[Guide] Character to Creature

[gregzoid2]

I tried this guide twice, followed every step perfectly, NO errors at all. Also followed SiNx's guide twice for race swapping (basically the same as this but with different models) and ingame NOTHING changes, do i need a model fix or something? my file patch-4.MPQ is in my data folder, and it has DBFilesClient\CreatureDisplayInfo.dbc in it. I double checked the CreatureDisplayInfo and ID 57 field 1 is changed into 2853 (vrykul female) + the 3 fields for the skins are also changed to the vrykulfemale skins. Need help

Upload your dbc file here and let me have a look.

Create a directory "DBFilesClient" (case sensitive) and put the CreatureDisplayInfo.dbc in it. Then create the .MPQ . Worked for me (although I used patch-3.MPQ for extracting the .dbc files , patch 3.3.3a) I had an error with MW so I used MPQ editor instead.

Would swapping GnM > Tuskarr be done differently? my interpretation is that the characters you swap like this wont be interactive with gear changes. would swapping to tuskarr's be a big job?
cheers for any help

I'm having the exact same problem. I'm no moron, I know I'm doing this right. I've edited for years. Yet I just can't seem to get it to change. All my other model swaps work perfectly :/

[Sebastian222]

can this be used for moonkin -> other stuff ?
I downloaded some already made Moonkin -> Alexstrasza but apparetnly something went reeeaally wrong because a lot of other models in game just became cubes ?_?

I don't get it ,in the very end I rename my dbc file to DBFilesClient\CreatureDisplayInfo.dbc and click ok... then what? I don't have to "fuse" that file with the MPQ file I did right before?

I can't make it work the last file I create (DBFilesClient\CreatureDisplayInfo.dbc) is not inside Patch-7.MPQ (in my case it's 7)

And yea, Im not exactly sure where the border between a resurrection, and just another comment is, but I'm pretty sure that its probably somewhere around half a year.
