Title: [RELEASE] Blood elf HD models from PTR converted to Cata
Post by: quillerk on January 24, 2015, 05:27:44 pm
Hello modcraft! The new blood elf models were released like yesterday and It seems like I can't extract them with casc exporter cause they are not in list file, maybe somebody can upload full CHARACTERSBloodElf  folder?  With all textures and anima provided. I am not asking for converted files, just the original WOD ones

Much appreciated, best regards, Quiller

Hello there,

Here you go:
BloodElf Folder (Mega) (https://mega.co.nz/#!09dVhTqI!Vn8Af1MSRn1MsYeKU-lmw-ml-t42QiM5jtcaAweeuc0)
BloodElf Folder (Dropbox) (https://www.dropbox.com/s/i356hctup86d43g/BloodElf.rar?dl=0)

These folders include both old and HD models from current PTR.

I guess a small note should be attached that converting some of the BLP's from the skins (I.E. BloodElfMaleSkin00_00_HD) is a bit wonky at the moment. BLPConverter will give an error when doing this and generate a ~8 byte file. This only happens to some of them.

Kind regards,
DJScias

Hello there,

I use an older version of CascView (http://www.zezula.net/en/casc/main.html) (latest one on site is bugged) together with just a personal listfile where I had added in the HD texture lines.

Kind regards,
DJScias

like Upper and Lower Facial Hair
"CharacterBloodElfFacialLowerHair00_00_HD.blp",5="CharacterBloodElfFacialUpperHair00_00_HD.blp"

and so on

I am having some trouble with re-texturing the neck. When  I am using blender, a small portion of the back neck is not linked with the rest of the head. I have tried to link the vertices in the uv editor together as they are only the last two rows but it hasn't worked all that great. Does anyone know a way to fix the uv mapping of the back neck?

looks like the area of the back of the neck  and the area under the llips overlap and share same UV island for BloodElfMale model...

Well, ok modcraft.
https://mega.co.nz/#!Cklm0QpS!arjlE5h5d ... JaR3qElT-Y (https://mega.co.nz/#!Cklm0QpS!arjlE5h5d1NVc7011vXIsRsuGS8jSRvVKJaR3qElT-Y" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

These are Blood Elf models
extracted from  6.1 PTR client
and converted to 4.3.4 Cataclysm format (If you want Lich King version use CatatoLK converter
you can find one on modcraft)

-CharSections.dbc file patch included - just apply patch to your CharSections.dbc via MyDbcEditor
-Some Hairstyles missing ( due to Vertex count bla bla bla - you should already know why)
-Some issues with UV seams around the neck of Blood Elf Male ( did this late night so might have been a bit
lazy to fix, though the seam is covered by hairstyles and not seen)
-You will have to do some additional DBC edits like CreatureDisplayInfo.DBC etc
i can't provide them because i use separate models for PC and NPC characters so NPCs use old model



Extracted by DJScias
Converted by quillerk

for modcraft
Merry Leeching,
Best Regards,
quillerk.

On PTR the male models have glitches when dancing and some other small ones, just a heads up to those who plan on using this.

Here you have the High Elves of WoD I did thanks to BloodElf of Quillerk, which also come included to 4.3.4 (Use CatatoLKM2.exe to turn 3.3.5). Hope you like
https://mega.co.nz/#!xdlg2ApB!U9GKqk8Gy ... 1iufwAy2Ic (https://mega.co.nz/#!xdlg2ApB!U9GKqk8GyBvOmZ7cfC6uL0d2SPxJ7-uXN1iufwAy2Ic" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

Does anyone know how to fix hairstyles all races of WoD? They only have half the hairstyles or beards most races.
If anyone has the hairstyles and beards of all races character of WoD or Draenei / Renegade u Equip Ogre WoD for Cata 4.3.4 with textures and models I give whatever, I can give change mounts, models or other things, but only those races left me with no way to pass them.

Thanks to Quillerk, Konatchi, and others patches races to 4.3.4 :P
Sorry for my english

make HEs it's pretty easy if u have the Bloodelfs models.

in fact, u can took all the blp of faceupper and lower and used the DK textures, with the number 00-->09

But in the case to add the race to the interface:

Yes, but with that files, they can save time to do the Charsection and some lines of dbc files, so I shared it.
I'm looking at the .skin in 010Editor for hairstyles and beards, but I find the triangles and vertices needed.
If someone shares it, I appreciate it: P

That is precisely what I do not understand xD.
I open 010Editor the M2 and Skins and I've searched the StartTriangles and NTriangles not understand about submesh.

I opened the M2 in blender and 010editor like the .skin but can not find anything.
I am very basic Hex language, I can transfer models, make small changes and little else.
Thx

Edit: The BloodElf / High Elves that have put a bug in the Dks, when I have time I solve it.

Yes, if the models have them open in Blender and modify them and put them in Blender. Already in Wotlk getting done with the M2Mod3 but is not the same edit or uv-maping to edit the triangles that are not as done xD.

A good tutorial or Blender video tutorial could really for beginners.
Thanks also

i think that High Elves use a different Eyeglow :)
Maybe you can change them via changing the Texture type from hardcoded to DBC-coded, and make a proper  line to CharSect.DBC... i don't know i didn't try it myself/
Title: Re: [RELEASE] Blood elf HD models from PTR converted to Cata
Post by: Rangorn on January 29, 2015, 10:13:59 am
It's an excellent idea

You can use the second string row in CharSections, and make the eyeglow an exta texture, like the tauren fur

The eyeglow it's just a texture. U can take the green and make it blue. It's very simple.

It means ALL of your blood elves will become Blue-eyed.
with DBC edit you get some customization
red eyes, purple eyes etc...

//offtopic lol! just got the Race Changer rank with this post.
