### 1) Install AzerothCore  

Follow the Installation instructions and install and setup AzerothCore Fresh Install (we will need this after the conversion).

Make sure you have a fresh installation completed and working with no additional modules before proceeding. 

### 2) Backup your TrinityCore Databases

Backup your TrinityCore Databases before proceeding (always backup before making changes)

- characters
- world

### 3) Character Migration

Download the TC-AC character migration tool.

Now you have your AzerothCore server tested and working we can migrate the characters.

Download TC - AC Migration Tool:  [azerothcorte/ool-tc-migration](https://github.com/azerothcore/tool-tc-migration)

The following files must be run in order from 1 to 4 on your TrinityCore characters database:

- 1_CREATE_CLEANUP_TABLES
- 2_CREATE_MISSING_TABLES
- 3_ALTER_TABLES
- 4_CLEANUP_AND_CONVERT_SPELLS
