Required files:

I hope you learned from watching and like always if you need any further assistance let me know by posting below. :ugeek:
P.S
This works for most expansions.
-
Thank you for this. Been struggling to figure out how "GS_Lichking" was defined, and I didn't even think about looking in the DBC.

No problem, I like helping others. :ugeek:

This doesn't work with Mists of Pandaria. Though I'm sure there's a variation of it. Trying to figure that out.

You're right my bad I will make another tutorial for MoP.
Edit: Would you be interested on how to change clicking sounds, while I'm at it?
-
I could also make a tutorial on how to change game intro cinematic.

Did a quick search. It looks rather complicated. There seems to be dozens of different sounds for each type of button. Though I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to edit them, it would just be time consuming.

That would be interesting. A simple cinematic montage with custom music could be a nice touch.
-
Alright I should have a couple of tutorials up soon then.
-
Awesome! Thank ya :D

Figured this out for MoP. SoundEntries.dbc is different, so in order to set up the file path for your mp3 (or wav, whichever) you have to take the hexadecimal value from column 4 in the dbc file. Convert this value to decimal and it'll be your ID for FileData.dbc, which is where you'll write in your file path for your music.
In GlueParent.lua, find the section of the code that looks like the following:
--Music
EXPANSION_GLUE_MUSIC = {
TRIAL = "GS_Cataclysm",
[1] = "GS_Cataclysm",
[2] = "GS_Cataclysm",
[3] = "GS_Cataclysm",
[4] = "MUS_50_HeartofPandaria_MainTitle",
}Change the 4th one to whichever you put into your SoundEntries.dbc.
And there ya go! Feel free to make that video tutorial though, phantomx ^_^
-
I already made it :P I'm just working on the others want to upload all at once.
-
My wow.exe wasn't working... so I had to open it up in 010 and remove the checks...
-
Oh yeah. I didn't know you could use 010 to do that though. I use Olly Debug
Edit: When you added GlueParent.lua to your patch, did you get an error on the character create screen about SecureCapsule or whatever? It appears every time I have GlueParent in a patch, even if unedited.
-
I do not get that error I will upload my modded wow.exe and yea 010 is a very powerful tool.
I also just found out that starter edition accounts can make pandas lol.
-
I probably don't need your .exe :P Maybe you could send me your GlueParent?

Here you go Wow.exe patch 5.4.8 18414

Like I said I don't think that's gonna help me. And besides I tested yours and it doesn't look like you have the crack needed to actually be used on a private server. It instantly comes up saying you need a Blizzard Account.

I'm not using it on a private server, I'm on using it on live, and the "crack" should be disabled but I open it up in 010 again and check on a side note my interface files are extracted from live.
Where are you placing your custom patch?
-
Well of course they're extracted from live :P Where else would you get them? lol
And I'm sticking my patch right into my Data folder.
-
Fixed my issue. Just had to delete my AddOns folder.

I was going to but I never got around to doing it.

Please whenever you have a moment :) I thought it would be as easy as renaming the vanilla cinematic to the wotlk but it didn't work :(
