iDuggitz Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 I have some general questions that I cannot seem to find answers to anywhere in the forums. My hope is that the answers will help not only myself, but anyone else that may have the same questions venturing forward. I have a great install of 3.3.5a going on Ubuntu 16 and everything has been flawless (minus my Zlib problem that was easily resolved). I am up to the point of extracting the files and this brought up some questions. I was going to just TRY to do things and see if it worked, but I thought it better to suck up my pride and ask first. 1.) Do I need to have the 3.3.5a client installed for the map extraction? -I own WoW, but I have the newest patches installed all the way up to WoD. Do I need to have only up until 3.3.5a installed in order for the extractors to work? Or do they pull the appropriate files, regardless of revision? -How does one go about only installing 3.3.5a? Should I dust off my WoTLK dvd and install that and use the website I found to download the individual patches, block it from updating directly from Blizzard, and have atter? 2.) My server is running Ubuntu, but I play on a Windows PC... -The extractors that I compiled in Ubuntu I am assuming will not work on Windows (I tried...so it's more then an assumption). So do I need to completely compile the server on WIndows as well in order to snag the tools? -Can I simply install the appropriate version of WoW (see above) and copy the directories over to my server and use the tools I compiled on there to extract the files? I apologize if these questions have been asked before, but I could not personally find answers to them on the forums. I believe that once these questions are answered, the rest of the install will go off without a hitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chakuze Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 I have an answer to one thing for sure: You can extract the maps wherever you want and copy them to the server/computer afterwards. I have extracted them on my Mac and copied them to Ubuntu later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nay Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 You will need a 3.3.5a (12340) client version to extract 3.3.5a files. You will need that specific version (I heard that there are some torrents around that still have it). The extractors that you compile on Ubuntu won't work on Windows. However you can extract client files using Linux (as long as you have a wow client in your Linux install). If you want to run the extracts on Windows, you can clone the repo and in CMake select only TOOLS to compile instead of the whole thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iDuggitz Posted June 7, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2016 Thanks so much guys. You have saved me a crap-tonne of time. I hope this information is helpful for others as well :-) Unless I am just dumb and everyone knows these answers...then sorry... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TCE00008 Core don't starts i get: dbc exists, and has 13 field(s) (expected 12). Extracted file might be from wrong client version or a database-update has been forgotten. You need to extract the files from the same unmodified client version of the server you are trying to run, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nay Posted November 12, 2016 Report Share Posted November 12, 2016 You need 12340, not anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
