Might I recommend that you try and start with 335a (wrath private serv), and play with that? IMO. 335a wiki is easier and 10x more stable, as well as bit more complete. Not 100%, but at least the wiki is pretty fool proof. Once your feet is wet and gained more experience, you can try 7.2x

I'm assuming you are using Windows (hence the worldserver.exe window automatically closes). open cmd.exe first, then run worldserver.exe. That will help you identify exactly what the error is printing on your screen, that will also prevent the window from automatically closing.

I'm thinking you need to go away. That's an outdated community with a population of about 40. That's my thought.

a shot in the dark here... I got a few of those also from just a handful of players and i (silently) observed some of the players in GM stealth mode, once it alerted me. They were doing nothing out of the ordinary or anything mischievous, but I did notice that they would occasionally run in place... TL:DR; it may be the low network packets (timing check). I think they were just having network issues with their slow ISP. Other players were just fine. So I would hate to kick players because of cheap shitty ISP. I just let them do their questing.

idk about that. But, I do believe you still have the issue with outside clients connecting to your server, unless it was all handled internally like China.

That's not entirely true. Population is the key. There is ample evidence of Blizz going after large and medium sized private servers that didn't charge a dime for their service. There are many servers that run "off shores" and charge for their services (pay to play). They just need to keep the population extremely low and not advertise the shit out of it like "some private server groups" that got hammered by Blizz and had to be taken down asap. The larger you are, the more vulnerable you are. No one is "safe".

ah gothca... my bad.. I guess the simple question is, why download it as a zip? Actually... I think there is a way to make a simple batch file (windows) to run that cross references the fresh zipped repo with TC using git api, then interjects or creates a new (genrev.cmake), before someone runs cmake, it would be an extra step for zip downloaders, but would work. I would just recommend to clone it.

I don't quite understand what you are saying... You can check the revision while downloading as a zip.

I don't see boost in your cmake output. Did you skip a step? Add an environment variable to "System" variables named "BOOST_ROOT" pointing to your Boost installation directory, e.g "C:/local/boost_1_60_0". (Make sure that it does not have a trailing slash. If you still get problems, add the same variable in the "USER" variables section too, like shown in the image below.) Notice that this image shows the version number 1.59.0 - use your actual version number in your settings. Restart CMake if it was already running

Update your boost library. It's looking for a 64 bit boost.

The reason I asked about 335a, was that doesn't look like 7.x version of WoW, my directory has like battle.net, wow-64, etc...

I'm not sure what that doc is... This for 335a, correct? Just use https://trinitycore.atlassian.net/wiki/display/tc/Installation+Guide that sounds like a repack

Is port 1119 whitelisted in your firewall?

just do a git fetch for that exact commit hash

It's never too late to join. It's available here: https://trinitycore.atlassian.net/wiki/display/tc/Installation+Guide The community will be glad to answer any questions you have with the offical TC 3.3.5. As for the repack that you mentioned, that is horribly outdated.

Sounds like you are learning Linux OS (and using Ubuntu GUI)... Best to use a terminal and open it up first, then run the binaries, that way you can catch errors/warnings. Just follow the linux wiki closely. I'm assuming you are compiling on the Ubuntu machine, right?

Just curious.. Why not build from Keira2 with the additional features? I personally like LAMP (web) projects for compatibility and open source. I used Truice a long time ago, but yeah that is dead for quite some now

Actually, read what he mentioned. The point is (not the version comparison), but he had an issue with NPCs not spawning and added about npc menus. The creature_template has to do with one of the possibility of npcs not showing up or not defined correctly with the stats for that npc. As for the menus, no that is not the creature_template (obviously), but I then added about the fact that we may not have all the data yet.

.. One thing that I notice is that a lot of users keep trying to compare 3.3.5a and master. They are completely different. period. ^ this particular issue sounds like a client issue on your Mac and not a specific TC world/authserver issue. This is very known for old clients running on newer MacOS. Everyone I know including myself can not run old clients on the MacOS. They just no longer work intentionally. It's like trying to run a 64 bit application on a very very old Windows 32 bit OS. It just won't work. (except the other way around client is old and the OS is too new) I hacked an old Mac version client (335a) to work on the latest Sierra, however it has video issues. It can't detect the screen and will not adapt to run the newer video library with MacOS (El Capitan / Sierra). I can't speak for older versions of MacOS. Let me know if you have any more questions about old clients, running on newer versions of Mac. Just run a Windows version on Wine within MacOS. You will have 0 issues.

This is similar, but known: https://github.com/TrinityCore/TrinityCore/issues/19527 You have to keep in mind that 7.x is still new and the devs+community are collecting as much data as possible. Even for pre-existing npc's wil have a different menu, quest, or text than the previous version. The short answer is, don't compare 335a and master

The client doesn't do anything. This is all server based commands and entries. The npc add command will only spawn what exists in the creature_template table. So if you make adjustments to the npc, it may default +/- to what that is set. As for the npc that don't show up, could be a lack of npc entries in the db, incorrect information, a different phase, etc... I have only played around with 7.x TC. I mainly stay within my 335a world

Sounds like what Aokromes mentioned that you overwrote your own branch or clone. when you do a git clone, try placing it in a directory other than Trinitycore. For example: TrinityCore335a and for the master branch create a directory for TrinityCoreMaster (or whatever you want) Unix example (if you are using linux): git clone -b 3.3.5 git://github.com/TrinityCore/TrinityCore.git trinitycore335a git clone git://github.com/TrinityCore/TrinityCore.git trinitycore7x

Do NOT use navicat! https://trinitycore.atlassian.net/wiki/display/tc/Optional+Software Please note that the software called Navicat is NOT supported due to issues with how it handles SQL-files with "/* */"-style comments.

Your db is empty. If it's not, then check your configs

The links are the same, but you must select 3.3.5 in the branch selection 3.3.5 (wotlk client) This will clone 3.3.5a branch, this is the RECOMMENDED branch for starters. Repository to clone: https://github.com/TrinityCore/TrinityCore Destination: C:\Trinity Subdirectory to create: <none> Branch: 3.3.5 Personal Repository: Yes
