Reaper Trinity Core Installation Guide

Special Thanks to Wrath for creating this Reaper-X TrinityCore Installation Instruction, and that means full credits should be given to him ;)

First Things first!!! Pay attention to the instuctions directly do not vear off and think you know what your doing because you wouldnt be reading this if you knew what you was doing…jking but still stay to the instructions.

1. Install wow 2.4.3 and make sure you have the correct version I repeat 2.4.3. ok now off to the good stuff.

2. Download and install MYSQL follow the instructions that are provided for you on the page. Even if you have installed mysql before reread the instuctions and follow to a T.

3. After you have finished installing mysql download and install .net framework 3.5 SP1. This is also provided for you on the web page. If you have previous installations of MYSQL uninstall it and delete any sql folders left over and then reinstall.

4. Now download the Trinity Core 595 SD2 809 (Trinity/UDB ONLY) FULL | 18.0 MB | Rapidshare (or from any mirror you choose) and then extract it. I usually extract it to the desktop. you can extract it by double clicking on the file.

5.After you get the mysql loaded and configured there are some changes that you have to make. go to your desktop folder called Reaper-X Trinity Rev 1 and then open it. then open the folder labeled install database.Now right click on the Install Reaper-X Trinity.bat file and edit it in notepad. you must add qotes as seen below.. Also you must make sure that the correct path is typed for where the bin file is located.What you see below is my path make sure you type your path.After your done editing this file save and close it.

REM #################################################### REM # MySQL HOST PATH - MySQL Server Path REM # EXAMPLE: C:\Program Files\MySQL Community 5.0\bin REM #################################################### set mysqlpath="c:\Program Files\mysql\MySQLServer5.0\bin" <--notice the qoutes in the path.

6. Now open the Reaper-X Trinity Rev 1 folder that is located on your desktop. Hang in there were getting to the good parts.

7. You should see a bunch of files and 4 folders when you open it up.

8. The first thing we want to do when we get this folder open is fill the folder that says data with the correct stuff. If you open the data folder up you will see three folders. DBC ,maps and Vmaps. DBC is already filled with the correct stuff, dont touch, delete or anything right now. If you open maps and Vmaps the folders are empty and that is ok. We are going to fill them with the correct data.

9. Close out of the Data windows that you have open so that you are back at your desktop and reopen the Reaper-X Trinity Rev 1 folder.Now open the extractors folder. You should see a folder and a file. Folder named vmap extractor and assembler. and a file named map and DBC extractor.exe.

10. Open the vmap extractor and assembler folder and you should see 4 files in there. Copy all 4 files and then paste them into your c:\program files\world of warcraft\data\enus directory and then run the RUN ME FOR VMAPS!.bat file. This will create the VMAPS folder. this may take a while so just wait till it tells you it is done.

11. Ok after Vmaps are created copy the folder name vmaps that has now been created, into the Reaper-X Trinity Rev 1 folder under the data folder. This is where the three folders are that I talked about earlier (maps,vmaps,dbc). copy all the contents from vmaps into the folder named vmaps in there. So now you should have a filled dbc folder and a filled vmaps folder in there. the maps folder is empty still but we are going to add data in a minute in there also.

12. Ok now we need to put data into the map folder so the way to do that is go to Reaper-X Trinity Rev 1 (on your dekstop) folder again and go to extractors. copy the map and dbc extractor.exe file to the c:\program files\world of warcraft folder and paste it there. now run the maps and dbc extractor.exe file. This will start to install the maps to a folder called maps. see how easy that is. Once it is done you now need to open the maps folder it created and copy the contents or data, and then paste it into the folder called maps located in the Reaper-X Trinity Rev 1\data\maps folder (you know the folder on your dekstop). now the DBC, VMAPS and MAPS folder all have data in them. YAY!!!

13. Now you need to move those folders to the correct location. Go to your c:\drive and make a folder there on the root called WOW. now open the wow folder you just created and make another folder in there called DATA. Now open the DATA folder you just created. Now go to your desktop and inside your Reaper-X Trinity Rev 1 folder open the data folder. You should see the three folders in there (maps,vmaps and DBC) copy all three folders into the DATA folder we just created previously. so when done you should have 3 folders in you c:\wow\data path. maps,vmaps and DBC should be in there.

14. Now you need to run the Install Reaper-X Trinity.bat file(located in the Reaper-X Trinity Rev 1 folder on your desktop under the install database folder. Run this file and it will take a while for this too run.

15. once it is done it should close on its own if not hit any key and it should close.

16. Now you need to download Navicat program. this will allow you to edit the sql files. after downloading Navicat make a new connection and name it whatever you want.username should be root or whatever you made it when you set SQl up. Put your password in whatever you made the password.Click test and it should be sucessful. Now open the realmd tables and then go to realmlist. once you open realmlist you will see a table probably empty and this is where you need to add your realm name. Put your realm name where it says realm name and then put your IP address where it says ip address(127.0.0.1). The ID should be 1. close Navicat out.

