The Character to Character swap doesnt work :yuck:

[lord nikon]

my daggers still look like perdition blade, model editing nerfed my ass...

[jaeden23]

Ur changes still seem to work because of WDB cache..
WDB is a way of modelchanging that still does work. I know what the client does to avoid any change but if u can get around, there is still warden that will derect u since latest patch.
At the end alot of thing that were possible with modelchanging are nerfed.

Ok some things do work, we know that. But DBCing (What the big boys like to deal with) is done. ADT swaping is done, and i imagine so is WMO. Lots of things are done for good.

Awwwwwwwwwwwww, this sucks so hard, why did blizzard take away the thing i love the most in WoW? damnit, the only thing i love about wow :O
I hope some1 finds a way to work around the sig file : /

[Naxxsuxass]

:weepy: :gtfo2: :cussing::banghead: ARGH! i just learnt how to do model editing and now wtf?!

[e-gasm]

So, yeah, just confirming model editing IS ****ed, big time, blizzard dont only use the signature file to check everythings correct, NOo... they have to go one better, they check if the signature file ITSELF is correct, I ****ing hate blizzard... -_-

By the way they couldn't even do it without bugging some gear rofl

On my Nemesis Spaulders, the fire in the right shoudlers eye is burning downward.. lmao.. so ugly...

If you want to see what's nerfed, crack open patch.mpq and extract the signaturefile and open it in wordpad. There's alot to go through, so I'd use the find feature if your looking for something specific...

There's a 4 billion M2s, 3 billion ADTs, and 2 billion WMOs in there... And all the DBCs a couple times... So yea... Guess they didn't put all of the models, but anything worth doing aside from the looks still works I guess...

Theoretically, couldn't you change the hex line to the desired file change to bypass the nerf?

EDIT: Tried to edit the signature file, and didn't work. Apparently, they use WoW.exe to check if the signature file is correct, and vise versa. Maybe if you could change the matching signature lines in the .m2 files themselves?

[e-gasm]

I thought of that, but I think wow.exe checks that the signaturefile is correct, and the signaturefile checks if the m2's are correct =\

Whats nerfed for you. whats not. What can we get to work again, what cant we?

Me? I'm only interested in 1 model edit...LootFX.m2. I cant imagine how lvling to 70 is going to be with the default....
