There are many sites that allow you to scan your ports to see if they are open. One of my favorites is GRC Shields Up

https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2

Or you can use others

http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/

Check that both 3724 (realmd) and 8085 (mangosd) are open while your server is running.

Just tried it out. It works great! Easy and fun to use! Thanks

Try Arch Linux. It's what I like to use.

Hey hum... im trying to start a new live private server and i choosed mangos cause i love mangos,i got every thing i need to start my server but i dont know how to script anything =(

Anyway, my problem is that when i enter an instance or a raid i cant see other people and they cant see any one, i only can see them on the mini map...

I have experienced this a couple times before. Make sure your gm is set to off and you are part of that group. Leave the instance and re-enter. This usually fixes the issue. If it does not, you may need to just re-compile a fresh new updated mangos and it should help.

+ When i try something like .namego its say "You only can use this command if your not into an instance or the leader of the group" ... something like that =\\

You need to be group leader for it to work. If you are not part of a group, it should work reguardless.

Yes, I would also be very grateful to have an updated patch. Thanks everyone!

heres a small howto

Agreed. Screen is what I use. You can try this script to start up mangosd and realmd in the background.

note* rename mangos-world to mangosd and mangos-realmd to realmd.

Other than this code, you can try to use the 'nohup' command:

nohup ./mangos-world &

nohup ./mangos-realmd &

version=0.1.9

MANGOSDIR=/opt/mangos/

It would look something like this

USE mangos;

UPDATE Creature_Template

SET scale = 3;

run this in MySQLYog and hit 'F9'. Have fun.

within the mangos database

instance_template

you can also look in your mangos.conf file for such options as

Instance.IgnoreLevel=1

Instance.IgnoreRaid=1

or..

you need to go into the source code and change a few things.

I cannot remember exactly where to look, try Map.cpp or anything Instance related

This would be good to know. I am also interested to see how how this works.

The list that you are looking for

http://getmangos.eu/wiki/List_of_GM_Commands

alternatively, you may also choose to modify your mangos.conf file to

Instance.IgnoreRaid = 1

to allow non-gm players to enter

Yes, it works awesome!

Thanks Shin

any update for 9020?

(This is my favorite patch)

Thanks Shin & Thorazi!

Confirmed working in 8715

Fantastic patch!

I liked it!

I would also be very interested in something like this. Browsing through ArenaTeamHandler.cpp I found this line:

if (!sWorld.getConfig(CONFIG_ALLOW_TWO_SIDE_INTERACTION_GUILD) && _player->GetTeam() != objmgr.GetPlayerTeamByGUID(at->GetCaptain()))

{

SendArenaTeamCommandResult(ERR_ARENA_TEAM_CREATE_S,"","",ERR_ARENA_TEAM_NOT_ALLIED);// not let enemies sign petition

return;

}

So I guess that means that we will also need to allow two side interactions in the config file. Do you think commenting these lines out may cause issues?

Thank you very much.

Is there a way to allow a raid group to enter a 5 man instance without booting players after the 5th goes in?

Just looking for a method that will lift the 5-man maximum restriction on normal instances. There are 6-7 of us who play all the time together and it would be cool if we could go in all the instances as a one raid group. Thanks guys!
