Hi again, I downloaded two files: one is the RXP addon from GuideForge, and the other is a pack of three guide files. When I try to open the guide files, they give errors. I put them directly into AddOns > RXP > Guides. I also tried using 7zip but it didn’t help — maybe I did something wrong. Do I need to import them in-game or do anything else to make them work?

So you downloaded from Curseforge that is a zip that windows or 7zip can extractQuote:

For the guides, you go to the link, select what you want and then download, then extract to addons
It should not have any errors.

"Bro, I downloaded the Classic guides from the guides you uploaded. There are 3 files inside, but I don’t know where to put them."

I will repeat myselfQuote:

I do not know what you are playing if you do not say, or am I to guess?
Era
Classic
Retail?
If one, then why download all? Do you expect to play Classic and Retail guides on Era and know they do not work
I said extract to addons
You then say, you do not know where to put them. After I told you where to extract them.

Hey! Just wondering if there is a changelog somewhere here to see if and when something is updated.
For example. I know naowh was creating his MOP weakaura's. I am patiently waiting and hoping someone shares it so you can update it.
Right now I am refreshing the download folder, but is there somewhere else I can see changes made?

Check the upload date and it the upload date is new, download and then just scroll to the bottom of the file to see if it is updated.

I was about to buy the guide because no matter what I've tried, I could not get it to work... but decided to try again one more time and found this comment. Thanks to this guy, I was able to finally install it (after 8 failed attempts). The other 1000 pages on this post wont help you, but it's fun to read all the insults against people simply asking for help.Quote:
Hey again, like i said im not great with computer stuff, i said Zip because it has a zipper on it :p.
i dont know the difference between a .rar or a .zip, or .exe, or wtv man, im just asking for help on how to use the link you provided. you dont have to condescend everyone that makes that simple mistake.
thats my bad.
I now realize from what you just said, that i downloaded all the files as a folder, instead of the single one i needed. Which is why im getting a .zip file.
Which you never state at all in your first post. You have zero guides on how to do any of it. You just assume everyone should know exactly what you know.
To everyone whos trying to figure this out after to me. And cant figure it out because the guy just wants to belittle you and not explain anything, but instead just go:
so you did this wrong
so you didnt read
so you made a mistake
so you etc etc etc.
1.Download RXPguides thru Curseforge
2.Open the link this douchebag kindly provided, itll bring you to a file download site.
3.(I couldnt figure out downloading just the file i wanted (ERA), but i did figure out how to do it by downloading the folder)
Download the folder (TOP RIGHT YELLOW BUTTON)
4. Open that folder with and up to date WinRAR
5. EXTRACT the file you want (ERA, Classic or Retail) to the ADDONS folder of the correct game version (ERA, Classic or Retail)
5.5 If you are playing the 20th Anniversary server that's ERA, not CLASSIC.
NOW. In the addon folder should now be two separate instances of RXP folders. (RXPlevelling, and RXPguides)
Thats it. youre done, youre free from this madness.
That took me less than 15 minutes to provide a step by step guide. thats cohesive, and simple for a neanderthal to follow.
i read through like 50 pages of this thread, all you do is get mad at people for making mistakes and condescend them. You even said to one dude that he preys on children.
Youre gross and pathetic, dude.
im just sad this comment will be buried in another 1000 pages of your bitchiness.
Have fun replying to this, cause ill never see it lmao, im never using this site again.
cheers loser :)
Edit: ive chosen to stick around and actually HELP people. idgaf how much this loser cries about how i lied to him lmao.
I did everything correct, every time. Removed addons and saved variables, but my fault was that I was installing the "Classic guide" while I play Anniversary. Even though the leveling limit is 60 and the entire game is played in the classic world, it's not classic.
If you play Anniversary, you must download the ERA guide instead.
Thanks again Donkimus!

You play Anniversary and installed Era. When you look in the Wow Folder you installed Era. When you go to the load the game, it clearly says Era Client.
When coming to choosing the guides, you see Classic and Era. But for some reason you took Classic?
Why do people do that?
They Install Era
Wow Folder is Era
They start the Era Game
Seesm Era and Classsic Guides, know they installed Era and then take classic.

Because winrar already had the path saved, so I didn't pay attention?Quote:

Because, as a returning player after many years, I can't know for sure what Blizzard decides to call any of the versions they launched except for the folder name? FYI: Anniversary is under CLASSIC in Battle.net
Why do people do that?
They Install Era
Wow Folder is Era
They start the Era Game
Seesm Era and Classsic Guides, know they installed Era and then take classic.
Because I download the guide file before I extracted it to the correct folder, making it easy to overlook this info?
It's an honest mistake, and I have a feeling lots of people here are making the same mistake. You keep pointing to your "guide on page 1", but it nowhere mentions any of this.
Feel free to insult the people on the next 1000 pages of this thread for "being stupid". I don't care and I will not notice anyways. I just wanted to thank the user that actually helped me before I had to ask your "help".
Have a nice day!

The only way you can notice you need ERA, is from the folder name. I have a feeling lots of other people have the same problem. Your "guide" doesn't even mention this. Maybe update your "guide" to a better version? Or ask ChatGPT to do it for you?
Keep insulting all these "stupid people" that ask help. I don't care. I wont see it anyways. Half of these people would not have to ask help if it was more clear... But maybe you just like it like this?

This is a classic case of confusion due to file naming and folder structure.Quote:

The file is categorized as "Classic," but when players go to launch it, it starts in the Era client. So, naturally, Will saved the path with all other add-ons under the Era directory. Later, he tried to restore it to a "Classic" folder—one that doesn't even exist in that structure.
The issue is that the file itself works across all versions: Era, SoD, Anniversary, Classic, and Retail. Yet people still ask, "Which file do I download?" Even when both files are clearly labeled, they default to asking.
I'm not calling anyone stupid. I'm simply looking for clarification. But if you're deflecting blame onto me for your own oversight, that’s not fair.
The problem is common: people don’t read. By that logic, some would probably try to install Mac software on Windows. Previously, I labeled the files as "Anniversary" and "Classic." But when Anniversary players saw both, they still picked "Classic"—then complained it didn’t work.
Most users who had trouble installing manually placed their add-ons into the Era folder. Yet when given both files, they picked the one labeled "Classic," even though they had installed everything else under "Era."
Then, after repeated questioning, they finally say—days later—that they’re actually playing Anniversary. Why not just say that at the beginning?
Also, for the record: if you had simply mentioned what version you're playing, this would’ve been solved in the first post. But you didn’t.
And on the note of ChatGPT—if you had asked it, it would’ve told you you’re using Era. Google would’ve said the same. Your WinRAR path shows "ERA/AddOns"—that should’ve been a clue.
Finally, 1,000 posts existed before Anniversary even launched. So what's your point?
[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]
Still shows ERA
Also, you never asked to install so you got no answer.
You never used the feature so you got no answer.
You claim you wait till 1000 pages. Knowing that the thread has existed many years before classic.
But you claim you went for
Knowing that it’s a lie

People mentioned donation before, the same people that mentioned it did nothing when the link was there. When the link was there, nothing happened.Quote:
