Thank you. There are a few others that were a lot of fun to do for Turtle WoW. One over covid that look at Twow and Vanilla plus, back when Van Plus was on a steady rise. The other was the year long rise of Classic WoW, showing how Twow grew massively over that following year. Glad you are enjoying!
Really great video, Maze. Your explanations are so clear, you convinced me to finally try the mods (voice over is freaking amazing!). Thanks for this. :)
That is great to hear. Their forums and even discord are really active and informative as well. If you happen to join the Twow Discord be sure to look into the mods/addons and other channels. The general chat is what you would expect an mmo discord general chat to be :P
You have NO IDEA what you have done! Ive been tinkering with Turtle for about 2 hrs off and on over 2 days trying to get the Vanilla eyeblight removed (Classic did a pretty fair job cleaning a lot up). I had given up, then you showed me LEGION character models are available.... still going through your suggestions and recommendations to tweak this game but man, it's already 1000% better for me!
Glad I could help. And I agree, i like all these upgrades and QOL things the addons/mods can add. Its the game play and mechanics that make classic what it was, not the menu or graphics in the end. Adding in these things for better UI and kind of updated graphics just makes it nice and more user friendly.
My wishlist for changes is. Rotation for ret paly, removal of modify next weapon swing mechanic on warrior to make heroic strike instant like it is since cata on retail. New models, ai upscaled textures from retail and animation frameworks, battle for azzeroth dx12 and light and ray casting features. All this and I am happy. It will be perfect 1-60 experience.
Those are all good. Graphics and updates are always great. I like them and it doesn't affect the way the game remains in its classic playstyle. Its the core game play mechanics that make it that way. Swing mechanics for instant heroic strike would be great, as warrior is one of my most often played wow class.
I hadn't noticed that on my mage or warrior. But its very possible it could be and might be more based on what race you are playing as each race has different casting animations. I know previously there had been bugs with the Tauren so I'll look into it and see.
All my turtle wow videos should have the HD graphics installed. I could do a new one as well showing how each one looks as well as texture changes around the world.
They were last I downloaded them. That was about three months ago. Let me check the forums and see. Honestly the best place to check is the twow discord. They have a channel for addons/mods and the creator of the HD patches and other addons/mods are active and will reply.
getting inside stormwind city is a nightmare, my frames drop so much. i've heard about this thing about "vanila fix" but im a bit skeptical about using it. i have a very powerful machine so i know its 100% the client
Yes, if you having a good cpu and are getting frame drops or lag its server/client based. I've only had really bad frame drops a couple times and I assume its due to the distance I am from their servers. Vanilla fix and tweaks is something to look into however. Just join the twow discord if you have any questions, they have rooms to help out and you often can get replies from the moderators or those that work with said addon.
@ebossnz6838 I agree, but there is a lot of controversy when you start to add in game purchases. I've hit 60 on HC turtle wow and I love it. However, there is a fine line here. I hope blizzard leaves turtle wow alone.
Agreed. And its a version and playstyle of the game that Blizzard isn't really interested in. If nothing else this keeps people being happy and most everyone I play with on Twow is also subbed to retail WoW. Its just an alternative for them to get those old feels again and grind.
Yeah. I am overall ok with their 'donations' The cosmetics are neat but some of the things are boarderline too much. The playstyle of this classic version and offering a mailbox on demand... and a mule to carry your things and access your bank. It helps out anyone thats pushing mats at high levels. But even that.. overall.. I can deal with. I don't see them adding anything more that would ride the line of QoL and an all around advantage.
Honestly if was the ceo of blizzard I'd do 1 of 2 things. Either go after every ps or go after the ones with populations, find out why and find ways to bring them in to blizzard as a subsidiary and offer them the resources to flourish thus furthering blizzards overall income
@@MazePerceptionyeah, I bought the "Human Dalaran Skin" it didn't work and Turtle don't refund people with tokens. Suck Turtle GM just keep telling me to delete my WDB folder , which dose absolutely nothing
hey im having some issues with the HD mods, i follow instructions to the letter, i get the textures in game but there are some weird visual bugs on my character. like my weapons and shield not getting drawn or when i fire my bow its invisible and makes no sound. is this known and is there a fix for it?
