Windows Installation (short)

Last updated: October 02, 2023
  • Install all the following programs
  • Install a World of Warcraft 3.3.5a client to C:\wowdev\client (C:\wowdev\client\wow.exe should exist)
  • Download tswow and extract it to C:\wowdev\tswow (C:\wowdev\tswow\node.conf should exist)
  • Open a command window in your extracted tswow directory (shift+right click and select “Open Powershell Window Here”)
  • Type in “./start” into the command window and wait for tswow to install all files for you. This usually takes a while.
  • Once you get a message similar to TrinityCore rev .... (worldserver-daemon) ready, your worldserver has started.
  • Type in create account username password 3 -1 to create a gm account
  • Log in to the game.
