Introduction
Are you new to the private server scene and want to know how to get started? Look no further! In this article, we will guide you through the step-by-step process of downloading the Everlook WoW Private Server client. By the end of this guide, you will have everything set up and be ready to play on the private server when it officially launches.
Step 1: Visit the Everlook Website
Before we begin, it’s important to note that the developers estimate a November launch for the server. However, as of the recording of this video on August 18th, the PTR is set to drop on August 20th. So make sure to stay updated with the latest news from the developers.
To download the 1.12 client, you need to visit the Everlook website. In the FAQ section, you will find a hyperlink under the spells and talents section. This link will take you to a website called DKP Minus, which is where you can download the client.
Step 2: Streamline the Download Process
When you visit the DKP Minus website, you might notice that there are many links available, including links for other private servers. If you prefer a more streamlined process, we recommend visiting zremax.com blog. They have a page specifically for vanilla WoW client downloads. Alternatively, you can search for the terms “1.12.1 client download” on Google, and the website should be the first result.
Once you are on the website, scroll down to find the different download options. Choose the one that suits you best. For example, you can download the client from Elysium, Nostalrius, or choose the Mac version. For this guide, we will select the client from Nostalrius.
Step 3: Download and Install the Client
When you click on the download link, it will take you to a page on Mega where the client can be downloaded. The file size is slightly over 5 GB, so depending on your internet speed, it should only take a few minutes to download.
Once the download is complete, open the downloaded file. You will see a folder named “wow-classic.” This is the folder we need to access. Inside the folder, you will find the “wow-1.12.1-setup” file. Click on it to run the automatic setup wizard. No need to adjust any settings during the installation process.
After the installation is complete, you will have a folder named “World of Warcraft Classic” on your computer. Open the folder to find all the necessary files, folders, and extensions.
Step 4: Configure the Realmlist
To prepare for the official launch of the Everlook private server, you need to modify the realmlist file. Inside the “World of Warcraft Classic” folder, locate the “notepad” folder and open it. Inside, you will find a file named “realmlist.” Open this file using a text editor such as Notepad.
In the text document, you will see a line that reads “set realmlist login.nostalrius.org.” This is where you need to make a small change. Replace “login.nostalrius.org” with the name provided by the Everlook developers.
Save the changes and exit the file. Congratulations! You have successfully configured the realmlist and are now ready to play on the Everlook private server.
