[Gear swap] Arena Season 1/2/3 to Tier 1/2/3 (working 2.4.2)

[RyudoP]

Arena Season 1/2/3 to Tier 1/2/3 (working 2.4.2)

Original Idea by Slibu.
His version stopped working for me since last Tuesday's patch for some reason.. so I made a new one. Some things are slightly diffirent, but globally it's the same as Slibu's.

How to Install:

• Download the file 'itemcache.wdb' from one of the URLS at the bottom of the post.

• Browse to the following folder: "<World of warcraft folder>\cache\WDB\<language>".
  Where <World of Warcraft Folder> is usually "C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft" and <langauge> "enGB".

• Copy the itemcache.wdb file you donwloaded into this directory. It will ask if you want to overwrite it, select yes. If you want to undo the modification, you can just delete the itemcache.wdb file and wow will generate a new one on startup.

• Start WoW! (no modeledit fix required. Be aware that the change will NOT show at the login screen)

Found a bug or do you have suggestions?
There were quite some items that had to be changed, and i could have missed one, or edited one wrongly. If so, let me know by replying to this thread and i will update the itemcache as soon as possible. Also not every single item is changed because i could not get proper items to replace them with. If you have a suggestion feel free to make them

[GanjalfTheGreen]

[tridagerx]

awesome : ) will try now

doesn't work for me idk why
i used it without the mef

[Scarecr0w]

Great job - although I won't use it, but nice contributing - rep for you!

[slibu]

so thanks for continueing my work ^^
and what do you've done to make it work again? :P

Edit: try making the weapons like I've done it...the only weapons I didn't chaned was the 1h dmg maces from season 1... and I think S3 daggers should've been one hand: Kingfall offhand: Harbinger of Doom and multilator: Maexxas fang

btw I like your picture

greez

Very nice job for those who love pretbc, I'm not a really big fan of gearswaps tho unless it's just a recolor wich displays the model better, I really appreciate the work you did tho and nice presentation.

[Killer1992]

nice works great

[theKarn]

I put it into my enUS folder and start up WoW just to be disapointed

It still seems to be getting overwritten by the client. are you sure I don't need to start with an MEF?

[JoeBiden]

This doesnt work..
EDIT: No offence ofc.

[RyudoP]

hmm seems it works for some people, but for others it doesn't..
I suppose you have the same problem i had with Slibu's original version that stopped working for me since last patch.. I'm not sure what that problem is though, i just modified the itemcache again and it started working.. What i did notice though was that some items appeared red in atlas, meaning i had to query the server again to make them linkable. Maybe that has something to do with it?

Else i just don't know, sorry

[The_Joksta]

yea its cool

[[Blaze]]

Doesn't work for me Hmm... :\

Yeah i had the same problem with his as well in 2.4.1(when i tried it). Maybe I have to already have que'd all the items?

[dakaka]

Great work, one of the best model edits on the forum! but I wonder, can you make me a special one? Because I don't like Bloodfang, so can you make me a gear swap that would be like Season 2 on rogue to tier 1 (night slayer) ? if you do so, I would be the happiest girl in the world
