[Compiling Custom Scripts] Arena Event

[Pwntzyou]

Pre-Requisites
-Microsoft Visual C++
-A Core you compiled by yourself

**NOTE if you do not know how to compile your own version of arcemu / other emulator you use, you need to search for a guide on one, THIS WILL NOT WORK ON REPACKS

If you don't know how to compile your own core, I recommend this guide
http://www.mmowned.com/forums/emulat...le-arcemu.html

Steps (If unclear, see video below)

-Download my arena theme generator (see post below)

http://www.mmowned.com/forums/emulat...generator.html

1. Open up the folder with your compiled core in it (If you have not compiled it yet, please do so now)

2. Navigate to this folder
src/scripts/src/ExtraScripts

3. Put my ArenaEvent.cpp script into the extrascripts folder

4. Navigate to this folder
src/scripts/projects/

5. Open ExtraScripts2008.vcproj

6. To the left you should see something called the solution explorer, you should also see two folders inside it (scripts and main resources)

7. Right click on the scripts folder, then click add, then click existing item

8. Navigate to this folder
src/scripts/src/ExtraScripts/

9. Double click on ArenaEvent.cpp

10. Now ArenaEvent.cpp should be in the scripts folder, double click on it and scroll to the bottem

11. Note how it says "SetupArenaEvent"

12. Click on the main resources folder

13. Click on setup.cpp

14. Right below

extern "C" SCRIPT_DECL void _exp_script_register(ScriptMgr* mgr)
{

Add SetupArenaEvent(mgr);

15. Double click on setup.h

16. Right below

#define INSTANCE_SCRIPTS_SETUP_H

Add void SetupArenaEvent(ScriptMgr * mgr);

17. At the top of the program you should see "Build" (it should be to the right of file)

18. Click build -> configuration manager

19. Where it says Debug, change it to Release

20. Click build again, then build solution!

21. Wait for it to compile, then boot your server up!

Soularis, open up the sql and take the npc parts of the sql out, then just make your own npc with the correct id
