[WoW Server] Question: Must have a PS

(1/2) > >>

Morning

Is it safe to say that you as a user starting to invest thought for the time and work needed to do their own modding, to assume that one also needs their own Server (Private Server) to work all this?

Jack:
Yes, of course you need your own private server to test your mods.
That'd be like painting a picture without a canvas. You might have the layout, colors etc in your mind or even on a seperate piece of paper, but as long as it isn't on canvas it's not a picture.

Steff:
WoW is a server based game. The data of the world is divided in two parts. The hole graphic stuff you can find in the clients, but many information about what items you are a enemy have/drop. Where what enemy is to find and the quest stuff the client get from the server. So if you want also change this stuff you need a own server.

You can make changes in the client and look at them also on public servers. But that is no mod and if blizzard will recognize it you will get banned.

It's not that I'm surprised (because I'm not) about having to get a PS up, it's that no matter how many different ways and times I can't figure out the SQL with the server

Might just be me, oh well

Happy Modding
