thx for guide

Good guide man. Just curious if the heroics in this repack have scripted encounters in them?

I'm putting together a LAN party for a few friends of mine and we were hoping to do the heroics that WOTLK has to offer just for the hell of it.

Also, will I be able to edit the databases and add accounts?

dude, after step 4 of the first instructions, i clicked finish and the window goes away and no other window pops up. I went to the start menu and found mysql and tried both things but nothing is familiar to step 5. plz help!!!!!!!!!

Also another problem I have is the game crashes when I open up the character screen. Not the one to choose which character to log on to the one in game that shows your armor.

Umm hey, not really sure where to put this, couldn't seem to send a private message. Anyway.. I'll try here -> Awesome server etc! All went well just one thing i'm confuzzled about! If i attempt to teleport to Emerald Forest - It says normal difficulty is not available for Emerald Dream, whatever i try to do it keeps saying this.
Anyone know how i can get around this?

Thanks again! +rep.

I'd like to know this also, thanks.

I suggest you include a megaupload and rapidshare link, mediafire one isn't working for me right now. (Site isn't responding when I click download)

Edit: Finally got it.

Edit:
Works now. If it doesnt work at you, try starting it up: logonserver -> world -> Mysql. instead of mysql first.

''Connection failed due to: Unknown database 'characters' "

How do I fix this? Im getting it when I start up logonserver at the User Control.



Thanks!

im getting stuck connect when i try connect to my realm what i can do?

[DarkTyreal]

When I try to log in now it gets a cannot connect error now
Edit: the tutorial was slightly unclear(not too badly), fixed it.

the .com on the replacement must come off as well and BOTH must be replaced. My bad
Wish I could + rep
