    [Help Needed] Creating Custom portals? Also starting Point Help

    Alright, so I know how to create .addgo portals, the ones that lead to the MAIN cities, but I want to know how to create portals that lead to the coordinates I give. Im planning on making an area full of portals.

    I also need to know how to set the starting point of the alliance and horde players different. For example, i want all alliance players to start out in one specific area, and all horde players to start out in one different specific area

    thx
    chris

    If you're using MaNGOS, look in the gameobjects table (you'll see how they are set up) for the portals, and look in the playercreate tables to change the starting location.

    PORTALS
    Create portlas in the gameobject_template table (I suggest to copy exactly one of the already made portals.
    Create nuw aretriggers in the areatrigger_template (again, I suggest to copy one othe already made portal-trigger and insert the coordinates where you want your portal to send you).
    Go back to the gaeobject_template and insert in the sound0 (or soundl1?) field the id of your custom portal.
    If you notice on the Stormwind Portal, for example, the first or second "sound" field value is the id of the Stormwind portal areatrigger.

    STARTING AREAS
    All the playercreateinfo_* tables allow you to set tha character's statring values...just look for the one where you can set coordinates...I don't remember them by heart at the moment.

    Hope this is useful.

    check you npcflag and your scriptname for your character and make sure it has misc directory in your mangoscript with your teporter lua otherwise it will do nothing.

    Yup, I checked it and it still just says "Greetings Haxified", and the "Unknown" option is there. I dont think its loading when I start the server , because I dont see the "Loading script C:/Mangos/MangoScript/misc/my_teleporter.lua"

    Btw, this happens with all the guards in stormwind and ironforge, not just the custom npc
