Hi there!

Any chance to get working on Linux?

How i create and populate Databases with this source?

Thanks

[dfdf]

Where is the full world database?

[brotalnia]

The database was not leaked, just the templates are there. You can adapt the cmangos database to work with the core, but you'll get a lot of errors while it is loading. You should wait for the official database to be released.

Hi.

Anyone have got compiled in Linux?

[yoyoyo]

It appears the core got a DMCA (seems odd, for an illegal private server to be making copyright claims) but anyone got a mirror?
