Ah, my mistake i only read tutorial [00] and [01] but was afraid to continue any further because i didn't have any of the tools. Sorry about that, and thanks!

Steff:
No Problem. I will rewrite the part in 01 that point to not instaled tools.

Feedback:

When opening noggit, I had a missing MSVCP110.dll. I downloaded the visual studio runtime that was linked on the manual (wiki/index.php5?title=Noggit_user_manual) but it wouldn't install because I already had a newer version.

From what I know, it is better to install the whole visual studio than to just replace the single dll so I didn't do that. The internet says that this dll is in fact in the 2012 visual studio, not 2010 (though it says 2010 on the guide*).

So I downloaded visualC++2012. But I already had it. Then I realized that I needed the x84 32bit version. After I downloaded that, everything worked perfectly.

Suggestions:
1. Let it be known on the manual that the latest visualC++ is needed, and that it must be the x86 (32-bit) version. If a link is provided, maybe warn that it may not be the latest version anymore.

2. This is a minor one. On the noggit.conf, it reads

#Edit this to your WoWFile!!!
Path = E:WoW 3.3.5

I was a bit unsure at first whether I was supposed to edit it to my WoWFile (E:WoW 3.3.5WoW.exe) or the WoW folder path (E:WoW 3.3.5) because the comment says the file but the path example is the folder. I did the folder and it worked fine, but I would recommend changing it to

#Edit this to your WoW Folder Path!! With  also at the end, and NEVER /
Path = E:WoW 3.3.5

These suggestions might decrease the number of new players asking for help & make more people join the community cause the setup is easier.

Read me and noggit not matching is due to different people doing it and doing it for different versions.

I will update the pack and include the DLL. Thanks for this

If you follow the tutorial right, you have no need to edit the config file. Because in part 2 we setup the modding environment and copy wow 2 times over to predefined folders inside WoWModding FOlder called Client335aNoggit and Client 335aTest.
