Emulation: The Basics.

[Found]

Welcome. I was new once here on MMOwned, and damn have I learned alot since March, I mean A lot!. And I know everyone has to start somewhere and to be completely honest I didn't know where to start. I looked continuously to find posts to help me in the emulation world. I wanted to be able to do some of the things I saw on here and I was just furious that i couldn't learn. Eventually I figured out after experimenting very much and trying to make servers and script instances make items, mobs, and all of that stuff that people do on servers. And I was envious. So I learned I leeched to the point of being here for a few months and no rep. But now I'm a contributor and I am not hated anymore. And that's because of Emulation.

In the guide I will teach:

I will be adding more to the mangos side of things, so please dont worry bout that.

I hope some of these guides and definitions will be helpful and I hope you guys are helped by these things as I was. Let's begin.

I - What is Emulation

Q: What is emulation?
A: An emulator in computer sciences duplicates (provides an emulation of)
the functions of one system using a different system, so that the second system behaves like (and appears to be)
the first system.
This focus on exact reproduction of external behavior is in contrast to some other forms of computer simulation, which can concern an abstract model of the system being simulated.
And to simplify this emulation is a replica of the original for your needs and testing of what you want and how you want it.


II - Vocabulary

Emulation - An emulator in computer sciences duplicates (provides an emulation of) the functions of one system using a different system, so that the second system behaves like (and appears to be) the first system. This focus on exact reproduction of external behavior is in contrast to some other forms of computer simulation, which can concern an abstract model of the system being simulated.

Private Server - A world of warcraft server privately owned by someone who either runs it or plays on it and allows otehr people to play on it (note they are illigal and blizz hates em).

SQL - SQL (Structured Query Language) is a database computer language designed for managing data in relational database management systems (RDBMS), and originally based upon Relational Algebra. Its scope includes data query and update, schema creation and modification, and data access control. SQL was one of the first languages for Edgar F. Codd's relational model in his influential 1970 paper, "A Relational Model of Data for Large Shared Data Banks" and became the most widely used language for relational databases.

LUA - LUA is a lightweight, reflective, imperative and functional programming language, designed as a scripting language with extensible semantics as a primary goal. The name comes from the Portuguese word lua meaning "moon". Lua has a relatively simple C API compared to other scripting languages.

Because both Lua and JavaScript use prototype-based objects and were influenced by Scheme, they feature many common semantics, despite the great differences in syntax. In its design, Lua is also similar to Icon, perhaps due to both of them being influenced by SNOBOL.

Lua is widely used in the video game industry. Apart from games, Lua has been used in many applications, both commercial and non-commercial.

C++ - C++ is a statically typed, free-form, multi-paradigm, compiled, general-purpose programming language. It is regarded as a middle-level language, as it comprises a combination of both high-level and low-level language features.[1] It was developed by Bjarne Stroustrup starting in 1979 at Bell Labs as an enhancement to the C programming language and originally named "C with Classes". It was renamed to C++ in 1983.

C++ is widely used in the software industry, and remains one of the most popular languages ever created. Some of its application domains include systems software, application software, device drivers, embedded software, high-performance server and client applications, and entertainment software such as video games. Several groups provide both free and proprietary C++ compiler software, including the GNU Project, Microsoft, Intel, Borland and others.

C++ is also used for hardware design, where design is initially described in C++, then analyzed, architecturally constrained, and scheduled to create a register transfer level hardware description language via high-level synthesis.

The language began as enhancements to C, first adding classes, then virtual functions, operator overloading, multiple inheritance, templates, and exception handling among other features. After years of development, the C++ programming language standard was ratified in 1998 as ISO/IEC 14882:1998. That standard is still current, but is amended by the 2003 technical corrigendum, ISO/IEC 14882:2003. The next standard version (known informally as C++0x) is in development. used to make bosses commands and is the central for of the private server

Game master - A Gamemaster, Game Master or Game Manager (often abbreviated as GM) is a player in a multiplayer game who acts as organizer, arbitrator, and officiant in rules situations. They are most common in co-operative games where the other players work together and are less common in competitive games where the other players battle one another.

