Introduction

MobiusCore is a MMORPG Framework based mostly in C++.
It is derived from MaNGOS, the Massive Network Game Object Server.

Conclusions after researching for a decent project

  • Repacks cannot be trusted, because most of them are distributed without sources.
  • Badly written code, with no coding standards is hard to track and can result to unwanted game behavior.
  • Communicating with TrinityCore, or other projects, gets offensive for no reason at most times.
  • Everyone mentions how special his project is, but still using actual MaNGOS sources.

Mentality behind the creation of MobiusCore

  • Nostagia for Legion, the expansion that brought the players back to the game, before lore was decimated.
  • Create a community interested in working and sharing openly missing content using the same coding standards.
  • Prefer missing content that can be added relatively easy over time, than no control over the sources.
  • Find the most clean fork of TrinityCore before 7.3.5 branch was removed and move forward from there.
