Time

Step 1.
Open your m2 file in 010editor then go to Template > Open Template > Open the m2 template

Change:
Uint Version under "Value" from 272 to 264.
Now look up for something called "nTexUnit" and change it from 0 to 1 and copy the OfsTransLookup and replace "ofsTexUnit" with that.

Then go to  "uint NCameraLookup" and change it to 0. Change "uint ofsCameraLookup" to 0 (or 0h). Change the "uint nCameras" to 0 and change

is for all the cata models ?

You also need to change the Skin Files, plus changing the camera to 0 not always works... in fact never worked for me. What you need to do is copy some wotlk model camera structure to the cataclysm model, and change the camera offset to point to the new structure that you copied. Also you need to change all the offset of the new structure to properly point to the new directions in the cataclysm model...

Kinda complicated, but not hard to do after you learn how. When i have time i will try to make a guide explaining how to do this.

I managed to get m2's to work by setting the cameras to 0... I did also try it the other way, but Ikinda suck with hex editing, and after pasting the wotlk to the endas you and schlumpf said I didn't know how to get the value to adjust the newly pasted camera :p. Now all I need is to test doing it with particles, which i'll try later today when I get home thanks to Larry

How do you change the skin files? or what do you change them to? because the template can't be run on the skin files and I cant find a solid tutorial anywhere

Just use the batch script from the tools section instead of using this clearly oudated tutorial
