Azerothcore WoTLK Repack (Playerbots + Individual Progression + 32 other modules)

[Aldebaraan]

There are some errors in world server console:
WaypointMovementGenerator::LoadPath: creature Defias Thug (GUID Full: 0xf130000026004653 Type: Creature Entry: 38 Low: 18003) doesn't have waypoint path id: 0
WaypointMovementGenerator::LoadPath: creature Eye of Dar'Khan (GUID Full: 0xf130003fc0000807 Type: Creature Entry: 16320 Low: 2055) doesn't have waypoint path id: 0

is it okay or my data is somehow got corrupted?

Those are harmless error messages. Ignore them.

Tried Wailing Cavern, sever crushed several times. Could not figure out is it due to new update or not. But i applied the last update to individual progression version.

There are errors, i previously didn't see

WorldSession::Update ByteBufferException occured while parsing a packet (opcode: 149) from client 127.0.0.1, accountid=202. Skipped packet.

*SmartScript::ProcessAction: SMART_ACTION_TALK: EntryOrGuid 3027400 SourceType 9 EventType 1 TargetType 7 using non-existent Text id 0 for talker 15438, ignored.

Almost impossible to play. Crushed every 5 minutes. (inside the dungeon)

Seems like crushing happens after killing bosses, but not immediately. Finished dungeon by exiting after every boss kill, and restart server.

Test it without playerbots. and post crash log.

Sorry, but when I tried to solo dungeon with my 80lvl, the creatures scaled to 79 elite level. So I was unable to solo.

I retest with another character and playerbots. Kill Anaconda and just before Cobrah server crushes. Dump and crush log attached

[Fantaseour]

will try to test on earlier update, but not today

UPD. Tested it! Oh man, the previous update works flawlessly! Run through entire caverns without a single crush! One note -- the roll on loot is much more clean than in the new update. In the new update quest items such as deviant hide are multiple times doubled as per every party member. And only the last could be looted.

I think the loot mechanics probably with playerbots is the cause of the crush. But I could not confirm.

PS the previous update link:
https://mega.nz/file/4QwBzSia#KgyyJs...ouGuu_HDosBksw (from my browser history)

In case somebody needs to rollback. Probably it would be useful to leave links to the previous updates in the main post.

Another quick observation. While individual progression made druid travel form available from lvl30, seems like mod-learnspells ignores individual progression and automatically adds travel form at lvl 16 as it is on WOTLK

Did you replace the configuration files (.conf) as well? Maybe it has something to do with new additions to them.

[Fantaseour]

Yes. Replaced (they really have additions!), than corrected, using file compare utility -- starting progression level, player settings in world server, two sided auction, autobalance (5 player min-max). I did increase number of bots, but then returned to default values. Will try to update again and retest. But don't know when this should happen )

Anyway. Thank you for such a great work! Happy New Year!

For those interested/not aware, there is a nice bot control addon Multibot GitHub - Macx-Lio/MultiBot: User interface for AzerothCore-Module "Playerbot" by Liyunfan1223.

Firstly, sorry I'm new to this!

I got the server up and running on my PC, created account and no issues.

Thought I would try logging in from my steam deck (running windows)

Forwards ports and tested open.
Edited the database thing for my ip's

Changed the Client config on steam deck.

Logs in fine, asks me to pick server, my server is showing as I renamed it, and showing a 1 character.

When I click OK, I get disconnected from the server.

I've tried new accounts, bots on/off.

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong?

Any suggestions??

Thanks, also is there another way to donate, PayPal recently closed my account for I don't know what reason

Do you even get to the character selection screen? And does the worldserver crash when you get disconnected? If yes please post the crash log.

About paypal: Buy me a coffee isn't available in my country so paypal is the only option. Sorry.

Nothing i can do about that. Module makers do not consider other modules when making their own.

I managed to login by disabling my firewall and adding my local IP instead of IP to the realmlist, so the issue is my end somewhere.

At least I'm getting somewhere

Due to some issues with the recent core update which archived 2023's updates, i am releasing this update of the repack (no individual progression version) as a full release. This means that you guys have to transfer your characters to it using the pdump command or my powershell scripts (read the FAQ).

Also: DO NOT REPLACE THINGS ON YOUR CURRENT REPACK FOLDER. Otherwise you will lose your character data! Extract the new repack somewhere, transfer your characters and then delete the old repack.

And i added a link to a the previous update of the individual progression repack for those having issues.

[Fantaseour]

Just tested individual progression version again (new update, an old one works fine). And unfortunately crash took place. No changes in cofigs (unpack distro, apply patch). Just run server, create account, char, levelup, gear, and summon bots. Go to wailing caverns, kill anaconda, go for cobrah... crash just before meet cobrah. I will try the newest version (without individual progression). Will report the result.

[Fantaseour]

Just tested newest distro without individual progression patch. Clean install, no changes to config. Level up, gear, summon bots, go to wailing caverns.

I was able to reach Lord Pythas (Killed Anaconda, Cobrah, Kresh and rare dragon). And crashed unfortunately, right after defeating him. Crash log attached. Also quest loot was doubled:

WithoutIndividualProgressionCrash.zip

NB. Loot roll was long before crash... I won the item, and then the server crashed.

Will try to solo it. Then will report the result.
