WoW 3.3.5a Linux Desktop Launcher Test (Local Server)
5Launch TrinityCore in separate GNOME Terminal windows (Fedora 39) by right-clicking WoW's desktop launcher. The idea is an easy-to-deploy local private server for solo play, simple save backup/restores, with all upstream files; an overall better option than pre-compiled repacks!

As of March 7th 2024, the notes above are finished and allow for full-deployment of a localhost WoW 3.3.5 server with desktop launchers and database backup/restores! Tested on Fedora Workstation 39, but should work on most other distros! (let me know if anything doesn't)
Easily set-up a fresh-from-upstream clean TrinityCore 3.3.5 server with the highest-quality content extracted from the cleanest WoW 3.3.5 clients available, back-up database data in a clean manner, and deploy and restore it on mostly any mainstream Linux distro, all with human-readable command flow! This beats repacks, and I'm not aware of a cleaner more detailed set-up for WoW 3.3.5 on Linux in-general!
I don't pull-in any extra scripts or modules for stuff like dungeon AI bots, but I'm interested in such things if they're clean and easy to drop-in! I'm interested in a "blizz-like" experience for questing and keep my servers as "blizz-like" as-possible, but if I reach dungeon content or raiding I need to do I probably wouldn't mind just GM-killing stuff for the moment. Can even do a true solo self-found Hardcore run :p
Theoretically the save backup/restores can drop into any TrinityCore-compatible server or repack and vice-versa and even on Windows. With minor changes this should also be a nice template for any other private server project (cmangos, AzerothCore, random source from Razezone, different TrintyCore branches, etc) and different set-ups with MySQL or Clang.
I appreciate all feedback, and any mentions to any other projects doing something similar!
