Want to extend your AzerothCore private server with new features? In this ultra-short tutorial, I show you exactly how to install and configure a module step-by-step. Perfect for beginners getting started with private servers. ✔ Download & Unpack: Grab your module from GitHub and drop it into the modules folder.✔ Recompile: Yes, it sucks, but you have to recompile the server to make it work.✔ Configure: Rename your .dist files…

The ultimate “lazy” way to host your own private WotLK World of Warcraft server with PlayerBots. DrePack is a fully portable AzerothCore environment, with a bunch of mods, featuring a minimal built-in management menu, and a simple account-registration page.

In a recent post ↗, I showed how to set up a AzerothCore server with PlayerBots on Windows. In this post, we’re going to do exactly the same thing, but this time on a Linux machine. On Ubuntu 24.04 to be more specific. Requirements Build the server Database set up Data files Configure server Run the server Create your account Firewall / UFW Play the game https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYU-pC8H1mU I’d suggest to…

In this video, I’m getting personal. We all remember the “Golden Era” of World of Warcraft. Not just for the raids or the loot, but for the community. Before social media was everywhere, WoW was our town square. It was where we shared our lives, our struggles, and our triumphs on TeamSpeak and Ventrilo. But time moves on. Our guildies grew up, priorities shifted, and reality took us away from Azeroth.

Today I uploaded another video to YouTube. One where I show some things you can run alongside your private World of Warcraft server. These additions are great when you want to have friends or anybody else play on your server. The video is right here below. I’m still working on a video where I talk more in details what you can do with PlayerBots. That’s coming really soon, so keep an eye out for that.

The previous posts I did on building your own WoW server are very popular on this website, according to the visitor’s statistics. But they’re not for everybody, since not everybody has a Linux machine, or the willingness to work with Linux. That’s why this post is especially for all the Windows users out there. We’re going to be building our own, private, World of Warcraft server with PlayerBots, using AzerothCore, ON WINDOWS!

If we’re being honest, looking at the global stage right now feels a bit like watching a server crashing, in slow motion. Between the noise of world politics and the general chaos of the headlines, it’s easy to feel like the “hope” slider has been set to an all-time low. It often feels like we’re navigating a glitchy simulation where the devs have gone MIA. But here’s the thing I’ve…

This year, I did some crazy, stupid things, like most years. But one of the craziest things this summer was when I randomly decided to dress up like a Santa. That’s when I accidentally recorded this short little video message.

I’ve been using Pinokio ↗ for a while now. So, I’ve had plenty of experiences with it, and I also formed an opinion about it. And that’s what I felt like sharing with you all. But first, what even is Pinokio? What? As you may know, the amount of apps and Gradio tools built around Ai out there, is ridiculously high. You can easily spend many of hours, or days,…

Time to celebrate! Recently, on November 29th to be specific, we celebrated the 25th anniversary of this website and its domain name. We believe this is quite a memorable milestone, and we’re going to celebrate this remarkable achievement. There are a couple of things we did to commemorate our anniversary, and you can read all about it here. Brand-new Layout If you are a returning visitor, you may have already…

In a previous post, we built a private World of Warcraft server running the Wrath of the Lich King expansion with TrinityCore. This time we’re building another WotLK server including PlayerBots with CMangos. After having played around with these PlayerBots I was really pleased with their behavior. I definately prefer them over the NPCBots we used in the previous post. What made it even more interesting was to have the…

In this post, you find a list of Docker containers that I personally find to be very useful to always have running. In case you never heard of Docker, this content is probably not for you. I’m going to assume that you’re already somewhat familiar with Docker, and have it running on whatever OS you’re using. I also assume that you’re not afraid to use the command line or console…

I cloned myself into an avatar by an AI. Turns out my clone had something to say. He asked me to post it here. How can I say no to myself? By the way, isn’t he handsome?

Let’s hate a bit on Apple first, to get it out of the way In general, I’m not a huge fan of Apple. I’m an Android/Samsung user myself, so I’m supposed to hate on Apple. Right? Isn’t that how it’s supposed to be? That’s what I was thought. We are the good guys, Apple represents the dark side. Something like that. Even though their designs are gracious, their GUIs are…

Translation: Hello ustoopia (Andre), We had every confidence that you would reach this milestone and hopefully you did too. You are doing great. We would like to celebrate with you. Share this gif (and this good news) using the hashtag #1KCreator. Kind regards, Team YouTube
