Instructions for Warmane team!!! WOD models to TBC!
Hi everyone!
Today I get the instruction from men who know about how to improve models for TBC client.
So, that's what he sayed to me:
1. There are instructions on the page https://github.com/Koward/jM2converter
2. Download the improved models mod for vanilla.
3. Open the MPQ file with Ladik's MPQ Editor.
4. Extract the m2 and blp files belonging to the model you want to convert.
5. Install Java.
6. Use jm2converter and convert the model from vanilla to tbc format following the instructions i linked earlier.
7. Add the converted models to a MPQ file following the correct path the game expects to find the models in. (Like "Creature\Cow\Cow.m2" for example.)
8. Name the new MPQ file "patch-5.MPQ" or something like that. It has to start with "patch-", then a number, and it must have the ".MPQ" extension in capital letters.
9. Place the new MPQ file in "World of Warcraft\Data".
10. Start the game with WoWMe. Watch the video to understand how to use it. You cannot use model edits in TBC without this program, because the client will not load any custom files.

P. S. I post this information here for Warmane team, because someday I want to download a TBC with HD models from this site (even some characters will have some little bugs like a haircut or smth not bigger, I ready to download it and play with this patch) And I've posted it here because I haven't skills to make it.. Bad, but my proffession only to be a designer and not a programmist.
Ohh, forget..
After I try to please him to do it, he tell me that:
- I do not have the time nor desire to convert the whole mod to TBC. You can try making a request for a particular model on ownedcore and maybe someone will do it for you http://www.ownedcore.com/forums/worl...ions-requests/
So I like to play on Warmane and want to play with good TBC client on a good TBC server.
Thank you if you will get this information from me and will make this for all players who like your server!
