Lich king ADTs in cataclysm?

<< < (4/7) > >>

-Dave:
SO! After a long break during which I've had a lot going on in my life, I'm getting back into this whole level design thing. Put together something basic and went to test it out ingame to no avail. Here's exactly what I did.

Did a bunch of stuff in Noggit > Used Mjollna's converter with the world building option > Used Ladik's MPQ Edit to pack the resulting ADTs into wow-update-16325.MPQ/world/maps/azeroth > Put said MPQ in Data folder after patching WoW with the link Mjollna provided above.

Game client still loads the default ADT instead of the modified one. Any thoughts? :3

Mjollna:
There's most likely a problem in the path/filenames you've given.

I'm not sure I get the part where you mention : "wow-update-16325.MPQ/world/maps/azeroth".

And you probably don't even have to use mpq anyway : viewtopic.php?f=26&t=1828

-Dave:
I'll take a look at that thread and see if it will work with the 4.0.6 client, as for now however - what I meant by 'wow-update-16325.MPQ/world/maps/azeroth' was this:
The MPQ name is wow-update-16325.MPQ
The treepath WITHIN the MPQ is /World/maps/Azeroth/Azeroth_xx_xx blah blah. - exactly the same as it is in World.MPQ

fean:
Do you have removed patch limitation number with the patcher Mjollnà has linked ?

Because, on 4.3.4 live servers, the maximum patch is 15595 if I'm not mistaken. If you didn't remove the limitation, the client won't load a patch number that is superior.

/Edit
The name of the patch doesn't seem to be good with what's inside your mpq.
If your MPQ is named "wow-update-xxxxx.mpq", your world/maps folder has to be in a folder base (base/world/maps)
If your MPQ is named "wow-update-base-xxxxx.mpq" you don't need to have a "base" folder.

-Dave:
Yes, I did patch wow - that's a very interesting comment with the base folder though. I'll try renaming the MPQ and see if it does anything. I was using World.MPQ as an example, I hadn't looked in great detail inside the update MPQs yet. Thanks for that!

/E: Renamed to wow-update-base-15051.MPQ - files in World/Maps/Azeroth - still no luck ingame. :/ Any other ideas?
