New page

== Intoduction ==

The following script allows you to change the realm / character names within your WTF. It is used in the following situations:
* Copying your WTF to the test realm installation
* Moving your characters from one realm to another

The script was developed and tested on a Mac, however it can be run on Linux as-is and on Windows via [http://cygwin.com/ cygwin].

== Usage ==

The script can be stored and run from anywhere.

migrateWTF.sh -a <account name> [-s <source dir>] [-d <destination dir>] -f <realm from> -t <realm to> {-o <old name> -n <new name>}

{|
| -a <account name> || || Name of the account in capitals; this is the directory under World of Warcraft/WTF/Account
|-
| -s <source dir> || (optional) || Source installation directory, defaults to /Applications/World of Warcraft
|-
| -d <destination dir> || (optional) || Destination installation directory, defaults to /Applications/World of Warcraft/WoWTest
|-
| -f <realm from> || || Realm you are migrating from; remember to quote it if it contains special characters
|-
| -f <realm to> || || Realm you are migrating to; remember to quote it if it contains special characters
|-
| -o <old name> || (optional, repeats) || Character name on source realm
|-
| -o <new name> || (optional, repeats) || Character name on destination realm
|}

-o and -n must be specified in pairs; zero or many -o -n pairs may be specified.

== Additional Information ==

To migrate from one realm to another within the same WoW installation i.e. you have moved realms, you should specify the same -s and -d. The old configuration will be backed up to:
World of Warcraft/WTF.beforemigration

== Limitations ==

Only one account may be migrated.

Only one realm may be migrated; you cannot have multiple from or to realms.

== Examples ==

=== Migration from your realm to the test realm without renaming any characters ===

./migrateWTF.sh -a NEMES11 -s "/Applications/World of Warcraft" -d "/Applications/World of Warcraft/WoWTest" -f "Dath'Remar" -t "Test Server (US PVE)"

=== Migration from one realm to another, renaming two toons ===

./migrateWTF.sh -a NEMES11 -s "/Applications/World of Warcraft" -d "/Applications/World of Warcraft" -f "Thunderhead" -t "Privybush" -o Nemes -n Nemesy -o Rhad -n Dhar
