3. Open the Burning Crusade patcher.
4. Finish patching that, and install it by opening the Installer (dragon icon) located in WoW-2.0.0.5991-enUS-Installer, install that it in the new folder you made previously.
5. Now go ahead and open up the game without changing anything first and log in as a pass: a, and it will begin updating and patching, repeat this step until you get to version 2.0.2.6144 or until it says wrong username and password.

Concluding the Emu:
16. Now, we have that all done! But now we must go to the mangos folder open it up, and open up realmd.CONF with WordPad, and part of it should read:
Make sure you change where it says YOURSQLPASSWORD to your MySQL password.
17. Save and close out of realmd.CONF.
18. Now, open up mangosd.CONF with Notepad or WordPad, and part of it should read
Make sure you change where it says YOURMYSQLPASSWORD in both places!!! to your MySQL password.
19. Save and close out of mangosd.CONF
20. Now, open up mangosd.EXE and realmd.EXE, and they should stay open!!! If not then there could be a problem.
21. Go open TBC folder from the second step, and open up Burning Crusade Closed Beta, in there should be a file named realmlist.WTF, open that with Notepad and erase everything and paste the following instead:
Save and close.
22. And finally go to Navicat, open realmd, open realmlist and change it to: id:1 ,name:anything you want, and address to:127.0.0.1, leave everything else the same. And then after this, open up mangos.exe and realmd.exe! All done!
