in the pack.
    You have to create a 'data' folder (I recommend a subfolder of your Mangos installation) and move the maps, vmaps and dbc folders there, then edit the resulting path into the mangosd.conf file.

    For all those looking for custom vendors:

    I have only been able to get them back one way.

    (WARNING: THIS METHOD IS SOMEWHAT INVOLVED AND REQUIRES DATABASE EDITING. ANYONE UNWILLING OR UNABLE TO DO THIS SHOULD WAIT UNTIL REAPER OR OATMAN RELEASE A FIX TO THE VENDORS)

    BTW this is NOT the GM Island vendors. These are the vendors that were in the 5472 release that were in Stormwind and Orgrimmar.

    1) Backup your characters using the reaper tool

    2) completely delete your database (use SQLyog or other tool, right click on mangos, realmd, characters, and scriptdev2 databases and click drop database)

    3) Download 5472 release and do a fresh install of that release.

    4) in the reaper tool for the 5472 release select the custom stuff and install custom vendors.

    5) Download 5931 release and do upgrade option

    6) Run 5953 upgrade.

    7) ReRun 5953 reaper tool and restore characters.

    8) use SQLyog (or other tool) and go into mangos/creature.

    9) sort by guid

    10)scroll down until you hit the guids that are above 2 million.

    11) all guids that are above 2 million need to be renamed as it causes a guid overflow error. What I did was I started at the first one and renumbered it 500000. the next one was 500001 and so on and so forth.

    12) now when you start your server you should have most if not all of the custom vendors

    Hope this helps you guys get your vendors back.

    Yes, I tried the extract-map.bat and ad.exe by itself, but both consistently crash at exactly 41%. I did some googling and apparently some others are having the exact same problem, but no one seems to be able to figure out why.

    I'm guessing Vista has something to do with it since I hear the Linux version does not have the same problem. :P

    If you are getting the vmap error at mangosd startup, recreate the maps (not vmaps).

    AD.EXE has been updated in this release. So if you created the maps using an earlier version of ad.exe from your 2.4.2, you'll need to do it again using this version.

    This needs maps only, not vmaps.

    yes i did it but i realized after i put that up that none of the creatures in the release for SW or ORG had locations so i got them to work but they weren't spawned and i didn't feel like spawning everything

    @Elderslayer:

    Custom vendors require data in three tables. Creature, npc_vendor and creature_template. If you didn't backup your old custom vendors they could be gone from this database.

    I try to keep a batch of SQL scripts just for creating my personal custom vendors like my level 40 armor greens vendor in gadgetzan looks like this. http://www.reaper-x.com/2008/03/23/reaper-mangos-5472-easy-wow-private-server-for-world-of-warcraft-233/#comment-88563

    The other question you had was regarding web pages. I'm thinking there are several out there and they include step by steps and seems like the main thing to do would be opening forwarding port 8080 on your router firewall and desktop firewall. This is a risk you should take carefully, if you have never run a public web site before. just as we forward ports 8085 and 3724 for realmd to make them publicly visible.

    The only other thing is to configure your web page so it knows your mysql login and password so it can update/insert people into your database.

    Hope that helps. I've been gone playing the new dailies in quel'danas on retail wow if anyone was wondering where I'd gone. I have to catch up and install this latest version but glad to see you folks are all still plugging away at the ole Mangos. Thanks Reaper / Oatman!

    Ah - after some more reading - If I read this correctly, it is only set to run with the unified database (UDB) not the project silvermoon (PSDB) with all the custom vendors. Still if you know your custom vendors insert SQL script code as in my prior post you can insert some custom vendors into any database pretty much.

    After restoring my characters I cant loging myself getting that old unknown column Sha_Pass_Hash error in the field list trying to log in; must be some difference with the old PSDB I was running before.

