WoW Private Server - Adding Modules/Add-ons to AzerothCore

[@rogero8443]

Hey I like your style of tutorial here. You're just doing it, but you can tell although you're exploring a bit you clearly know what's going on. Calm and good video to watch for info on how to install mods. Thanks!

[@Trash_PandaTales]

I swear youtube analytics can read minds.. was thinking I need to look for a module add on install tutorial and what ya know one suddenly shows up 😂

[@nopriorknowledge7046]

Hey Joe, really appreciate your channel, keep up the good work!

[@ShaneWoffenden]

Nice one man. That was made simple :)

[@mrtiff99]

Thanks for the video.

epic vids hope to see more :D

Thanks brother

Good tutorial, ty !

Hi Joe, Getting into this scene currently and was wondering how easy it would be to have any race choose any class. Is it as simple as changing values or is there something more I need to look at?

[@realjoecast]

Looks like changing the classes races can use requires some client side patches. I'm going to be looking at the addon module soon(ish)

I'm in need of help here, whenever I try to use the query to update the SQL data, it just keeps failing on me and causes the Worldserver to crash. Do you have any way of helping me fix that issue?

[@realjoecast]

what error does the SQL give you?

[@yuenasiaide488]

@@realjoecast Should I post the Error code or do you by chance have a discord server?

[@realjoecast]

@@yuenasiaide488 no one should ever use discord :-) yeah post it here is fine. make sure to remove any passwords from whatever you post.

[@yuenasiaide488]

@@realjoecast Would it suffice if I send the Crashlog? The SQL itself doesn't feel like showing the error again and I don't have it backlogged

QQ i was bei 15:23 and now putty time out evertime...

[@FabiFlch]

hey nice tutorial. thank you! questions: Why u have to build a complete new "server" when u just want to install a module? i know u can keep database and stuff but it always takes like 20min... How can i even test my own module if i have to build 20min after every small change? do i miss something??

[@realjoecast]

the modules need to be added to the app directly so when you build it it puts those functions into the core itself. Sadly at the time i did this there didn't seem to be a way to add a precompiled mod to a precompiled core. Not sure if it is still that way.

[@FabiFlch]

@@realjoecast its still like this.. you have to compile the whole thing

[@Tntdruid]

Any easy way to update the modules on linux?

[@realjoecast]

drop them in the directory and recompile.

[@ChrisFredriksson]

Great video Joe! Will you be doing more server setup and config videos? More modules/addons perhaps? Is playerbots or npc bots available for ac as well? Could you make a video on setting that up and how to configure and use it? Also, if possible, if you could increase the size on console and such so it is a bit larger when recording, it would be awesome 😋 Other than that, I love your videos! ❤

[@realjoecast]

Probably not for a while, gravitated away from WoW at the moment. When I see something I want to try but don't want to do in production I like to try it with a selfhosted solution like wow private servers. Compiling the modules is as "simple" as downloading them from Azeroth's core (AC) site, putting them in the source modules directory and recompiling. Each plugin has its own configuration so... I did have a plan of someday doing videos going over certain plugins, but reality is most of them don't work, or work the way you expect them to out of the box. seems like this happens mostly because the plugin developers abandoned the project and didn't keep up with new versions of the core. If you are going to try to use one for a long term public private server make sure you have developers that understand the code and scripting.. or never update AC once you are set lol. This isn't the fault of AC Or the Plugin.. just people lose interest.

Thanks…trying to find a video to do sever to play by myself…I’m keeping my regular sub, but I just want to play by myself with at least bfa and before games…

[@deeznutssz0]

subbed and liked for you brotha!

[@Nvictus2012]

nice vid, everytime I try to compile and zip/git, with the botplayer mod, i get tons of errors when building and no longer have a worldserver.exe to launch -_-, can you make a vid of downloading the playerbot mod? also is there a revert option so I dont have to reinstall everything ...

[@realjoecast]

some mods need additional steps and some may not be compatible with the current versions. the module page or read me in the package 'should' have that info. I don't recall for sure but one of the player bot mods had extra configuration steps No there is no way to revert it. after you get something you like make a backup of the server and source. I learned that the hard way. Note: do this for your custom patch files too if you are doing client side patching.

[@JulesPiga]

I do everything like you and I have errors when I use microsoft virtual ... can you help me?

[@JulesPiga]

Isn't it better to delete the build folder before generating?

[@realjoecast]

what errors are you getting? is it at the cmake part or the visual studio?

[@JulesPiga]

@@realjoecast at visual studio

[@realjoecast]

@@JulesPiga run the visual studio install and make sure you have the C and C++ modules enabled. I don't think they are all required but that is what i did so i didn't have to keep messing around with it

[@QuelThalasz]

Hello can i do this in existing repacks?

[@realjoecast]

repacks are generally pre-compiled. so not likely.

[@the-beneficiary1809]

Joe do you know how this can be done in Linux?

[@realjoecast]

Yes, I have a video series: kzbin.info/aero/PL9Ko4kdSCrZwFkON0mA-9VHPLn8N8I8X3 chances are you can skip the beginning video(s) as i start with creating the vms and such.
