Wow Private Server Tutorial

This guide is not a repost, it is not copied, I've made it from my personal experience within the last week or so of learning this. I will also make a guide on how to compile NCDB so that there is no longer a need for repacks! Well, I mean.... unless you don't want to do this.

First, you need to download these two programs:
1. TortoiseSVN downloads | TortoiseSVN
2. Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition


Next, you should create a new folder on your Desktop and name it anything you wish. Then, right click the folder and after you've installed both programs above, you should be able to right click and press SVN Checkout...

Then you type in:

One it's done downloading all of those files, navigate to your folder directory and enter: trunk/win : and then open "arcemuVC90" using Microsoft C++ Express Edition with SP1.

Then, at the top of the program, make sure where it says "debug" you click the dropdown arrow and switch to "Release".

Once there, you can right click "Solution VC90 (1 project)" then click, Build Solution.




Once, this is completed, you should see it at the very bottom. It should say,

"4 succeeded, 0 failed, and something else"

Now, move on to
and open up scripts2008 and do the EXACT SAME THING for this file as you did with arcemuVC90.

Once that one is done, simply do it for ExtraScripts2008 and you're done with the hard part. Now, if you're making a new repack, navigate to "trunk/bin/release" and all you have to do is copy and paste the DBC, Maps, vMaps, arcemu-logonserver.exe and arcemu-world.exe, scripts_bin into the new folder for your server.

Also, go into:
again and copy the entire lua_scripts folder into your server folder and also copy and past the config folder in there as well. I think....

If you're not making a fresh repack, then simply copy the arcemu-logonserver and world and your scripts and script_bin into your server folder.

Let me know if I left anything out or you're having troubles!