    This is for everyone with the following error when running mongosd.exe
    World Database:

    127.0.0.1;3306;root;mangos;mangos
    ERROR:Could not connect to MySQL database at 127.0.0.1: Access denied for user ‘root’@'localhost’ (using password: YES)
    ERROR:Cannot connect to world database 127.0.0.1;3306;root;mangos;mangos

    To correct this, open your mangosd.conf file in wordpad and find this section:

    RealmID = 1
    DataDir = "."
    LogsDir = ""
    LoginDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;mangos;realmd"
    WorldDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;mangos;mangos"
    CharacterDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;mangos;characters"
    MaxPingTime = 30
    WorldServerPort = 8085
    BindIP = "0.0.0.0"

    Now, where it says "127.0.0.1;3306;root;mangos;realmd/mangos/characters",
    change the word after root to your password!!!
    (ie 127.0.0.1;3306;root;PASSWORD;realmd)
    If you have a further problem with a DataDir after this is fixed, simply reopen your mangosd.conf file and change the portion stating (DataDir = ".") to where your data folder is in your World of Warcraft folder (ie ataDir = "C:/Program Files/World of Warcraft/data")

    Now, if you had the first problem with opening mangosd.exe, you will probably have a similar problem when opening realmd.exe. To fix this open realmd.conf in notepad, scroll to the bottom of the document. Find this insert (LoginDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;mangos;realmd") to fix this do the same as before, replacing the first mangos with your password (ie LoginDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;PASSWORD;realmd"

    If you edited the file yourself, then I tip my hat to you. If it is the same SQL file I have, then I have the file that spawns all the vendors if you would like a copy. Just needs to be edited and I don't have the time to do it. Send me an email at airman_dopey@comcast.net if you want it. And if you'd be willing to send me the other one that would be great.

    @Glenn: further up I saw someone said the currently included script for gmisland did not match the new file format. The database table for that third insert in the vendors.sql included insert statements where each items was missing the last column which could be added as just a 0.

    I did this by doing a search replace on that third insert text and replaceing
    ),(
    with
    ,0),(
    Then it seemed to work fine. If not you could paste it into SQLYog and run it there which was actually how I got the 5000 rows inserted message.

    What they need is a way to add all weapon proficiencies with a single command like .learn all_weaponsk or all_armortypes

    @Craig 318

    Do not run the restore characters script after you upgraded to a newer repack. It will corrupt your db.

    Pretty much what is happening is that when you are using the character backup command, you are backing up the data ONLY for that same release version.

    Using the upgrade tool should properly migrate your characters data to the newer release. =)

    @ reggie and anyone else with a similar problem

    whenever you get this error message :

    Check existing of map file ‘.maps/0004331.map’: not exist!
    Correct *.map files not found in path ‘.maps’ or *.vmaps/*vmdir files in ‘.vmaps’. Please place a *.map/*.vmap/*.vmdir files in appropriate directories or correct the DataDir value in the mangosd.conf file.

    It means that MaNGOS is looking for your data directory file.

    Open up your MaNGOS Config file and look for
    Datadir "."

    change it to:
    Datadir "C:\WoW\data"
    or to your [data] folder where you keep your maps, vmaps, and dbc files. I have mine at C:\WoW\data in this example

    If you do this and continually receive this error message again you might need to re-extract your maps, vmaps, and dbc files again. Hope this helps

    Hi, this is my first attempt at creating my own private server. I've read all the posts above (along with a couple other guides posted on this site) and managed to get past a few bugs that have already been stated. My issue now is when I run mangosd.exe it gives me the following error:

    This is a different 'missing' file from the one listed by other people. I already manually changed the config to the correct directory, the file itself is just missing. I've run the extract-map.bat properly atleast 3 times, and the file is still missing. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

    hey guys. i seem to have conquered some of the problems i was having. if anyone is having trouble connecting to the world database when they run mangos.exe well you have to go into mangos config,realmd config, and scriptdev2 config reaper explains what to do near the end after he tells you to try and run mangos.

    that solved my problem except iv come across a new problem. i try to run mangos.exe and i start loading the server but then it says this.

    Regarding the custom vendors...

    In addition to the "ExtendedCost" column in npc_vendors...

    It looks like the `creature` table added the column "spawnMask" which looks like it can take a value of "1", dropped columns "spawn_position_x" (and Y and Z) and "spawn_orientation"

    I restored the old tables, loaded the custom vendor rows, altered the columns, exported the rows again and imported into the new data.

