I needed to create a Female Forest Troll and Taunka for my server, so I copied the Female Tauren and Female Troll and put them in the correct spot. Then I made a special skin for them and added the information pertaining to that skin into Charsections, I also got a hairstyle done for them. And it looks perfect it Wowmodelviewer.
But ingame, there is no hair, and they do not use any skin, instead just taking the skin of whatever I selected last.
Any idea how to fix it?
-
Set proper flags in creaturedisplayinfo, don't forget the geoset dbc for hair and update server dbc
-
I set the flags in creaturedisplayinfo to match that of the other races. Only Female Broken works (The correct skin shows up etc.)
And the server dbc should not have had any effect on the client side character creation screen.

Touché. Also check flags in ChrRaces. Just some thoughts

I cannot identify anything that would make females not work and males work. I've thought it may be related to the model, but I went through it with 010 editor and found nothing. I can send you a PM with the patch if you'd like?

Feel free to. However, do know that I shall post what the problem was and how I fixed it if I found it. Just making sure you know that.

I don't mind, I support that experience is shared with the community, especially regarding issues such as these.

Ascathos has not gotten back to me in any way. Is anyone else willing to take a look at this?

In all honesty, I kinda forgot about it. Taking a look at it right away.
EDIT:
And as expected, I was right again.
Changed:
File: CreatureModelData.dbc
Column 2 'flags' for ID(2613), ID(2614), ID(2891), ID(2892) to: 2052
Update Local and Server DBC. Test.
-
It didn't fix it unfortunately. They still take on the skin of whatever I selected last.

when ever i have that problem its usually because i messed up the chrsections.dbc. usually a typo if i remember correctly but its been a while. double check the flags for deathknight skins vs regular skins...sorry i couldnt be more help. make sure your skins you made are indexed colors as well. that can cause problems. oh and dont forget to delete your cache files. i have had random issues when i forget to do that when testing.
-
indexed colors?
-
yep. i honestly dont know anything about them except how to do it in photoshop. change the color mode of the pic from rgb (or whatever it is currently) to indexed color. limits the color pallet to 256 colors i believe. player skins must be in indexed color mode.
-
Thank you! That fixed the skin issue! :3
Although the hair is still broken.
Any idea what I can do to fix it? I made an entry in both Charsections, Hairgeoset, and Hairtextures.
-
character sections deems how many hair styles you can choose from. hairgeosets tells you how many there physically are on the model. there may only be 6 geosets but u can make 10 or 20 entries for hairstyle in the charecter sections. and in game it will give you the 20 entries. even if half of them are blank. so if you have 1 or none then that could be why its broken. i have screwed that up many times. lol. make sure charsections.dbc the hair portion is correct. i dont know off hand which column it is. you will have to check the wiki.
-
Maybe I could send it to you in a PM and let you have a look?
-
sure np. send me the charsections, hairgeosetss and facialgeosets dbc's
-
Finally solved this, for anyone wondering..
All the existing non-playable races, have entries for both genders in hairgeosets.
Even Skeleton and Northrend skeleton have entries for a female.
Make sure to edit the first entry for females, as it always defaults to geoset 0, I.E bald/hornless.
