I didnt know where to post about that "bug".
Ok, so i made my 1st map, edited the map.dbc, edited the Areatables.dbc. Everything is working fine exept one thing and i guess its a trinitycore problem.
Everytime I try to invite another player in the new map the server crash. Im a good c++ coder and fixer...the problem is there's no log output about the crash so i was wondering if anyone was using TC and had this problem before.
at 1st i was having a log saying "error: vmap not found" so yea i extracted maps and vmaps ... right now i dont have any "errors" in the server.log but it still crashes. I will look the core code to see if there is a "max_map" or whatever since it might be something stupid like that.
Thx for reading, thx for helping again =)

Make sure the person you invite into your map also has the patch, otherwise they cannot see custom content you have created :)
-
yea he got it too since else he would just fall thru the floor.
I made sure everytime i change something he gets it too.... we were just messing around but then he sent me a party invite and server crashed.
We both have the exact same MPQs. the enGB one and the map one too

1. Test if he have no other patches expect yours. They can/willl disturb each other.
2. Let him clear the cach folder.
Then report again. Most times two different patches are the problem.

The client nearly can't bring the servers to crash.
One thing to check would be that:
The db files normally don't differ very much from client versions , they most just get expanded like new maps are added for example. In some expansions blizzard re sturctures the dbcs. As said normally such a restructure is very very rare, but in 3.2 to 3.3.x the dbcs got restructured. And blizzard actually patches so good that you have up to 4 diffrent dbc versions in you client. so always make sure to use the dbc out of patch-locale-3.MPQ for example(just with the heighest patch number).
Im not very sure about that but this could be a thing that leads your server to crash. And as you said you just changed one dbc files so i am assuming that there is something wrong with it^^.

Yea this is very wierd, we both have a clean wow with only the MPQs i made. The "enGB" mpq is made of "patch-enGB-3.MPQ" which is the highest patch (so up to date)
We both clear our cache pretty much everytime we log just to make sure.
The 2 dbcs i modified are maps.dbc and areatable.dbc (followed the tutorial on the areatable to make sure)
Everything client-side looks okay. We see the map's name in the right upper corner. When i use ".gps" i get no errors no "unknown" zone or map or area...
If you need i could upload my patch-enGB-4.MPQ.
Server is still crashing with no errors output.
edit: added my .MPQ file.
-
still got no solutions for that ... i tried couple things in areatable.dbc but its always doing the same thing. It doesnt crash but it just "hangs" open
EDIT:
Found the solution you guys should add that in the tutorial and write "trinitycore" since idk about other cores.
So yea i added an entry in "MapDfficulty.dbc" since there was no difficulty for my mapID
Method: Clone row 1 and edit column #2-> mapID. Save and add dbc to patch-enGB-number.MPQ