    I've been wondering why items with id higher then 35000 can't be add to player. It says me invalid ID, but the items are from version 2.4.2? :| I'm speaking for items like Brutal Gladiator for example. If someone can answer this please to do it so.

    ok sorry for the 2 posts but im gonna do it simple for those who dont undertand this quite good :
    RealmID = 1
    DataDir = "."
    LogsDir = ""
    LoginDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;mangos;realmd"
    WorldDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;mangos;mangos"
    CharacterDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;mangos;characters"
    MaxPingTime = 30
    WorldServerPort = 8085
    BindIP = "0.0.0.0"
    1. Go to your Mangos.conf file
    2. Find the stuff above
    3. Set ur MySQL password Like this :

    root;PASSWORD;mangos" Note: you will have to set ur MySQL password on realmd,Mangos,Characters

    4 run mangos.exe :)

    5. and if you got problems after that above go back to this and change your DataDir :
    DataDir = "." "127.0.0.1;3306;root;mangos;realmd" <--

    TO :
    "127.0.0.1;3306;root;PASSWORD;realmd"

    i hope this helps :)

    When extracting maps make sure that
    #1 double check to see if you are using the most recent map extractor, Ive seen some people have problems with the older one
    #2 you are extracting maps, vmaps, and dbc files AFTER upgrading your client to 2.4.2
    #3 In some rare instances, check your file permissions and make sure you have admin rights to the files.

    Its also possible that your computer is having trouble with the map extractor. As a means of troubleshooting, try using the map extractor on another computer with 2.4.2 installed and transfer those map files to your current data map folder. This will help to see if its a problem with your map extractor or map files.
    Is this a fresh install? or an upgrade of a previous version?

    Daggo, not long after i changed the version number on the .bat file i encountered a directory problem in the mangosdconfig.txt because the mangosd.exe couldn't find the data folder. So i edit the file as you said and magos.exe found the data directory.

    Thanks a bunch for your post and i am happy to say that the server is now running thanks to you two ^ ^

    @ Qwerdo
    The included vendors .sql script is outdated and will not properly load. Ever since 2.4.1 the data tables for npc vendors was altered and because of this will not load into the newer database. (Thats essentially what the error you are receiving is saying) We will just have to wait for another vendors sql script updated for the 2.4.2 database to come out. You may however, do a tedious workaround like some have to somehow migrate it into the newer database. The alternative would be to learn a few GM commands and create vendors in your realm, its not very hard and fun!

    @aaron
    Make sure you used your map, vmap, and dbc extractors after updating to 2.4.2. Also, the included dbc files in this repack should work just fine. Oh, and make sure your mangos config file is set up nice and properly. LoginDatabase, worldDatabase, and CharactersDatabase, and datadir all configured properly.

    Looks like your mangos db is missing the 'mangos.mangos_string' table. see if this works. Iv uploaded the table to http://www.2shared.com/file/3361578/ec3919cf/mangos_string.html
    download it to your desktop. Manually import it to your database using SQLyog (its what I use). To do that, open up SQLyog and when you see your databases on the left colums, highlight your 'mangos' db, then DB>Restore from SQL Dump, then navigate to the file, and then execute. lets see what happens.

    This is a fresh install. The extractor im using was the extractor from the most recent mangos. Im already updated to 2.4.2. I have admin permissions for the files. the only this is i dont have another computer to try the extractor on. One other thing the map that the error says doesnt exist is in the map folder.

    just as I expected actually, you are missing a bunch of needed tables in your mangos db. You most likely will need to do a fresh install of the repack in order to get ALL of the tables inserted into the database correctly. Hopefully that should solve the issue. Your configuration seems fine so far, you just need to redo the mangos install. btw, what version of sql are you using?

    @Brett
    Try turning expansion to 'off' in your mangos config file. see what happens. If you look in your map folder can you actually see the file?Do you have Burning Crusade installed on your machine? Also double check your [datadir = '.'] in your config file.

    @Daggo,
    Thanks for all your help It's been very useful.
    I'm not sure why it didn't include all the tables with the upgrade.. So now I just have to backup my characters database then do a fresh install and then restore my characters and I should be fine to go..

    I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks.

    @Daggo,
    the Fresh install went without a hitch. the only problem that i have now.. I've restored my characters db, When I goto login it says the details are when.. i went into sqlyog and the characters are there... all of them So I went back into mangosd.exe and tried to change the gm lvl on my accounts and it told me they werent found.. so my guess is that they're not being restored properly.. any clue how to fix that?

