Since the old guide is a bit broken and kinda useless i decided to write my own guide for this.The things we need for this task are:
   * WoW Model Viewer any version
   * Photoshop editor
   * Tallis
   * Blp to Png converter

First we will start by opening WoW Model viewer and creating our creature
Go to Characters->The Pick the race you want for your own creature
Next thing we gonna do is add equipment to it or well we can set his appearance: skin, hair, facial features and so on.
In this example i have chosen worgen male.

And chose all equipments what do you want him/her to have.

Now before i export it I usually make a list and write displayids of the items i have chosen for his/her's equipment.
Next thing we need to do is to export a texture for our creature but before that write in a notepad displayids of the following items type: Shoulder,Cloak ,Weapons,Helm.
And Set them to none.


Now go to File->Export Model -> 3DS
and save it.You will see a .tga file open it in photoshop.Sometimes Model Viewer bugs when you export certain races but i have found a solution for it.

If you want to export or to create for example BloodElf but model viewer is not exporting it right. simple export any other race then search in bakednpctextures for a texture of already existing bloodelf and change heads! (Will explain this method later)
Then save it as .png


Now start Tallis and open CreatureDisplayInfo.dbc and CreatureDisplayInfoExtra.dbc
Those 2 we will need to edit.
In CreatureDisplayInfo.dbc you are interested only in 4 fields.
field #0 - DisplayId
field #1 - Modelid
field #2 - Soundid
field #3 - ExtraDisplayInfo

-In field1 you need to add exact modelid of your creature: If you have chosen Human for your base your modelid would be either 49 or 50 depending on the gender.
In my case i have chosen Worgens which are custom therefor my modelid is also custom.If you dont know what modelid is for your creature you can always find it out by going to CreatureModelData.dbc and first field represent your modeldid
So for my worgen modelid is 5005(male), 5006(female)
Moving on.
In field#2 i leave it blank and in filed#3 i put a unique number such as for example 21407.
And this is how should it look when you first edit CreatureDisplayInfo.dbc


Now lets start editing CreatureDisplayInfoExtra.dbc
But first to define fields:
field0 - id ( The number from field3 in CreatureDisplayInfo - in our example 21407)
field1 - race id of your creature in our example again it is my custom value and it is 26
field2 - gender 0 male , 1 female
filed3 - Skin Color
field4 - Face Type
field5 - Hair Type
field6 - Hair Style
filed7 - Beard Style
field8 - Helm (displayid)
field9 - Shoulder (displayid)
field10 - Shirt (displayid)
filed11 - Chest(displayid)
field12 - Belt (displayid)
field13 - Legs (displayid)
field14 - Boots( displayid)
filed15 - Rings (displayid)
field16 - Gloves (displayid)
field17 - Wrist (displayid)
field18 - Cape (displayid)
field19 - CanEquip ( 1 - if you do .morph in this creature you will be able to see all other of your equipments , or 0- for not)
field20 - Texturename

Now all these informations you can gain from Model Viewer.
Skin as you can see is 0
Face type  = 1
Gender = 0
Hair color = 3
Hair style = 1
facial feature = 4
Helm - 59184
Shoulder - 60505
Shirt - 0
Chest - 59128
Belt - 0
Legs - 0
Boots - 0
Braces - 0
Gloves - 39644
Wrist - 0
Cloak - 58988



Now save those .dbc files and close Tallis.
Now drag your saved .png files onto blp converter and convert it to .blp

Now it is time to patch it all.
Download Ladik MPQ
and create new patch
we will need first to create new folder call it DBFilesClient and put in there CreatureDisplayInfo.dbc and CreatureDisplayInfoExtra.dbc
Then Create another folder name it Textures-> Inside it create new folder name it BakedNpcTextures and in that folder place your converted .blp file.



Now On TC there are sometimes problems when you are creating new creatures especially with new models, keep that in mind you need to fill 2 tables creature_template and creature_model_data

Now place CreatureDisplayInfo.dbc and CreatureDisplayInfoExtra.dbc in your server dbc folder too and if you have done everything right your creature should appear fine

Recently i have been amazed with some of the Vehicles scripts in cataclysm and decided to port them.Now i have managed to port them correctly just with some extras.
Currently Goblin Hot Rod supports 1 seat, i have made it 3.
Now i dont know if anyone have experimented with Vehicles Seat UI indicator but i have tried and obviously for some reason it still doesn't work.
 
?

Currently for sometime now i have been working on project whose name is Exodus.Exodus is based on mythology , ancient mythology.Now i have managed to create map and i know how to get it into game.But the problem is it doesnt want to show it.

Ok so few days ago i have made this to work and available and now i will share with you.The complete process is easy and it shouldn't take you too much time, well it will take you if you have slow pc like mine for rendering videos.

