World of
Warcraft online play
Published March 3rd, 2005 in General,
Games and Deals.
World of Warcraft is a great game except
the $14.99 monthly fee is a bit steep.
However, you can play on a emulated WoW
private server for free.
1) Install World of Warcraft. How you
obtain World of Warcraft is up to you.
You can either buy or download it at ISO
Hunt. Downloading it at ISO Hunt may be
illegal.
2) Sign up for an account on the Dark
Knights’ server. Use IE to register.
3) Edit your realmlist.wtf file. If you
went with the default installation, it
should be located at “C:\Program
Files\World of Warcraft\realmlist.wtf”.
Open it in Notepad and change the
current text to “set realmlist
dkr.no-ip.org”.
4) Download this update if your World of
Warcraft version number is lower than
1.2.3. All private servers run either on
1.2.3 or 1.2.4. If you are running 1.2.3
it will automatically download an update
to 1.2.4. If you are running lower than
1.2.3 it will not download update
automatically, so you will have to
download this manual update.
5) Download WDBRemover and run it before
playing World of Warcraft. It will help
reduce the amount of errors that appear
when playing World of Warcraft.
6) Open up World of Warcraft. To login
in simply use the username and password
you registered for earlier at
http://dkr.no-ip.org:8080/. That should
be it! Just make sure you are running
WDBRemover while playing World of
Warcraft.
If you are still running into error
problems try running Blizzard’s repair
tool.. .