Today, gamemaster is usually associated with role-playing games. In a role-playing game the 'Gamemaster's purpose is to weave the other participants' player-character stories together, control the non-player aspects of the game, and create environments in which the players can interact. The basic roles of Gamemasters - rules help, moderation, and storytelling - are the same in almost all role-playing games, although differing rulesets make the specific duties of the GM unique to that system.

Custom - Personalized to ones needs.

mangos - The MaNGOS project is a full featured World of Warcraft server suite, including servers for authentication, client updates, world content serving, and battlegrounds. Additional features include tools to build and develop game content.

MaNGOS is an educational project. This means, our primary interest is to learn and teach us and our users more about C++ project development in a large scale. Our software is not intended for running public servers, and we do not support that.

arc emu - ArcEmu is an Open Source World of Warcraft server, which is x86 compatible (including Pentium® and Athlon™), amd64 compatible, and PowerPC compatible. It is currently developed and maintained by a team of individuals. The server is written in C++ and offers advanced networking, performance, ingame anti-hack security, and unique features today which are still missing in other emulators.


gm commands - GM commands are the commands you type in that allow you to control the game however you wish and you have complete control.

game object - The objects added to the game in order to make structures, ex: rock, fire, stormwind.

dns - The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical naming system for computers, services, or any resource connected to the Internet or a private network. It associates various information with domain names assigned to each of the participants. Most importantly, it translates domain names meaningful to humans into the numerical (binary) identifiers associated with networking equipment for the purpose of locating and addressing these devices worldwide. An often used analogy to explain the Domain Name System is that it serves as the "phone book" for the Internet by translating human-friendly computer hostnames into IP addresses. For example, Example Web Page translates to 208.77.188.166.

The Domain Name System makes it possible to assign domain names to groups of Internet users in a meaningful way, independent of each user's physical location. Because of this, World-Wide Web (WWW) hyperlinks and Internet contact information can remain consistent and constant even if the current Internet routing arrangements change or the participant uses a mobile device. Internet domain names are easier to remember than IP addresses such as 208.77.188.166 (IPv4) or 2001:db8:1f70::999:de8:7648:6e8 (IPv6). People take advantage of this when they recite meaningful URLs and e-mail addresses without having to know how the machine will actually locate them.

The Domain Name System distributes the responsibility of assigning domain names and mapping those names to IP addresses by designating authoritative name servers for each domain. Authoritative name servers are assigned to be responsible for their particular domains, and in turn can assign other authoritative name servers for their sub-domains. This mechanism has made the DNS distributed, fault tolerant, and helped avoid the need for a single central register to be continually consulted and updated.

In general, the Domain Name System also stores other types of information, such as the list of mail servers that accept email for a given Internet domain. By providing a worldwide, distributed keyword-based redirection service, the Domain Name System is an essential component of the functionality of the Internet.

Other identifiers such as RFID tags, UPC codes, International characters in email addresses and host names, and a variety of other identifiers could all potentially utilize DNS.

The Domain Name System also defines the technical underpinnings of the functionality of this database service. For this purpose it defines the DNS protocol, a detailed specification of the data structures and communication exchanges used in DNS, as part of the Internet Protocol Suite (TCP/IP). The DNS protocol was developed and defined in the early 1980s and published by the Internet Engineering Task Force (cf. History).

my sql - MySQL is a relational database management system (RDBMS) that has more than 11 million installations. MySQL stands for "My Structured Query Language". The program runs as a server providing multi-user access to a number of databases. MySQL is officially pronounced /maɪˌɛskjuːˈɛl/ (My S-Q-L), but often pronounced /maɪˌsiː'kwɛl/ (My SEQuel).

The project has made its source code available under the terms of the GNU General Public License, as well as under a variety of proprietary agreements. MySQL is owned and sponsored by a single for-profit firm, the Swedish company MySQL AB, now a subsidiary of Sun Microsystems. As of 2009[update] Oracle Corporation began the process of acquiring Sun Microsystems.

MySQL is often used in free software projects that require a full-featured database management system, such as WordPress, phpBB and other software built on the LAMP software stack. It is also used in many high-profile, large-scale World Wide Web products including Wikipedia, Google and Facebook.

