[QUESTION] How to use MoP/Cata Skyboxes
« on: February 25, 2014, 08:32:49 pm »
Hello Modcraft,
i have downloaded the 9GB Mop/Cata patch from Modcraft.
I already use the Wmos & M2s and it works fine, but now i want to use a skybox from MoP.
I found the skyboxes in Modelviewer but i have no idea how to find out the ID to use it in Light.dbc.
For my Zone i want to use "Costalisandskybox.m2"(i have no idea from which Expansion it is)
it looks like this:

Ive tried to found the ID in Map.dbc, light.dbc, lightskybox.dbc and areatable.dbc(FROM MOP PATCH) but i dont found it anywhere.
Have anyone a idea how to use the skyboxes?
Thanks for reading.

Try take mop/cata skybox.m2 and only SWAP for normal WotLK.m2

You'd better fill them into DBC. This way you won't loose any classic skyboxes.

You need to have a look at the light dbcs.

This tutorial won't most likely help him at first. You should also read some wiki information about the DBC structure to begin understanding it.
http://www.wowdev.wiki/index.php ... Skybox.dbc
You need to add new strings for these skyboxes in LightSkybox.dbc, then you can use Kets's tutorial.
