Some difficulties with MMORPGS are intrinsic to them being mmorpgs, as compared to Unity games where you get a renderer and can do almost whatever you want with it. World of Warcraft is already a very complex game with a lot of very hardcoded behaviors , spanning multiple popular versions, and all while having to respect the fact that potentially thousands of players must be able to share the resources managed by the server simultaneously. This makes it so even the most seasoned modders struggle to get sometimes even basic behaviors right, and makes it very difficult to come up with a generic formula for how to create various types of entities in the game. On the emulator side of things, it makes it very hard to attract someone both competent and selfless enough to maintain an open source mmorpg server, while also being artistically inclined to acommodate modders on top of it. While I can agree it gets silly at times, I think a lot of modders underestimate how difficult it is to predict what kinds of problems a single change in the core can end up causing for all the non-modded projects out there.
- NovusCore is an attempt to rebuild both the client and server from scratch, but is a very early prototype. Being helpful to this project likely requires more technical knowledge than the others at this stage, but they're very friendly people so there's nothing wrong with asking them directly if you think there's something you can do.
- AzerothCore is generally more friendly to acommodating custom patches than TrinityCore , ships with eluna support and has tools ready for serverside entities (items, quests, creatures etc.), but currently does not focus on client-side modding. This is a large project with many guides for new contributors and is very welcoming of newcomers.
