[QUESTION] Changing race display ID

(1/2) > >>

mike1084:
Hi there! I've been modding my World of Warcraft for some time today now, and I've changed quite a bit.
Custom race descriptions, custom race names, custom class names and all that...
But what I can't figure, is how to change the display of a race.

For example: Changing the Draenei model into a Dwarf model.

I've been using the search function, and have read a tutorial on creating a NEW race, but this didn't really help.
Next to that I've been checking my Patch-enUS3.MPQ but couldn't really find anything that would help me.

I hope that someone can help me in my quest, because this would really help!

Might want 5 and 6.

Thanks for the help so far!

It's helped me quite a bit, I don't know why I looked over that option (as I'd already changed the ChrRaces.dbc for the race names...), but anyway thanks for the pointer. ;)

Problem that I'm facing now is:

The model has been changed, but I've got no clue as to how to change the skin as well. What I thought was that the model would have the skin data as well, but apparently that's not the case...

I've been looking around for a solution but can't really find any!
I hope you can help me!

Thanks in advance.

Thanks a lot, I'll try editing that.

Thanks a bunch for your help so far!


EDIT: These are a lot of files... if ever I'd like to make my Draenei represent a Dwarf, how on earth would I even do that?
I've been working with Mydbceditor, which can (luckily) replace any occurence of words into another (for example: changing DraeneiMale into DwarfMale wherever it can find it) but, there are different number of textures (if I'm correct) and having to add / duplicate rows would take ages.

Would you have any idea how to do this in a more convenient manner?