III - What is LUA

Lua was created in 1993 by Roberto Ierusalimschy, Luiz Henrique de Figueiredo, and Waldemar Celes, members of the Computer Graphics Technology Group (Tecgraf) at the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro, in Brazil.

From 1977 until 1992, Brazil had a policy of strong trade barriers (called a 'market reserve') for computer hardware and software motivated by a nationalistic feeling that Brazil could and should produce its own hardware and software. In that atmosphere, Tecgraf's clients could not afford, either politically or financially, to buy customized software from abroad. Added to the natural geographical isolation of Brazil from other research and development centers, those reasons led Tecgraf to implement from scratch the basic tools it needed.[1]

Lua's historical 'father and mother' were data-description/configuration languages SOL (Simple Object Language) and DEL (data-entry language).[2] They had been independently developed at Tecgraf in 1992-1993 to add some flexibility into two different projects (both were interactive graphical programs for engineering applications at Petrobras company). There was a lack of any flow control structures in SOL and DEL, and a continuously growing need for a full programming power to them.

In 1993, the only real contender was Tcl, which had been explicitly designed to be embedded into applications. However, Tcl had unfamiliar syntax, did not offer good support for data description, and ran only on Unix platforms. We did not consider LISP or Scheme because of their unfriendly syntax. Python was still in its infancy. In the free, do-it-yourself atmosphere that then reigned in Tecgraf, it was quite natural that we should try to develop our own scripting language... Because many potential users of the language were not professional programmers, the language should avoid cryptic syntax and semantics. The implementation of the new language should be highly portable, because Tecgraf's clients had a very diverse collection of computer platforms. Finally, since we expected that other Tecgraf products would also need to embed a scripting language, the new language should follow the example of SOL and be provided as a library with a C API.[1]

So as a consequence, Lua was born. Lua 1.0 object constructors, being then slightly different from the current light and flexible style, had incorporated data-description syntax of SOL. (Hence the name Lua — sol is portuguese for sun.) Lua syntax for control structures was mostly borrowed from Modula (if, while, repeat/until), but also had taken influence from CLU (multiple assignments and multiple returns from function calls, as a simpler alternative to reference parameters or explicit pointers), C++ ("neat idea of allowing a local variable to be declared only where we need it"[1]), SNOBOL and AWK (associative arrays). In an article published in Dr. Dobb's Journal, Lua's creators also state that Lisp and Scheme with their single, ubiquitous data structure mechanism (the list) were a major influence on their decision to develop the table as the primary data structure of Lua.[3]

Current Lua semantics was gained mainly from Scheme:

Semantically, Lua has many similarities with Scheme, even though these similarities are not immediately clear because the two languages are syntactically very different. The influence of Scheme on Lua has gradually increased during Lua's evolution: initially, Scheme was just a language in the background, but later it became increasingly important as a source of inspiration, especially with the introduction of anonymous functions and full lexical scoping.[1]

Versions of Lua prior to version 5.0 were released under a license similar to the BSD license. From version 5.0 onwards, Lua has been licensed under the MIT License..

What does it have to do with wow. Well here is a vague description.


Functions are blocks of code created to be called upon and do a specific task when your script is executed. The only way to initially call on a function is by having a certain Event happen to the scripted Unit(Whether it be a Creature, Gameobject, or Item)
These triggering events are;

-Accepting a Quest
-Completing a Quest
-Canceling a Quest
-Activating a Quest Gameobject
-Killing a Creature Required for a Quest
-Exploring an Area for a quest
-Picking up an Item for a Quest
-Creature Entering Combat
-Creature Leaving Combat
-Creature Killing an Enemy
-Creature Dieing
-Creature being Parried
-Creature being Dodged
-Creature being Blocked
-Creature being Critically Hit
-Creature Parrying
-Creature Dodging
-Creature Blocking??
-Creature Critically Hitting
-Creature Hitting
-Creature Feared
-Creature Flee
-Creature Loading
-Creature Reaching a Waypoint
-Creature having loot taken from it
-Creature Emoting
-Gameobject being Created
-Gameobject Spawning
-Gameobject having loot taken from it
-Gameobject being clicked/used
-Gameobject Despawning
-Talking to a Gossip Unit
-Selecting an option from a Gossip Unit
-Closing a Gossip Window / Ending it
 

The Skeleton if you will, of a function must always look like this;
Code:

function FunctionName(Unit, Event)

end

When this function is called it will execute what is between the Skeleton. As stated above, it can only be initially called by a trigger event. To have a function called when a specific event happens
you must register that function to do so. Below is the syntax used to register different types of Events.


