[Guide] Race to Race

[xmkdunitx]

PATCH-2.MPQ is gone. Ok?!?

Someone else mentioned it earlier -- Blizzard took it away.

As 2.3 is out now, i get a error that the game is unable to validate game version, they disabled Model editing completely?

[Watain]

To the person above you probably dont have the new model edit fix. My problem is with this guide once i get to the stage with irfanview and switching the names i get an error which I think is because now theres only one m2 file in each of the texture folders. Please can you tell me how to get around this? My old race changes work but I wanted to make a new one which is undead male to orc male. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

[Jiwwa]

Hey, for some reason i don't have patch 2 there is only 1 patch.

[Hotdwarf]

Nice guide, gonne try a tauren male hunter this evening

[Croak]

I've made my own edits and used other's edits, but I can't get all the correct textures to show right. Changing a Tauren to Undead. Some of the undead features will show up, but most won't.

So to my question.. is this normal?

hey thnx this is great but one thing
i get all the way to the part

"Now make sure that your NumLock is turned on.
The file will auto Launch WoW, when at the log-in screen, Hit End on your keyboard. Then log in, RIGHT after you hit enter and it says logining in / successful etc.. Hit Shift+7 on your Numpad.
It should log you in, and whatever race conversion you did should be changed. My UD rogue was changed into a NE:"

and i do all those things but it says i have invaled game version even when i hit end b4 logging in and hit shift 7 once it is going through the log in prossess plz help

Alright, I tried to read all the questions and answers here, and I may have missed what I am looking for, but I have an issue. When I open the patch.MPQ file to extract the CHARACTER and Character folders, there is only one of the two there. There is only CHARACTER in the file and not Character. As far as I know I am not doing anything wrong from the guide.

Thanks in advance for the help.

In the bottom left of MWCS there is a setting for what sortof files
it's gonna show when you open up a patch. Check if that setting is
on .blp or .m2 or something. It should be set to "ALL FILE" Hope that helps.

How would I get this to work if I don't have patch-2.MPQ? I only have patch.MPQ =[
