Hey Guys and Girls,

I was just wondering on how i would go about setting up my own TrinityCore WoW server to mess around in for awhile (hosted on localhost/single player).

i was aiming for the latest version on their github which is their 6.x branch and was wondering if there was any up-to date tutorials or tips?

Trinity has their own wiki that details the installation process. It is updated every time a new issues arises and is the most up to date instructions you can find.

Their wiki is fully documented in regards to setup. Make sure you're following the steps exactly and you wont get issues. The boost error is from not setting the boost PATH in your environment PATH settings.

I can't comment on building the 6.x branch, however it is currently not playable at all. It is still in very early development and even most of the basic features are not working. I believe they're currently having connectivity issues with the latest client as well. I personally wish they went to MoP instead of WoD, but I'd guess they'd prefer to redesign the entire game systems than to progress up to cata/mop.

Unfortunately one doesn't exist. The best is the latest official 3.3.5a client torrents, of which the best WotLK torrent is here:



Why not compile trinity for 3.3.5a? They have the absolute best DB + stable source for WotLK IMO.

What issues are you having compiling the 3.3.5a branch? I am currently working on a server using Trinity and had no issues getting everything compiling.

Even compressed, the client would be ~13gb. The client data files do not compress well. Unfortunately you're stuck with the ~16gb torrents.

Are you sure this is the 3.3.5a source? There are two branches with different builds. The 6.x branch often goes broken for days without being able to compile due to how many systems are partially written.

yea I've tried both, but i might stick with SSP due to playing with up-to 500 bots which is great also found a direct download for WoW (Still 16GB but no need for seeders/seeding for it to download)

Most people tend to get faster speeds from torrents. Not sure why you're so against them. :p

yea torrents tend to give me less then 100kb/s speed while i get 250~500kb/s from just downloading in my broswer, its not that im against torrents its just this way is faster for me.

Weird. Your modem must throttle concurrent connections or something. Torrents by design give the best download speeds.

while i love the design of torrent as a easy way to download and share files, its not really a usable option for me due to needing a high amount of seeders to be able to download anything (at which i'm getting around 100KB/s) while in a browser or download manager i'm able to download it regardless.

My speeds might be due to me living far away from any nearby towns/cities forcing me to get wireless internet instead of Broadband or anything neat and fast like that.

You should really at least try the Warmane download. I always get max speeds with them as they are one of the most popular servers. You only need ~20 seeds to hit max speed depending on their upload combined with peers. Their torrent has over 200 seeds last I checked.
