[Nevsky]

Is there anyone who already has Human male that looks like Night Elf Male?

I would appreciate if anyone had this skin

Thanks

[legshot]

Same as other can pm till 10 post:< So if some1 can fix helm for undead male from human male warbringer and destroyer helm

[Got3n]

Is there a fix for the heads? My NE->UD is working great but the head comes thru the helmet, is there a fix for this?

[Sabith]

How exactly do you do this? Where do you get the MPQ Master?

[Trae101]

I cant find Model or the correct Textures .mpq or the subfolder partaining to that in either common.mpq or patch.mpq

Okay, since this is a guide, I'm assuming it's for newbs, right? Well, a noob at model editing, like me, does not understand this guide. AT ALL.

k guys heres a guide on how to do a race to race model edit. Sadly i have not figured out why the helm thing always happens but o well.

Ok lets do this
\

1. Open up MPQ Master
   
   Okay, I read later in the post that you have to use MWS now, so I did.
   
2. Go to Model.MPQ
   
   Read later in the post that it's merged into common, so I opened common.
   
   
3. get the race you want changed to and Copy it into World of Warcraft\Data\YourRealRace\YourGender\(save here)
   
   Okay, easy enough. I'm assuming you have to manually make the folders because they don't exist in my WoW data folder.
   
   
4. open up texture.MPQ
   
   Okay, I opened up CHARACTER(not Character) in MWS assuming it was textures, and I'm probably right.
   
   
5. find the race you want changed to, not your real race, do not go into gender yet
   
   Uh, okay. Kind of weird, but I opened JUST the race.
   
   
6. extract all the files not in a gender to the file above that you saved the model into, BUT dont save it in the gender folder
   
   Okay. extract all the files NOT IN GENDER. When I do this and I open the folder, inside the folder is Female and Male. Is that right? Who knows, no one in this thread really helps ya! Now onto the step where I save the folder. "that you saved the model into, BUT dont save it in the gender folder" okay, very blurry and weird. Didn't I save the model file into gender, and you're telling me to save the textures in the file I saved model into, then later in the sentence, you're telling me NOT to save the file into gender. Whaaaat? Whatever, I'll just assume he meant save the file into the Data folder(which is probably wrong, but who knows! no one really helps ya!)
   
   
7. now go to the gender u want changed into
   
   Okay..
   
   
8. pull all of those files into the folder above, and save it actually in the gender's folder (with the model)
   
   The folder above... nice. I'll assume you mean my World of Warcraft/Data/YourRealRace/Your Gender. Not really clear enough there, buddy.
   
   
9. Open up Renamer, and rename the race (and gender if required)
   
   Wait, what? Renamer? What the hell is renamer? And what race? You mean the folders I made at the start? (World of Warcraft\Data\YourRealRace\YourGender). I'll just have to assume that's what you mean.
   
10. close renamer, and open up MyWarcraftStudio
    
    k. (not like I had renamer opened because I dunno wtf it is)
    
11. Make the Speech2.MPQ and put your file into the data folder and add the model (just like any other model change u have to add it like Character\Race\Gender)
    
    I have no idea what the hell you mean here. Make a speech2.mpq? What? How? What model?
    
    
12. Add all the files into your Speech2 using MPQ master
    
    What speech2 file?
    
    
13. and youre done!!!
    
    Oh, yippy! That helped a noob like me!

Thats all, and like i said above i have not figured out the helm prb, sry

I'm not trying to insult you. I'm just saying it's unreadable/not understandable by the general model editing noobs.

Late! Hope you revise the guide or at least help us!

I agree, this "guide" is very messy, and i dont understand how to do it..

[gr33ksoldi3r]

This guide is old.. If you look at the date. When I use to do Model Edits way back when you would have to use the Model.mpq but im pretty sure on a attempt to stop it blizzard squished the files together. Is what im guessin, but this guide is for sure really old.

[Patty]

argh! Sry fault .. but you are an idiot .. you say .. "you need the latest mws version" ... WHERE CAN WE GET IT?? .. Everyone asks it and nobody gives a link ... i tried to search MWS at google but i dont know the real name of the program .. so .. i dont know what i have to download ... so ... plx .. can someone give us a link where we can download the latest MWS version?:S

ok .. MWS = MyWarcraftStudios .. but what version is the latest version?:S

[kryptofyre]

nothing happens when i open common.mpq w/ mpqmaster

[shaman90]

[er_sheik]
