Ok, I've solved my first problem ( I hope). There is another point of the guide that's not so easy to understand: Run "BackgroundDownloader.exe" to see if there is additional patch info only for the following patches: wow-4.0.6.13596-to-4.0.6.13623 wow-4.3.0.15050-to-4.3.2.15211 wow-4.3.3.15354-to- and 4.3.4.15595 Make sure your tools are updated by checking "Launcher.exe", the version should be 4.2.1.2756. Run the tools updater if it isn't (don't run the launcher) Copy the MFIL / TFIL from the collection you downloaded to the WoW root Overwrite any that came with the patches Run "backgrounddownloader.exe" The first two will download approx. 7 GB, the last approx. 4 GB I have to run the backgrounddownloader during the patching process (when i patch to the related version of mfil and tfil) or when I've completed the patching of my client (at version 4.3.4)? I've already applied all the patches,but the backgroundownloader doesn't download anything (sorry for my english). Maybe I had to launch the bd when I was patching the client to versions 4.0.6.13623,4.3.2.15211 and 4.3.4.15595...

Can I use your tools if I have a enGB client? I'd like to read the readme files (or instructions) in your archives,but I'm not interested in downloading enUS patches... The guide is not clear in this point: If you have a file such as "wow-0-xxxxx-Win-final.MPQ" (where xxxxx matches the patch revision), run this from your WoW root: I have to create a bat file with the instructions in the quote or to use the commands prompt? Edit 12/20 I tried to install the patch file by launching the Blizzard Updater from the windows command prompt and I got this error message: The file "patch.cmd" in archive "F:Dati ojfGiochiWorld of Warcraft - CataclysmUpdateswow-update-13287.MPQ" could not be opened, because an error 2 occurred. If this problem persists, you may be able to solve it by uninstalling and then reinstalling the game. If you are unable to correct this problem, please contact Blizzard Technical Support. (MPQFile::OpenFromArchive) I read another topic (by Strucker) asking for my same trouble. My patch is missing the win-final file,but I'm patching an enGb client. I'll try to use the ones you uploaded.I hope they'll work fine.

Thank you!

No,I have a enGB client so I downloaded the patch from wowwiki as suggested at the top of the guide =(

I tried to download the "3.3.x to 4.0.1" patch,but when I unpack it (it's a rar file) I receive an error message saying "CRC is incorrect".I downloaded it again,but the same message appeared. I'm desperate. After 16 hours of download I do not know what to do. What do you suggest? T.T

Yes,is just like that XD I'll remedy straightaway.

I think that some files are missing.Probably,I have a corrupted client... I'll download it again.Thank you. :-) Anyway,I noticed that a message appears in the mapextractor log: Map & DBC Extractor =================== Loading enGB locale MPQs Detected locale: enGB Detected client build 15050 for locale enGB Extracting dbc files... Extracted 328 DBC files Extracting db2 files...

I got Cataclysm by updating Wotlk with the Blizzard Launcher,maybe I could try to manual patch my copy of Wotlk or I have to download a fresh Cata client?

Hello,vmaps extractor worked fine for me (I created the "makevmaps_simple.bat" as suggested in the guide),but when I try to launch worldserver it gives me this error: Realm running as realm ID 1 Using World DB: TDB 434.05 Using enUS DBC Locale Will clear `logs` table of entries older than 1209600 seconds every 10 minutes. Using DataDir ./ WORLD: MMap data directory is: ./mmaps VMap support included. LineOfSight: 1, getHeight: 1, indoorCheck: 1 VMap data directory is: ./vmaps VMap file './vmaps/530.vmtree' is missing or points to wrong version of vmap file. Redo vmaps with latest version of vmap_assembler.exe. Correct *.map files not found in path './maps' or *.vmtree/*.vmtile files in './vmaps'. Please place *.map/*.vmtree/*.vmtile files in appropriate directories or correct the DataDir value in the worldserver.conf file. Something went wrong?
