Title: How to apply world changes on server ?
Post by: Wargarr on July 19, 2012, 01:46:20 pm
So at the begging I edited Eastern Kingdom map but i don't really know how to apply those changes on server and on my client, can anyone tell me it ? It's not about creating new map.

If you just changed some stuff on eastern kingdoms you have to but the adts in your project path into a patch called "patch-x.MPQ" under "worldmapsazeroth" (The x is for a number higher than 3 and the ending MPQ has to be in capital letters.
This patch has to be in Data folder.
Just start your server and wow (with the patch inside data^^) and you should see your changes.

1. Make your changes in noggit
2.create a new patch called "patch-x.MPQ" (x is a number higher than 3 and the file ending has to be in capitals, example: patch-4.MPQ)
 - for that you can use any MPQ Editor, LadiksMPQEditor for example
3. create in that patch following folder structure: worldmapsazeroth (azeroth because you made changes on on eastern kingdoms)
4. go to your project path (where noggit saves the changes) and drag'n'drop the adt's from "projectpatchworldmapsazeroth" into the azeroth folder inside your patch.

Hope I have nothing wrong now xD

Editing existing Blizzard adts often crash them. We just create new maps and dont use blizzards stuff.
