[Question/Request] Red Drake to Azure Drake

[Marew]

Hello,

I have never modelchanged anything before and therefore I'm all new to this.
I have been searching for a "How to modeledit your mount guide", for quite some time now and have'nt found any, so I felt that if I want to do this, I'll have to ask about it myself.

I want to modelchange my Red Drake to the Azure Drake, to many of you this would be a piece of cake, but to me it is'nt.

Either I would like to request this mount modelchange from someone who knows how to do this, or I would like someone to tell me how to do it myself.

I would like the modelchange to be just like if I had the Azure Drake myself, but I belive the sound and animations would not be too hard, because I already have the Red Drake, which basicly uses the same model and sound.

Thank you in advance.

Best regards Marew

All you need to change, afaik, is the textures. Get MyWarCraftStudio, take a browse through the common*.MPQ files in your /Data/ folder and find the textures(.blp files) used by the Red and Azure drakes. Copy down the treepaths into a text file or something, then extract the Azure textures and repackage them with the Red treepaths/filenames into a new MPQ named patch-6.MPQ(capitalisation important) which then goes in your Data folder.

It's not too hard, just fiddle with MWCS and search the forums if you're having difficulties.
