Illidan's Weapon

[svloco]

I have a read a couple of guides about swapping weapons. But all of them require you to either have the weapon in your itemcatche.wdb or look up the item on allakhazam/goblin workshop. Now i am unable to find illidan's weapon using the above methods.

Can anyone kindly tell me where these are located in model files? or maybe do the edit for me please.

I am using lifeforce dirk.

Ok, there is more than just stupid cache editing, u can always really model swap. I suggest that u use my guide called Find Models By Name (something along those lines) thats under the guide sticky, and then once you have identified illidan's glaive's .m2s, then follow krazzee's sheild and weapons guide

WDB editing is for wimps.

Ill second that motion, takes away from real model editing.

[Asukama]

look up warglaive on allakhazam and choose the orange lettered one thats illidains weapons

And changing a couple numbers in WDB is different from copy/pasting filenames how? "wdb editing is for wimps" is about the dumbest comment I've ever heard and has no back, in many ways WDB editing is superior, you have a tunic you can make it into a robe np, and it takes a lot less time for the initial editing, you don't have to stress yourself over finding odd named armour in the MPQ's when you can just search the actual armour/weapon name on Ala and you're done.

svloco, you can find illidan's weapon in the 2.10 test realm mpqs. Just dowload that of the blizzard main page.

I found a model under CREATURE\IllidanGlaive\Creature_IllidansGlaive.M2
but am not sure if thats the item you are looking for

Okay then.

WDB editing means you have no customization level. You're not in control of the textures or models with it, you're changing the very top most level of visuals. With what guides have been posted and what people know, you can only change the display ID. There are much more advanced things to do with WDB, but people don't know what or how. I will say, yes, the higher levels of WDB is most certainly not for wimps, but everything else is. It's the easy way out, and you don't get much experience in standard/DBC, leaving you without the ability required to do anything beyond simple item and creature swaps. Now, this isn't a problem to those that only care simply for that, but even with what you know, it's still severely limiting next to the other ways.

However, it ultimately is just the third way of model changing, and if you like it the by all means, use and master it, it just can't hold a prayer to the others for most things.
