I wanted to check out T8 on my char on live, so I decided to work on a swap. Figured I'd start with the helm/shoulders first. The models I'm replacing are T2. I made all the changes in the .mpq and loaded up.
As you can see in the image, my colorization is somehow messed up in-game. The left side is the mmo-c preview. The right side is my swap. I will include my .mpq file and hopefully someone can explain to me why it's screwed up.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and guess that it's possibly related to the fact that the newer model has .m2, .skin and .blp formats involved while the T2 I chose to replace is simply blp/m2? Any foresight that someone could provide would be great.
