Is ground clutter server side stuff? I want to add more grass to Stormwind Mage Quarter :)
btw someone posted Cata+ trees here, but the game's FPS drops when I use it... if I merge it with your mod, do you think the game will be faster? (my logic: less patches -> less loading time)

nope i dont think that it would be faster.
My textures just need more vram but the trees also need more gpu power.
for faster loading a ssd could help^^

I must have missed that, do you have the link? For some reason the patch I have is missing some trees (like the Cata Elwynn Forest trees)

If I remember correctly, this topic was it: http://www.modcraft.io/index.php?topic=8779.msg43334#msg43334
But also, there's this: http://www.modcraft.io/index.php?topic=7894.msg36670#msg36670
I use them both and they work great :) Just expect 30-40 minus FPS while playing (for example Elwynn Forest - I only get around max 27 FPS there, otherwise around 120 FPS)

Edit: I made a demonstration video, you can check the FPS counter in the lower left corner of the screen, below the chat: https://youtu.be/SC_6daiNw-k
As I wrote in the description, it's a miracle, but I now got 50 FPS while in Elwynn... maybe because it wasn't raining, but on the server I play on it's usually raining there all the time :')

maybe just not enough gpu power idk, the new trees have 2x texture size and maybe 2-4x more faces and that on a single tree.
Lower a bit shadow maybe help^^.
But bad fps in dala is normal  ^^

I personally think, that the game is playable this way :D I used to play with your models on an older laptop and I got a constant 20-40 FPS which is nice I guess... compared to that, 22-120 is very decent haha :D

I wanted to fix the tree's textures, but the whole patch is FuckItUpd, so there's no listfile :/ I just want to lower the res a bit, so maybe I'll port them back from Cata...

hello there!

I'm watching pics of your work and looks beautiful. But I'm not understanding how can I put these Texture Patchs to work with my WoW - WOTLK 3.3.5a.

What I did is copy and paste the patch files F and G to \Data folder, but when I run the game, I'm only getting NPC's with bad textures. The rest of the game.... just keeps the same as vanilla, nothing changes.

Can you or someone help me?

did you download the 'new' version of warmane's wotlk client? if so, find patch-w in the data folder and delete it, and then find patch-enUS/enGB...etc-W.mpq in the data/enUS(/enGB...etc) folder and delete that too. after that all of Finsternis's patches should work fine :)

Great idea, I can say that refresh the whole game. Grass, walls, stones, etc really nice. Thanks for the mod man!  ;) 8)
