  1. The Barrens graveyard is default which is used if no other suitable one is found. Apart from server side maps (not really sure if re-generating does anything in this case, but it has been a long ass time since the last time I did this), make sure you updated DBC files in server's files as well (you did not mention doing that in the post) and you may also be able to find something in worldserver log file, if there is for example an issue with pairing some references.
  2. Next time put more effort into trying to search on your own before posting . I don't update nor support the toolpack anymore but you will likely find what you need there.
  3. I'd suggest providing more details and preferably screenshots. "they really look far away from what they should like" - what does that mean?
  4. My experience with server side map extractors is that they do not correctly open all MPQs in search for Map.dbc. It's likely that the vmap extractor opens outdated Map.dbc, perhaps from the Locale folder. To prevent that from happening, I was putting my DBCs into Locale as well. I am not 100% sure about the specifics, but there was somewhere a tutorial for server side maps I wrote here.
  5. Hey, in case you still wonder how to go about this, I went through how the WoW modding works in general here: It's really just a theoretical introduction, but should outline how things work in general and give you the required basics of what to look for next. If you want to recolor items, you will need to find their BLP texture filex by using WMV and/or their Item DBC files, and you will need to be able to make your own custom MPQ patch, and distribute it to your players. Best of luck!
  6. Hi. There's a DBC file which makes sure the game has a minimap associated with a game (world/continent) map, and which also makes sure that the game shows the player position-indicating cursor on the right spot. I explained the way this works on WotLK hopefully in big enough detail here: Now, you still might have to face issues with exploration. Unfortunately, I never toyed with that, but I hope this should at least give you some entry to the following steps required. Best of luck!
  7. Hey guys, as I keep getting questions from time to time, please note that I have retired from modding in early 2020. I am still reading PMs and responding to them, however, I am starting to forget some things at this point, I no longer have my tools on my PC and I don't know what is up to date, what has changed etc. My ability to help you is thus limited and is becoming limited more and more as I am simply growing out of touch with WoW modding.

    If you want to contact me, feel free to, and you do honor me by doing so - truly - just keep in mind that I am unlikely to be the best person to help you. I recommend reaching out to active contributors or making simply a public thread on this forum instead of writing to my PM. It's likely to be both faster and more effective way for you to get the help you need. It has been a blast here regardless. Stay strong, and keep making great thing happen, with or without me. All I ever wanted was to help other people to do even better, than they were doing so far. Each modder has potential of making many people happy. And that makes me happy whenever I am even a small bit of help for that modder.

  8. 500 rep, 426 subs on YT... Guys, I am not even modding anymore :D. Thank you though!

    Just wanted to add that if this is your very first attempt to do something in Noggit, its very good, I'd say way better than my was:P. Btw, updated series Alrineer kindly posted here, it has way more parts on YouTube already and I haven't updated it here for quite some time.

    If you want to fix that green texture issue, Philli made a very quick tutorial here. You need to create _s version of texture you used there, because it apparently doesn't exist in client for whatever reason (it is the case for some vanilla unused textures):

    What I would recommend here is considering using either smaller brush or spray brush to make road edges at least a little bit jagged. If it was your intention to make roads completely straight (including their edges, because, idk, someone keeps them that way), then its fine, but otherwise it looks a little but weird. Cobblestone roads don't get straight edges in forest.

    Something I noticed here - all those little bushes around road seem to have the very same rotations. Try using random rotations instead, it looks a little bit weird this way.
  13. Couldn't have done that better myself.
  14. Tool ItemSync 2.0 is out.

  15. Finishing development of 2 tools and going to work on another tool, most of if not all of them for WotLK-MoP. In need of testers at the moment!

  16. I absolutely hate and despise people who steal content of others and claim it to be their own. Guess what, I also absolutely hate and despise people who troll, re-create accounts after getting banned, attempt DoS attacks or even spread malware and try to damage work of GMs and fun of players on project just because they can or just because they don't like that particular project for any reason they find suitable. You want us to fight internet kid morons we despise and hate - by becoming internet kid morons we despise and hate? Isn't it obvious to you how ridiculously stupid and childish is thing you are asking of us?
  17. This project again, and this kind of "discussion" - again? As much as I feel for you Roccus (provided you deserve it and you are not telling us just part of story which is convenient for you - no offence meant, just realize that we are not informed enough to objectively judge), this doesn't lead anywhere. I am not really fan of "Just ignore idiots.". Thats very stupid and short-sighted statement if taken too literally, yes. Having said that, giving too much attention to idiots doesn't make things better, either. Everything with moderation. And there was already one topic about RPHeaven here and note that it is closed and moved to trash bin, and for some reason.

    3D Armors

    All models attached to character are attached to certain point on character model. For example held items (weapons and such) are placed with their origin (pivot point, whatever you want to call it) into the middle of closed hand. You need to figure out where to place models in 3d so they are correctly placed on character model. Important bottom line: change scale, rotations and translation of model in 3d. No, you can't do really (feasibly) this with finished M2 model in 010.
  21. That depends, a lot, on amount of players you are expecting, also on size of your world (or more importantly amount of server-side content - gameobjects, NPCs and so on). My configuration which worked more than fine for 100 players online in a single zone without any issues was following: 60GB SSD 2x 1.7GHz Xeon CPU core 8GB RAM Note that 60GB of disc space is waaay more than you would ever possibly need to use. OS, TC, DB and regular backups can fit into 30GB, as long as your DB isn't really very large and you aren't keeping really lot of backups without clearing very old ones. RAM and CPUs were also handling themselves rather well and I wouldn't be surprised if this configuration was enough even for 200 players. But 100 were max I ever tested.
  22. I am czech. And people ignorant enough to call me russian are usually from USA, and I hate when they do so, as communistic times turned this into insult for me. But I know you probably just misremembered something, so its OK. Yes, provider I know is from czech, so not very suitable for hosting russian server - unneccessarily high ping time.
  23. wedos.cz Thats czech provider, obviously. I have absolutely 0 experience with foreign providers, as there was no need for me to ever buy server elsewhere.
  24. Went through whole album, 10/10 is the only thing to say.
