[RELEASE] Soldan's Workshop - Cata .M2 to WoTLK 3.3.5

[Soldan]

Hey Modcraft,

As I have mentioned a few times in the Shoutbox, I was going to start porting models and releasing some of them for all you of to use freely.

Summer has come, and I have some free time, so I thought that It would be a perfect time to start, don't you think?

I want to clarify that I will only release the models, and a screenshot proving that said model works ingame(3.3.5). I won't upload the needed DBCs to get them to work. That part, you will have to do yourself because some servers might have the same model ID that I've used in my dbcs, etc.

I will keep updating this post with newer models and screenshots, the newer models will be at the top of the post. I would finally like to add that I am accepting some "orders". Reply in a post, tell me the model you would like, and If I find some spare time, I'll upload it for you!

Without keeping you reading anymore, I present to you;

Hope you all enjoy!

Thanks for reading,
Soldan

[Morfium]

Yay, nice! Thank you.
Gonna test them when I get some time.
Although the druid cata treeform looks extremly ugly. But that's blizz's fault. ^^

[Ascathos]

Work extremely well, good work! Only issue is trying to get the different skin colors for the druid forms to work (dependant on the druid skin color), but that is a completely different issue Thanks for porting, hope to see more!

[Soldan]

Well, if you're desperate to fix that, you could make 4 different displayids, and have the npc choose one of the 4 at random...

It could be a temporal fix.

Soldan!

[detonatorss]

Soldan

[Morfium]

Omg you really ported Ysera, I love you! XD
I should be sleeping now.... But I think I'll implement her first. ^.^
Thanks! :>

Edit:
Works like a charm.
Only thing: You forgot the password on the archive. If that matters to you.
Thanks again for the model.

[Sirenesusa]

*.* omg Deathwing as Human and Ysera *.* now i have 4 of 5 aspects. only Nozdormu is missing
i hope you port him, tyrande and malfurion *.* that will be so awesome.

and sry for my bad english

[lawrytrix]

Could someone tell me how to implement them (and custom armor) that I can use them ingame?
Sry for my bad english and that f*cking nooby-question

Edit: I´ve put them into my custommap-patch in the characters folder. Now how I have to deal with them that I can spawn them or how to add me the custommarmor.

[Morfium]

It's pretty easy for npcs:
Just add them to your CreatureModelData.dbc and CreatureDisplayInfo.dbc with Taliis.
You basically only have to copy some entries and then change the model path and id. To add new Modelpaths you have to add new strings in Taliis.
Documentation on the dbc files are in the wiki.
The entry in the CreatureDisplayInfo is the id you can spawn morph into them. And also the id you have to use in your db to assign them to an npc/mob.

Edit:
They go in the creature folder unless you want to make them playable races btw. That's even true for shapeshifted forms. I don't think it makes a difference though. It's just how blizz handled it.

I'd suggest to use MyDBCEditor or a similar editior over Tallis. Tallis is great, but editing DBCs becomes quickly a pain. MyDBCEditor can be found in the resources area.


EDIT:
Soldan, I'd like to ask a request; would you kindly port the Goblins from Cata to WotLK ? I'd literally worship you, because I can not do it for some reason
