Title: [QUESTION] Can't enter continent - "Raidgroup needed"
Post by: Devwaza on December 08, 2012, 01:09:00 am
Hello, this is my first post here, so I apologize in advance if this post is misplaced or a similar post already been placed somewhere. Anyhow, my problem is:

I created a new continent for my ArcEmu server, using Elou's "Worldbuilding basics" tutorial.

As for my three tries, the result is the same every time: when i try to enter my map (cords taken from noggit's cords.txt file), I get the "You need to be in a raidgroup" message. In the patch, my ArcEmu DBC-folder, and my wowfolderDBFilesClient, AreaDifficulty.dbc is included, and modified.

Kind of knew to this whole private server thing, but usually I can get things working without posting on forums. This one, I'm afraid not. Some help would be very much apprieciated. If you need images or information for troubleshooting, please say so.

... It does say what the error is, doesn't it ? Also, don't use ArcEmu. Use TrinityCore. It's just so much easier to work with...

Did you also add the changed DBC to your server DBC folder?
And arcemu use for many things Trinity just use the DBCs own MySQL tables. So also chack them. And as Ascathos say Trinity is much easyer to mod.

It is in-game I am having this problem, so it just simply says "You need to be in a raid group to enter this instance".

Reply to Steff: Yes, I did put the dbcs in my servers dbcfolder, if I understood the question correctly. And yeah, I've been told Trinity is supposed to be better in many aspects, but until I got my first map right I'm going to stick with the ArcEmu.

What if I told you that Trinity might not even cause these issues for you ?

Anyway. As I said, your error is continuously called . "Raidgroup needed". Your map is is identified as dungeon raid instead of being a continent. Set new, most likely AreaTable.

http://www.pxr.dk/wowdev/wiki/index.php?title=Map.dbc (http://www.pxr.dk/wowdev/wiki/index.php?title=Map.dbc" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

Maby your map.dbc entry is wrong.

Just copy the first entry (azeroth) and change the ID (1. column) an the names (column 1 and 8)

EDIT: column 2 MUST be 0
"0: none, 1: party, 2: raid, 3: pvp, 4: arena"

Well, I have taken your advice and started looking in to Trinity. So we'll see if I'll have the same problem with trinity, but thanks for your response!