    @Craig318
    Was your characters backup from an earlier release? What I am guessing what happened was that when you restored your characters to your db, it failed to restore your accounts along with it. This is still fixable, you will need to recreate your username and password in your mangos screen. Then log in to your MYSQL and go to your character.characters table. From there, you need to match up your characters to your appropriate UserID.

    hmmm.. im scratching my head at this one. Dunno, maybe just for kicks, how about moving your data folder somewhere apart from your reaper-x folder, say C:\wow\data.
    I also recall seeing someone with a similar problem on the forums.

    woah, ive never seen that before! Did you restore your characters using the Reaper-tool? If you did, (fresh install again, sorry)try to restore your characters from an sql dump directly using your SQLyog. your backup-char.sql should work. Then (again) crate a new username/password in mangos and then match up the characters to your accountID's.

    Oh, sorry if I seemed a little confusing. I diddnt mean to put your data folder in your 'C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Data'. Just somewhere very simple as in create a folder in your C: named 'wow'. So your datadir would look like this:
    DataDir = “C:\wow\data”
    I doubt that would solve the issue directly, just wanted to make sure all the file permission issues were out of the way.

    Yeah, I restored them using the reaper tool. (Of course something astronomical happens only to me during this shitty ass week lol) Ok, I'll do another fresh install then I'll restore using sqlyog, Then I'll create a new username and pass.. Does it have to be a new one or can i use my old one? I'll get back to ya in about 5-10 mins give or take.

    awesome job reaper, but i do have some issues i'd like to bring to attention:
    first off the attack range of mobs is WAY too close, like when i try to back up just a little the mob follows and sticks really close to me like glue..any solution to this?

    and secondly, which is not that important to me, but would still like some input on it, is why aren't there any mobs in the Kil'Jaeden raid on sunwell isle? do i need to complete the prereq. quests first for the mobs to appear so i can run that instance and witness the events?

    gotta say though, i am impressed with the improved quest and npc scripting..good job! :)

    Ok I'm having a few problems with the server and I don't know whats wrong.

    1st, some of the quests don't acknowledge that certain steps are being completed.

    2nd, certain parts of the quests aren't even appearing, mostly npc corpses and stuff like that.

    3rd, combat doesn't end till like 5 seconds after I kill the enemy, not that bad but kind of annoying.

    4th, many many enemies are like glitched under the ground. You can see there names, and only the top of them walking around.

    5th, and last a lot of npcs and enemies that patrol freeze in place and then like teleport far away. You can't talk to them while they are frozen because the game registers them as walking.

    Any help on any of these would be greatly appreciated. And keep up the good work.

    ok im sorry but wtf do u expect its a fake wow server basically, it won't be perfect and if ur not happy then make one urself seriously.
    and if your getting glitched under the ground npc's then enable vmaps in mangosd.conf

    make sure your datadir is set to the correct place to where your vmap folder is
    if its just inside your reaper folder then make it say datadir "." with the period inside
    either that or u need to use the updated ad.exe

    Go into your mangos config folder and change your Datadir="." to Datadir="C:\[to your data files]" maps, vmaps, and dbc files.

    @Mixudjinn
    Restoring the full database may take some time depending on your processor speed. And there are some points where it just sits there for a while (no biggie). If it seems very sluggish, then freeing up some user processes/ram before running the script may increase performance.

    @Weiss 935
    There are a few howtos on this site that will show you how to create a lan party. I have mine set up this way:
    http://www.reaper-x.com/2008/02/04/how-to-set-up-public-wow-server/
    Its where my realmlist is set to my External IP address and port forwarded to my realmd, mangosd, Sql server.

    @djosh
    This isn't so much a Reaper-x Repack problem as it is more of a Universal Database and MaNGOS team scripting problem. UDB are the guys who actually do the quests and such and the MaNGOS are the gys who brings everything to life. They dedicate their time and talents to bring us this game as close to the original Blizzard servers as possible. Of course many things aren't going to be perfect but some things are manageable. Reaper brings us a wonderful easy to use package compilation of all the necessary files and databases we need to get things started.

