[SOLVED] [QUESTION] Just some questions

[schlumpf]

Whitespace is fine. The problem is that there is a subfolder for the map missing. You need a folder for all ADT etc files inside maps.

[LordAres]

sch. can you explain in noob terms?

[Steff]

You have

patch/world/maps/FILES

must be

patch/world/maps/MAPNAME/FILES

Where mapname is the first string row of Map.dbc and also same as all your adts.

Okay that works. Using the Help function i switched to the 2d texture edit mode by pressing U and then started painting. I swapped back out of it and it doesnt show the texture i painted, it still shows black

Also when i try to load my game it says



and when i load the server it crashes and says this in the logs

"Initialize data stores...
Some required *.dbc files (1 from 96) not found or not compatible:
./dbc/Map.dbc (exists, but has 126 fields instead of 66) Possible wrong client version."

This is after i added my custom map. Also Ascathos, I dont mean to make anyone mad by asking questions. Im sure people in the future can look at this and use it as a reference for problems. I ask a lot of questions because this is how i learn, and by people helping shows they want the community to grow and learn

[Jøk3r]

Did you make a new patch for your modded files (dbc, adts etc.) ?
For example "patch-4.MPQ"
The error says that some required dbc files are not founr or compatible. So: 1. missing dbc files or 2. wrong version

[LordAres]

Yeah I followed the tutorials step by step and made a patch.

The server only take en DBC files. So you have to load them somewhere and not use them from your client.

Also your local patch is corrupted. If You dont create one delete all locals heigher then 3.

What do you mean EN dbc files? I took the Map.dbc from the Locale-enUS.MPQ from my client folder. Am I not suppose to do that?

So when i got to the step in the tutorial to edit Maps.dbc from the Locale.MPQ i went into my wow folder, there was no Locale.MPQ but there was a Locale-enUS.MPQ so i took the MAPS.DBC out of that and edited the strings. I patched everything like u said steff into a mpq named patch-F.MPQ and placed it in the data folder of my client. When i start it says

I only kow that trinity dont like my Map.dbc from the deDE client. I had to load dbcs from web to let trinity start

enGB and enUS use the same localization ID. So if you use any kind of English localization, enUS and enGB can use it simultanious. So think the same for both.

Your patch is not supposed to have more than one character after Patch-, for example an X or an Z, or even a 7. Patch-7 => Works, Patch-647 => Not, Patch-54F => not.

[schlumpf]

On this case, the problem is that you took the dbc from locale-****, not patch-*-****, thus you're not up to date. Take the latest available dbc and do your modification again. It will work then.

You can not have dbc files of multiply languages/localization modes.

Seems like you used the wrong file - use the patch-enGB-1.mpq for the map.dbc. That one works for sure.
