[Request] Everfrost Chip Model Swap

[Jaerin]

I think the problem right now is there isn't a working Model Editor for the new expansion. MWS crashes anytime you try to load the m2's. (Unless you delete the m2craft.dll) Also if you look at the models that mdss used they are already massive. The first one I think is the glowing trees in Crystal Song Forest. So there must be a dimension to the object that is making it a specific size regardless of the model.

Great work so far mdss.

BTW I've been looking around, but I can't seem to find a good tutorial to do what you did mdss. I've seen lots of tutorials on race swaps and such which seems largely automated, but not one that shows a custom replacement like this.

Thanks for the help

Exactly. Murmur would be tiny in comparison to the other models. I've tried to find where WoW saves the information on the scale of models for objects (like Hydross and some water elemental in Felwood use the same model but one is bigger than the other). Since I'm not so experienced in file formats used in WoW and their meaning my first guess was that it's somewhere in the dbc files. I used a dbc viewer and found some data records in several tables concerning Everfrost shards. But some rows in the table are "Unknown" and contain numbers. I'm not sure what they're used for.

You could also resize the m2 model. Just like ppilatee I've tried to use MES for that purpose but since MES is not developed anymore the resize tool doesn't work with 3.0. Apparently there are also converters for m2<->3ds around on the net but I'm not into cg so this isn't an option for me.

i cant seem to figure out how to swap the model to something bigger or just make the portal itself bigger

I extracted the exe into the WoW folder, and started fine, but no .dll loads when i press f8. Also where do I exactly extract it to you, as well as the everfost chip package. i extracted that into the data folder, is there something I am doing wrong? Thanks.

So whats actually your problem?
Does your wow crashes, when you come near to an everfrost chip or is none of the custom models working?

If you are looking for something like "yeah dude, your dll files are loaded" after hitting F8 on your login screen (like I mentioned before, I dont know if its still needed ^^), nothing like that will show up.

[ppilatee]

can anyone change those things in ragnarosses

Dark Portals are far larger, more obvious, and louder then Ragnaros.