    Also, make sure that you have ScriptDev2 working properly. Go into your ScriptDev2 config file and input your username and password into:
    ScriptDev2DatabaseInfo="127.0.0.1;3306;root;[PASSWORD];scriptdev2"
    and start up mangos to see if it loads properly. (You will see it near the end.)
    If you have problems with NPC's/creatures walking through walls, then enable vmaps, and Line of Sight in your mangos config
    vmap.enableLOS = 1
    vmap.enableHeight = 1
    It will eat up more of your processor but can solve many issues.

    Yes, AH bot works in this version. First you need to create an account for your bot. Then by using SQLyog navigate into your characters.characters table to find out the GUID and Account . Put these numbers into your mangos config file:
    AuctionHouseBot.Account = [Account number]
    AuctionHouseBot.GUID = [Guid Number]
    AuctionHouseBot.NoMail = 0
    AuctionHouseBot.AllianceItems = 1000
    AuctionHouseBot.HordeItems = 1000
    AuctionHouseBot.NeutralItems = 400

    Next, set the number of alliance/horde/neutral items that will spawn in eash AH. There are also many other configuration to tweak your AH settings, but this is a short simple way of getting things started.

    Relaying this to this page as well since I noticed someone had this issue here:

    For those that receive:

    Loading game object templates…
    Error in game object_template tables, probably sql file format was updated (there should be 33 fields in sql).

    I found that it was me mistyping or not filling out the installation/update questions. I was assuming it auto filled the defaults into it but it does not. Once I filled them in manually all was well!

    I talking about these questions:
    (All you need to do is type what the most likely name is or your custom name if you did it differently)

    What is your MySQL database USERNAME ? (Most likely “root”)

    What is your database PASSWORD ?

    What is your World/Mangos Database Name ? (Most likely “mangos”)

    What is your Characters Database Name ? (Most likely “characters”)

    What is your Realmd Database Name ? (Most likely “realmd”)

    What is your ScriptDev2 Database Name ? (Most likely “ScriptDev2″)

    There is an easier way to see your GUID and Account numbers. Create your AH bot character and login with him.Also make sure you have set GM level 3 for that character. Inside the game type:
    '.pinfo'
    It will show you misc. information about your current player. It will also show you your Guid and account. Hope that helps.

    SQLyog is a program you can use to directy edit your database. Its a powerful tool and can also be used to import/export .sql scripts (such as the current vendors script). heres the download
    http://www.webyog.com/en/downloads.php
    Once opened, you will be able to see your databases and the tables information inside of each.

If you use Quice, you can go to "characters" tab and it will tell you the account and GUID for that character....and all characters you have created (if you need that for some reason...) Thanks though ^_^! What i need to know now is how do you USE the AH bot? do they spawn somewhere?

    Im not sure quite what you are asking. All the AH bot does is it runs passively through mangos to automatically load your auction houses. You dont need the character logged in the game for it to work, nor is there a 'bot' in game which contains all the items. Just find your local Auction House guys in each major city and it should be loaded. You will notice that the seller would be the name of your created AH bot character.
    Btw, thanks for the Quice idea. I havent had the chance to use quice but now im very excited to try it out =).

    The GM vendors in this repack release will not properly load because the script is out of date. Its incompatible with 2.4.2. What you can do is this.
    Download the latest .sql script that Firane provided in his post from:
    http://filebeam.com/24cee7fa8ca67c7f85df85e18f5e88b0
    This is how I did it. extract the contents of the zip. Then open it up in a notepad, you will see a bunch of jibberish (code). Open up your SQLyog and copy all of the content from the notepad and paste it into the 'query' box. Right click > Execute query > Execute All Queries. You will most likely recieve a bunch of error messages. The messages indicate that the vendors are unable to spawn in their proper location but at least they are loaded into your database for you to spawn wherever you like ingame. I would recommend waiting for the next repack for the custom vendors, but if you really really want them. This is sort of a ghetto way to get them in. Also, if anyone successfully found a better way to get vendors in, please share.