I do know that the weapon not drawing was an issue previously, but that was fixed a while back. If you have the newest version of the patches and its still doing that, I would join the Twow discord and jump over to the addons/mod help. The guy that created the graphics mod is active in there and will likely reach out to you directly.
I know pfui has one included but I don't think it was working correctly. You can also try github.com/refaim/SortBags and see. I've not used it yet so am not sure.
What time stamp period are you referring to? That way I know which bar and ui addons are being used. There are a couple of addons that can adjust these as well as the UI itself most times.
Because you are installing two things that do the same thing. Both are a UI overhaul, so both are meant to change the UI. It would be similar to downloading something to make all the hats red and then downloading another to make all the hats green. If you really want to try and use them both think of each one as the same thing, and each one is in 'pieces'. You can take said pieces and make sure that 'piece' you want is only active in DFUI or Shagu, not both. An example would be the mini map.. make sure you see which UI's version you like and then disable it on the other UI so only one is trying to work. You are likely to still run into errors but I know that with some work you can get the best of each one and make it work.
Yeah I will be doing a new on for Twow here soon. Not been active there the past few months so it needs done. There is another previous video that shows more of the mods in game as well.
I installed an addon by mistake and am trying to uninstall it but keeps giving me an error: 'The action cannot be completed because says the folder or a file is open in another program.' I know for afact I closed everything and it still says this.
AUX is by far the better for quick posting and knowing what the current market value is on the AH and how many are posted. Makes selling and posting things very quick and easy.
Could be a few reasons, most might require you to delete all of and then reinstall Twow. Its not overly large so doesn't take long. Another issue may be if you had not yet logged into turtle wow. Make sure you log into and run the game at least one time so the needed files on start up/folders are created. See if either of those work.
The pfui addon is going to have the most options with unit frames health bars and anything like that. The customization is ridiculous and touches pretty much every part of the games ui bars and everything in between.
@@MazePerception yes i know pfUI and used a lot. i use dragonflight for its clean and simple style . just wanted to make player health frame thicker and target frame aswell like first minute in video .
hey man community helper guy here please don't send people to legacy-wow for addons. instead send them to the community addons wiki. The legacy wow site stole their list from our wiki, many months ago. However, they didn't even steal our complete list of all addons, just some! so they are missing a ton of important stuff. and also, we've in the mean time made updates to addons, and new maintainers take over offering improved versions, and yeah this is all on the wiki, and not on the legacy site. on the wiki we also have the install guides, directions to use the GUI addons manager for those who want that... so yeah please direct people there.
I have in the past, in the previous video there was one to the turtle wiki. I'll add the wiki link in the desc as well, as it is very helpful. Has the GUI manager been updated or modified in some way in the past 18 months? As I do many videos for mods/addons for games on this channel I had used the GUI manager in the past. And found it less of a hassle and faster to just manually drop in my addons.
@@MazePerception thanks m8 yeah the gui manager versus manual installs... its a even debate either way. If you are just getting started as a fresh player, i think the manual installs could be nicer. but if you intend to stick around for months and eventually start raiding, thats when the manager's update all in 1 click feature is super duper awesome. and since twow's new content regularly breaks some addons requiring updates, like pfui's maps need updating every time a new zone is added, yeah the manager is what i recommend if someone asks me. It hasnt been updated in a while so any old guide you have is still valid for it.
You download it and move it into your turtlewow game folder. It will have the windows display/application looking icon. Links in description or just google turtlewow vanilla tweaks
Yeah, they reset the website the other day. Not sure how long until they get it back up and going. Will keep updated and if anything comes I can try and post it here.
Anyone else want to go to the website of turtle wow and download the client so they can play? I live in the Eu and for some reason when i try to go to the website of turtle on my pc or mobile, the website just doesnt open...
