hello guys, I was wondering how could I recolor the water from Wow ? Wich files I have to edit, maybe someone knows ?
I saw this link and the guy did this on a 2.4.3 server I'm curious because I work on a 2.4.3 version too
Thank for reading,
Namok

Thank for your rep, I found the Texture folder and the water BLP files, I'm a little bit curious about the light DBC files, and about the animation of the water. Or maybe it depends of the shaders from the client ?

heya,
water animation is a sequence of blp file.
This can be achieved through shader modification too, with the advantage of allowing deeper modifications (although it can necessite client changes if the shader need more data) i did this some time ago.
Until cataclysm
bls
content is just compiled shader bytecode, for directX take a look at
D3DDisassemble
, that gives u shader asm code, then use
D3DXAssembleShader
to recompile. Dont know for openGL. As far as i know windows version use directX while mac use openGL. So if u want to distribute it u should modify both shaders.
Result is really ugly, but it does work.

HI guys I'm back and ready to work on it. I did some tests to recolor the water, but I would like a realistic result as close as Cataclysm water. Maybe it could be insane or crazy but I think it is possible to have a better result, the thing is I don't understand how it works.
