This would be a huge project requiring a lot of programming, nevermind the database work.

Make it yourself.

Make it yourself.

^This, hell you even have a source to work from.

Yeah because I can totally do it myself when i'm asking someone else to make it for me...?

Spectre can you help :P?

Cool story bro.

No I'm afraid my work with conquest as well as most of my custom scripts is private, you'd be far better off figuring it out yourself.

I would however not base any work off the old source as it's simply horrible, I didn't know shit back when I wrote the first versions. Everyone tries to go the insanely complex route when building conquest, it's really really not that complex, just requires some creativity.

You'd be better off figuring out yourself because you'll actually understand the script, be able to adjust it as needed. Most people who used my old script could only figure out how to change their server banners to say 'Home of CityConquest!'

I'm sure you could do it if you just started the work, it's easy to get bogged down thinking about all the shit you need to expect to work towards but one step at a time should bring you to your destination.

Excellent advice for any aspiring programmer. +Repx3

after reading this, i really wanna learn c++, where should i start and how? and no, i have read wikipedia quite a few times and it doesnt help me for shit. I need help to learn only WoW related shit. not how to say hello world.

Wikipedia, or any other encyclopedia, is not the place to learn programming.

You'll need to assess your current level of knowledge; What do you know? Do you know what programming actually is, and the common basics of it? If not, you'll need to start with that; Can you program in a different language, which isn't object-oriented? You'll need to learn the basics of object-oriented programming. Do you already program in a high-level object-oriented language, such as Python? You'll need to learn how C (and therefore C++) differs from high-level languages, how to manage memory manually, how pointers work, etc. Only after understanding these basic subjects can you start scripting and developing for an existing core.

The information is out there; you just need to reach and grab it, be it books, websites or even tutors - whatever suits your learning process. I might be able to give you some pointers on where to start once you know what you actually want to learn, but you'll have to lead yourself once you're there.

Contact me if you need any help.

[Ballwinkle]

Do you have any books or websites that you would reccomend?

[TheSpidey]

About what subject?

[The-Eradicator]

Incidentally, you might want to read this.

[thebigman]

About what subject?

C++

:< I really dont wanna look for sources myself, I have no access to books, nor the want to read about it via books. Too much irelevent information contained in them.

Id prefer a tutor or website.

[TheSpidey]

You entirely missed my point.

I'll ask you again; What do you know so far? Only after I know what your current level is can I properly direct you to the proper resources which won't waste your time nor talk way above your knowledge pool.

I know that, making nef muh bish is bad



Pls good spider sir, show me your ways D=
