[WIP/Area Change]Hellfire Peninsula more lifely!

[Fivestarr]

Hello guys, like many people, I hate Hellfire Peninsula look so flat and dry.
Inspired by Xel, I decided to turn it to something more lifely and greeny, but I want something in Nagrand / Draenor style.
Everything goes fine except model change, when I swap stones with trees, there is a little problem, trees got leaves but not trunks and also they are too big (screens bellow)
I don't know where or how to fix it, so I'm asking you guys. Thanks for hints!

Screens:









Changes Include:
Tileset Swaps
Model Swaps
World Map Remake
Skybox Change

...more screens will be soon

Did you swap models via taliis or did you just do the ole' "Lazy rename .m2 file" way?

[Fivestarr]

Second option is right. I renamed it 'cuz I saw some posts where people say Taliis screwed up their files

[MadameGrip]

taliis only screws up files if you fail :P bum basta xD

[Fivestarr]

Ok thanks, I will try do it in Taliis, but don't know how to

[MadameGrip]

Just keep experimenting

It seems like you didn't "swap and rename" all the .skin files, you need to do the same for them as you do for the m2s.
If this doesn't solve the problem try a different model.

I suggest you to change that skybox as it doesn't really match with the green ground. Also pics from daytime would look better (I believe).
Good job this far

to reiterate about the skybox, please read up on color theory and what contrasting, analogous, colors etc are.

I wanted something in Nagrand style, so I used that skybox, and texturing in Hellfire is different than in Nagrand so textures are from more locations, but everything is still in work, that's not the final version.
