How to change starting talents points [arcemu]

[Sandile]

As you might have seen the config option to chose starting talent points have been removed. I wanted on my server to start on lvl 80 so then I made so the players started with 71 talent points.
This can be done very easy if you have a compiled arcemu server (THIS WILL NOT WORK ON A REPACK AND NOT ON ANY OTHER CORE THAN ARCEMU).
To do this go into your arcemu folder(the SVN folder) then follow these directions. Trunk -> src -> arcemu-world -> Player (make sure you open the C++ Source and not the C++ header and open it with notepad or something like that).
Now in that file go to row 763 or search for PLAYER_CHARACTER_POINTS1
Now you will see this

	if(class_ == DEATHKNIGHT)
		SetUInt32Value(PLAYER_CHARACTER_POINTS1,xx); // Default is 0 in case you do not want to modify it
	else
		SetUInt32Value(PLAYER_CHARACTER_POINTS1,xx);

The red xx is where you put your number of how many talent points you want them to start with. The first xx is for Deathknight and the second is for the rest of the classes. so if you have starting level 70 then you should probably put 61 here.(Blizzlike values), I suggest you put the same talent points for both dk and the other classes if they have the same starting level.
Then save your file and recompile the source. Start up your server and it's done

Please repost if you are having issues. (NOT IF YOU USE A REPACK OR ANOTHER CORE THAN ARCEMU)

Can't do without Compiling your own Server, Self-Compiled Server > Repack. Can customize it more, A lot more stable and better, Also add C++ Scripts.

Thanks Sandile for the info. Will this change the starting points for all realms on the server or can you specify which realm?

[Sandile]

If all realms use the same core then all realms. If you use different cores for each realm then it will only be used on the realm wich uses the core. You can ofc make this a config option and then take it for specified realms, but then you will have to find a guide on how to do it.
