[Guide] Armor / Weapon Changing

[Mekks]

i deleted my cache, figured it would rebuild when i logged in wow, it didnt... everything works fine but it didnt come back.

[Eightball]

My cache was made again when i logged in on a character..and then shut down WoW(not full cache as it only shows items u saw in game)

Also..i got it all working now and i can change everything BUT i have to save after every time i change the looks of an item. AND WoW must not be running on the background..so shut WoW down--> change what u want -->save --> log back in to see if it worked

That's the way i got it all working atm

I can't get this to work with some pvp items like Sentinel's Blade and the Highlander pieces... any advice

ah yeah that's a tricky thing. There's several versions of the pvp items: the lvl 18,28,38 etc. and they ALL got an own hexcode..so u might have changed the lvl 18 version instead of the 28. I'd say u scroll down the entire cache looking for the item and make them all look the way you want them to look

This was so easy, tyvm.

Wtf I go back to use the website again and it says internet explorer cant display it.

Hmm.. strange that it's down.

Are there any other places one can find the hex codes? Trying to walk a friend through changing his S2 shield to Bulwark of Azzinoth xD

1. Go to Allakhazam.com: World of Warcraft and find your item.
2. Go to the item page and click XML
3. Scroll down till you find Display ID
4. Copy the number into a Decimal to Hex convertor (google around).
5. The Decimal to Hex converter will spit out a 4-character value. Take the first 2 values and flip them, with the last two values.
6. And you have you hex code.

For example, I did the cruel barb:
The Cruel Barbs display ID is 7311. Putting this into a Decimal to Hex converter I get 1c8f. Flipping the first 2 values it becomes 8f1c.

Hi, I tried changing the model on my Hammer of Atonement to Scepter of the False Prophet, and then tried opening up my WoW, and I got an error. My brother then suggested I install this program called "WoWMe" and it should work, it does on his computer. So I installed it and opened it up through "WoWMe" I can then see WoW start to load, but then all of a sudden it shuts down.

Any suggestion on how to get WoWMe working? Or perhaps another application? Or a way to get it working without a program? Cause when I open WoW normally I get an error message ;/

[Varu]

yes just delete your cache folder and when u return to wow everything will be normal

Hey, got everything to work great. Only one thing, I use 2 Syphon of the Nathrezims, is there a way to make one the MH and the other the OH? I changed them into Warglaives if that helps at all. Thanks, and great guide.
