[QUESTION] Helmet aura not working
« on: August 31, 2015, 06:47:02 pm »
Hey!
I made a custom spell identical to wowhead.com/spell=68779 , but the model (in SpellVisualEffectName.dbc) was the lich king helmet from Inico's release (viewtopic.php?f=7&t=644), but when I use the spell, nothing appears on my character's head.

I am doing this in order to have a burned Bolvar Fordragon (lavaman.m2) model with the helmet on it. I tried to use CreatureDisplayInfoExtra.dbc, but again, cant see the helmet.

If you can help me with the spell, or suggest another way of achieving my goal, please do.

Did you make the DBC's yourself or use some sort of spell editor, if you are doing it by yourself, theres a hidden dbc that's referenced backwards that you need for the spell to work.

Or you could always edit the model:




Tip: Disable the particles before parsing back to m2, or it will fail because of the new verts. Then particleclone them back on.

Omfg, cata spell dbcs system is SO annoying!

I looked through this table and the only link to other tables is in column 22 (id from Spell.dbc). How exactly is this SpellEffect used?

It's just required for the spell to work, its probably why your spell isn't doing anything if you haven't edited that one too.