    @djosh
    Im guessing you are using windows vista. It is definitely a file permission setting in your realmlist.wtf file. Right click the file and select properties. Navigate to the 'security' tab. Select your username from the 'Group or user names:' box and hit 'Edit..." another dialogue box will pop up. again select your username and under the 'Permissions for users' area, hit Full controll allow check box. This will give any user full control over the file. That should do it.

    Also a quick way to figure your ip address would be to go Start> run , and then type in 'cmd' (no quotes) then in the command prompt type 'ipconfig'. It will shou you info on your network devices. note: in vista you need to type 'cmd' in the start > search bar.

    @Mixudjinn
    Ive heard that many have had issues with sql 6.0 in the past. I havent used it personally (yet) so I dont really know. I recommend installing 5.0, or 5.1. Granted it doesnt have all the bells and whistles that 6.0 does but will do the job just fine if you are using it only for mangos. 6.0 seems like overkill to me at the moment. Its possible this may be the issue. The install shouldnt take nearly that long even on an older cpu. How high is your cpu/memory utilization before and during the install?

    Seriously, is there a way to dial down the aggro? I've seen mobs charge me when I was considerably further away in this recent repack than 5472. Also, none of the mobs who can use magic do so. I recently defeated the Collector and his 2 cronies, including a mage, and the mage didn't even throw 1 fireball like she did in repack 5472. Is there a way to change this as well? I almost felt guilty in how easily I dropped this bunch of Defias goons.

    The process I provided will only input the vendors into the database FOR YOU TO SPAWN ingame. Its because the script is inconsistent with the current version concerning the initial spawning point of the vendors. Therefore, my method will NOT spawn all the vendors to start with but will require you to manually '.npc add' the vendors ingame. Its a crude way to get vendors in but if you really want them without waiting for the next repack, this is an alternative. (Or until I find am up-to-date vendors script)

    THE FIX FOR VENDORS !!!

    Download this file and extract the contents to your Reaper-x-mangos folder and overwrite the previous vendors.sql. Then run the script from the reaper mangos tools.

    We give gratitude to FIRANE who provided us with the script!

    ******************************************

    @Firane
    ok this is the tweak I did. After a clean install I noticed that the .sql script you provided us has many of the guid's overlapping with the clean install database tables in 'creatures'. So I altered the guid's to input from 97085 to 97243 and also deleted the rows 54-49999 which were inneccesary for the script. (looks like you extracted your whole npc_vendors table by accident lol. This eliminated all duplicate errors and ive tested it on two of my realms, one clean and one chuck full. works both ways. =) Thanks for your help bro!

    Great job once again!

    Everything working great, except a few quest. For example, the event in BFD to open the door to boss doesn't work.

    NPC's will stop and talk, you have to follow them around.

    Any idea on how to fix this?

    Is it possible to save your progress within a raid instance so that when I restart MaNGOs the next time I can pick up where I left off (kind of like on the retail servers)?

    @JesseWVU
    The best way to get the vendors in is by doing this:

    #1 Backup your current characters database
    #2 Go in to your C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQLServer5.x\data\mangos, and delete ALL of the contents within that mangos folder.
    #3 Fresh install using the Reaper-x-mangos tool
    #4 Restore characters
    #5 Run vendors script

    I noticed that when the script is run a second time, that is when you will receive a duplicate error. Maybe we should work on the script to 'replace' or 'remove' the current entries before insterting the data into the tables. Ill look into it.

    So walking around in the building I can place the vendors by typing:

    Okay, on to my question...

    I'm golden on the install and running of the program, but when I enter the "create account password" command in Mangosd, it gives me the following error:
    SQL Error: Unknown column 'sha_pass_hash' in 'field list'.
    I'm really stumped on how to fix this, and I'd appreciate any advice you guys could offer.
    Thanks in advance.

    Ah, wait, I figured it out. Just had to get a new version of realmd.sql and I'm up and running.

    However, now I get to the character creation screen, roll one up, hit create, it goes through the process, and then leaves me at the character selection screen with nothing. My just-created toon doesn't show up.

    If you want latest Mangos and ScriptDev2 you can always update source with TortoiseSVN and compile using C++. Latest atm is 6041 and 424. New patches comes almost every day, but i can't see any point installing whole server that often. Once in about 3 or 4 weeks is enough for me.
    But still, Reaper and Oatman are doing great job. Packs are always working good and easy to install. Just read instructions carefully and there isn't any problems.

