Problem with Weapon Swap! Help !

[Tekitha]

Hey people out there!

First of all, sorry 4 my broken school english!


When i would change my Weapon i have a graphic problem...

I know how to change it ( without GlitchysMES )...

Item\ObjectComponents\WEAPON\Axe_2H_Northrend_D_01.m2
Item\ObjectComponents\WEAPON\Axe_2H_Northrend_D_01.blp
are the weapon im using...

want to change in.. dont know..maybe in "sword_2h_sunwell_d_01.m2"


create folder "item" -> "Objextcomponents" -> "Weapon" switch the "sword_2h_sunwell_d_01.m2" in the folder, which i extracted from Warcraftstudios...renamed it to "Axe_2H_Northrend_D_01" ....creat MPQ Archiv...import folder....blabla....

But when i log in...it looks terrible...graphic bugs.....

what is my problem?

I know I use to always use Hex workshops before Glitchys Mes, so as far as the swapping goes with the .m2 files I am not to sure. But it usually came out clean with changing the code in Hex, which i'm sure you know but.

I think, your problem is that u try to change it the wrong way^^
Read this guide:
http://www.mmowned.com/forums/model-...-changing.html

it's exellent and very easy to understand.
I'm changing my models also as shown in the guide.

If u have any requests concerning this, just ask me.

Wenn du Deutscher bist, kannste mich auch auf Deutsch fragen :P

so far

doenst work, the patch changed something in the itemcache and i cant figure out how to solve it..

[sakyra]

no, nothing has changed. u just have to edit your new, patched itemcache.wdb another time; no replacement.
everything should work well then and u can still use the guide posted by me above.

Hm, does the model seem to have random spikes poking out everywhere?
This happens when you mess up the skin, or so I've guessed after seeing this in past model edits I've done.
Try remaking the patch with your original files except this time:

1. Extract the .skin file(s) of the sunwell sword. likely named something like "sword_2h_sunwell_d_0100.skin" and "sword_2h_sunwell_d_0100.skin".
2. Copy the treepath of the .skin file(s) for the northrend axe, likely "Axe_2H_Northrend_D_0100.skin".
3. Using MWCS, insert the sunwell sword .skin files with the corresponding treepath of the northred axe .skin files.

If the Northrend axe only has one .skin file, replace it with the sunwell weapon .skin file with the same number (00 or 01). And vice versa.

If this doesn't help, you can just do an itemcache swap, or I can make you an MPQ real quick.
