[Release] GreenGiant's Ascent 2.x.x Repack

[2dgreengiant]

Hello fellow mmowned people i thought i would release this as a few people have been asking on msn


Here is another quick release by me for all those wanting a good recent repack.

First
Download Mysql and use this guide to set it up:

OMG Click here for the mysql guide

Second - Core

Download the latest ascent files from here with LUA enabled and the LUA scripts added ^^.

Download link 1: Here


Extract the file to your desktop and edit the conf files according to your mysql username/password.


Thrid - Database

Download totorise SVN client from here: Clicky Here

Then make a folder on your desktop called ' Greengiant's Database ' and right click that folder, click ' SVN Checkout '.

Then in the URL place this:

 http://svn2.assembla.com/svn/nano_tech/GreenGiant's Database

Once thats all downloaded and leet open the folder and right click on 'tool.bat' and edit accordingly to your mysql username and password, then select a database name usually ascent.

Then double click 'Tool.bat' and select install database.

Then go back to your ascent conf files and add the database names to the reqired place, eg:

<LogonDatabase Hostname = "localhost"
Username = "root"
Password = "root"
Name = "login"
Port = "3306"
Type = "1">

usually the databse is logon for that.

<

WorldDatabase Hostname = "localhost"
Username = "root"
Password = "root"
Name = "world"
Port = "3306"
Type = "1">

<CharacterDatabase Hostname = "localhost"
Username = "root"
Password = "root"
Name = "worldchar"
Port = "3306"
Type = "1">>

where it says worldchar and world these are your databases you will need to change (unless worldchar and world is your database name:P)

Finally

Start logonserver.exe,voicechat.exe then ascent.exe.

Change your wow realmlist to 127.0.0.1 and your good to go.


Note: the database will be constantly updated so dont forget to use SVN update

Im new to this and Im having problems getting MySQL to work. I can get through the installation until the last step and the service fails to start. Its says "The service could not be started. Error: 0". Ive downloaded all the .net framework updates and I know I have to proper ports open. Any ideas as to what I can do to resolve the issue? Thanks

[soyuz1]

i cant donwload the db from the url, i just see this:
* ..
* Lua Scrips/
* Tools.bat
Thanks for the guide.

Like he says his database is on SVN not on the web so you nee turtoise svn to get it.

Edit:

there's no database in the svn actually.
Can you put the database in?

[jimmy1987]

Indeed, i get that error too.
Is it something on your svn's end or something on our end?

I'm just going to try updating it through my linux server

[2dgreengiant]

as long as you have tool.bat/world.sql/mysql.exe/mysql.data.dll it should work, im learning how to use svn so :P