    My 5 cents :P (just bored, too hot to play =) )

    @ Riven the only way i know how to change stats is to edit the armor that i have on with SQLyog. it is very easy to use, you do have to look up what some of the values mean to get the right stat to change. but it's fun experimenting :)

    Well, I have previously made a Mangos Server on an old one but dropped it, when there was no updates.. but now i'm back and making this update but I am having trouble with this one thing..

    WORLD: VMap support included. LineOfSight:0, getHeight:0
    WORLD: VMap data directory is: ./vmaps
    WORLD: VMap config keys are: vmap.enableLOS, vmap.enableHeight, vmap.ignoreMapId
    s, vmap.ignoreSpellIds
    Check existing of map file ‘./maps/0004331.map’: not exist!
    Correct *.map files not found in path ‘./maps’ or *.vmap/*vmdir files in ‘./vmap
    s’. Please place *.map/*.vmap/*.vmdir files in appropriate directories or correc
    t the DataDir value in the mangosd.conf file.

    and NO, I'm not stupid I have set the directory path to where my data is.. I was in WoW Main folder and both the ad and extract-map files create map files in the "map" folder but none in the "vmap" folder, any know as to why it comes up with this? This is the sole reason as to why it has errors.. if i get this file to make files in "vmap" id be right to go..

    Hey everyone, first of all id like to say great work to everyone who is working on these private server releases, i have been using them for a while and had no issues at all until now, unfortunately hehe but even still great job :D

    My problem is that when i start mangos it says that a certain map file is invalid or outdated

    WORLD: VMap support included. LineOfSight:1, getHeight:1
    WORLD: VMap data directory is: data/vmaps
    WORLD: VMap config keys are: vmap.enableLOS, vmap.enableHeight, vmap.ignoreMapId
    s, vmap.ignoreSpellIds
    Map file 'data/maps/0004331.map' is non-compatible version (outdated?). Please,
    create new using ad.exe program.
    Correct *.map files not found in path 'data/maps' or *.vmap/*vmdir files in 'dat
    a/vmaps'. Please place *.map/*.vmap/*.vmdir files in appropriate directories or
    correct the DataDir value in the mangosd.conf file.

    i used the map extractor that was included with this release, how can i overcome this problem? is there a more up to date version of the map extractor or something? eveything has worked fine up till this point on and now im stuck lol

    Just upgraded from 5472 to the 5953....everything works, but the realm I had under the old along with all my characters are gone. Tried to go back in & run the reaper x-mangos.exe to reconfigure, & that option is not there anymore. I tried to copy & paste over the characters.sql & realmd.sql from the 5472 to the 5953 & that didn't do it. Copied & pasted the Scriptdev2 file from the old 5472 folder to the new 5953 folder as well & that didn't help. Is there a fast & simple way of transferring the realm & characters from the 5472 to the 5953 after the conversion? I'm missing something obvious here & have several people getting upset over it. Also stuck here at work & don't have a lot of time to play with it any further. Any & all help is greatly appreciated!

    @Bastian,

    Go into your database using a tool like SQLyog, got into realmd/realmlist, and change your IP address from 127.0.0.1 to whatever it actually is on the network (ex. 192.168.xx.xx). That should fix your problem.

    Please Help

    I am using WoW client 2.4.2 (8278) release

    I keep on getting this error below.

    Map file 'C:\WoW\data/maps/0004331.map' is non-compatible version (outdated?). Please, create new using ad.exe program.
    Correct *.map files not found in path 'C:\WoW\data/maps' or *.vmap/*vmdir files in 'C:\WoW\data/vmaps' Please place *.map/*.vmap/*.vmdir files in appropriate directories or correct the DataDir value in the mangosd.conf file.

    I have edit my mangosed.conf file to point to the C:\WoW\data and can see 0004331.map and other maps there. Have rerun the ad.exe many times and still the same error.

    any idea or suggestion with be great.

    Many thanks.

    Is there any way to modify the base stats (i.e. strength, agility, stamina) of the character with this new version of MaNGOs? I have tried using both the .mod32value and .setvalue commands and neither of them are recognized. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Hey Wai

    Try this.

