Title: [WoD] [QUESTION] Legion -> WoD Models
Post by: SachikoMaeda on October 19, 2016, 01:51:56 am
So I've been working on trying to devise some method for trying to make at least some Legion models on WoD for a private RP server I play on. I'm at a bit of a wall with it. I've gotten my hands on a working patch that fixes satyrs with the Legion models, so I tried to work off the general idea of it, but I can't find who made it to ask them.

After extracting the model information with CASC Viewer, I ran the m2 models through the Legion to Wod converter (http://modcraft.io/viewtopic.php?f=59&t=10806) and patched as I should, but it still displays the old models. Is there something I missed in this?

The highlighted folders are the ones I've received that work.

If u just put the "satyr2" file in your patch it would not found by wow.
Two methods.
First you rename the file to "satyr" and put it in the "satyr" folder same correct textures and so on.

Second you edit the creaturmodel.dbc and the creaturedisplay.dbc, that wow knows where the files are

Yep, it was a matter of not naming the files correctly. Now if only I had a way to get the Keeper's belt to work.

I'm not entirely sure where to edit. FileData.dbc? If so, I just make a line for the name of the .blp for the belt and the location of it?

Now this is a strange. Seems my client doesn't have a creaturedisplayinfo.db2. I'll have to poke some server devs for one, possibly.

Okay, I've gotten my hands on CreatureDisplayInfo.dbc. How can I get the entries added or modified to look up the new textures?

Skin 1 to 3, find model in creaturemodeldata for the right model id

Took me this long to realize the CreatureDisplayInfo I was given was from a Cataclysm client, not a WoD client. No wonder it wasn't working. If anyone manages to have a WoD CreatureDisplayInfo they could send, that'd be amazing.

Managed to get my hands on the right CreatureDisplayInfo.db2 and modified it as I should. The textures still aren't loading.

There should now three coulums with textur names and all right?
textur is in the same folder of the m2 file?
