Hex Editing still working in latest patch

[nonono]

Hey all,

I followed the guide from somewhere in this forum about itemchanging through hex editor

I followed it as it should be, searched for the item I wanted, highlighted the last letter of the itemname, saw the 2 digits followed by 2 00's, then after this I had the 4 digits I wanted to replace, I replaced them through the item code / converter throughallakazahm / the url provided to convert the characters, replaced them from 1234 > 3412, I get red text in the editor, is that normal?

In this case I wanted Merciles Gladiators Spellblade > Thunderfury

also, they were lower case, i changed them to uppercase aswell, still get the default item when previewing in WoW

I am using itemcache and made a backup of original, no luck on the newly modified one tho, just the same item

Any suggestions?

They show up normal in Character Selection screen, the actual change will be seen in game after you enter the world/instance.
