[Guide] Armor / Weapon Changing

[Varu]

It happened to everyone, you need to go back into WoW and it should be fine, (Log into WoW on a char)

[SanCo]

Been online on diffrent chars for several days now, still don't got them. Must be that I can't quite WoW proper, have to "Force close", it just freeze when I press quit.

EDIT: Nvm latest update on wine must have fixed that now. Just took them a few weeks, about 3-4 I think. It's all good again.

Oh nvm. Found it.

I've been using this method for awhile now, it's so much more convenient than changing actual models/skins.

Great guide by the way, thanks for the contribution!

No need to.
If you want to get rid of the edit or you screw something up, just delete the itemcache.wdb and login to WoW, you'll receive a new one.

I downloaded MPQ2K on Rapidshare but I can't run the program. I downloaded lmpqapi.dll which was missing from the .zip and I still can't run it. It just says "Blah", then I clic OK and nothing happen.

The Program ive provided separates the blocks more to its easier to see, in Hex Workshop all the blocks are together and its more difficult to determine whats what

Great Guide, took me not to long to figure out, it was more of a combo between Hex workshop and Xv132.exe, before really clicked,
My 29 twink now has
Tier 1
Tier 2
Tier 3
Tier 4
Tier 5
and glad sets, I created a whole bunch of copies and made separate itemcache.wbd files so i can switch in and out of each set very fast, or switch into the org. without having to go back into Xv132 and reset every piece of gear.

Thanks again, this was allot of help and for basic Armor/weapon swapping, this is one of the best forums our there.
