For first help :)

Copy this files to your MyDBCEditor folder. Then cols will be named. Will update the pack so they are inlcuded for future.

Outstanding!!  Thanks so much, Seff.  That helps tremendously.

I apologize for taking so long to get back.   My line of work is in emergency services and I've basically been stranded at work without a computer for the past few days due to some inclement weather.  

In any case, Everything seems to be back in order and I'm back to civilization! lol

Thanks for your patience.  Here is a picture of my dbceditor. I just can't figure out which columns are which.  For some reason mine doesn't have names for the columns but only numbers as you can see on the attachment.

Because of this, I'm not quite sure what exploreflag, SRefName and heiger ID are.  I'm sure it's just staring me in the face.  Anyway, if you could take a look at the attachment when you get a chance and see what I'm talking about.

Hey Seff!  Got another question for you.

When I get to this part about editing the areatable.dbc:
Quote
>> Righclick on the list > Insert Line
>> All not noted cells will stay on default
>> Give ID 5100
>> Enter mapID of 803. Its the link to Map.dbc
>> Enter ExploreFlag to next heiger ID 3500 for example.
>> Enter first SRefName an englisch name of the reagion.
>> Enter second SRefName a localiced name in your language.
>> Enter minElevation -500. Seams to be standart :)

Repeat this task for map ID 801 and 802 and save the table.

Not your new map is ready to get formed.

my dbceditor doesn't quite look like the steps that you are talking about.  Below is an image of what I'm seeing.  My added area entry is line 5100 (Jer Region).
First of all, what is ExploreFlag and heiger ID?  ALso I don't see SrefName.  I'm assuming the last column is the minElevation height since all the others iare set to -500.

If you could advise me which column number in my picture correspond to your list names above, that would help greatly.

Also one more question.  How do I go about creating a portal or zone swirl (like you see going into instances or battlegrounds).  I would like to use zone swirls (sorry for not knowing what their called lol) in order to make people use them to transition into another area.

Anyway, I greatly appreciate your help.  I have uploaded an image of what I'm talking about in my dbceditor to photobucket but can't post links.  Is there anyway I can submit the image to you so you can see it?

Two possible reasons.

1. The wow folder is read only set.
2. You user has not full ntfs rights for all files

Inthink itnis second.  Take over ownership in settings tab. And then oberwrite the folder security that your user has full access to the files.

If you don't get it to work we will have a teamviewer session next days.

This took care of the problem.  Thanks a bunch for your help, Seff!

Thanks so much!   That would make sense.  I'm at work right now, but when I
Get home in the morning I'll check it out and post here with my results.

I see from the errors that I obviously did something wrong lol.  Was I supposed to get the MPQ files setup before I start the program?  I was trying to follow the guide in order as best as I could.  But of course, Operator error strikes again (me being the operator lol).  

So lay it on me!  Where did I screw up? :)

Hey guys, I downloaded the tools and am trying to get setup with modding.  I'm having the same problem a lot of people are having.  When I start Noggit, it opens and then closes immediately.  I "think" I've tried to follow the steps listed by Steff in part 2.  Here's what I have so far:

1) I've gone into D:WoWModdingToolsDriveLetter (I have everything installed on my D: drive), opened the D folder, copied the containing Tools folder and pasted it into
D:WoWModding (overwriting when prompted)

2) I copied the client files from my WoW folder (3.3.5a, Not the whole folder, just the containing WoW files) into:
D:WoWModdingClient335aNoggit and
D:WoWModdingClient335aTest

3) here is the contents of my noggit.conf file (which is found in D:WoWModdingToolsNoggitSDL)

Code: [Select]
#This is a config file template. To use it rename into noggit.conf and set your options
#Edit this to your WoWFile!!!
Path = D:WoWModdingClient335aNoggit

#Edit this to your Project-Directory and uncomment if you want to use it!
ProjectPath = D:WoWModdingProjectsTutorialProjectpatch

#Set this to the file where you will import models from (the model viewer log for example :) )
ImportFile  = D:WoWModdingToolsWoWModelViewer7userSettingslog.txt

#The far clipping value. Set to 2048, 3072, 4096 etc. for a further look. Higher values need more 3d power.
#1024 is the standard value and will be taken if you do not set this value.
FarZ=2048

Again, I THINK I have the files setup correctly, but Noggit just closes on start up.

A couple of things I'm thinking:

1) I also have a retailed version of WoW installed on my pc (is it messing me up because my registry is stating my WoW files are elsewhere?).  Keep in mind, during this whole process I am not touching the retail WoW folder at all.

2) I am using a no install version of 3.3.5a WoW client as my wow files to copy.  Is this causing me a problem because it's not an actual install?

3) my noggit.conf could be in the wrong place or it's configured wrong (again I think I have that setup right, but let me know if the above info is wrong!)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