RegisterUnitEvent(NPCID, FLAG, "FunctionName")
RegisterUnitGossipEvent(NPCID, FLAG, "FunctionName")
RegisterItemGossipEvent(ItemID, FLAG, "Item_Trigger")
RegisterGameObjectEvent(GoID, FLAG, "FunctionName")

Replacing the NPC/item/Go Id's with the ones you will spawn in the world and use. the 'FLAG' is a number that indicates the event that the registered function will trigger on. Here is a breakdown of how to register an event.

[NOTE]When Registering Events, you type it at the bottom or top of the script.
Please remember that no function has to have any particular name. Not having "OnCombat" in the function name, won't affect if it gets triggered on combat, as long as its function name matches the name your registering, and you have the correct flag.

Code:


function Creature_OnCombat(Unit, Event)

end

RegisterUnitEvent(6, 1,"Creature_OnCombat")

6: Is the NPCID of a Kobold Vermin, Change it to the NPCID you want to script.
1: Is the Flag of the type of event you want this registered function to get triggered on.
"Creature_OnCombat": Is the name of the function your registering to be executed when the Kobold enters combat.
RegisterUnitEvent: Is used to Register a Unit/Creature Event.

NPCID was 6 (For Kobold Vermin)
EventFlag was 1 (To Register the function Creature_OnCombat when the kobold vermin enters combat
FunctionName "Creature_OnCombat"

IV - What is C++

C++ is a object-oriented programming language

C++ (pronounced "See plus plus") is a statically typed, free-form, multi-paradigm, compiled, general-purpose programming language. It is regarded as a middle-level language, as it comprises a combination of both high-level and low-level language features.[1] It was developed by Bjarne Stroustrup starting in 1979 at Bell Labs as an enhancement to the C programming language and originally named "C with Classes". It was renamed to C++ in 1983.[2]

C++ is widely used in the software industry, and remains one of the most popular languages ever created. Some of its application domains include systems software, application software, device drivers, embedded software, high-performance server and client applications, and entertainment software such as video games. Several groups provide both free and proprietary C++ compiler software, including the GNU Project, Microsoft, Intel, Borland and others.

C++ is also used for hardware design, where design is initially described in C++, then analyzed, architecturally constrained, and scheduled to create a register transfer level hardware description language via high-level synthesis.

The language began as enhancements to C, first adding classes, then virtual functions, operator overloading, multiple inheritance, templates, and exception handling among other features. After years of development, the C++ programming language standard was ratified in 1998 as ISO/IEC 14882:1998. That standard is still current, but is amended by the 2003 technical corrigendum, ISO/IEC 14882:2003. The next standard version (known informally as C++0x) is in development.

Heres what its got to do with wow. And an example.

Example C++ Gossip script!

This is small C++ gossip script example/guide, it will teach you where 2 place most of functions, what 2 u place where and lot more small things that can help starter a lot.

Script:

Code:

/* 
		C++ Gossip Script Example by Azolex
*/
#include "StdAfx.h"
#include "Setup.h"

/*
         Configuration:
*/

#define NPC_ID

// Teleport stuff
#define MapID
#define xCoord
#define yCoord
#define zCoord
#define Orientation

// Morph Stuff
#define ModelID

// Buff Stuff
#define BuffID

// Learn Spell stuff
#define Spell1ID
#define Spell2ID

class GossipExample : public GossipScript
{
public:
	void Destroy()
	{
		delete this;
	};

    void GossipHello(ObjectPointer pObject, PlayerPointer Plr, bool AutoSend)
    {
        GossipMenu *Menu;
        objmgr.CreateGossipMenuForPlayer(&Menu, pObject->GetGUID(), 933, Plr);

