== Introduction ==

This is a basic guide on how to install SkyFire_548 and SFDB from scratch. **Please note this is a work in progress and only contains enough information to get most people a viable server in Linux.

== Prerequisites ==

The compilation of SkyFire_548 and the setup of SFDB will require certain packages to be installed. In Ubuntu 24.04 use the following command:
<pre>
sudo apt-get install g++ make cmake git wget libssl-dev libreadline-dev bzip2
</pre>

You may also want to install phpmyadmin and/or Apache. Do not forget the user and password for the Mysql root user.

'''Installing MySQL'''
<pre>
sudo apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client libmysqlclient-dev libmysql++-dev
</pre>

'''Installing ACE'''
<pre>
sudo apt-get install libace-dev
</pre>

== Compiling and Installing the SkyFire 5.4.8 ==

Grab the latest version of SkyFire_548 using git:

<pre>
git clone -b main https://codeberg.org/ProjectSkyfire/SkyFire_548.git
</pre>

This should create a directory called SkyFire_548 that will contain all the files necessary to compile the server and it's tools. Change to the directory, configure, and build.

<pre>
cd SkyFire_548
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../ -DTOOLS=1
make -j(#cores+1)
sudo make install
</pre>

parts in <> to the correct administrative username, and associated password.
Usually the administrative user is root, but you may have altered it.

'''In the terminal window:'''
<pre>mysql -u <mysql_root> -p < ~/SkyFire_548/sql/create/create_mysql.sql
mysql -u <mysql_root> -p auth < ~/SkyFire_548/sql/base/auth_database.sql
mysql -u <mysql_root> -p characters < ~/SkyFire_548/sql/base/characters_database.sql</pre>

----

Grab the latest version of SkyFireDB on. https://codeberg.org/ProjectSkyfire/database/tags
<br>
The DB download contains an installer for Linux and Windows. Also a single Sql file.

'''!!!You will also need to manually run any sql's found in the cores sql folder .../sql/updates/world and .../sql/updates/char!!!'''

(If you are doing this for more than local use you will also need to change a database entry using this mysql command.)
<pre>UPDATE auth.realmlist SET address = "YOUR IP HERE" WHERE id = 1;</pre>

== Configuration ==

Now move and edit the configuration files to run the server.

<pre>
sudo mv /usr/local/skyfire-server/etc/worldserver.conf.dist /usr/local/skyfire-server/etc/worldserver.conf
sudo mv /usr/local/skyfire-server/etc/authserver.conf.dist /usr/local/skyfire-server/etc/authserver.conf
</pre>

Edit worldserver to the correct Mysql user name, password, and your DataDir.
<pre>
sudo nano /usr/local/skyfire-server/etc/worldserver.conf
</pre>

Edit authserver to the correct Mysql user name, password, and your DataDir.
<pre>
sudo nano /usr/local/skyfire-server/etc/authserver.conf
</pre>

Move daemon service files to systemd.
<pre>
sudo mv /usr/local/skyfire-server/etc/worldserverd.service.dist /etc/systemd/system/worldserverd.service
sudo mv /usr/local/skyfire-server/etc/authserverd.service.dist /etc/systemd/system/authserverd.service
</pre>

== Extractor and VMAPs ==

If you need a Windows compiled copy of the DBC Extractor and the tools for the VMAP<BR>
Extraction and assembly you can get a copy of them using your GIT client and download<BR>
them from: https://codeberg.org/ProjectSkyfire/Community-Tools<BR><BR><BR>

The last and final step of setting up SkyFire_548 is to obtain a proper set of maps for use in the server. Change to the WoW directory and run some commands:

<pre>
cd "Wow Directory"
/usr/local/skyfire-server/bin/extractor
/usr/local/skyfire-server/bin/vmap4extractor
sudo mv dbc /usr/local/skyfire-server/bin/dbc
sudo mv db2 /usr/local/skyfire-server/bin/db2
sudo mv cameras /usr/local/skyfire-server/bin/cameras
sudo mv maps /usr/local/skyfire-server/bin/maps
/usr/local/skyfire-server/bin/vmap4assembler
sudo mv vmaps /usr/local/skyfire-server/bin/
</pre>

== Starting and Stoping SkyFire Daemons==
Starting authserver daemon service
<pre>
systemctl start authserverd
</pre>
Starting worldserver daemon service
<pre>
systemctl start worldserverd
</pre>

Stoping authserver daemon service
<pre>
systemctl stop authserverd
</pre>
Stoping worldserver daemon service
<pre>
systemctl stop worldserverd
</pre>

To auto start daemons at startup you need to enable the services
<pre>
systemctl enable authserverd
systemctl enable worldserverd
</pre>

== SkyFire Patcher ==

The client will need to be patched before it can properly connect to the server. Acquire the patcher in the Community Tools repository.

