Enable them at character select via the AddOns button.Relaunch game (steps two and three are interchangeable really).Put your addons in there with their own respective folders.Find C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\_classic_\Interface\Addons.That's it! That's really all you have to do. Test it out after getting in-game and just log out (not exit the game) to disable any that may not be working. If an addon is in red, it may not work and may cause some issues in-game - though sometimes they work just fine. Log back in, choose which character you want to play as, then look at the bottom left of the screen for the AddOns button.Ĭlick the button and enable all the addons you want to use on that character. Get to Character Select and Enable AddOns Here's a very simple example (Gatherer_HUD does not work with WoWC):ĥ.
You can have a ton of addons - just make sure they're in their respective folders. In this step, you don't want to extract the contents of your addon folders, you simply want to put the entire addons' folders into the Interface\AddOns folder. Place the Addons' Folders into Interface\AddOns Just don't take too long.Įxit the game with the addons you plan to use ready to go. With that in mind, you can hop out, stack your addons into the folders above, and get back in with no trouble. There is a five-minute grace period after you get disconnected to reconnect to the game without a queue. Here's a little tip for you perpetually-idle queue-avoiders: If for some reason there is no AddOns folder (there should be), just create an AddOns folder within Interface and keep going. Just like retail WoW (Isn't WoWC also retail? Whatever.), you should have an Interface folder within the game directory, and an AddOns folder inside it. Those using 32-bit Windows may find the game simply in C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\_classic_, but I'm not 100 sure on that. You can copy the above and paste it into your file browser if you like, or manually seek it out. C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\_classic_.Locate Your World of Warcraft Classic FolderĬhances are your World of Warcraft folder is in the default directory. So you've got some addons you want to slap onto your client, you've got the download pages up or have outright downloaded their. I'm not going to do that since the process is incredibly simple in any case. Looking around, a lot of the tutorials I've found seem to assume people don't know how to unzip things to folders or use a computer much past clicking on shiny icons. If you've installed addons in modern WoW, this whole process really isn't all that much different.