17. Now go back to your desktop and open the trinityrealm.exe file and you should see your realm listed in there.

18. Now open click on the trinitycore.exe file and it should start scripting, let it run.

19. Once it is finished you now need to create an account so you can play. Hit enter to get a command prompt. Type account create (login name anything you want) (your password). Hit enter it should say account created.

20. Now if you want Gm power in which im sure you do type account set gm (username) 3 and hit enter. should have a GM account now.

21. Now you need to create the TBC (The burning Crusade) addon so you can play in the Burning Crusade area. Type account set addon (Your username) 1.

22. Navigate to c:\program files\world of warcraft. Look for the realmlist.wtf file. right click on it and click on edit. Should open a notepad. Now take everything out of there and type “set realmlist 127.0.0.1″ without the quotes. Save and close.

22. You can now open Wow and type your username and Password and login to your realm and play as a GM.

Ok, I know how to install everything else. But I do not have the WoW installed on my computer, I also do not have the disc or anything for it.. How would I go about getting WoW version 2.4.3 so I use Trinty, and create my own world to play in?

Char not showing up. I’m able to connect and I can even create a character, but after I hit create which then puts me at the character select screen, there’s no character there.

I went to the char file within the trinity folder and the character is listed. Any ideas of what’s happening?

Thanks in advance

Howdy again Reaper folk,
I finally got my server working via Old Man’s help so thanks for that one. Also I went into the tables via Navcat and made a few changes (apparently the highest possible setting for any base stat is 255, but thats not why I’m posting).
I was wondering if anyone knew a way to edit specific spells and abilities either through a text editor or if it is hidden somewhere in the UDB. Having 65,000 health on a tank doesn’t do much if your healer is only healing for 1,000 a pop ya know? So my solution would be to either edit the spells themselves (assuming it’s possible) or by finding the stat for spell power and majorly twinking it. If anyone knows a method for editing either one of them I’d greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

You should try Darkened Linux New Repack, you do not need to configure anything. You cant mess up at all.

When I try to install the DB Everything is set up and I even have the quotes in the .bat file

REM ####################################################
REM # MySQL HOST PATH - MySQL Server Path
REM # EXAMPLE: C:\Program Files\MySQL Community 5.0\bin
REM ####################################################
set mysqlpath=”C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\bin”

When ever I run the .bat file it says this when ever I try to install it –

ERROR 1045 : Access denied for user ‘Root’@'localhost’

This is what’s confusing me because for the DB installation there didn’t say anything about being connected to the localhost.. but even if.. it should download right? so why is it doing this????

@faby47
you should wait till the vamps folder in the same place as the vmaps extracor and buildings folder get filled,in which you get no “clear” message about.
just wait until it reaches 1.79 GB in size.

Fox_Youkai said Jun 9, 2009 at 12:03 am

you should wait. it’ll first create the buildings then the vmaps and NO, there won’t be any “clear” massages about it. just check the vmaps folder in the same directory and when it reaches 1.79 GB in size it’s finished…
(be patient)

Too all of you who have the Map Extractor Errors(either an error at 41% “chunk” or TrinityCore related to Maps)
First of all be sure u have installed
1.WoW Classic EnUS Version
2.WoW Tbc EnUS Version
3.Patched to 2.4.3 (enter wow.exe to be sure)

If u did exacly as i said there should be no errors HOWEVER ppl seem to install WoW classic then patch then TBC (check version IT DOESN’T WORK) and also i saw most of the guys with problems are using enGB versions of the game, this might work with some tweaking but it WON”T work if u just follow the guide so DON’T use enGB versions of the game for map extraction.
Hope this helps the darn problem ;)

So I have the same issues as post #111. I can log in but everytime I click on the realm I get put right back to the realm list. I saw that post #111 was able to get past it but I did not see the answer.

Thanks

After some research I finally got it to work again. Thanks for all your help The Darkened Linux. Since I only wanted LAN play, only thing I was missing was setting up my realmlist to my lan ip address. Now the other computer on my LAN has that same ip in it’s realmlist.wtf file in the wow folder.
I guess you also have an external ip address (which I didn’t know, I am a noob for networking) which others can use to connect to you outside your LAN as long as you have the necessery ports forwarded. This one was changing for me when I was using the DNS. But I guess I don’t even need that(unless I wanna go public which I don’t).

The Darkened Linux said May 5, 2009 at 10:30 pm

When the DNS connects to your ip it needs to connect to a commuter in the network. A static ip just make you computer have the same local ip address. Try this http://portforward.com/networking/static-xp.htm this is how I did it on my Windows Box. But top severs use Linux

The Darkened Linux said May 5, 2009 at 10:20 pm

Your problem is easy to fix, if you use http://www.dyndns.com/ for your host name it will automatically configure your ip address every time it changes, but that’s if you also configure you modem. In you modem there is a place where u can enter your (dyndns.com) site name and it will auto configure your ip.
Also in your MySQL database you can enter your (dyndns.com) site name into the ip spot, So you don’t need to enter your ip every time it changes.
And yes I think my user name is The Darkened Linux on the Trinity Core Site.
