[QUESTION] Troubles with Cata->Wotlk import...
« on: February 07, 2012, 10:34:53 pm »
Hello there, I´m new to this site and new to "advanced moding". Well, whats my problem? Let me explain...

Fisrt of all - I´m not programmer and dont have proper education for "advanced stuff", im just creative self-learner (experiment-error style). Well, and english is not my mother-language, so, please forgive me some misspelling/gramatic flaws etc.
That was about me. Now, about my project - and problems.

I´m working on (Czech) 3.3.5a private RP server (estimated population very low - best views - +/- 50 people) and our goal is "Our own world, our own lore, our own story"...so we are making custom maps, dbc editing and all this stuff.

Recently, i had an idea - bring some Cata (mainly Gilnean and Wildhammer) objects into our MPQs and create something...yet unseen. So iI started to doing research, crawlin trough forums like this one...and experimenting, ofcourse.

WHAT I USED
- textures from Cata 4.0.6
- models from Cata Alpha

WHAT I MANAGED
- ...to get gilnean structures to both - in-Noggit and in-game flawlessly
- ...to get gilnean/worgen M2s dysplaying flawlessly in Modelviewer and Noggit, but ingame they are not visible...

So...I grabbed some models (namely - worgen_stable_01.m2) and punched them through "Py script for converting Cata alpha models"...and what happened? In-mviewer it looks ok (like this), in noggit it looks ok...ingame it looks...like that:
[spoiler:2cqpcul2][/spoiler:2cqpcul2]

Adn the question is - how can i make it work right? Is there some way how to fix load of Cata M2s to WOTLK format in relatively easy way? (=something what could trained monkey like myself execute without greater problems / necessity to understand "how it works")

Thanks for reading this (if you did) and patience...i´ll by gratefull for any advice.

ahm im also new in this pyton stuff and Tryed to install it with the scripts... i think i got it but dont know...it right ^^ (a little list wich stuff to install first wich last i mean so many stuff x_X would be really nice too for others and me if i get it wrong at least -.- )  

My question is what did i have to do with the m2 ?

i opened at time the catatowotlk.py and type in the File  (PVortex1.m2)  did renamed it already but it just closed the window and nothing happens ._.

Did i make something wrong ? I culd also open the Vortex.m2 with this startme.py but dont know what to do there ^^ *argh*

Have the problem at time that the objekt is showing up in Viewer and Noggit perfekt but then ingame not :/
