Serverside or Client Side

[thegwd]

Okay a little new to model edit fix, so I am guessing with 99% certainty it is all client side.

So my question is this: What are the benefits of doing something server side? What are the benefits of doing something client side?

I don't know much about how server side works, but it would seem easier to distribute an addition to WoW if it were client side.


I like to discuss theory on things like this, so please don't flame me. Theory is what makes progress so I would love to hear what you all think.

Nothing can be done serverside. NOTHING. People only see you (using an example of campfire ==> black portal) going upwards and it looks like your hacking. Or if you change tree's into grass they'll see you go through the trees while you just go through the grass.. And benefits of model editing in general, you can shape and meld the world, your armor etc to the way you want it to look (like shitty armor to Teir X (X= 1-9)..) if you look around you'll see what i mean by shape and meld, some people have created entirely new zones.
