- MaNGOS ~Amber~ Releases 3.x.x

[davevleugel]

Hey guys, I just need some advice on setting this server up to have friends outside logging in. I can log in from my LAN no problem.

I followed the instructions in the /doc, and I'm still with no luck.

I'm running Win 7 64bit, closed my firewalls, opened ports in my router. I ran ( cports ), and they are open. I allowed all rules in the firewall setting in Win 7 just in case.

Ports that are open:
8085 TCP and UDP
3724 TCP and UDP
80 TCP and UDP

The only thing I changed as indicated in the /doc instructions is the:

- address in realmd db from 127.0.0.0 to blackrock.no-ip.info
- added these in the etc/hosts
<external IP> blackrock.no-ip.info
<Computer IP> blackrock.no-ip.info

I did not touch any settings in the following files that shows 127.0.0.1 because if I do, when I start Amber GUI, it just shuts down and says it cant connect to db.
Amber.ini
scriptdev2
realmd
mangosd

Have I missed something?

Update: From outside my network, I'm able to ping blackrock.no-ip.info.

What is standing in:
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts open it with a text editor

First post in here of the new year?

Updating from 10316 to 10771 doesn't work.

~Fixed~

The damn Drive to install to and install folder keep changing. Simple and easy fix, yo.

Hi,
After killing Marrowgar, the ice walls won't break. will you fix it in future versions ?

   AuctionHouseBot.Items.ItemLevel.Min = 0
  AuctionHouseBot.Items.ItemLevel.Max = 0
  AuctionHouseBot.Items.ReqLevel.Min = 0
  AuctionHouseBot.Items.ReqLevel.Max = 0
  AuctionHouseBot.Items.ReqSkill.Min = 0
  AuctionHouseBot.Items.ReqSkill.Max = 0
  
  AuctionHouseBot.Tradegoods.ItemLevel.Min = 0
  AuctionHouseBot.Tradegoods.ItemLevel.Max = 0
  AuctionHouseBot.Tradegoods.ReqLevel.Min = 0
  AuctionHouseBot.Tradegoods.ReqLevel.Max = 0
  AuctionHouseBot.Tradegoods.ReqSkill.Min = 0
  AuctionHouseBot.Tradegoods.ReqSkill.Max = 0

You mean to change those numbers? I changed them, tried many combinations and still nothing. It says there are thousands of items loaded, still nothing. Can you specify to what numbers exactly I have to change these settings.

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: I got what you mean. Logged into Characters DB with SQLyog and edited the Min/Max number of items and now AH is populated with items. Thanks!

Hey I have Explained all this back in the forums try page 115 it's near the bottom of page you will find it , also use search....Amsco

Nighthawk1000 you still around?

Shiv you still around?

As Akreao point's out the bot is hosted by Blueboy on his git repo, my issue with patches is the lack of support they often suffer from over time and more importantly the impact on the core stability when using patches so inclusion in my repaq requires my trusting in the code to not impact the core and the possibility I will have to get my hands dirty at some point fixing the structure changes as the core code matures and the patch developer dissapears to get on with real life e.g. exams as I hate dropping patches I perceive as essential to successfully running a small private server. Whilst the bot has plenty of plus points I'm concerned about the inevitable lag issue when a client is used on the server machine with the expectation it will function ok. Perhaps I need educating as to why this is 'essential' to the repaq as I'm always willing to learn something new...

I Have What you are looking for , Compiling for 3 days now almost done 3.3.5 - 12340 Now with bots and a few other goodies ...just trying to get it to work with your ambergui.... Later Shiv

[Blooddevil]

heya guys, i have a question.
i have an mango's 3.3.5a server,
some of the players on it have an 2 people mount like mammoth etc.
but the second player cant get on this mount. because the mount-arrow/thingy doesn't come up when they point at it.

do you guys have any idea how this can be fixed?

Thanks!

[LordPro]

edit: problem fixed

[Peanut1337]

So i have a small issue that i hope someone can help me with, i created a "Fun server" where all the rates were ramped right up and you could get really great items from world drops and even some custom items which could be farmed and made it possible to solo HC 25 man dungeons with all the gear and yet it still be a bit of a challenge, then yesterday i went to reset all the rates to normal and redo them, and i stupidly STUPIDLY without thinking grabbed my mangosd.conf from server1 and pasted it into server2 and didnt even keep the original one, now i have tried to fix it by going through and setting every thing to read from server 2 but i seem to be havving issues getting it to boot up again, can anyone email me their mangosd.conf from server 2 that i can just make a few adjustments to to get my realm working again? it's really frustrating because i do host mine for a few of my friends to play on and they dont want me to tamper with the "Blizz-like" realm that i have because we are all working really hard at keeping that in good shape.

