    [Help]Overwritten original patch.MPQ data

    So being the idiot I am, I totally forgot the rule: remove all model edits from your data folder before patching WoW.

    So I was using the following model edit:
    http://www.mmowned.com/forums/simple...red-drake.html

    And now it's written permanently into my data. Could someone tell me which patch-#.MPQ file(s) I need to replace and the easiest way to go about doing that.

    I would like to think re-installing wow is a last resort.

    Edit: Before someone says use Repair.exe, I play on a Mac so that's not an option.

    you mean downgrading?.... on a mac, with no repair.exe .... humm... really good question. but im pretty sure your 'overwritting' stuff are lost. That remember me a Rule that no one should forget (and i forget it one time too): Always Backup. Last week one of my Mpq got corrupted, dont ask how, i dont know, i redone everything that was on this damn mpq. for you little problem I think you should re-install in my opinion.

    Delete the data folder and start again :P
    Not like you'll lose your UI or anything, and you should have all the patch data saved from previous install / update, so it won't take long.

    Well, heres an idea, why not have someone upload a fresh patch.mpq thats updated, and you can download it from there. It's a few GB but hey, it might work.
    [e] try checking your patch.mpq
    The DRAKEMOUNT.m2 and .skin and .blp's might be in there sooo if it is, i'll try to upload my patch.mpq file.

    i have done some mount swaps and i'd say you should check the patch-enGB.MPQ (or patch-enBG 2) cuz normaly you modifie the dbc from this one.