Well here's the link to sign up and dl the client turtle-wow.org/ I'm sure thats the one you were going to, but just wanted to check. It's working for me.
hello! Great video! I am having a trouble with the Project HD addon, I can't seem to access the turtle wow forum page so I had to use the github page to download all 3 MPQs. On the github page though they say that it requires a MPQ download (and placed in the directory along the a/b/c .mqps) and to find that in the releases tab..unfortunately I can't see anything there besides patches.
You should only need those that are called patch. The files used are named patch-a.mpq, patch-b.mpq and patch-c.mpq. Let me look again. Also I would recommend jumping into the twow discord as well. All the patch/addon/mod creators are very active on there and due to the site being down are helping people out with information as well as links
Yeah, oddly I have my wide monitor as my secondary so get to avoid that. I will see, ive seen some things about this on the forums and I thought there was an easy fix.
As far as I know 21:9 is fully supported with Vanilla Fixes/Tweaks. I run my 32:9 monitor also as secondary via my laptop. But the only way I get it working is 16:9 with black bars, but for that I need to open the Nvidia Control Panel and change the resolution to 2560x1440 and scaling by GPU. Would really be nice to not having to do this each time and being able to play without black bars, but I haven't found a solution yet.
The more I look into it the more it seems like you are going to have to do that manually each time. I'll keep looking around on the forums, as people pop up with new little fixes pretty often there. Also did you try the twow discord?
Thanks for the info. Yes, I alleady asked on the Discord, but didn't receive a useful answer, I might will ask soon again, maybe someone will read it who knows a solution. Otherwise I hope the UE5 update in 2025 will support 32:9.
There have been a lot of 1:1 servers over the years. I think the desire for them fades fast. The fresh come in level up then its not longer fresh so they leave.
No, just like wow the only way you can play on it on a phone or steam deck is through the steam remote desktop app. Then open it that way. No clue how the controls would work. But you can google wow mobile or steam desk top for ways to do this.
@@zarman189 Yeah I have no clue what the bindings would be. I've seen things on it before but my knowledge on it isn't that great. I would search up reddit maybe and see if you can get any more info. That's also pretty neat, I am going to have to look into it as well and see. Classic on the go is always a very great idea.
@@zarman189 Yeah. Reason being wow has just never been made for console gaming or controller playing. And being just an old blizzard engine version thats still the case.
One item is broken on my main and I cant use the hd add on at all because it crashes the game :( hopefully july 7ths update will be a cool and stable one~!
Once you unzip it it creates a folder named - aux-addons-vanilla-master You place this folder in your turtle wow/interface/addons and rename the folder to aux-addon
Private, been around for a while now and more content on the way. Seems there has been an issue with the web page over the past week or so. You can always try the discord as well, its always active and can dl the client from there. discord.com/invite/turtlewow
You can check the sites page and read up on any trouble shooting that is needed. Is this a fresh install of Twow? Has vanilla tweaks been there before and you are replacing it? It should work just like it did in the video as that is all in real time, just drag drop and the tweaked exe will pop up. Check into these things and see then let me know.
@@MazePerception Thanks for the response. It was a pretty old install of Twow that I just fully updated yesterday after watching your video. Vanilla tweaks has never been there before
ConsolePort kind of sort of for retail, you could look at it and see if it has support for older versions of the client. But even that isn't all that great, but it does get by. But to my knowledge there is not one that works for this old version of the client.
@@MazePerception thank you for the tip, i actually managed to add the game into steam and there i could set the keybinds for a controller so its all sorted now. :)
Oh wow, I have mine linked through steam as well and never even thought of doing this. Going to check this out. yeah steam desktop was the way people were first playing wow on their phones so seems steam is helps out once again!
Yes the sites been down for several weeks now. Everything is linked through and in their discord as well. Its also a very active discord so you can even get recommendations and feed back from those that make the addons as well as players.
Seems like a pretty good move. And they should have to fight less with the hard coded systems for their expansive mechanics and additions to the game. Also pretty cool they are leaving a 'vanilla' like option too as a choice.
