Modelchanges Sizes of Characters

[Pedros]

Wondering if it's normal that when you model change your character, from what I've noticed Gnome -> Undead, that the size of the Undead is quite an amount bigger than the original Undead model in WoW. Is there some way around this or to modify it, that might be listed in one of the posts here. It's kinda hard to read trough the load of posts here nowadays, but if anyone knows, it would be greatly appreciated.

Not really a question but a general remark if more noticed this and know a topic about it :O

There is a way I believe, but I'm not sure offhand

No questions here!

CreatureDisplayInfo.dbc holds information about model's sizes. give it a try.

5, Scale, Float, Default model scale if not set by server for that spawn. 1 is default model size.

you can edit the creaturedisplayinfo dbc. find out the id numbers used for whatever race&gender you want to fix (look in the charrace.dbc). then look that ID up in the creaturedisplayinfo dbc. one of the columns dictates size. (not sure off hand) you can try changing that but it might be overridden by the size listed in the charrace dbc. you could change that but it would effect both genders of that race. the first method if it worked would change only the race&gender you want. if it worked. But the more i think about it im pretty sure you would have to change the size listed in the charrace.dbc effecting both genders. if you are on a private server it might be dictated on the server side. I think on wowemu its in the class.scp.

If anyone could create a MPQ for me to use or even as an example pointing out what has been said in these replies, I would be really happy

I've noticed this with all gnome to random models. It seems they made the gnome race models a bigger scale, compared to others. Guess that's why we have such big heads and noses