If you can email me the mangos.conf from server 2 that would be great, you dont need to send it as an attachment just as text would be fine :D thank you in advance

Hi,
After killing Marrowgar, the ice walls won't break. will you fix it in future versions ?

i found that you can just walk up to them and click them and they break away

Sad to say but looks like the amber projects are dead, no progress and no new releases in long long time.
Probably the author can give some details about the upcoming release or if is dead.

A while back i actually asked Shiva about it and from memory they have gotten flooded with work and studies and decided to drop the project to make time for things that they will get paid for.

[Zeronomous]

Edited :

Figured out how to successfully update to 10771, cool, fixed a lot of problems~!

Now, quick question for anyone that might know, still trolling this thread like myself :).

1. How, or is it possible, to update the amber setup here after getting version 10771, to a newer release such as YMDB 14.5? I've found the trunkes for the newer releases on the website listed in the doc's folder for Amber, and downloaded them, however I'm not sure how to proceed to import them correctly. If anyone's been through this updating UDP and YMDB, please do tell. Aiming for a 95% or better working WoWLK server~!

Thanks everyone on this gigantic thread for all the help, it wasn't easy getting this far, but I'm more than satisfied with what I've learned thus far from reading here and trial and error.

[Nmosha]

[shivajiva101]

Hey sup?

Folks I'm impressed that you kept this thread running...seems like I might have to roll my sleeves up and muck in! Seriously tho we have recently seen the biggest division in the mangos development team giving us a fork with purist dev's sticking to the established and well beaten path of perfection before advancement and the dev's that want to see advancement to Cataclysm and beyond, with scriptdev team currently supporting both but with doubt's as to how long the latter can be supported.

It seems logical to work on providing you folks with a solid WOTLK release with Playerbot included to hone the synaptic paths as I need to create a faster repaq method, pricipally outputting the iss script to compile the project rather than its contents and hand modifying the original script to reflect the changes.

With that out of the way it would be trivial to prepare a Cataclysm release...

Your thought's are welcomed and feel free to let me know who is still around and interested :)

[Argordon]

I have been watching this thread for two years now,... waiting to see if Shiv might get interested in things again.... This was one of the better emulators. Not because it had no bugs (it had some) but because of simple things like working AHbot, and the mini program Shiv made to easily keep the server up and running... oh,... and it didnt hurt that it was easy to install!

If I could get any wish.... it would be to have Shiv get a Cata compatible emulator going - so, if the path to that is to first work on WOtLK...so be it.

[shivajiva101]

Comment noted. Im tied between the purist's and the adventurist's but obviously if I want momentum the latter is the path. Picking up the project after some months has some daunting elements with +5k lines of code in the gui and +3k in the installer routines plus changes to the core makes it a little difficult. I'm having lots of fun with the fact I'd stopped using meaningfull variable names and shifted to indirect referenced indexes for all the multiserver stuff due to the fact it was crystal clear in my mind at that time. Ironically it looks like someone else's code who does it way better than me! LOL

[IsusX]

Come on the safe way^ then ( 57 6f 74 4c 4b ).

[komothoes]

i would have to say this server is one of the best i have found i have found some bugs but nothing i have not been able to fix as i was playing i would say i would love to see a 4.x.x server

[ckclyde]

Great to see you're still around Shiva:) I've been playing your Amber release for a couple of years now...still lovin it! I look forward to a future 4.X release:)

[laurianjahn]

Not interested in a Cata upgrade here. Amber is awesome and exactly what i'm looking for. I'd go so far as to say, leave the installer alone and maybe just make interface for updating the core and databases without needing a new release of Amber. Not sure if i'm just out in the outfield with that idea. still pretty new to the whole idea here. On another note a webpage for adding and editting single items would be great. Maybe the webpage could be found in the miniserver page. one could select the db to edit, entry number and fields. That'd be super sweet. Thanks for the updates though...looking forward to what's next.

[SoulExertz]

ERM, how can I release the 80 people limit in Each Realm??

I changed it but when the world is launched, it showed and error and said that it will revert back to 80
