Step 2
In this step we will extract the DBC files and the Map files needed to run an Antrix server. Both the programs used are in the Antrix compile you downloaded earlier.
First extract the DBCExtractor and the MapExtractor from your Antrix folder.
(*NOTE* If you live in europe you will need the enGB map extractor which can be found here)
When you have done that go to your World of Warcraft folder and put Ad.exe and the maps folder in the root of WoW folder. (C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft or whatever your directory is) Then run Ad.exe , when it is done, the maps folder will be full of maps. Put the maps folder into your antrix folder.
Now for the DBCs. Open your DBCExtractor folder, and copy SFmpq.dll and MPQE.exe along with your area batch file to World of Warcraft\Data\enUS (The last directory will obviously change for differant areas). Now run the batch file, it will produce a folder called MPQOUT. Open that folder and you will see another folder (DBFilesclient) Rename DBFilesclient to DBC. Now copy the DBC folder to your antrix folder.
Step 3
In this stage we will create a gm account for you to play on. First Open up navicat. Then go into your antrix database, and open the accounts table.
Now fill it in like this:
Account Username Password GM Flags
1 Admin Admin 3 8
(The rest of the columns can be left blank)
Step 4
Now if you havn't already done this, you need to go into your World of Warcraft folder, find the realmlist and open it in notepad. Change it so it look like this - set realmlist 127.0.0.1
Now to start the server go into your antrix folder and start logonserver.exe, then start antrix.exe. Then open up WoW and play!

Getting the "Unable to validate game version error?" If so, launch up WoW and look in the bottem left corner. It will tell you the version you are using. Remember the last four digits of your WoW version (for example for me it would be 6692). Now go into your Antrix folder and open \Antrix\logonserver.conf with notepad. Scroll down to the bottem and you will see this:
If your version is higher than this, change the MaxClientBuild to the number you checked when you opened up WoW.MinClientBuild = 6692
MaxClientBuild = 6692
If your version is lower, do the same apart from change MinClientBuild instead.
