[Solved] Can't find Isle of Giants in ADT files?

[ralmes]

Hey guys, this isn't exactly a modding question but I was hoping somebody here could point me in the right direction.

I'm writing an addon which relies on map information that I extract from the game files. I read through the ADT and WMO files to try and label area names on the map.

Unfortunately, I can't seem to find the Isle of Giants (or the new Timeless Isle). The area they should be in on Pandaria is just marked as ocean.

I thought they might have their own WDT that gets phased into that space but I couldn't find any that looked promising.

I'm running out of ideas and would be grateful for any insight.

You seem not to use the latest patch. At least isle of giants is on map.

I'm trying to put labels on the map like this..

I just pull the area ID of the chunks out of the ADT files. It works almost everywhere except where the Isle of Giants and the Timeless Isle should be.

I know I'm patching the MPQs correctly because the names of the areas are in the DBC files, I just can't find their actual location in the map files.

The textures are there but not the area IDs.

I'm using my own script for this so it's likely I'm missing something when I'm reading through the files.

Here's what it looks like around the Isle of Giants for my map (the outlines are a little off but that's because I used fewer points than I should have)..

Anyway did you need the ADT files for Isle of Giants... didn't really understand your question.



The ADT's here are 29_19, 30_19, 28_20, 29_20, 30_20, 28_21, 29_21, and 30_21.

From going through the adt's individually with a Tallis made WDT.


Also Where is TImeless Isle at? What patch did it come out in?  I've not played retail long enough to fully check out the island >.<

Timeless isle will come with 5.4 and is located on the lower right side of pandaria.

That explains why I've not seen it. XD. Thanks.

--Edit---

Just incase you wanted the ADT's.  These are the ADT's I gathered for TImeless Isle:

40_31, 41_31
40_32, 41_32, 42_32, 43_32
40_33, 41_33, 42_33, 43_33
40_34, 41_34, 42_34, 43_34

Oh my god, ignore my post, schlumpf was right about it not being patched.

The way I was loading the MPQs it was only patching the first one in the list and now I feel like an idiot.

Thanks for your help guys!