<pre>git clone https://codeberg.org/ProjectSkyfire/Community-Tools.git</pre>

Install Mono in Wine or Crossover Office and run the patcher to modify your WoW.exe file.

to install Mono simply, and correctly configured, please view:
<pre>http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks</pre>
to obtain specific versions/running hackery in your Wine bottle.

This is a basic guide on how to install SkyFire_548 and SFDB from scratch. **Please note this is a work in progress and only contains enough information to get most people a viable server in Linux.

== Prerequisites ==

The compilation of SkyFire_548 and the setup of SFDB will require certain packages to be installed. In Fedora use the following command:
<pre>
sudo yum install g++ make cmake git wget git-core openssl openssl-devel readline-devel zlib-devel bzip2 bzip2-devel
</pre>

You may also want to install phpmyadmin and/or Apache. Do not forget the user and password for the Mysql root user.

'''Installing MySQL'''
Start by downloading the rpm.

== Installing SkyFireDataBase (SFDB) ==

Now we will set up the database framework for which SkyFire will be installed into:

'''It is assumed that you cloned SkyFire_548 into your home directory ~/'''

Replace the parts in <> to the correct administrative username, and associated password.
Usually the administrative user is root, but you may have altered it.

'''In the terminal window:'''
<pre>mysql -u <mysql_root> -p < ~/SkyFire_548/sql/create/create_mysql.sql
mysql -u <mysql_root> -p auth < ~/SkyFire_548/sql/base/auth/auth.sql
mysql -u <mysql_root> -p characters < ~/SkyFire_548/sql/base/character/character.sql</pre>

----

Grab the latest version of SkyFireDB on. https://codeberg.org/ProjectSkyfire/database/tags
<br>
The DB download contains an installer for Linux and Windows. Also a single Sql file.

'''!!!You will also need to manually run any sql's found in the cores sql folder .../sql/updates/world and .../sql/updates/char!!!'''

(If you are doing this for more than local use you will also need to change a database entry using this mysql command.)
<pre>update auth.realmlist set adress = "YOUR IP HERE" where id = 1;</pre>

== Configuration ==

Now move and edit the configuration files to run the server.

<pre>
sudo mv ~/skyfire-server/etc/worldserver.conf.dist ~/skyfire-server/etc/worldserver.conf
sudo mv ~/skyfire-server/etc/authserver.conf.dist ~/skyfire-server/etc/authserver.conf
</pre>

Edit worldserver to the correct Mysql user name, password, and your DataDir.
<pre>
sudo nano ~/skyfire-server/etc/worldserver.conf
</pre>

Edit authserver to the correct Mysql user name, password, and your DataDir.
<pre>
sudo nano ~/skyfire-server/etc/authserver.conf
</pre>

== Extractor and VMAPs ==

If you need a Windows compiled copy of the DBC Extractor and the tools for the VMAP<BR>
Extraction and assembly you can get a copy of them using your GIT client and download<BR>
them from: https://codeberg.org/ProjectSkyfire/Community-Tools<BR><BR><BR>

Before doing any of these commands, follow the guide at
<pre>http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=20549</pre>
to obtain a working installation of the latest WoW 5.4.8 client, then proceed:

The last and final step of setting up SkyFire_548 is to obtain a proper set of maps for use in the server. Change to the WoW directory and run some commands:

<pre>
cd "Wow Directory"
~/skyfire/bin/extractor
~/skyfire/bin/vmap3extractor
mv dbc ~/skyfire/bin/dbc
mv maps ~/skyfire/bin/maps
mkdir vmaps
~/skyfire/bin/vmap3assembler
mv vmaps ~/skyfire/bin/
</pre>

== SkyFire Patcher ==

The client will need to be patched before it can properly connect to the server. Acquire the patcher in the Community Tools repository.

<pre>git clone https://codeberg.org/ProjectSkyfire/Community-Tools.git</pre>

Install Mono in Wine or Crossover Office and run the patcher to modify your WoW.exe file.
