Description:This is the Classic, Fully Customizable, WarCraft:Source Mod. Rewritten in python for speed and functionality. It is written By: Fredukes and Myself. We have worked hard to make fully customizable and user friendly. We are always happy to hear user input and add any features you find yourself wanting!

In this copy of WCS:Python we are packaging 8 races 4 written By: Fredukes and 4 written By: J3ff.

8 Races Include:

• Undead Scourge
• Human Alliance
• Orcish Horde
• Night Elf
• Pandaren Brewmaster
• Priestess of the Moon
• Shadow Hunter
• Warden

Races are now written each in their own separate file each as a separate script! Races can be written in ESS or ESP, and writing in either one gives you access to all of our custom commands.

Anyone looking for more races to add to their server should check out this:WCS:Python Races

For those wishing to learn how to write races for this wonderful mod check out our WCS:Python Wiki that Fredukes was kind enough to put together for all of us. It contains everything that you need to get started. Anyone who finds themselves liking this and writing more races for it please post them so everyone can enjoy your work!

As always feel free to post any questions you may have about particular things within the mod itself.

And report and bugs or balance issues you may find.

Installing a custom race on your server:

I am going to use my Naga as an example of installing a custom race not packaged with the base WCS:Python download.

First go into your .addons/eventscripts/wcs/races/ folder. Now create a folder called the capitalization is important here! It must be the same as the file and race name you are about to use! Now download load the Naga.py file. And place it in the .addons/eventscripts/wcs/races/Naga/ folder.

Add the line

GeSHi (eventscripts):
wcs load "Naga"

to your WCSRaceLoader.cfg in your .addons/eventscripts/wcs folder.

Reboot your server and you are done
