[Question] Model Swap sound RidingNetherRay to RocketMount

[amuklc]

Hello,
New to model editing here and its pretty neat so far. I wanted to change the model of my Riding Nether Ray to the Rocket Mount. I got the Rocket working in game and its way cool, but the sound is for the Nether Ray still. So I went to work trying to change those as well. When I started looking for where the paths were for the Nether Ray sounds, I didn’t find them in the Data MPQs. Maybe I’m too tired and missed it, but anyway I pressed on. Going with what looks like the normal layout for files, I assumed sound files for RidingNetherRay were going to be like, Sound\Creature\RidingNetherRay\RidingNetherRayFly.wav ect...

So I extracted all the RocketMount sounds, changed their names to RidingNetherRay, made the MPQ and added them in with the pathing I thought it was going to be.


It didn’t work. Could I get a point in the right direction for where the sound files for the RidingNetherRay are at if different, or any other advice to help me finish this Model Swap?

Thank you
Amuk

No feedback still? Do people not normally swap the sounds when they do their mounts?

[amuklc]

sigh. No kind of response at all.

I guess that the sounds you found weren't the right ones, or maybe you just did the edit wrong...

I would guess the sounds weren't the right ones too since I was guessing when replacing them. I still have not been able to find the sounds for the RidingNetherRay in the MPQs. I have not really been able to find sounds or models on the majority of the mounts. Were they done differently for most of them and then patched into the game in a different way on the ones I have found? I have seen the Rocket, netherdrake and talbuk in MPQs. Probably a few others too, but I know I have not been able to find several.

As I was starting to figure out how to swap for my mount I was lucky and found this link where it was done already. I dropped it in place to get the mount swapped.

Here is what I made trying to swap the sounds following the Sound Swap guide.