If someone wants the hd updates. Nothing that's really needed and the turtle client is going to real engine some time next year. Mostly its just the addons like retail, there is also a gui addon somewhat kind of like curseforge that you can use instead of doing it manually. But yeah, a few steps based on preferences.
I don't use the had graphics addon so not something you have to do. Addons on the other hand have just been part of wow since nearly the start. Agreed however, much of this should have just been added and part of the game.
1:26 Won't lie, that looks terrible. Looks like a random 'I remade WoW in Unreal' video where it's cartoony models in realistic lighting and it just feels so, wrong.
@@abdallahhakeem5185 I think that the nighttime places like Duskwood look great. But during the day, it just looks, wrong. Legitimately looks like Insignious porn.
@@bellidrael7457 that’s my PoV as well, every nighttime vista looked jaw dropping, but daytime looks like Genshin Impact. I was going to be disappointed but that duskwood and ashenvale rolled in and BAM If I can, I’d stick to night, which was always my vibe anyways
the unreal version coming in 2025? It looked really nice in a lot of ways. Some things still seemed off. But graphically as long as it keeps the wow style of art I am pretty good with anything. Being such an old game its the mechanics and other things that make this old version of wow fun to still come back to. I would play classic types of wow on the original graphics or on unreal.
the pve server is doing better than the first few years it started. They also had a large eastern playerbase though now that China and Blizzard are no longer at odds.. at least I think.. a lot of those will be able to go back to Retail. But there is still a large group that wants to stick with a fresh idea of classic. Its first few years you were lucky to find 200 people online. So its been some very good growth.
Turtle WoW server? Yeah guilds have been clearing nax for a very long time. Always new guilds gearing up or returning for fresh players to do the same.

please don't send people to legacy-wow for addons. instead send them to the community addons wiki. The legacy wow site stole their list from our wiki, many months ago. However, they didn't even steal our complete list of all addons, just some! so they are missing a ton of important stuff. and also, we've in the mean time made updates to addons, and new maintainers take over offering improved versions, and yeah this is all on the wiki, and not on the legacy site. on the wiki we also have the install guides, directions to use the GUI addons manager for those who want that... so yeah please direct people there.
I have in the past, in the previous video there was one to the turtle wiki. I'll add the wiki link in the desc as well, as it is very helpful.
Has the GUI manager been updated or modified in some way in the past 18 months? As I do many videos for mods/addons for games on this channel I had used the GUI manager in the past. And found it less of a hassle and faster to just manually drop in my addons.
@@MazePerception thanks m8
yeah the gui manager versus manual installs... its a even debate either way. If you are just getting started as a fresh player, i think the manual installs could be nicer. but if you intend to stick around for months and eventually start raiding, thats when the manager's update all in 1 click feature is super duper awesome. and since twow's new content regularly breaks some addons requiring updates, like pfui's maps need updating every time a new zone is added, yeah the manager is what i recommend if someone asks me. It hasnt been updated in a while so any old guide you have is still valid for it.
Iam missing in my Wow folder " Vanilla-twaks.exe" , why ? can you help
You download it and move it into your turtlewow game folder. It will have the windows display/application looking icon. Links in description or just google turtlewow vanilla tweaks
Really wanna know when they will fix the mod site.
Yeah, their discord is working to get links out when people need them. But the main site really does need fixed
@@MazePerception it is sad that some people had to ruin it. I hope it will back up running rather sooner than later. :D
I'm getting "Connection timed out Error code 522" on the forum.
Yeah, they reset the website the other day. Not sure how long until they get it back up and going. Will keep updated and if anything comes I can try and post it here.
Anyone else want to go to the website of turtle wow and download the client so they can play?
I live in the Eu and for some reason when i try to go to the website of turtle on my pc or mobile, the website just doesnt open...
Well here's the link to sign up and dl the client turtle-wow.org/
I'm sure thats the one you were going to, but just wanted to check. It's working for me.
@@MazePerception thank you so much. It did work now!
