You need to export the model from MV to your Model Editor and then you need to delete or repositioning the geosets, after this you need to get the bones with animations from the new model to your 3.3.5 model.
I think thats the only way, but only from my sight ^^

Yes, we know that you can copy files. Sorry to disappoint you, but there is nothing special about it.

I find it odd that no one has mentioned that the extractor is able to extract a 'signature' file from the CASC files, of which lists a bunch more resources that aren't listed in the extractor's listfile. Maybe I'm wrong. The signature file appears to use a ";" to delimit the text contained in it, making it easy to pull out the embedded listfile.

The signature file does not contain a full file list. But yes, using that, the listfile from MoP, and extracting paths from the DBC's / file contents, you can get a listfile that is over 99% complete.

Hey, I used the BLTE code to extract the M2 files and it worked

I did add some source code that it automatically extracted all of the data.xxx file

The result was that all of the files had these GUIDs as filenames

Here is a piece of code that reads in the M2 file and extracts the name of the model and replaces the GUID of the name with its correct name.

For all of the m2 files ( about 45000 files) the process takes about 3 minutes ( give or take)

Code: [Select]

using System;
using System.IO;

namespace RenameM2Files
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            string[] files = Directory.GetFiles(@"D:Warlords Of Draenor\Extracted", "*.m2");

            int currentFile = 1;
            string nbrFiles =  files.Length.ToString();
            foreach (string file in files)
            {
                string newName = "";
                using (var br = new BinaryReader(File.OpenRead(file)))
                {
                    br.ReadBytes(8);
                    var nameLen = br.ReadUInt32();
                    var nameOff = br.ReadUInt32();

                    br.BaseStream.Seek(nameOff, SeekOrigin.Begin);

                    var name = br.ReadString((int)nameLen);

                    newName = name.Substring(0, name.Length - 1);
                    br.Close();
                }
               
                var info = new FileInfo(file);
                newName = info.Directory.FullName + "\" + newName + ".m2";
               
                if(!File.Exists(newName))
                    info.MoveTo(newName);
               
                if (File.Exists(file))
                    File.Delete(file);

                Console.WriteLine(currentFile.ToString() + " / " + nbrFiles);

                currentFile++;
            }
            Console.WriteLine("DONE");
            Console.ReadKey();

        }

       
    }
}

here is the extension method for the binaryReader:

Code: [Select]

using System;
using System.IO;


namespace System.IO
{
    public static class Extesions
    {
        public static string ReadString(this BinaryReader br, int nbrChars)
        {
            string ret = "";
            for (int i = 0; i < nbrChars; i++)
            {
                ret = string.Concat(ret, br.ReadChar());
                if (ret == "")
                    return null;
            }
            return ret;
        }
    }
}

Hope this can help someone

Anyone found out how to map the hash file names to a decent file name ?

I only succeeded in doing this for the m2 files, since the name of the file is actually in the file itself...

but for all the rest... I got nothing :/

Any help or idea is welcome

Anyone found out how to map the hash file names to a decent file name ?

There is none, it is a one-way function. The only possibility to reverse it is creating a lookup table. What helps most -- and how the most filenames were discovered -- is looking at patterns used in the client or references from DBCs etc. In the end, it is purely guessing, or brute-forcing.

It's rather easy getting the World M2s (Draenor) and WMOs (Again, Draenor) from just the Draenor ADTs. Iirc raid WMOs can be gathered from DBCs.

In the end, just things like

Code: [Select]

find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 strings | grep -i "blp|adt|wmo|m2|mdx|mdl|dbc|wdt|wdl|pm4|phys|skin|anim" | sed -e s,mdl,m2,g -e s,mdx,m2,g | xargs ./extract
for i in $(seq -f "%02g" 0 3); do find . -type f -iname "*m2" | sed -e s,.m2,$i.skin, | xargs extract; done
for i in $(seq -f "%02g" 0 500); do for j in $(seq -f "%02g" 0 5); do find . -type f -iname "*m2" | sed -e s,.m2,$i-$j.anim, | xargs extract; done; done
