[SOLVED]  Player location on a custom World map
« on: November 11, 2012, 04:46:50 pm »
Hello Modcraft,


Well how I already said in the Topic name, I want to make that the player is located on my custom Continent ( on the World map, where you also can see Azeroth) like If I stay on Kalimdor and the Player is showing on the World map, exactly this I also want on my custom continent, which .dbc I have to change, and what I have to do.

Pro tip: look in the wiki and search for dbcs containing your own keywords. WorldMap* would be a fine start.

NO really?.... I already look at the .dbc files, but I don't know in which Worldmap dbc I bind the  dbc entry to the path  of the Continent BLP files. And I don't know from what the coodinates are (which are entered in the other entrys).

I also not. I get it to work by copy azeroth and try and error the values. If someone get a way to make this easyer it would be nice. :)

Also put the DBCs in a local patch!!!. Best just all of them. There are worldmap DBC(s) in one of the locals that will just overwrite your stuff if you put them in patch-4.MPQ

Why don't you just look at existing entries, then go to the possible coordinates in the client or noggit and you will see?

So does your observation match what you expected? If yes, it is correct. Try custom data. If it works, go ahead, it is correct.