        Menu->AddItem(0, "Teleport", 0);
	Menu->AddItem(0, "Morph", 1);
	Menu->AddItem(0, "Buff", 2);
	Menu->AddItem(0, "Learn", 3);

        if(AutoSend)
            Menu->SendTo(Plr);
    };

	void GossipSelectOption(ObjectPointer pObject, PlayerPointer Plr, uint32 Id, uint32 IntId, const char * Code)
	{

	GossipMenu * Menu;
        switch(IntId)
        {
		case 0: // IntId = 0, "Teleport"
			Plr->SafeTeleport(MapID, InstanceID/*Can be left NULL but i suggest using Plr->GetInstanceID()*/, xCoord, yCoord, zCoord, Orientation);
			break;
		case 1: // IntId = 1, "Morph"
			Plr->SetUInt32Value(UNIT_FIELD_DISPLAYID, ModelID);
			break;
		case 2: // IntId = 2, "Buff"
			Plr->CastSpell( Plr, dbcSpell.LookupEntryForced(BuffID), true);
			break;
		case 3: // IntId = 3, "Learn"
			objmgr.CreateGossipMenuForPlayer(&Menu, pObject->GetGUID(), 0, Plr);

			Menu->AddItem(0, "Spell1", 4);
			Menu->AddItem(0, "Spell2", 5);

			Menu->SendTo(Plr);
			break;
		case 4: // IntId = 4, "Spell1"
			Plr->addSpell(Spell1ID);
			break;
		case 5: // IntId = 5, "Spell2"
			Plr->addSpell(Spell2ID);
			break;
		};
	};
};

void SetupGuardGossip(ScriptMgr * mgr)
{
	GossipScript * Example = (GossipScript*) new GossipExample();
	mgr->register_gossip_script(NPC_ID,  Example);	
}

IntId - Sets position and unique option id, it helps you 2 fully control selection.

Menu - Menu pointer, it allows you to control menu.

IconId - Menu item IconId, for example inkeeper, Bank, auction... i don't know Id's except that this(1) is normal Cloud.

Now, using this template u can use some advanced functions, 2 modify something more than display id or 2 teach player spells, you can find them here:
C++ Function Libery - Credits to Gastricpenguin.

Now, before using this script you should populate configuration stuff, NPC_ID, ModelID and stuff. I hope this script helped you, if you have question ask it !

VIII - What's Compiling

1. To gather into a single book.
2. To put together or compose from materials gathered from several sources: compile an encyclopedia.
3. Computer Science To translate (a program) into machine language.



Here are some guides on compiling... The best ones.


Complete guide to Compile and run your Trinity core 3.X.X server.




First before we get started, Id like to tell everyone what ports they have to forward in order for everything to run smoothly.
3784
3306
3724
8085
8129
80
3307
To find out how to forward your ports, use PortForward.com - Port Forwarding Guides Listed by Manufacturer and Model

Now we can start, we are going to need a few programs.
1. * TortoiseHG-tortoisehg / stable / wiki / download — bitbucket.org

* TortoiseSVN-TortoiseSVN | The coolest Interface to (Sub)Version Control

* Visual Studio 2008 -Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition

* Xampp- apache friends - xampp for windows

* .NET Framework 3.5 (you should already have it via your Windows updates)-(google is your friend)

* SQLYog-(trial version, requires shot forum fillout)-Download

Please make sure all the downloads listed are ready for use, and downloaded correctly, before going on further.

-------Getting the source-------
Create a folder on your desktop, name it Trinitycore. Then right click it, click TortoiseHG Clone a Repository, Fill in the following code
Code:

Source Path: KingPin / TrinityCore2 / overview — bitbucket.org
Destination Path: (where ever your trinitycore file is located)

This will take a few minutes to complete.

-------Compiling the Source-------
Go to you C++ visual studio, go to the menu open up \win\TrinityCore&Script VC90.sln
Go on the top menu 'Build' and click on Configuration Manager. Make sure you set the build to 'release Win32' or 'release x64' depending on the Operating System Trinity will be running on.Compilation length differs from machine to machine, you should expect it to take 15-30 minutes.

