Here I want to collect the pros and nos for the both server emulators Arcemu and Trinity in modding relation. What are the differences between them. Is one of them better for modding or are they both good?

What do you know about this.

And please not only a post like i like this or that.

Why do you. What are the points?

outcomes:

Trninty Core:

+ Easy setup

Arcemu

+ Better dokumented with wiki and more tutorials.
+ Lua Scripting engine.
+ GameObject placement possible.

If one or more of the points are wrong please participate to the discussion and let us know that.
Also you can tell us more pros for the both sides.
What about the power of the two systems.
User workload?

Next version.

Changes since B17:

- Insert the Map Window from the start menu also inside the 3D view. Open up with M. Replace the old Map.
- New implementation of saving. Now every change on an ADT marks this as changed. If you save now every changed ADT will get saved (CTRL + S) The old Save function is also in. You can find it over the menu or with SHIFT + CRTL + S.
- All changed ADT are marked with a white border in the Map Window.
- Fix a problem with WMO import from ModelViewer ( but found out that WMOs with doodads inside make problems, work on it)
- Add StackWalker to the logfile. So if noggit crash we have some more infos to find out why.

Please test the new save method. Open up the map window (M) and make changes on ADTs.
Every change MUST add the white border to the ADT in the map window that it get saved!
Ground edit. hole, Rotate of models, scalingmovement, texturing .... everything!

I search some guys to build up a tech crew for Maruum.

Your functions will be:

- build up the basic server datastructure.
- Handel adt placement, map and minimap stuff.
- Help other builders to integrate their stuff into the server.

Happy testing.

If you are interested in testing new betas of noggit then please join the beta-testing group here on the board. New versions will only be available over the beta board in the future.

You should:

- Have time to do this.
- Have good to expert knowledge of wow modding and/or the ADT file structure.

Guys with membership and no activity in the tracker will be sling out of the tester group.

Please also write an post in this thread as an application to tell my why I should let you beta test.

And please NO private questions about noggit to me.
There is the bugtracker where you can see what problems are in the current version.
If you find a new bug, then post it there and don´t send this info direct to me.

No feature requests please. I know what the app needs
There are over 4 word sites of features I contrived.

If you test and have a starting problem. All new versions are tested. If it not start the problem is to 95% on your side. Test the path. Run it against a clean wow installations wthout any files and custom MPQs in it. Look in the logfile. Under Vista and 7 you MUST run noggit in XP sp3 or sp2 compatibility mode.

If i personal help out to run noggit i cant code in this time. If you cant get it to work, ask in the beta board in the future.

To use the config file you MUST start noggit with the -c switch. To do this make a shortcut to the exe and open the settings of it. Behind the noggit.exe write a space and then -c.
Now you can set the paths in the noggit.config file.

And also please no questions when a new version will be released. It will if it is ready. We have also a real life, have to go work, do some stuff at home, and have other hobbies beside coding noggit. I know you all burn on the new version, I do also because I am a modder too. But it needs time.
In the moment we try to erase some things that get modders in trouble in the past.

Minimaps are small images for every ADT. I will only describe the tech stuff not the creative


First create a new image with a resolution of 256 x 256 pixel.
Save and convert it with a BLP converter like BLPConverter6 from the Tools section.

Name it like your map plus the ADT number behind.
Like:

MyMap2345.blp for the ADT MyMap_23_45.adt

The copy this file into your patch folder in the directory

TexturesMinimap

Extract the file md5translate.trs from the MPQs to the same directory and open it up with a editor.

To find this file read tip 4 in this tut http://modcraft.io/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=98

The file has many lines so the basic windows notepad will take some time to load it.
In this file add a new line for your map. Insert it in the alphabetic right position to find it again.

dir: MyMap

It should come direct before dir: NetherstormBG with this name.

Than you must add one line for every ADT that connects the ADT and your BLP.

MyMapmap23_45.blp            MyMap2345.blp

The 2 lines MUST be separated with a TAB and NOT with a SPACE!
In the first line you have your map-name followed by a backslash (  ) and the word map.
Then add the ADT numbers separated by an underscore.
Followed by .blp. Don´t ask why BLP and not ADT,  just do it and don´t think about it again

Then a TAB followed by the name of your minimap BLP file.

Save the file and put all together in an MPQ and test it in-game. Fly to the ADT you have added your minimap and you should see it.
