Hello, MMOwned. I'm here today to teach the people who aren't aware of how to do it.
Here's What you'll learn today:
- How to make a custom item and make a patch for it, so it's usable in game by others. If they use the patch you make.
Let's Get started
----------------------------------- Downloads ------------------------------------
MyWarcraftStudio - For making the patch
CSV Editor - used to add items to DBC
DBCUtil - Used to convert .dbc to .dbc~csv to edit files
-------------------------------- Let's Get started ---------------------------------
Ok, once you have downloaded all of the files and installed them, Make a folder on the desktop and name it DBC Editing.
Open up the folder and add the following folders:
-DBFilesClient
-MyWarcraftStudio
-DBC Util
Open up the folder DBC Util and place the DBC Util.exe and the item.dbc, as well as CSV Editor files, into that folder. Once you've done this drag the item.dbc on to the DBC Util.exe application as showed in the picture.
this should open up a window of the DBCUtil application. It should look like this:
Once this completes, you should get a file called "Item.dbc.csv" in the folder.
Once you have the "Item.dbc.csv" file, drag it on to the CSV application, and it should open a window that looks like this:
Once this window is open, you should scroll to the bottom of the window, and right click. There should be something at the top (or near it) that says "Add Record" Click that and a window should open:
Once the "Add Record" window pops up, there should be 9 Fields. Fill in these fields to say the following:
Code:0- item id Column 1: Item entry id Column 2: Item Class Column 3: Item SubClass Column 4: Set to -1 Column 5: Quality of item Column 6: Display ID of item Column 7: Inventory ID Column 8: Set to 0 Column 9: Ignore this
for the flags field here are the flag id's
Here is what it should look like when it's done:Code:Ammo- 0 Head- 1 Neck- 2 Shoulder- 3 Shirt- 4 Chest- 5 Belt- 6 Legs- 7 Feet- 8 Wrist- 9 Gloves- 10 Fingerslot1- 11 Fingerslot2- 12 Trinketslot1- 13 Trinketslot2- 14 Back- 15 MainHandWep- 16 OffHandWep- 17 RangedWep- 18 Tabard- 19
Now you need to save this Ctrl+S and then drag it on top of the DBC Util application again. Once you've done this it'll replace the item.dbc file and then the DBC has a patch in it.
Now it's time to make the patch in mywarcraftstudio.
Open MWS (MyWarcragtStudio).
Before we do anything, open the DBFilesClient folder, and place the item.dbc file in there. Once you've done this close the folder and it'll look like this.
Go up to the top of MWS and hit the menu "Pack" or "P" and hit "Create MPQ Archive". Once you do this save the patch as "Patch-11.MPQ" save it where ever.
Once you've done this, go to the white margin on the left, -> Right Click -> Import Folder, then navigate to the DBFilesClient Folder. And click ok. Once you've done this you can go to "Pack" again and hit save. Once you've done this go to the patch, and place it in
"C:/Program Files/World of Warcraft/Data"
This should've successfully made a patch for your custom items, so you can use them in game. If you need any more help please make a replay and ask for some assistance. And I will get back to you when I can.
Thanks for reading and I hope it helped you in some way!
