Many files of WoW change in new [[rev]]isions of the client. Some information may thus be out of date or newer than the version you want. Please note that most information is for WotLK/3.3.5a/12340 or WoD/6.0.1/18179. Also see [[Common_Types]] for a list of types commonly used in the documentation.

Please note that the more recent something is, the likelier the documentation is incomplete. Large amounts of information on the wiki is based on WotLK/3.3.5a/12340 or WoD/6.0.1/18179. Also see [[Common_Types]] for a list of types commonly used in the documentation and [[Client_Error_Analysis]] for commonly found errors the client emits.


If you add new infomations to our wiki please keep in mind to always take care to also write down your [[rev]]isions info! Also, see our list of [[Community Projects]] if you like to look at stuff or need orientation in more than documentation.

Welcome to the WoWDev wiki. For more information about the wiki and its history see the about page.

Many files of WoW change in new revisions of the client. Some information may thus be out of date or newer than the version you want. Please note that the more recent something is, the likelier the documentation is incomplete. Large amounts of information on the wiki is based on WotLK/3.3.5a/12340 or WoD/6.0.1/18179. Also see Common_Types for a list of types commonly used in the documentation and Client_Error_Analysis for commonly found errors the client emits.

If you add new information to our wiki, please keep in mind to always take care to also write down your revisions info! Also, see our list of Community Projects if you like to look at stuff or need orientation more than documentation.
