    UR1 DOESN’T HAVE MANY OF THE EXTRA FEATURES THAT WE SAID WE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE SO BELOW THIS WILL BE LINKS TO NEW FEATURES AND UPDATES THAT WE DIDN’T HAVE TIME TO ADD IN THE FULL RELEASE  (WHEN DOWNLOADING THE UPDATES PLEASE READ THE DARN README FILES):

    • none
    • None
    • None

     

    SET UP:

    Step 1:  Install MySQL using the guide here  >>>  (MySQL Installation and Configuration)

    NOTE: You can get either MySQL 5.0 or 5.1 (It does NOT matter).

    Step 2: Download Reaper-X UR1 "Arcane-Fire" (below are list of mirror to file). File have been compressed! These have been updated with UDB Fix 1!

    1. No Download

    2. No Download

    3. No Download

    GM COMMAND LIST:

    Updated GM Command List for this version

     

    Fresh Install:
    Important Note : Fresh installation will overwrite your database!!!

    Pictures in this guide have NOT been updated (sorry again)!!!

    1. Make sure you have MySQL (5.0 or 5.1) installed and configured correctly on your computer.

    2. Extracting Maps, DBC and VMaps from your World of Warcraft installation

  • YOU NEED TO EXTRACT FOR 2.4.3!!!

  • 3. Run the Arcane-Fire.bat inside the Fresh Install 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 BIN Image

  • 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.

    Mangos batch 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

    Mangos EXE

    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 !

    Upgrading from 6245 Release:

    1. Make sure to RE-EXTRACT your DBC’s, Maps, and VMaps, because this release now supports 2.4.3!

    2. Go into your WoW Reaper Server Directory, and open Reaper-X-MaNGOS.

    3. Open the Folder called “Upgrade” and run Upgrade-2-UR1.bat.

    4. Next type in the directory to the Bin Folder where your mysql.exe and mysqldump.exe files are located. (Default is C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin)

    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.

    Updated Batch image

    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 and run the batch file called Arcane-Fire.bat, 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 what 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 ROOT;PASSWORD to your root DB name, likey it’s just root, and YOUR database (DB) password (you should know this)

    YOU DO NOT CHANGE THE IP’S!!! Here is a guide to make your server public! Public Setup Guide!

    Next open scriptdev2.conf and realmd.conf and edit the info for them to connect to your database as well.

      I have removed the links until I can create a stable version, thanks to everyone (Bigger thanx to Summonence who worked harder to try and fix the error) who tried to help!

      @SccS
      Patch works perfect for broken “data” field in characters table.

      TO ALL WITH CHARACTERS ISSUES, SEE COMMENT 132 by SccS. This resolves the data issues.
      For other issues, make sure you’re using the correct columns (see posts related to dungeon_difficulty.

      rror in creature_template table, probably sql file format was updated (there should be 64 “fields in sql).”

      I received this error after updating to UR1 from the last Reaper-X release :/ Any ideas?

      Very nice job Colt.

      I beg to differ Summonence, Rikiller that’s what I was referring to in my above post. The 6360_characters_characters.sql in the zip I uploaded fixes the old characters.

      this is correct i applied the fix and still the same, then i ran the 6360_characters_characters.sql and now all working fine phew……

      thanks IntErlOpr

      I guess should clarify that I didn’t change ALL the slashes in the whole file, just the ones in the line “DataDir =”

      Mangos.exe prompt:
      Check existing of map file: [sic](lol nice engrish btw)

      “maps/000431.map not found.”

      though I am staring right the file within the correct arcane-fire folder.
      ____________________________

      I had this problem too. The solution was to change the slashes in the mangosd.conf file from “\” to “/”

      i.e. my original – c:\reaper-x\arcane-fire\data – resulted in the missing map error. Once I changed it to c:/reaper-x/arcane-fire/data, it worked like a champ. Obviously, substitute your own path, just change the slashes and try it that way.

      @colt

      I’ll give it another shot (this will be attempt number 3) just to verify, but I am going to assume at this point that the files in my wow install dir have been corrupted based on what I’ve seen thus far.

