Reaper MaNGOS 5953 with ScriptDev 414|Server Compatible With 2.4.2 (UDB ONLY!)
Posted by Oatman May 26 2008 10:51 am
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.
REQUIREMENTS:

Custom Vendors Pack

Credits to Firane for creating the 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) ;)
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.
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.
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, nevermind I fixed the above error… I have “realmd.exe” working properly but now when I run “mangosd.exe” I get this to appear:
Using DataDir ./
WORLD: VMap support included. LineOfSight:0, getHeight:0
WORLD: VMap data directory is: ./vmaps
WORLD: VMap config keys are: vmap.enableLOS, vmap.enableHeight, vmap.ignoreMapIds, vmap.ignoreSpellIDs
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.
What is the DataDir value supposed to be / located??
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
Could not connect to MySQL database at 127.0.0.1: Access denied for user ‘root’@'localhost’ (using password:YES)
Cannot connect to world database 127.0.0.1;3306;root;mangos;mangos
When I try running “realmd.exe” I get:
Database: 127.0.0.1;3306;root;mangos;realmd
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”
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″
If someone could answer some of my questions, it would be greatly appreciated.
1) Is Magister’s Terraces and Sunwell working?
2) Where can I find the latest GM commands?
Thanks again to Oatman and whomever can help me.
Is there a way to back up characters then do a fresh install then restore characters? I am guessing not and have it work. It tells me that the data string for those missing characters is messed up so not all characters load just some of them.
P.S. I am upgrading not doing the full install.
I tryed to upgrade from Reaper Mangos 5472 to Reaper MaNGOS 5931 and some characters are corrupt. Restored a working 5472, did up grade again with Reaper MaNGOS 5953 still corrupt. Upgrade from 5472 to Reaper MaNGOS 5953 still corrupt. Restore the 5472 and everything works. What am I missing this time?
Great Work!!!
I would love it if:
@Sunwell was working properly
@The “new island” was fully working
@Arena 4 sets where available
@GM Island had the vendors
4 things on my wish list apart from that everything else works great!
has ne one found out how to set up the custom vendors on this realease?
when u installed mysql did u set no password or have u used php admin to set up account access for the database?
@bear
Assuming you’re using “root” as your admin account for mysql…..change the first “mangos;” to your actual SQL password. Do that for all three entries in the mangos.conf file.
I’m still getting the same error:
Cannot connect to world database 127.0.0.1;3306;root;mangos;mangos
How do I fix this crap?
does ne one have ne idea how i get the cendors to work on this release?
sry at this point ur guess is as good as mine
im still trying to get a response to my ?’s unfortunatly i been helping all day and still havent gotten ne one to help me
just because I can’t see my post about what os I’m running, here it is again (with some random chit-chat so that wordpress doesn’t detect double post) -.- xp sp2 with admin acc
oh, yeah…
is there a problem with custom databases? cuz I’ve chosen to name the wowXXXXX (realm, world script, chars) I have changed the .conf files accordingly though..
nope, didn’t help
Anyone?
I just discovered that the WoWServer\data folder missed the maps and vmaps, moving now to see if it solves the problem with mangosd.exe
if you are running vista right click on mangos exe and tell it to run as administrator if nt i have no idea
if vista right click on mangos and tek it to run as admin if not then i hav e no idea
what operating system are u running ?
Ok, so I’ve installed this, fixed the maps, vmaps and the dbc (they’re all in “c:\games\world of warcraft\data\”)the realmd.exe starts with the mangos realm going up, but when I try to start mangosd.exe it just closes instantly. anyone who can solve this?
guess that wasnt u then just a diffrent game and when u are ready to put the server online u will need to edit the realmlist file in the database to ur ip address u can do this by using sqlyog to edit the file
sof2?
i think it works, i just created my account
thanks a lot for the help elderslayer
so mod isnt short for modified is it previously from sof2?
thats a new one for me couldnt tell u
realmd error:
SQL: select id, name, address,port,icon,color,timezone,allowed securitylevel, population FROM realmlist where color ORDER BY name queary error: TABLE ‘mangos.realmlist’ dosen’t exist
No valid realms specified.
i ran #6 in reaper and this is what i get when i open my realmd any help?
not trying to be rude its just very hard to explain step by step and its already thier and written for ya :)
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
u need to place the ad.exe in ur main wow folder as the directions say and run it it will make a map folder and then when its done move that to the directory u should look at the installation instructions for fresh install if u dont follow it stepop by step u will have several issues
it finally finished, but i still dont have a maps folder. just vmaps
takes that part as long if not longer than the whole vmap process
it will go just wait it takes forever
no idea
i have the vmaps file from running the ad.exe, but now i’m running makevmaps_SIMPLE and i get down to the part that says to wait until i get PRESS ANY KEY TO CONTINUE MESSAGE and i know i’m supposed to wait until it gets to that, but it wont go any farther. at the bottom it just says:
C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft>vmap_assembler.exe buildings vmaps splitConfig.txt
any ideas why it wont continue?
hi, guys one question, whats the ACID script for??
i am doing a fresh install so dont have that info at the moment, but the errors were the info that is added to #6
what errors is realmd giving
and yes that info shows up in my sqylog database
i am getting errors when i start realmd, i think the info when running # 6 in reaper isnt carrying thru.
does mangos exe show its up and online and do u have realmd up with no errors?
My loading screen keeps getting stuck at logging into game server any ideas?
anyone figure out how to get all the ustom vendors back yet?
k well u need to run the extractor and get all ur files in order and set that datadir path and u should be good to go
also, i had:
RealmID = 1
DataDir = “.”
LogsDir = “”
i didnt know i had to change that
ok i found out why it says the file doesnt exist. its because my maps and vmaps folders are empty. i thought they came with the file since the dbc folder did and i didnt check them.
RealmID = 1
DataDir = “C:\wow\Data”
LogsDir = “”
it should be in a group like this
its in the first set of alterable tables
Hi Reaper,
First of all good work, its nice to have a good private wow server.
I have some questions.
After I updated to this version all the quests i have where i need to kill some creatures the counter does not work. So i can’t complete them??
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?
I think its not my wow installation because some friends ho are also in my server have these problems to.
Hope anyone could help me.
Thanks allot Brutus
i was looking through the mangosd.conf file, but i dont see any directory to where my maps and vmaps are
actually it could be in ur config file in the manos config file thier is a line to enter your data directory aka the location u have ur maps vmaps and dbc folder make sure the directory is correct
