Very nice, however you can extract files with MyWarcraftStudio as well so there's on need for MPQ Editor.

Dumb question. If i want just do recolor how do i exactly find the name of that weapon when they are named like Axe_2H_ZulGurub_D_01Green.blp ?

One method is checking in WoW Model Viewer, you pick the weapon you want to edit and once it is on your character, look at the Model ID. There's a guide around here someplace.. Anyways sweet guide Lex.

EDIT: nvm only get that on m2 files

I tried reskinning an arena flag, and that went fine, but when I got to the creating new mpq, I don't know which options I have to select/change, so could anyone help
me with this?
Kthx
and sorry for reviving semi old thread, but I guess new model editors like me could do with a read of it

I have been over this for at least 24 hours. Step by step, This isn't working for Version 4.0.3.A Is there an updated how to?

[Zaphry]

I think you need to create a folder named patch-6.MPQ nowadays or something...

[Manisher]

Edit: Theres no common.mpg in 4.0.3a :/ So can't do this )=
