I have been a part of this community for a long time, back when WoWemu was the only emulator out their. Back when OldOne was alive and breaking the encryption on wow.exe's . What I can say is this, 1. The emulated versions may never be perfect if we copy exactly what is in official due to official having fundamental core issues. 2. You have more than adequate information available for completion of said editions. 3. Cata may have a lot of changes on the surface, however underneath all the cool stuff (bypassing the streaming of content feature as the game can be played with all content fully downloaded and installed -- aka a bare from disc install with no patches), all it really is, is some UI modifications and map corrections which is essentially what vmap should be doing from the server side to determine world collision. I also understand that quite some time ago, you had fixed the server so that it would automatically correct invalid z-location's on spawns when too far below or above the resulting area available from vmaps ... Now, spawning all the new mobs, changing their mechanics, altering quest chains and adding the new quest chains, and adding in archaeology may pose as a chore, but it is nothing that hasn't been undertaken before as a team effort from the folks over at UDB, and this is why characters and such should remain in database tables --- NOT as a core part of the code, as this makes for much simpler alteration -- remapping of spells, rezoning coords, changing weapons, etc. Just my two cents Card.