How to make quest text go faster
In the old wow ui you just go to interface options and turn on instant quest text
hello! Great video! I am having a trouble with the Project HD addon, I can't seem to access the turtle wow forum page so I had to use the github page to download all 3 MPQs. On the github page though they say that it requires a MPQ download (and placed in the directory along the a/b/c .mqps) and to find that in the releases tab..unfortunately I can't see anything there besides patches.
You should only need those that are called patch. The files used are named patch-a.mpq, patch-b.mpq and patch-c.mpq. Let me look again. Also I would recommend jumping into the twow discord as well. All the patch/addon/mod creators are very active on there and due to the site being down are helping people out with information as well as links
the link to the vanilla tweaks dont work for me
yeah can confirm the website is down due to an issue
A fix for 32:9 monitors would be so nice
Yeah, oddly I have my wide monitor as my secondary so get to avoid that. I will see, ive seen some things about this on the forums and I thought there was an easy fix.
As far as I know 21:9 is fully supported with Vanilla Fixes/Tweaks. I run my 32:9 monitor also as secondary via my laptop. But the only way I get it working is 16:9 with black bars, but for that I need to open the Nvidia Control Panel and change the resolution to 2560x1440 and scaling by GPU. Would really be nice to not having to do this each time and being able to play without black bars, but I haven't found a solution yet.
The more I look into it the more it seems like you are going to have to do that manually each time. I'll keep looking around on the forums, as people pop up with new little fixes pretty often there. Also did you try the twow discord?
Thanks for the info. Yes, I alleady asked on the Discord, but didn't receive a useful answer, I might will ask soon again, maybe someone will read it who knows a solution.
Otherwise I hope the UE5 update in 2025 will support 32:9.
so why is no one able to just recreate a 1:1 vanilla wow? not even blizzard itself?
There have been a lot of 1:1 servers over the years. I think the desire for them fades fast. The fresh come in level up then its not longer fresh so they leave.
Is there a console port like addon so i can play on my steamdeck?
No, just like wow the only way you can play on it on a phone or steam deck is through the steam remote desktop app. Then open it that way. No clue how the controls would work. But you can google wow mobile or steam desk top for ways to do this.
@MazePerception it opens on my steamdeck but I can't configure the spells so I can play... erf. Also I tried one thing now it keeps crashing.
@@zarman189 Yeah I have no clue what the bindings would be. I've seen things on it before but my knowledge on it isn't that great. I would search up reddit maybe and see if you can get any more info. That's also pretty neat, I am going to have to look into it as well and see. Classic on the go is always a very great idea.
@MazePerception appreciate you getting back to me! I'll keep researching. Just wish console port worked. It was super easy and user friendly
@@zarman189 Yeah. Reason being wow has just never been made for console gaming or controller playing. And being just an old blizzard engine version thats still the case.
One item is broken on my main and I cant use the hd add on at all because it crashes the game :( hopefully july 7ths update will be a cool and stable one~!
If its crashing on launch it sounds like something might not be right. Its a really small game overall, might just want to fully delete and reinstall!
how do i install aux?it is not showing in the addon menu
Once you unzip it it creates a folder named - aux-addons-vanilla-master
You place this folder in your turtle wow/interface/addons and rename the folder to aux-addon
im simple man i saw beauty i click it
Yes and this really is a simple and beautiful game. Gland you enjoyed :)
is this a private server or from blizzard? how do you get to play this one?
Private, been around for a while now and more content on the way. Seems there has been an issue with the web page over the past week or so. You can always try the discord as well, its always active and can dl the client from there. discord.com/invite/turtlewow
Vanilla tweaks doesn’t create a new file for me
You can check the sites page and read up on any trouble shooting that is needed. Is this a fresh install of Twow? Has vanilla tweaks been there before and you are replacing it? It should work just like it did in the video as that is all in real time, just drag drop and the tweaked exe will pop up. Check into these things and see then let me know.
@@MazePerception Thanks for the response. It was a pretty old install of Twow that I just fully updated yesterday after watching your video. Vanilla tweaks has never been there before
Great. So you were able to get it to add the new exe then?