Ok so lets start.The things we will need to edit to make this custom cinematics to work are following dbc files and yes core :
 FileData.dbc ,Movie.dbc, MovieFileData.dbc MovieVariations.dbc and CharacterHandler.cpp (on some cores ) + Extended Script or just change packet

Now i keep using Taliis for this kind of job so i would suggestion you too to use it.Open all dbc into it and have targeted FileData.dbc
As you can see there are 3 columns
0: Id -> which point to third column in MovieVariation.dbc
1: Name of the avi
2: Expansion flags if we can say like that
Now edit it and insert your own .avi informations
Like me
id for 1 higher
name as you can see it is Preview.avi
and in third column leave it as 14.


Now open Movie.dbc
first column is id of your movie, pick any number i have 20 and 21
second column is full path to your movie *Notice you can store it anywhere as long you include it into patch*
third column volume of the movie  i guess? for each record is 100 so i have left that at 100



Now open MovieVariation.dbc
As you can see there are 3 columns but what do they mean? o.O
first is random number pic any number that you want
second column is ID-(First Column of Movie.dbc)
and last says if movieid for moviefiledata-> which points to resolutions and location of the movie.Put here 1 higher number or two.



Now last Open MovieFileData.dbc
 Here we have 2 columns
First Represent ID ->(MovieVariation.dbc column 3)
second resolution of the movie it self 800 or 1024 so if your video is rendered in 800x600 then put it 800 if it is 1024x720 then put 1024.



Now we have finished editing of dbc files, but how we are going to see that movie in game? For that we need first to remove Cinematic Sequence check in core.For this most cores have this implemented in CharaterHandler.cpp
so go there and search for something like this
if(plr->m_FirstLogin or  search for SMSG_TRIGGER_CINEMATIC

For TrinityCore replace this in CharacterHandler.cpp
   //Show cinematic at the first time that player login
    if (!pCurrChar->getCinematic())
    {
        pCurrChar->setCinematic(1);

        if (ChrClassesEntry const* cEntry = sChrClassesStore.LookupEntry(pCurrChar->getClass()))
        {
            if (cEntry->CinematicSequence)
                pCurrChar->SendCinematicStart(cEntry->CinematicSequence);
            else if (ChrRacesEntry const* rEntry = sChrRacesStore.LookupEntry(pCurrChar->getRace()))
                pCurrChar->SendCinematicStart(rEntry->CinematicSequence);

            // send new char string if not empty
            if (!sWorld.GetNewCharString().empty())
                chH.PSendSysMessage(sWorld.GetNewCharString().c_str());
        }
    }

with this
if (!pCurrChar->getCinematic())
            pCurrChar->setCinematic(1);

Then search for  if (pCurrChar->HasAtLoginFlag(AT_LOGIN_FIRST))
        pCurrChar->RemoveAtLoginFlag(AT_LOGIN_FIRST);and replace it with this

if (pCurrChar->HasAtLoginFlag(AT_LOGIN_FIRST))
    {
        pCurrChar->SendMovieStart(put here id of your movie or any other movie in wow :D);
        pCurrChar->RemoveAtLoginFlag(AT_LOGIN_FIRST);
    }
And Also for Trinity and MaNGOS you will need to remove cinematic.cpp from project and from scriptloader

Now for Arcemu and ascent based emulators you will only need to do one thing
go to CharacterHandler.cpp and search for
if(plr->m_FirstLogin)
{
uint32 introid = plr->info->introid;

OutPacket(SMSG_TRIGGER_CINEMATIC, 4, &introid);

and replace it with this
if(plr->m_FirstLogin)
{
/*uint32 introid = plr->info->introid;

OutPacket(SMSG_TRIGGER_CINEMATIC, 4, &introid);*/

Now we will create a one easy script just to send a SMSG_TRIGGER_MOVIE packet and using hook it will trigger it on character creation Dont forget also to put all cinematic sequences in db as 1
so here is a little command for that too

Update playercreateinfo set introid =1;
Now for Script you can use this
#include "StdAfx.h"
#include "Setup.h"

void OnEnterWorld(Player* pPlayer) //when player enters zone
{
    uint32 movieid = 20;
pPlayer->GetSession()->OutPacket(SMSG_TRIGGER_MOVIE, 4, &movieid);

}

void SetupOnEnter(ScriptMgr * mgr)
{
mgr->register_hook(SERVER_HOOK_EVENT_ON_FIRST_ENTER_WORLD, OnEnterWorld);
}

Add it and compile it inside the core

And after all of this you should have something like this just your video playing in game

Some people are having troubles getting right codec for video.In that case i will add additional information how to convert it.
First download newest ffddshow and xvid codec pack.Then download total video converter.I can not post here a tpb link but i am sure you can find it
Then start it and drag your video on it, or press on new task.


Then once you have selected it select a format you want to convert in.In our case avi, using XVID AVI.


Then press on advanced and go to profile ->settings
Then go to Video Option and make sure xvid is selected for codec


And after that press ok, apply all settings and press convert Now. Wait until it is finished and you are done
Make sure it is in right location
Interface/Cinematics/yourvideoname.avi


Oh Dont worry i havent forgot about rendering and using proper codec for this video. For your video to be played in wow you will need to convert it using xvid codec.Now idk too much what program to use but i have used Total Video Converted and it worked fine as you can see.Dont forget to install lastest codec packs from ffddshow and just in case install xvid codec too