      I’ll just have to repatch it up and see how it goes should I get the same error. Thanks for the help

    16. Checkmate said Jul 28, 2008 at 2:16 am

      @colt45 Is the newer stable version with UDB 357 going to be upgradable from 6245?

      Hey,
      I had a problem with the characters not showing, applied the fix and now I have a similar problem, just with a different error message.
      SQL ERROR: Unknown column ‘taxi_path’ in ‘field list’
      I’ve searched the net but can’t find anything that would help… Any ideas?
      Thanks.

      oh ok.. its supposed to make them together to a file whit name of DBC’s & maps..? got that one now. to inside it is only maps..:(?

    20. Bav101 said Jul 28, 2008 at 1:44 am

      @MMssda

      heya bud, dont need to download the DBC its easier to get it yourself, get ad.exe from Arcane-Fire\Extraction Tools\DBC’s & Maps and copy it into the root of your wow folder (of course making sure its 2.4.3!) then make 2 folders, maps and dbc open a dos prompt change to the wow folder and type the following,

      ad -e 2 hit enter and it’ll extract the dbc files and all you have to do is copy the folder to where the maps and vmaps are and it should run ok.

      Guys, thanks alot for all your hard work in getting all the kinks worked outof this release, if i wore a hat i’d take it off to ya’s all!

    21. Colt45 said Jul 28, 2008 at 1:39 am

      Also im working on a more stable version now, but it will be UDB 357! Sorry!

    22. Colt45 said Jul 28, 2008 at 1:38 am

      ….. dude…. the ad.exe extract both your maps and dbcs…. You may have this problem because either the extractor didnt find the file, when copying to your arcane-fire folder it missed that file, or your WoW directory has a corrupt file.

    23. MMssda said Jul 28, 2008 at 1:33 am

      please make download link for folder and the stuff in it; DBC :) isnt included in my download, thanks, keep good work up :)

    33. Rikiller said Jul 27, 2008 at 9:14 pm

      Hmmm.. no luck with anything really.
      All I can suggest at the moment, is if you run a server with WWW connection – Don’t upgrade yet!
      After about a million different fix attempts, I’ve rolled back to 2.4.2 until a stable release is put out.

      Gheeez! One problem after another. I got to the point where I got my character made but when I try to enter the world everything freezes to the leading screen and the loading bar is not moving at all, so its not loaing any files. How can I fix this?

    36. IntErlOpr said Jul 27, 2008 at 5:19 pm

      I beg to differ Summonence, Rikiller that’s what I was referring to in my above post. The 6360_characters_characters.sql in the zip I uploaded fixes the old characters.

    37. Rikiller said Jul 27, 2008 at 5:02 pm

      @Heaight
      Yeah that worked to make new characters… .
      Here’s the SQL:

      TRUNCATE `character_instance`;
      TRUNCATE `instance`;

      ALTER TABLE `character_instance`
      DROP KEY `leader`,
      DROP PRIMARY KEY,
      ADD PRIMARY KEY `guid` (`guid`,`instance`),
      DROP COLUMN `map`,
      DROP COLUMN `leader`,
      MODIFY COLUMN `instance` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
      ADD COLUMN `permanent` tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL default '0';

      ALTER TABLE `instance`
      ADD COLUMN `difficulty` tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL default '0' AFTER `resettime`;

      CREATE TABLE `group_instance` (
      `leaderGuid` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
      `instance` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
      `permanent` tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
      PRIMARY KEY (`leaderGuid`,`instance`),
      KEY `instance` (`instance`)
      ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

      CREATE TABLE `instance_reset` (
      `mapid` int(11) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
      `resettime` bigint(40) NOT NULL default '0',
      PRIMARY KEY (`mapid`)
      ) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

      ALTER TABLE `groups`
      ADD COLUMN `difficulty` tinyint(3) unsigned NOT NULL default '0' AFTER `isRaid`;

      ALTER TABLE `characters`
      ADD COLUMN `dungeon_difficulty` tinyint(1) unsigned NOT NULL DEFAULT '0' AFTER `map`;

      BUT… there seems to be something wrong with the ‘data’ column. The server is reporting that eg:

      ERROR: Player #2 have broken data in 'data' field. Can't be loaded.

