WoWBench/Installing

WoWBench » Installing

Regular installation

Unzip the contents of the zip into a directory. Probably nowhere near your World of Warcraft directory (it's not an AddOn!). Remember to conserve the directory structure in the zip!

Below, we will assume you put it in C:/wowbench.

If you are not running under Win32: Download Lua binaries from http://luabinaries.luaforge.net/

Make sure you get version 5.0.(something), as this is what WoW uses

At this point, you have a working WoWBench, without access to your already-installed addons nor to your configuration files.

You can either:

Keep the default configuration files and copy your AddOn over to C:/wowbench/wow/Interface/AddOns.

- or -

Edit config-dist.lua to point to your existing WoW directory, player name, etc. It is fairly self-documenting.
