Mac Guide to Modcraft

Domminust:
My fellow Mac users. For too long have we been brushed aside as noob incapable wannabe’s..
Are you tired of such comments when asking Mac advice?
“sell your mac and get a windows”
“You just can’t do it on mac”
“the problem is, you’re on mac”
"Just throw it out the window"
Well no more. After following this guide you will show haters that you CAN be victorious in creating a world of beauty.
I made this guide in like 10 minutes and will continue to update it. Please if anyone would like to add anything then feel free.
1. Setting up your private wow server (not required to just run noggit and edit WoW)
Just follow this guide: http://jeremymeile.ch/page0/page0.html
To edit SQL of your server I use Sequel Pro:
http://www.sequelpro.com/download
2. Setting up Noggit and other tools
The following is a package made by Steff containing many tools for Modcraft and two blank test maps you can play with:

DropMPQ and MPQ Extractor:

Another handy tool but not necessary at the beginning is Gruulme:

Blipper for viewing BLP images.

Noggit Mac download:

You will need to create your own noggit.conf and import.txt file with TextEdit.
Please note that this release looks for noggit.conf (and by default, import.txt) in /Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/Noggit SDL/
Import.txt is for putting the paths to the wmo’s and m2’s in WoWData that you wish to spawn in Noggit.
example:
--- Code: --- worldwmoazerothbuildingsnsabbeynsabbey.wmo
--- End code ---
Noggit.conf should look like this:
--- Code: ---# This is a config file tamplate. To use it rename into noggit.conf and set your optiones
#Edit this to your WoWFile!!!
Path = /Applications/World of Warcraft/
#Edit this to your Project-Directory and uncomment if you want to use it! (this is where your edits will be saved to.
ProjectPath = /Applications/World of Warcraft/
#Set this to the file where you will impor models from (the modelviewer log for example :) )
#ImportFile = Users/<yourusername>/Library/Application Support/Noggit SDL
#The Far clipping value. Set to 2048, 3072, 4096 etc. for a further look. Higher values need more 3d power.
#1024 is the standart value and will be taken if you do not set this value.
FarZ=2048
--- End code ---
The last thing is after you make your patches if you use custom races and maybe some other things you will need a patched WoW client which can be downloaded here: https://mega.co.nz/#!A18R1TDQ!IB80yo6IE ... UfL9q6HBK8
So now that you have all of that downloaded, lets get right into working with the test02 map.
First head to WoWModdingProjectsTutorialProjectpatch
You need to put the DBFilesClient folder into your Worldofwarcraft folder (or wherever else you specified the path in noggit.conf)
This is so noggit can read and open the maps of the game. However I recommend using the areatable.dbc and map.dbc from your own server you have setup because these are in German. Just add the custom tables.
Take the patch folder and put it in drop mpq. Rename it to patch-4 (or whatever you want)
After you edit Adt's they are saved to WoWWorld
You then need to copy and paste this world folder, rename it to patch-(whatever)
patch-4 or 5 6 7 you can also use letters.
And then you need to create the MPQ with DropMPQ and put it in WoWData
For additional information and help head to:

Lord Bargulath:

thanks in advance
Skarn:
You won't get the newest version for Mac untill somebody compiles it. I don't have a mac, so no chance to compile the code for me.
Domminust:
Hi I re-uploaded Noggit. It is the previous version. Hope it works for you!
iindigo:
Hey guys, I'm the one who compiled the last Noggit Mac binary. No guarantees (I've been pretty busy) but I'll try to get a new build out for everyone soon.
