Therefore, it’s the client is uploaded through third-party sites like Mega, where you get the chance to download the client.
As retail no longer supports patch 1.12.1, which is the version we provide a client download link to in this article, you have to download the older version of it, which retail no longer provides. The shortly explained answer is that it’s a requirement, in order to launch the game, and play on the servers. If you’re new in the Private Server scene, or you just haven’t played on a lot of different Vanilla Private Servers, you might wonder why you have to download a game client.
Note, if you have Mac OSX, Catalina or later, which requires 64 bit apps, you won’t be able to play Vanilla WoW, without some additional modifications. We will be providing you with both a Windows client, as well as a Mac client. Either type works, but we recommend the direct way, as it’s been reported that people get internet strikes when downloading the Vanilla game through Torrents. Either the direct download typing, or the torrent way.
All you have to do after downloading, is to extract the downloaded zip file, and change the realmlist.Īs for downloading, you have two options. Through this page, you can find actual classic files that work. A lot of the listed clients around the internet are either outdated or dead-links. OTHire has it bugs, but it's not filled with bugs at all, some servers already run it with hundred of players online for months and success, it's stable and does the job.Finding a download link for a Vanilla WoW Client that actually works can be a bit of a jungle. It's also has some other shit that you can only find in Nostalrius, like correct shield mechanics for monsters and players. You can test that on any server running the real files and compare with it, like shotting HMM with a low level character. In bold are the thing you can already find in OTHire, it's missing Envenon/Soulfire/Berserk/Poison Storm formulas yet, but others are actually more precise than Nostalrius, that has wrong formulas for attack spells/runes and low level character and knights will do less damage than they should. Regarding main features Ezzz point out distinguish Nostalrius from other servers, they are already present in OTHire since long ago If you want to run it as it is Nostarius is far better, with newer code, but it's not a default otserv, you can't add new features to NPCs like tasks, or add already made map pieces because it's using totally different ids. P.S: You won't get a max hit of 9 from a rat on OTHire, but you will on Nostalrius (true formulas), wearing only a wooden shield, a jacket, a club and two rats attacking you.Īlso have to add, OTHire is lacking every true unique 7.7 quest, because that server is not based on CipSoft files, it's made from scratch using raw LUA, and you're up to find errors and bugs, meanwhile on Nostalrius you're assured a 100% uptime with no crashes or bugs whatsoever. P.S: You can make everything on CipSoft NPCs including task npc, whoever says the opposite is an ignorant. I don't even have anything to say towards your statements, it's just plain ridiculous. You're so wrong in so many levels it's ridiculous, you go ahead and test it on experimental realots server, your nonsense is ridiculous too. OTHire is not accurate on ANYTHING, not even Monsters A.I or path finding, or even monsters cornering, not even formulas or soulfire or evenom runes as you say, Nostalrius is accurate to this, compare to TibiaCams and to experimental RealOTS, so please, your statements are like an insult to my skills.