    Extract everything and run Reaper-x. etc etc.

    Create a map and name it data and put it in the Data map. put the dbc,maps and vmaps in the second data map. I have put the mangos and realmd stuff within the second data map too.

    Here is what it looks like within my case.

    C:\Program Files\WOW\Data\data.

    It worked for me.

    Oke its kinda annoying. Ive got some trouble so I did a new fresh install but my problem now is that everything worked fine. But when to start my world of warcraft to log in to the server it talks about validate game version... How possible... This supports the latest version. Someone a resolve?

    @ dopey thanks for the tip but i already did that. i changed the ip to my public IP address through navicat. however the other system seems to recognize the other system as it tells me the name of the realm. and says the realm is up, however it keeps hanging on logging in to realm server. could it be that i need different settings to use public IP. i'll connect my systems through router and see if it works on internal IP's

    I am having a problem restoring my old characters from my previous version.

    I used the restore function, which seemed to work ok, then ran mangosd.exe and realmd.exe, ran the wow.exe file to go into game, logged in with account from previous version, and it came up, but with no characters.

    I then see in the mangosd the following errors:

    Loading char guid 2 from account 5.
    ERROR: Player #2 have broken data in `data` field. Can’t be loaded.
    Loading char guid 4 from account 5.
    ERROR: Player #4 have broken data in `data` field. Can’t be loaded.
    Loading char guid 7 from account 5.
    ERROR: Player #7 have broken data in `data` field. Can’t be loaded.
    Loading char guid 9 from account 5.
    ERROR: Player #9 have broken data in `data` field. Can’t be loaded.
    Loading char guid 10 from account 5.
    ERROR: Player #10 have broken data in `data` field. Can’t be loaded.
    Loading char guid 12 from account 5.
    ERROR: Player #12 have broken data in `data` field. Can’t be loaded.
    Loading char guid 13 from account 5.
    ERROR: Player #13 have broken data in `data` field. Can’t be loaded.

    I see this error mentioned before, but there didn't seem to be a solution for it that worked. Any suggestions/help please?

    @Bastian,

    I was refering to your internal address within the network. Pointing it to your public address is only needed if you are trying to connect from outside your network. So instead of putting your ISP-provided IP (ex. 24.10.87.xxx) put your IP address that you use from inside your network (192.0.XXX.XXX).

    I can't get through stage 3-4-(5).
    When I write my "MySQL BIN path", the following comes up:
    http://images.reaper-x.com/blogs/menu.jpg
    But what then?
    How do I choose one of the options?
    What's the "1&Prime?
    ("4. Selection Option 1 by pressing "1&Prime" on the keyboard and pressing enter.")
    What kind of button is that? Some kind of American button? :S

    Forget my earlier comment.
    Dno why but before It just didn't seem to work. So I got a little confused.

    Anyway, I should be done with step 6.
    But mangosd.exe won't really work.
    It says "Cannot connect to world database 127.0.0.1;3306;root;mangos;mangos"
    -realmd.exe won't work either.

    When I did the 4-(5) step, I just typed all the defaults (except from my password).
    I haven't changed anything, so everything should be set to default. (Like "mangos", "ScriptDev2", etc.)

    I'm somewhat confident, that I've completed it.
    I did get this socalled 'Matrix'-effect.
    Well, I did get to see a lot of numbers being displayed in the Command Promt.

    So... What can I do? I can't quite figure out, where I've made a mistake.

    Also, does anybody know if 'set realmlist 127.0.0.1' works for everyone?

    are you using the .gm on command? if so then try typing .gm off because if you have gm status enabled mobs won't attack you ;)

    # austin

    haven't tried the lich king alpha client yet :( as for rapidshare well since i can't mirror it to other filesharing website because my upload speed is 8 KBps at max and it's impossible for me to mirror it elsewhere :(

    # Wonkinator

    It says “Cannot connect to world database 127.0.0.1;3306;root;mangos;mangos”
    -realmd.exe won’t work either.

    if you get cant connect message that means mangos can't access your database for some reasons like:

    1. MySQL Server is not running yet
    2. Incorrect username and or password

    # john

    if you use the restore function then you'll need to run the upgrade once again because the character structure has been changed (because the previous backup still use the old structure)
