WoWME Help Needed

[Tictacs00]

I strictly followed a guide and when i run WoWME.exe and press F8 before logging in, then i log in and nothing has changed... is there anyone who can help me with my problem?

Some mpq files are either named wrongly like patchc.MPQ and should be patch-c.MPQ (you always need the name to be patch-x.MPQ(x being any number or letter))
Some are like patch-c.mpq when they should be patch-c.MPQ (The MPQ needs to be capitals all the time.) Hope this helps you, best regards backabacka

Sigh, I don't know why I'm doing this, I guess I just like to copy-paste myself for everyone having problems. Anyways, just follow this simple little guide, it'll fix it. I promise.


1. IF YOUR MODEL EDITS AREN'T LOADING AND NOT WORKING, READ THIS:

You need to go to START > Control Panel > Folder Options > View (Up on the top, the tab) > and under "Advanced Settings" UNCHECK "Hide Extension for known file types". Now go to your data folder (or where ever you have your edits in) and you'll see that most likely the ones not working end in ".mpq" and NOT ".MPQ", so what you need to do is make the "mpq" CAPITALIZED to "MPQ".

AND/OR the "p" in "patch" isn't lower case, which is a must, the "p" HAS to be lower case (clarified in the example below):

Example:
This is WRONG: "Patch-x.mpq"
This is RIGHT: "patch-x.MPQ" (THIS IS EXACTLY HOW IT ---HAS--- TO BE. THE "p" IN "patch" NEEDS TO BE LOWER CASE AND "MPQ" NEEDS TO BE CAPITALIZED. ALSO, "x" CAN BE ANY LETTER a-z OR ANY NUMBER 4-9 (I think it's 4-9, I don't use numbers).


Then, after you change it, if you want you can go back and re-check "Hide Extension for known file types" so you don't accidentally screw something up.

It is about time I was able to find somebody who could help me with this problem I have been trying to figure out why it wouldn't work either and it turns out it was the .mpq parts of the files thanks for the help +rep
