Step 1.

Go into your World of Warcraft CATACLYSM BETA FOLDER!
Then go into the Data folder.


Copy the 'common-2.MPQ' file and 'common.MPQ' rename them to 'patch-6.MPQ'
AND 'patch-7.MPQ' (CAPITALIZED MPQ IS NEEDED)


Step 2.

Copy it to your WOW RETAIL data folder.



Step 3.
???




Step 4.

Enjoy !
Remember this is a bit buggy, i havent gotten any wowerrors yet but we are missing ALOT of textures.


Oh and, STAY AWAY FROM WATER! INSTANT DISCONNECT!!!

You can get a lot of the missing textures by also copying common.mpq and probably common-3.mpq.

EDIT: BTW, DO NOT use this on a main account! Warden hashes certain of the map files, and when it sees you have changed those it won't be happy.

common-3 got m2s with new format so it won't work.

Aha, then not common-3. That's why I said "probably" - I didn't test copying that one.