    38. Haeight said Jul 27, 2008 at 4:49 pm

      I setup a few mangos installs in the past few months solely using this website, I did look at compiling my own a few times. Today, motivated me to compile my own mangos.

      I had no issues extracting on a fresh DB, using Arcane-Fire. Everything went smooth until I created my 1st character it didn’t show up after I created it.

      So I learned to compile my own today. I came across a possible answer to this issue fresh install character creation problem. It was mentioned in the UDB forums that 358_corepatch_characters_6241_to_6346.sql
      is not compatible with MaNGOS Rev. 6382

      Since I was in the middle of compiling everything and getting my database up and running I had already d/l 6362_characters.sql as the lateset character svn being used. I finally got everything running w/o a problem.

      I have not tried to use Arcane-Fire again and make the change on the character.sql file in the DB yet.

    39. Shatty said Jul 27, 2008 at 4:40 pm

      wow, your great man =] i have been waiting for this! thanks very much! and GREAT job :D

    40. Ode said Jul 27, 2008 at 4:25 pm

      Can someone advice me how I set up the database to mysql correctly? I think that is the reason why I can’t get it to work.. I’ve tried to look up posts in the site to find instuctions but I haven’t found them. Or I just didn’t “get it”..

    41. Summonence said Jul 27, 2008 at 4:15 pm

      No guys the version thats downloadable has already been tested, and it works, Backup, upgrading and fresh-install. No worries for anyo of you for this. It’s already patched.

    42. SR2 said Jul 27, 2008 at 3:45 pm

      IntErlOpr! I tested, and works. :D

    43. IntErlOpr said Jul 27, 2008 at 3:40 pm

      I *think* that all you’d have to do it run the 6360_characters_characters.sql patch if you’ve added the dungeon_difficulty column and it would work. Unable to test due to accidentally deleting my 6245 DB and I don’t have the time to re-install right now. Reap, oat or Colt you’d already have it if you’ve downloaded the mangos SVN release.

    44. IntErlOpr said Jul 27, 2008 at 2:31 pm

      I don’t know why it works, no time to check anything, just wanted it out there ASAP

    45. IntErlOpr said Jul 27, 2008 at 2:28 pm

      This is how I got it working from a character dump using 6245 unsure if a backup would work:

      This is the part in the char dump you need to go to:

      ‘CharNameHere’, ‘1′, ‘8′, ‘26.9513′, ‘4288.28′, ‘90.1167′, ‘530′, ”,

      Search for your char name, The last part after 530 (the map no) is blank, change it to ‘0′. So it’s the 7th piece of data after your character name. That’s the dungeon_difficulty column.

      Go into your MySQL\data\characters directory and delete everything (BACKUP FIRST). Run the characters.sql file included in the zip I link to down the bottom to recreate it. Load your character dump using the loadpdump option in Mangos Server. Then run the 6360 sql patch also included in the zip and it works fine.

      Don’t forget to back-up blah blah blah, sorry it’s messy and probably confusing but it works for me anyway.

    46. Summonence said Jul 27, 2008 at 1:54 pm

      Yes sorry there was a release, its not our fault they weren’t working. I worked hard on this today, to figure out make sure its working stable enough to host your players. Working on fixing other issues in the next day or so.

    47. checkmate said Jul 27, 2008 at 1:41 pm

      Thanks for the update and appreciate the extra work. Better to have it just right then not.

    48. Colt45 said Jul 27, 2008 at 12:52 pm

      Also if you run a public server I DO NOT reccommend updating yet! It seems there have been alot of errors, but help reporting them so we can fix them helps!

    49. Colt45 said Jul 27, 2008 at 12:51 pm

      Also if you already downloaded it you can try the UBD Fix 1 link at the top of the post (the fix may be just a flash and then gone but if it doesnt work then use Navicat to apply FIRST the fix_part1.sql file then the fix_part2.sql file!

    50. Colt45 said Jul 27, 2008 at 12:49 pm

      Im about to update the links to the fixed (not %100) but to where u can make, see, and delete your characters!
