[GUIDE] Ascent 2.4.3 using AC Web Repack!

[arknaz]

IF UPDATING TO 2.4.3 USING AC-WEB REPACK Just Extract the contents of ARCEMU (latest for 2.4.3) into the Ascent / core folder!

Well....i dont really understand that lol i have 2.3 from the ac web...i think it was 7.5? maybe..

Do i just copy all the files, configs, dbc, script_bin,scrips, sql_updates,arcemu-logonserver.exe,arcemu-world.exe,libeay32.dll,libmySQL.dll,msvcp71.dll, and msvcr71.dll into C:\AC Web Ultimate Repack\Ascent ? If i do that how do i start it again? Normally i have the 4 dos windows, but i only see the two here, logon and world, which im assuming are equal to the ascent.exe and logonserver.exe from my version?

One other thing...will all my server files i have added, ie game objects custom weapons/armors still be in there? or will i have to re add them?

This is the best and easiest way to put up your own private server i tried for my first time and pulled it off no errors nothing just follow the steps properly and you have your serv up and running in no time thanks so much eastonch

Alright well I have to say that this is BY FAR the easiest to follow and best guide I have found to setting up a WoW server. Thank you so much for the info, as I found it sort of hard to come by a means of setting up a server that was easy or even that worked. Bookmarked for future reference! Thanks so much!

quick question when i try to connect on navicat it says " acces denied for user roo@localhost" how can i connect?!

[montana187]

Hey i had the same problem with not being able to connect make sure that once you have put ascent into your repack and replace with the old ascent go into configs folder go to realms config and make sure that all your addresses are set to the default ( 127.0.0.1 )

 * How to use this config file:                                                 *
 * Config files are in a block->variable->setting format.                       *
 * A < signifies the opening of a block, the block name is expected after that. * 
 * After the block name, a space and then the settings sperated by = / ' '.     *
 *                                                                              *
 * e.g.                                                                         *
 * <block setting="0" someval = "1">                                            *

 * Comments can be in C format, e.g. /* some stuff */, with a // at the start   *
 * of the line, or in shell format (#).                                         *

then go into your logon server and make sure its all the same

<Rates AccountRefresh = "600">

# Accepted Build Range Setup
#
#    These two directives set up which clients will be
#    allowed to authenticate with the realm list.
#
#    Set these to the same builds that the server was
#    compiled for.
#
#    As of the last update, version 2.1.1 was build 6739.

<Client MinBuild = "8089"
        MaxBuild = "9999">

# WorldServer Setup
#
#  RemotePassword
#    This directive controls the password used to authenticate with the worldserver.
#    It must be the same between the two configs. If it is not, your server will
#    not register.
#
#    Default: "change_me_logon"
#
#  AllowedIPs
#    This section MUST be completed, otherwise all attempts to link your servers will fail.
#    These "Allowed" fields are a space-seperated list of CIDR-form IP addresses that are allowed
#    to make server connections to your logonserver, and register realms.
#    For example, everything in the 127.0.0.* range would be:
#         127.0.0.0/24, as 24 of the bits must match the 127.0.0.0
#
#    To allow a single IP,
#         1.3.3.7/32, would allow only 1.3.3.7 to connect as 32 of the bits must match.
#
#  AllowedModIPs
#    In the same form as AllowedIPs, these are the IPs that are allowed to modify the database
#    (adding bans, GMs, account permissions, etc)
#

<LogonServer RemotePassword = "ascent"
             AllowedIPs = "127.0.0.1/32"
             AllowedModIPs = "127.0.0.1/32"> 

i learned that changing configs in the ascent folder doesnt really work you have to go into ascent then go into configs and change things there ( this is for offline play ) i hope this helps someone and i can get rep cuz i kinda been leeching for a while but im trying to stop lol if you still cant get your server to play post your configs ill try my best to aid you in your situation

Try setting your realm list to WoW default don't open ascent mysql nothing just set me realm list to default and update this should work

set realmlist us.logon.worldofwarcraft.com
set patchlist us.version.worldofwarcraft.com

[pockets08]

oook i did liek u said but when i started th AC repack controller shortcut on my desktpo. and start MYSQL, then click Logonserve,r i dont get it, i get an error sayin it dont exis,t then i gotta go through all the ascent folders and start it manually.

[terrybogard21]

ok I made a screenie of the last issue I have. just connect the link so that you can see the pick.

http ://i38.tinypic.com/675e0x.jpg

For some reason I just can't connect to the server. I believe I have some type of file config wrong so any clues?

nvm you can excuse all that before. I have a fully working server...go me.

BTW; to anyone who is having the issue of "side by side configuration" message. You need to install .NET Framework version 3.5 first.

[liberator48]

uhm.. there is no gm command for morphing is there? i see a demorph but no morph. also in earlier repacks you was able to create accounts in game ;S
otherwise, thanks.

[montana187]

Yeah same for me to play server i have to open manually :S

[jericho13y2j]

worst guide ever >

[solarplexus11]

I have some trouble with the navicat "test connect" when I press the button it says error..

There is a pop-up that says
"recieved invaild response to SSL negotiation: A"

And the other says
"server closed the connection unexpectedly This probably means the server terminated abnormally before or while proccesing the request."

(picture's wouldn't upload)/:

And yes i had MySQL open.

Help please..!

I had this same problem. I couldn't get anywhere without this working. I spent hours toiling over this. Then I realized, ... I had installed Navicat PostgreSql!!!! So I uninstalled it... I went all out and got the full version Navicat for MySql from a torrent site.. lol. First thing I noticed was in the "new connection" options screen, theres an SSL tab that wasn't there before. Check it... IT WORKS now!

Thanks for the tutorial.
