[RELEASE] Dark Alliance - incomplete

[techniquees]

I had a few requests for this for machinima purposes. Since it's not fully finished due to lack of time, you may find it a bit dull in places if you're just using it for a zone mod. Also, since 2.4 something in my original edits DBC files is crashing WoW. I haven't had time to pick out and fix the culprit yet. If I get round to it, I will post it here. For now, here's the original link and a link to the DBC-less version.

If you happen to find the problem with the DBC's before I do, feel free to post it wherever you like. That goes for anyone who wants to continue to develop this their own way too.

Credit would be nice if you do re-release it. But I don't demand it. If it aids in developing your modding skills then thats credit in its own. Just try not taint the mod by adding any exploits to it

Noobish update: Obviously, since the patch, new mobs have been introduced, new factions have been introduced and new instance and world areas have been introduced. Hence all my DBC files besides lighting are corrupt. Clever me. slow on the uptake. I *may* decide to fix it up again, but probably not anytime soon.

For DIY reference the wyrmkin model ID is 1031

MORE EDITS
I guess my linking wasnt enough for reference so heres a direct quote.

This was adapted on my initial edit which can be found on the forum under Dark Stormwind. It's quite far from finished, I thought I'd show you guys since there's always a good idea or two thrown around in a thread. The general idea is that The Black Dragonflight have dominated the Human race and their homeland. Converting Elwynn forest into Lava-Worn Forest and Stormwind City into Dark Stormwind. While the Dragonflight have moved south, the Dark Iron have moved north into Ironforge and formed a pack with the Black Dragonflight.

I was thinking of adapting this into an instance for private server. Though for now it's just being created on Live in the Azeroth Map.

Current Sub Zones in Lava-Worn Forest -
Ruins of Goldshire

Current Sub Zones in Dark Stormwind -
Darkened Valley (Valley of heroes)
Wyrm District (Trade District)
Armory (Old Town)
Abandoned Square (Cathedral Square)
Dark Iron Square (Dwarven District)
The Pit - Unedited (The Park)
Mage Quarter - Unedited


Available Screenshots UPDATED!













Yes, Stormwind still has that bloody Specmap issue. Since Stormwinds textures don't seem to have _s.blp files I'm a little lost with how to deal with it.

Current Editing Used
- CreatureDisplayInfo.DBC Edited to Swap Guard models with Wyrmkin
- CreatureCache.WDB Edited to rename NPC's.
- Global texture swap on textures used in Stormwind (Considering editing the WMO directly to only affect the textures in Stormwind)
- ADT Painting and WMO swapping.
- Skybox swap
- AreaTable.dbc edited to rename Zones
- WMOAreaTable.dbc edited to rename stormwind & Stormwind Sub zones.
- Texture file editing. (Darkened Statues and guard textures)
- Edited Faction.dbc to rename Stormwind faction and description to fit scenario.
- Edited CharTitle.dbc renaming Sergeant rank to Dark Sergeant.
