My spawned npc's / creatures don't move

[ConnorJ]

Hello, I am using ArcEmu and I created my first home private server for wow 3.3.5a and I have created a little area with objects, a quest giver and some mobs, when I go within the Aggro range of the mobs, I take the damage but the mob doesn't path to me, Is there a way how I can quickly fix this without loosing anything I've done?

This is a screenshot of what I'm talking about

as you can see, the cows / chickens / sheep are all staying still :'( I just want them to have the normal AI that critters have, and the El Pollo Grande to come to the player to attack them.

Thanks in advance.

I have found out that if I move far enough away it moves closer but not next to the player at melee range. Does this npc cast spells that I can't see because the npc was removed from the game? or is it just a npc bug? And I still don't know why the critters are staying still.

Sounds like you enabled collision when collision data does not exist.

Go into your world configuration file, find "collision" and set it to 0. Restart the server.

If you want creatures to work with line of sight data you need to set collision to 1 and extract then assemble vector map (vmap) data for the server.

Similarly, you need to do the same for movement maps to get pathfinding to work.

You can find all the necessary information on the ArcEmu wiki, but you should not be using ArcEmu. It is dead and redundant. Take a look at TrinityCore.

Thanks, I don't have any of my maps showing either, Like even if I do, .cheat explore nothing changes, and does it say on the wiki how to extract and assemble vmap? and if I do this, will I loose all my .go spawn? and .npc spawns?

You need map data in order to explore stuff. No it doesn't affect the database.

Map extraction: DBC Extraction - ArcEmu-Wiki
Vmaps: Collision - ArcEmu-Wiki