You will find the following message once the compilation has finished successfully:

Build: 11 completed, 0 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped



-------Keeping your DB up to the current patch-------
Just click on your TrinityCore folder , and click 'TortoiseHG' -> 'SynchronizeClick on the button 'pull' at top of the window and it will start pulling the new/updated files. Once it is finished click on 'Update to Branch Tip' at the bottom of the window and you are done! Now you can repeat the compiling procedure above.


-------installing the DB-------
Here we are going to use the very own DB from trinity core, which is called TDB,
Create a folder, name it TDB, then right click, and click on SVN CHECKOUT, fill in the code -->
Code:

URL of Repository: trinitydatabase - Revision 21: /
Checkout Directory: (where ever your TDB file is located.

Click on 'ok'. Wait a few minutes (or less) and all the files will be pulled in the directory

-------Db install-------
The first two are to be taken from the Core directory, the world DB is to be taken from the TDB directory.

1) Create the three databases by importing C:\Trinity\sql\create_mysql.sql. You now have three databases called realmd, characters and world.

2) Import realmd database structure by importing C:\Trinity\sql\realmd.sql in the realmd DB.

3) Import characters database structure by importing C:\Trinity\sql\characters.sql in the characters DB.

4) Unzip C:\TDB\trunk\full_db\TDB_0.0.5_5254.zip and import world DB structure and contents by importing TDB_0.0.5_5254.sql in the world DB.

5) Import C:\TDB\trunk\updates\21_corepatch_world_5255_6376.sql.

6) Import C:\TDB\trunk\updates\21_updatepack_world.sql.

7) Import all *.sql update files from C\Trinity\sql\updates which start with a number above '6376' so that your DB structure is up to date with the revision you just pulled and compiled.

Import all files from C:\Trinity\sql\FULL directory in any order.

Note: Now your world DB structure is for TrinityCore2 revision 6376. You need to import the update files to have the proper world DB structure for the revision you just pulled and compiled.. You will notice they are all named XXXX_world.sql or XXXX_characters.sql or XXXX_realmd.sql, and you need to import the *_world_*.sql files only!

--------Setting up the server--------
Now that you have the Source compiled and the Databases installed, you need to set up the server.
Extracting dbc, maps and vmaps files

In order to run Trinity needs dbc and maps files. In addition, if you want to enable vmaps (mobs not seeing through walls, etc) you will need to extract them as well.
dbc and maps files

Find the application C:\Trinity\contrib\extractor\ad.exe and place it in your WoW Client directory. Before running this application, run your Client once (the login screen is enough). You need to do this so that the 'ad.exe' knows where your Client is and where to extract the files.

Now you can run 'ad.exe' and you will find two directories in your WoW Client called 'dbc' and 'maps'. Move them where your Trinity binaries are (C:\Trinity\bin\Win32_release or C:\Trinity\bin\x64_release).
vmaps (optional)

You can also extract vmaps which will take quite a while depending on your machine (1-2 hours).

Copy all files from C:\Trinity\contrib\vmap_extract_assembler_bin\ to where all your binaries, dbc dir and maps dir are. Run makevmaps_SIMPLE.bat. It will take a long time. It will first create a directory called 'buildings'. Then it will start extracting files to the directory 'vmaps'.

You will not see any progress in the application's window or anything else. You will just notice files being created in the 'vmaps' folder as it is proceeding. Do not stop the process.


Configuring the Server

First of all you need to change the extension of TrinityCore.conf.dist -> TrinityCore.conf and TrinityRealm.conf.dist -> TrinityRealm.conf (make sure you enabled "show known files extensions" in the Windows folder option). Then you can edit them.
TrinityCore.conf

Edit MySQL account username and password (instead of trinity;trinity).
Code:

LoginDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;trinity;trinity;realmd"
WorldDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;trinity;trinity;world"
CharacterDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;trinity;trinity;characters"

TrinityRealm.conf

Edit MySQL account username and password (instead of trinity;tirnity)
Code:

LoginDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;trinity;trinity;realmd"

