Can I play my patches also if the server doesnt have them?
« on: April 16, 2011, 05:01:37 am »
I being a complete noob, and just learning to mod maps from your totorial, have a few questions i will need answered.
1) Can maps you make come out in patches like designer island in a way you dont need your own privet server to use them. Like i im on a GM server and have my map can i just go to it and not crash ? or do i need a server with it loaded on for every one?
Also do you guys have a server with cool custom places ?
Can i check it out ?

Being a noob doesn't make you stupid right? You could have read the rules ( faq.php ) and discovered that "question" is one of the dumbest topic tiles one can choose (Rule 1.3). Please change it or I will delete this thread.

Depends...if the designers island is a new instance then the server will have to have the entry for that instance. But as far as i know when it comes to designers island , the dbc entry for that instance still should be there. Only the adts(terrain files) are misssing.

You can't if the map is not included in the server you're playing on, otherwise: mighty crash!
You CAN use custom patches where servers do not support them, but you'll get obvious bugs such as misplaced objects and npcs, and a ban if you're on retail :D
