How to Install:

SPP Classics v1.0


  • Vanilla (1.12) & The Burning Crusade (2.4.3) support included.

Installation


  • Scroll down and download SPP_Classics.exe. (NOT Source code.zip)
  • Installer is a 7z self exctacting archive, it will extract "SPP_Classics" folder where you put it.
  • It is recommended to use SSD if you have one
  • Run it and click Extract
  • Open the unpacked SPP_Classics folder and run Server_Update.bat and wait for it to download all necessary files. (~300 MB).
  • After it is ready you will see Expansion selection menu.
  • Expansions are downloaded "per request", e.g. TBC files (maps/mmaps...) are only downloaded if you select TBC expansion.
  • Select desired expansion by typing expansion menu number and hit Enter. Expansion files will be downloaded and installed automatically.
  • DO NOT close the launcher during the process!
  • When its ready you will see Expansion menu, with "Start Servers (Win64)" and other options.

Bot Addon


  • You can find latest Mangosbot AddOn for 1.12 WoW in SPP_Server/Addons folder. Copy Mangosbot folder in WoW/Interface/AddOns/

Settings


  • Before you start, you can edit the Settings in SPP_Classics/SPP_Server/Settings/%expansion%/ folder

aiplayerbot.conf:

Find these settings:

AiPlayerbot.MinRandomBots = 200
AiPlayerbot.MaxRandomBots = 200
AiPlayerbot.RandomBotMinLevel = 1
AiPlayerbot.RandomBotMaxLevel = 60
AiPlayerbot.RandomBotAccountCount = 50

  • By default bot/bot account number is 200/50. For better experience keep this ratio around 5/1, e.g. 500/100, 1000/200 etc.
  • Important!: if you change bot/acc number later, you will need to do "6- reset randombots" for changes to take effect.
  • You can leave other settings unchanged.

mangosd.conf:


  • here you can change XP and other rates. Look for "SERVER RATES" and change them if you want.

Importing save from old SPP Classics repack



Starting server


  • To start server, choose "Start Servers (Win64)" and wait for it to load.
  • It will take longer to boot for the first time, because random bot characters will be created.
  • To create an account, choose option in the menu and follow the instructions.
  • To log in - edit realmlist.wtf file - "set realmlist localhost"

Shutting down


  • DO NOT close anything by pressing [X] "close" button in the upper-right corner.
  • Open the window with Expansion menu and choose "0 - Shutdown all servers" option. It will close everything automatically.
  • If you don't want any rollback after shutdown, do this instead:


  1. execute "saveall" command (".saveall" if you do this in-game)
  2. execute "ser shut 1" (".ser shut 1") command and wait until mangosd.exe window closes itself
  3. choose "shutdown all servers"

Starting server after shutdown


  • You can use Server_Update.bat to install any available updates & start the server.
  • Or you can use Server_Start.bat to start the server without checking for updates.