If you extracted vmaps then edit the following
Code:

vmap.enableLOS = 1 -- set this to 1
vmap.enableHeight = 1 -- set this to 1
vmap.ignoreMapIds = "369"
vmap.ignoreSpellIds = "7720"
vmap.petLOS = 1 -- set this to 1

You need to make sure that TrinityRealm.exe directs incoming connections to your realm. In the realmd DB there is a table called realmlist. You need to edit the field address according to your needs:
Code:

127.0.0.1 -- Leave default localhost if you are connecting alone from the same machine Trinity runs on.
LAN ip -- Use the machine's LAN ip if you want other computers from the same network as Trinity's to connect to your server.
Public ip -- Use your public ip if you have friends and testers which need to connect your server from the internet.



Now for xampp
type local host in your browser, and go into phpmyadmin, then create your own user. This allows you to name the data base in Mysql what ever you want, and also use what ever password, when you create a host, make sure it's set to Local host.


If you have any problems please feel free to ask, if enough people comment this, and need a guide to get your server live, please say so. I'll make another guide.

How to make your private server public non hamachi by Gooze

A very easy 4 steps tutorial on how to make your server public!


IF your on a modem, skip step 1.

Step 1. Portforwarding.
Step 2. Find your external IP.
Step 3. Getting a dyndns domain.
Step 4. Changing Realmlist.cfg.


STEP 1.

Finding your routers IP.

Start up commandoprompt.
Type in: IPCONFIG
Navigate to your connection info, find the Standardgateway-ip and copy it!
Type it into your webbrowser. For example it could be http://192.168.1.1/

Login to your router and navigate to the portforwarding area.
More help can be found on your specific router on:
PortForward.com - Port Forwarding Guides Listed by Manufacturer and Model

Forwarding ports.


Now you've gotten onto your Router, and you're ready to portforward.
Go to commandoprompt again and type: IPCONFIG
Find your internet connection info again.
your ip should be something similar to this: 192.168.1.XXX
At the X's should be 2 or 3 numbers, that's your computer!

Now everytime you portforward make sure to navigate the ports to that IP!

The ports you need to forward is these:

80 - 80
3036 - 3036
3306 - 3306
3724 - 3724
6112 - 6119
6881-6999
8050 -8050
8093 -8093
8129 - 8129


Step 2.


Finding your External IP

To find your External IP go to one of these sites:

IPChicken - Shows Your External IP
What Is My IP - Shows Your External IP

Now you should have a new IP like "86.231.231.123" or something like that.


STEP 3.


Getting a dyndns domain.


Go to: DynDNS.com: Free DNS Hosting, E-mail Delivery, and VPS Hosting

Create an account on the website, login, then on the left side you'll see "My Services" Press that.
Navigate down to "Host Services" and press in the right side "Add Hostname"

Now what you need to fill out is:
Hostname (Put whatever you like fx. WorldofForsaken)
Next to hostname is something you can click and change to something like servegame.org or kicks-ass.net etc. Pick one you like.

Make sure that Service Type is marked as: "Host with IP address"


Now in the IP Address field put in the External IP you found in STEP 2.

Press add to cart(Dont worry it doesnt cost anything), Afterwards press next and finally press Activate Service.
Now you're done with STEP 3.

STEP 4.


Changing your private server config REALM.


Go to your config folder and open up for example: Arcemu-realms.cfg

Navigate to the following:

<Realm1 Name = "Your Servers Name here"
Address = "127.0.0.1:8129"
Icon = "PVP"
Colour = "1"
Population = "1.0"
TimeZone = "1">

Change it to the following:

<Realm1 Name = "Your Servers Name here"
Address = YOUR DYN DNS DOMAIN:8129"
Icon = "PVP"
Colour = "1"
Population = "1.0"
TimeZone = "1">

For Example:

<Realm1 Name = "Your Servers Name here"
Address = "WorldofForsaken.servegame.org:8129"
Icon = "PVP"
Colour = "1"
Population = "1.0"
TimeZone = "1">

Now it's public! If Not you've done something wrong, this is 100% working for sure.

change your WoW Realmlist.wtf to your dyndns name.
Example again:
set realmlist WorldofForsaken.servegame.org
