Dahaga why do you always have to be a cunt?

[Alastor]

Its almost everytime that same and its repeating only ...

for example he said what MPq should he choose for mount ? rly ?
from his act i can figure out how much is he good ... then tell me ...

why beginners just cant go to the Tutorial sections and lear da things ...

he is putting here only Unsolvable post that wont help anything


Am i couting on that here on MC are ppls with Better IQ or should i explaing everything thousands times forever ? to everybody like to random scrub that just told to him self "I want Custome Flying Dyno, Lets ask them for help ( i think they enough kind to do it for me) "
or he is jsut too lazy to learn some base info ?

Granted I do not doubt any incompetence here, but I had considered the possibility that he meant to say DBC, but accidentally wrote MPQ. It happens. Judging by his first post, him claiming that he already has the files and tools required, it sounds like he at least has a minimal idea of what he is trying to do here.

I just prefer to give people the benefit of the doubt. And in the event that they truly have no idea what the hell they're talking about, it still doesn't seem necessary to make new people interested in modding feel like shit. The scene is already dwindling as it is.

I would have otherwise never replied to this topic because the question is too vague, if sensible at all. Better to ignore people like that, rather than make Modcraft look like a hostile, un-welcoming environment.

From personal experience, one should just not post instead of flaming people. Unanswered post is okay, flame is a lost user.
So please keep it didn't and try. Be helpful, or just don't post.

Dahaga saying "you need a better translator" made me chuckle.

OK, I'll try to help him, instead of you guys.

You need to create your own MPQ archive with correct folders' structure where you must put texture/model files of your custom mount. Then put this new MPQ into WoW Data folder and name it wow-update-base-100500.MPQ.

For example, if you wanna replace troll raptor with your own brand new fcking awesome mount, then your folder's path will look like: YourPatch.MPQ/Creature/RIDINGRAPTOR.

For icon: YourPatch.MPQ/Interface/Icons/...

To see these paths open your client's MPQs and u'll see them.

Thats how it worked in 3.3.5. As for Cata, I can't guarantee this will fully work, you need check data paths, but at least you can try it and understand the methodology.

I don't even think dahaga was being a ass till our little thread starter asked if he could read.
