    DBC Research AreaTable.dbc

    So today, I decided to do a little DBC researching, and I found the Tutorial, telling how to do sanctuarys and the Ids to place into field 4

    19496 - Sanctuary (No duels allowed)
    19456 - Sanctuary (Duels allowed)
    17536 - Free for All (Used in places such as gurubashi arena)
    64 - Normal zone.


    but after going through all the DBC's i found these

    Code:
    17472
    50240
    65
    82048
    19752
    21568
    80
    4096
    1232
    32832
    16384
    1048656
    262208
    512
    Now, personally, i think blizzard just did some of these to throw people off who are trying to read the the DBC files. But a few of these are exetremely similar, like in Goldshire, Northshire etc. all the starting areas that horde are PvP in and not alliance. But the horde ones are the same way? Anyone got any answers to what these ID's are?

    Black text on a grey background is not good.

    I don't know what they are but I would assume it's a system where Horde is PvP flagged but Alliance is not by default, and vise versa etc.

    edit: Just read you said that, *shrug*. Should of posted this in model editing; there more knowledgeable regarding the DBC's.

    This might help you, even though some of them are still unknown...
