Installer is 32bit but can install either i think.

MySQL installer is what you want from the MySQL website, community edition. https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/windows/installer/5.7.html

No not needed. You need regular mysql which should be mentioned in the guide if you are following that?

I've moved this topic and the other Playerbot topics into the community projects forum to help streamline the forums a bit. This topic will remain pinned.

@Lidocain might be worth reaching out to me on discord when you have the time and see if we can work getting your bots into the mangos core if they are more updated then the current ones we use? 😄

The migration to OpenSSL 1.1 is now complete!

Hey,

The prefix thing for this topic is for which Mangos Core you are using, Zero is classic, one is TBC and so on.

Can you confirm in the Mangosd.conf you have the following set to either the hamachi IP or 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0 means bind all addresses).

BindIP                       = "0.0.0.0"

Don't touch the ones ending in "Info" those are the IPs the mangosd looks at for the various databases and have nothing to do with external connections.

I would suggest disabling the windows firewall while you are testing this to make sure its not interfering.

I may be able to assist you with this later over discord if im free.

[Advisory] Upcoming Planned Migration to OpenSSL 1.1.x branch

With the recent change by OpenSSL in their Release Strategy we are planning to migrate all cores over to OpenSSL 1.1.x branch by Dec 2019.

The first step in this process will be raising the minimum allowed level of OpenSSL used with Mangos to 1.0.2, currently you can use any version from 1.0.x - We plan for this change to take place this year, perhaps even this summer.

You can follow the development notes on the OpenSSL issue on the tracker and make comments on the upcoming changes

EDIT: This was completed on 12th April 2018

Just out of curiosity are you planning on using the installer script to update?

If you do, take backups of databases first as the script will wipe existing databases as far as i know. Then you can restore those and apply the updates via the separate database update script.

Will push this to the dev team and see if i can find out for you

Hey there,

I just tidied up your post for you  Also passed this along to @Necrovoice

A working World Of Warcraft Cataclysm 4.3.4 Client can be downloaded via magnet torrent.

magnet:?xt=urn:btih:848c1f366be2d7fbe4b69bd6bfb57daabd767b08&dn=World%20of%20Warcraft%204.3.4.15595

You will need a program such as uTorrent for this.

I passed this onto @antz who made easybuild, hopefully he will be able to help with this.

Only thing I can think of, did you install visual studio selecting the c++ option ? You have no antivirus that is blocking it?

Sadly I think Tuker has not had the time to be working on this lately.

Are u going to post the link?

It will be once we have a CMS to post.

Original topic links have been updated. All torrents from what I can tell are active at this time March 2017.

Great write up Unkle  Sorry we had to drag you out or retirement yet again! Me & @antz keep doing this hehe

@kurJay
I hope Unkle's reply has helped you understand a little more where MaNGOS comes from, as Unkle said, if you have anymore questions feel free to ask. Hopefully I wont have to pull Unkle out of retirement again

I have added WoWhead tooltips to the getmangos website. This change is site-wide and immediate.

Methods of inserting tooltip popups.

1. Using the standard insert link and linking to a wowhead.com item page will get you a popup in a link.
   1. Text with a popup link
2. Click the new image in the editor bar above (second from the left in the top row) and enter the item ID.
   1. Linked by itemid
3. Linking an image. Exactly the same as the above methods.
   1. 

The above will work anywhere on the site. This means you can link items in bug reports, forum posts etc.

I've passed this onto our Dev lead who is best to reply to this

So for a while now we have had a Member map here on the site - https://www.getmangos.eu/membermap/

Its great to see what parts of the world people are using MaNGOS from, so if you wish please feel free to add a pin with your location and reply here so we know to check it out.

You don't have to be exact, you can put a town, nearby city or general area. And before anyone tries.... no registering multiple accounts and making weird shapes out of the pins... I'm watching  and so are the mods.

Hey,

You need to clone with git. And make sure you have the --recursive command in the sentence when cloning, there are other repositories besides the one you linked that it pulls from.

git clone --recursive https://github.com/mangoszero/server -b develop21

Antz has kindly written some new installation guides for windows users.

You can view the main EasyBuild build guide here:

All the guides are located here: https://www.getmangos.eu/wiki/documentation/installation-guides/

Should you encounter any issues or require assistance with something mentioned in the guide you can reply to this topic (simple issues only). More complex problems should be in a dedicated topic.

We just wanted to make this clear, if you are new to Mangos and need help with something, please ask for it in the help & support forum.

We sometimes see posts from people claiming Mangos does not run or other issues and moving to xyz fork of another Mangos based emulator.

If you post such a post and you have not previously requested help from us prior to posting such a topic

it will be treated as troll topic and as such be deleted and your account permanently banned.

This cannot be made any clearer and will be strictly enforced.

If you don't like what we do and don't want our help, then please leave quietly - we don't need the hassle or the drama.

Hey,

would be interested in giving this a try.

Few things I would recommend:

• Full PHP 7 compatibility, the older versions are not far off end of life so best to think ahead.
  
  • The 5.* branch runs out of active support at the end of 2018, while they will provide security fixes PHP 7 is where development should be at. I say this because of the speed at which PHP 7 runs at now, it should not be a massive job to change over, I could even provide a hosting enviroment for you to test with on PHP 7 with opcache / PHP-FPM.
    

  [*]An armory of some kind

  [*]Ability to lookup characters, guilds, items

  [*]Game Master section on the main site

  • Ability to manage existing tickets
    
    • Maybe look into the ability to create tickets, we could look into expanding the GM system to work with a CMS to provide ticket history and allow the GMs to close a ticket and send the in-game survey to a user etc.
      

    [*]Ability to change level on characters, gold, name, guild and so on.

    • Some things might mean you would need to lookup in the database for example guilds, could be done with AJAX to provide a list as you type.
      

    [*]Ability to send (remove? don't know if this is possible) items to a character.

  [*]Admin section could include

  • Viewing of server logs, would need functionality added on our end to pull logs from the logs folder, but probably something we could help with
    
    • Character logs, you could lookup a character and see what changes have happened in a simplified view.
      

    [*]Ability to set MoTD, Server name, port, and pretty much every option in the server config file via the site

    • We would need to provide you the functionality to do this, this would include pulling current values running on the server and giving the server the ability to write the config file.
      
    • I will bring this up to antz to look at (only if you are interested).
      

This is an extensive list, but ultimately what I personally would love to see happen. I think something like this once the base is built should be put on github and maybe you would get some help and make it open-source.

@antz @H0zen see what you two think

Playerbot system and Ahbot are all planned to be moved to there own daemons and will likely receive massive updates/optimizations at the same time.
