WowwoW Setup and usage guide.
-It is as simple as possible to be usefull to the Newbie and the expert user.
-It is however required a basic Computer knowlege, if you dont have it, you shouldnt be running a server.
-2.0 .NET framework required, you can get this at microsoft's website.

This guide is intended for the average user that just wants to run the server and not modify antything. Please look at other references for that.

1. Download WowwoW from http://wowwow.1.vg/ website.
- Download the server files and the map files if you dont have them from earlyer releases.

2. Go to the location where you donwloaded the file (probably desktop) and open it with winrar (www.win-rar.com).Extract the contents to the location where you want to keep your server software.
- Now take your Maps folder and put it in the WowwoW Root folder overwriting.

3. Double click on WowwoW.exe , after it has started it will tell you in the first 10 lines it has created a config.xml file. Leaving WowwoW.exe open go to your WowwoW root folder, right click on config.xml and open with Notepad or any other text editor.

config.xml explanation:

Code:

// Don't touch this // Don't touch this WowwoW // Replace "WowwoW" with the desired server name. This will appear appear in realmlist after logon 127.0.0.1 // If you want a Solo server, don't touch this. If you want a lan server replace "127.0.0.1" with your lan ip, if you want a internet server go to http://www.myipaddress.com/ and paste that ip instead of "127.0.0.1" 8085 // Don't touch this 3724 // Don't touch this 0.0.0.0 // If you don't want anyone to access your http reg page, just replace 0.0.0.0 with 127.0.0.1 8088 // Don't touch this true // If you want people to be able to log in without registering on the webpage with same account as password (like account: 123 and password: 123) and then changing password ingame (.password WhatYouWant) leave true. If you want web registration only put False. false // If you want a PvE Realm leave false, for PvP replace "false" with "true". 1 // Change this to change the Xp multiplier (Higher the number, higher the xp) 1,0 // Same as above, but for drops 1 // Same as above, but for gold 15 // Time you want to elapse between automatic worldsaves (in minutes) 15 // Time the corpses take to decay (in seconds) true // true // true // true // All these are to Abilitate/Disabilitate Classes ("true" abilitated "false" disabilitated) true // true // true // true // true // true // If you have a lot of RAM memory let it "true", otherwise "false" 1,0 // Change mana regeneration multiplier 1,0 // Same as above but during spell casting 1,0 // Same as above but for health 1,0 // Same as above but during combat true // To abilitate disabilitate addons usage ("true" abilitated "false" disabilitated) 50 // Don't touch this // Don't touch this

- Now save the file and close.

4. Go back to the open WowwoW.exe console. Hit enter and if you got windows just hit ok. That's because we dont have funds yet for complete protection software.

5. When you get the 3 Listening on port... etc messages, it means the server is ready.
Remember to set as exeption and set these ports open : 3724 , 8085 , 8088 in your firewall if you want others to join.

6. To join the server you need your wow to be version 1.8.0. then go to the wow root folder, find realmlist.wtf and open it with bloc notes.
Edit it so that it should look like, if you're logging on from the server pc: set realmlist 127.0.0.1 and if from another pc: set realmlist YourInternetIp
Open the game and go to step 7.

7. Your GM account is admin, password changeme, you might want to change it by typing .password WhatYouWant in game by pressing enter. (everyone can do this)
For account creation go on http://YourServerIp:8088/account.htm in your web browser. (Download Firefox).
