File Extractor - Warlords of Draenor

[zifron]

Hey Cromon, mind helping me ? I tried extracting twice now and still got same problem I do not get textures/skin files for new models maybe not all haven't checked but if I look in grommash folder there is only the M2 file ? how can I get the rest ? blp/skin ectect.

Thanks for the tool Cromon!

It's working great and I managed to get quite some M2s working in 3.3.5. However to do this I had to add the Skin and BLP files manually to the filelist. I've compiled them in some smaller filelist for those interested.

Download links:
Arakkoa Doodads They are NOT compatible with a 3.3.5 client, I'm unsure about Cataclysm or MoP, but to get them working for 3.3.5 they will have to be converted. See: Modcraft
Talador Doodads They are NOT compatible with a 3.3.5 client, I'm unsure about Cataclysm or MoP, but to get them working for 3.3.5 they will have to be converted. See: Modcraft
Tilesets (Ground Textures) These work in 3.3.5 natively, no need to go through any process to get them working. Just put them in an MPQ and they'll work. Compatible with Noggit aswell.

Edit: I've created list files for all static world doodads added in WoD. These include the .M2s, .Skins and .BLPs. These are not creature/player models.

Edit2: To give some credit where it's due, thanks to Cromon and TOM_RUS for getting it working and thanks to Alram (Modcraft IRC) for helping me out with the automated listfile generation of the .BLPs!

Filebeam - Beam up that File Scottie! my latest list file (439220 files)
Still missing a lot. If you have a file name that exists in WoD client, but not present in my listfile, please tell so we can maintain more complete listfile.

Standalone file name validator tool: simply enter file name to see if it's valid file name. Only checks file names for current WoW build (6.0.1.18125), local files (exe, dll etc) not included.

No. I'm using windows 8.

Edit : I've tried to put my files directly in C: and then it works. Thx for the program !

[ambugger]

Thanks for everything TOM_RUS!

So where do the files read from the Standalone reader? Tossing it within the beta folder, the data folder, even base of C: don't work. Thanks!

You literally have to run the game in order for the extractor to do anything. Run the game, then run the extractor, as it uses the api within the wow executable to pull the files out. Until someone completely reverse-engineers the CASC file format, we will not have an easy way to pull the files without hooking the game's functions.

Reader? Where did I say that? It's just a file name validator.

i cant think that there is anything faster than this. CTRL + F for the file that was last extracted, remove the lines before that, done.

I'm aware on how to search a file. Since the filelist is huge as hell (as in, there's a lot of lines), there technically 'isn't' a faster way. However, I do think there should be separate filelist files (or again, a way to start from where you left off) to access.

Derp, meant validator, apologies.

Ah, what you're missing isn't an M2 file. You're missing the BLP armor files.

Just add these to TOM's latest listfile:
creature\ogredraenor\ogre_draenorarmor_blue.blp
creature\ogredraenor\ogre_draenorarmor_orange.blp
creature\ogredraenor\ogre_draenorarmor_purple.blp
creature\ogredraenor\orge_helm_shoulders_blue.blp
creature\ogredraenor\orge_helm_shoulders_orange.blp

Your older WoW client can still read the files... You just have to start it with the new data files, then run the extractor and voilà.
