Custom Item Icon Bug

[G4rry]

Well, I know this has probably been discussed before, but I search and didn't really find anything. All I found was a few threads with about 15 pages that didn't seem to mention it once.

To the point, as you've probably noticed most(if not all) server's custom items are bugged with the "?" icon. I heard the only way to fix this was to create an item cache with your custom items in it. Well, I'd like to know if there's any sites that help you do this, or if there's any tutorials.

As I've said, I've already searched but I've not found anything yet.

Basically what I'm asking is: Is there a known fix for the "?" custom item bug, and if there is can you point me in the right direction of how to fix it.

It's someway advanced fix for this, wouldn't recomend that.

Else, you can download a addon called "ArkInventory" this takes away the questionmark from the items, but the bug that you can't rightclick and equip, this will still remain. But you can see the display by using this addon on your client

Hmm, thanks. My direct problem was that I can't actually enchant my donation gear, and I guessed it what down to this. Do you have any idea if it's related?

As it's a questionmark, it doesn't know what item it is, and for what spot it's for, therefor it's unviable. But! Other players can enchant it by using trade window =P And sometimes enchanting the items yourself works

I've read a fix on ascentemu once, its pretty complicated, you have to change something in your Patch or something, then patch up your server.
I would find you to thread but ascentemu seem to have wiped there DB or something
its new again? wwwascentemu.com

hmm i just ignore it. Enchanting [if the formulas work] is good. But nethercleft etc wont.

QQ until the error is fixed.
itll only show the correct displayid in your character info sheet.

wonder if a macro would correctly equip gear considering you cant right click equip.

[TheZaronz]

Hmm, yeah i've seen some servers that have actually fixed.

[kevn93x]

Wish it'd be released. Its annoying for people with OCD.

screenshot or it didn't happen. if its not fixed on wowscape i doubt any other server fixed it.

[Ballwinkle]

its somthing in the DBC files. CLIENT SIDE

[Strupantwn]

arigity, this HAS been fixed, like I said, its complicated and has to do with patch changes.
This HAS been fixed in AscentEmu, if you want prove, go ask around in the new Forum they made.
Just because WoWScape is in the Top servers, doesn't mean they will have the latest updates and
all bug fixes, that same goes to Retail WoW, there are many more bugs in retail than you can even imagine.

[G4rry]

Isn't it a fix in your item cache? You need to add every single custom item in there, then make your players download it. Then they'll see the items properly.

Well, obviously fixing this is out of my league, thanks for the help anyway.

I was just going to make it so I could use a nethercleft xd.

Maybe I could get a WPE filter, so when I enchant nethercleft on retail gear, it'll actually enchant my custom legs?

This should be possible, right?
