[TOOL] [Adt edit] ADT Converter

<< < (4/20) > >>

Steff:
Could your write a basic tutorial how to get ADTs woring in an 4.0 emu/clinet.
Converting from 335a to 4 and add water. Whould be nice. I also think about to switch to 4.

Mjollna:
Hi :)

I'd gladly write a tutorial, but I don't see exactly what I'm supposed to write in it... Converting is just really easy, open the program, choose a folder, click on convert : done. Then nothing differs on the way the patch is done, for Cata or LK...

For water, I just use AllWater LK from Gretchin, the one with UI.

Steff:
What have changed form 335a to 4 and how to get it running. Wasent there a protection in 4. I never have  looked at 4 ;)

Mr.Patcher:
I have a problem... kick of the game with an error when I use the patch... What am I doing wrong?
I have access_violation error =

Mjollna:
As far as file format is concerned, I've written all I know on the wiki.
The converter mostly does this :


There's MCRF to rewrite (split into 2), MHDR and MCNK headers to adapt. The rest is mostly chunk copy. I still don't know what tex1 does, maybe in MoP we'll see that better.
If you have questions on this I can try to answer from what I know/guess.

If you're talking about implementing 4.x saving in Noggit, imho first there's mh2o to handle, as well as mccv (which would make mclv also almost done) and compressed mcal. They're heavily used in Cata format, so just splitting file saving into 3 without taking LK and 4.x features into account is probably piling up more problems for later. But it's just my view on the matter <!-- s:) -->:)<!-- s:) -->
I'll gladly help on this if I have the skill for it... (could be very long, but I'd definitely love to).

I'm a member (and moderator actually) of another Wow related community, where the rule is "we don't give any tips for live realms", so it's kinda conflicting with making a tutorial on how to get patches to work on 4.x.

So I'm totally ok to help as much as I can concerning formats, conversion and all this, but on how to circumvent 4.x protections, I can't break the promise I've made to this other community.