@@MazePerception nope
does anyone have a working addon or solution to play the game with a controller?
ConsolePort kind of sort of for retail, you could look at it and see if it has support for older versions of the client. But even that isn't all that great, but it does get by. But to my knowledge there is not one that works for this old version of the client.
@@MazePerception thank you for the tip, i actually managed to add the game into steam and there i could set the keybinds for a controller so its all sorted now. :)
Oh wow, I have mine linked through steam as well and never even thought of doing this. Going to check this out. yeah steam desktop was the way people were first playing wow on their phones so seems steam is helps out once again!
@@Wickk7 what are you currently playing on? Pc? Or a handheld
Links are dead
Yes the sites been down for several weeks now. Everything is linked through and in their discord as well. Its also a very active discord so you can even get recommendations and feed back from those that make the addons as well as players.
“Their own engine is the least likely” well at least it wasn’t technically their own engine lmao
I know. I didn't want to overhype the possibility and really assumed a reshade.. not a switch to a different engine.
I like your ui
Thank you! I mostly use the classic looking shagutweaks and then use the mod 'move anywhere"
It's not chilled with all those HC players bouncing around.
You find them questing around you distracting or the fact they create a two player community during the leveling experience?
And so, they Will launch his Custom Client, awesome 2025 for twow players :)
Seems like a pretty good move. And they should have to fight less with the hard coded systems for their expansive mechanics and additions to the game. Also pretty cool they are leaving a 'vanilla' like option too as a choice.
@@MazePerception agree, just to clear, they say the legacy client will be left behind when they think s time, but hell yeah lest do this :D
So after 20 thousand steps. You can have the game running and looking great….Dam…😢
If someone wants the hd updates. Nothing that's really needed and the turtle client is going to real engine some time next year. Mostly its just the addons like retail, there is also a gui addon somewhat kind of like curseforge that you can use instead of doing it manually. But yeah, a few steps based on preferences.
The fact i have to do all this makes me not play the game.
I don't use the had graphics addon so not something you have to do. Addons on the other hand have just been part of wow since nearly the start. Agreed however, much of this should have just been added and part of the game.
1:26 Won't lie, that looks terrible. Looks like a random 'I remade WoW in Unreal' video where it's cartoony models in realistic lighting and it just feels so, wrong.
Yeah, hard telling what its going to look like or what it is.
@@bellidrael7457 What are your thoughts on it now? Since they showcased the new lighting option?
@@abdallahhakeem5185 I think that the nighttime places like Duskwood look great. But during the day, it just looks, wrong. Legitimately looks like Insignious porn.
@@bellidrael7457 that’s my PoV as well, every nighttime vista looked jaw dropping, but daytime looks like Genshin Impact.
I was going to be disappointed but that duskwood and ashenvale rolled in and BAM
If I can, I’d stick to night, which was always my vibe anyways
the unreal version coming in 2025? It looked really nice in a lot of ways. Some things still seemed off. But graphically as long as it keeps the wow style of art I am pretty good with anything. Being such an old game its the mechanics and other things that make this old version of wow fun to still come back to. I would play classic types of wow on the original graphics or on unreal.
it's sad because turtle wow is dying , unfortunately . the pvp server is dead .
the pve server is doing better than the first few years it started. They also had a large eastern playerbase though now that China and Blizzard are no longer at odds.. at least I think.. a lot of those will be able to go back to Retail. But there is still a large group that wants to stick with a fresh idea of classic. Its first few years you were lucky to find 200 people online. So its been some very good growth.
@@MazePerception unfortunetely , i am a pvp player and i am disapointed by the pvp server for now ...
@@Gamer-sv2mz ur retarded 5k on nordaneer aint dead idiot
@@Gamer-sv2mz there's plenty of pvp on the pve server
@@bnutplayer8450 ha ?
Does it work in naxx? No errors ?
Turtle WoW server? Yeah guilds have been clearing nax for a very long time. Always new guilds gearing up or returning for fresh players to do the same.
