Modelling and Animation / [QUESTION] Porting Hozen and Female Pandaren
« on: March 11, 2014, 04:17:49 am »
Hello Modcraft,
I'm trying port over the Mists of Pandaria Hozen and Female Pandaren models. Now, I know how to port models, wmos, adts, etc - this question is about those M2s that port over with bad appearances in game (please refer to the screenshots).
Multiple searches on the topic led to a conclusion that the 335a/434 clients have bad displays on M2s that have more geosets than the they can handle. It was suggested to try and remove some geosets. Well, I did that - but that creates a new problem. Deleting geosets does indeed clean up the in game display for some displayIDs, but for others it leaves them with missing body parts. For example, I was able to clean up the Female Pandaren Prisoner model, but when I try to spawn other female pandaren NPCs certain parts of their bodies are missing, some are missing the tail, others the arms, and others are missing the torso.
This leads me to the conclusion that there is more to converting those models than deleting geosets, or perhaps deleting geosets is not the way to go about it.
Is there anyone out there who has successfully ported those models and is willing to share how they did it? Or maybe you have a link to a tutorial somewhere? Elaboration is appreciated.
Thank you,
Epicurus
