## WoW Data Files
The client needs access to WoW 3.3.5a data files for terrain, models, and textures.
The client needs access to extracted WoW data (terrain, models, textures) indexed by `manifest.json`.
If you have a fresh WoW install (MPQs only), extract once with:
```bash
./extract_assets.sh /path/to/WoW-3.3.5a/Data wotlk
```
### Setting WOW_DATA_PATH
```bash
# Linux/Mac
export WOW_DATA_PATH="/path/to/WoW-3.3.5a/Data"
export WOW_DATA_PATH="/path/to/extracted/Data"
# Or add to ~/.bashrc
echo 'export WOW_DATA_PATH="/path/to/WoW-3.3.5a/Data"' >> ~/.bashrc
echo 'export WOW_DATA_PATH="/path/to/extracted/Data"' >> ~/.bashrc
source ~/.bashrc
# Run client
cd /home/k/Desktop/wowee/wowee
cd /path/to/wowee
./build/bin/wowee
```
### Data Directory Structure
Your WoW Data directory should contain:
Your extracted data directory should contain (example):
```
