Hi,

I've been working on this on/off for some time.

atm I started to work with the current HDPlayerModel in shadowlands of the undead male. As I know alot of the old player base miss the old character models for retail

let alone, the option to swap, me personally. I love the old undead male model due to its amazing cast animations.

I want to try to understand this model editing more; I've come to a point I can't seem to pass,

my problem is; I do not know if I lack any program in order to fix it

atm I use;

blend, wow model viewer & wow.tools - And I use a special launcher to launch the game with the mods on.

the programs allow to drag & swap things easy around

I will upload a picture to showcase how far I am in progress

maybe expert eyes will allow the help I need. So far I am even willing to pay 10-15 EU for show me how to do this [Image: smile.png]

have a good one

add my discord - leave a note who & where u found me

Solo para agregar; Intenté convertir todos los archivos de textura de wow.explore
y me senté y renombré manualmente el sd a hd e importé a la carpeta; hice un movimiento pero no demasiado, así que todavía estoy esperando si alguien lo sabe mejor que yo

al menos quitó la cara y se volvió gris. Traté de cambiar el nombre de casi 500 archivos
de la
cara
inferior, la piel del
torso,
etc.

también adjunto una captura de pantalla para aquellos que estén dispuestos a seguir el progreso; Si quieres, todo esto se cargará una vez hecho y todavía estoy dispuesto a pagar un repuesto genial por un resultado.

I tried to translate on google, I seem to understand abit of what u wrote;

I went to google & searched for .m2 editor

came accross this link;
[legion] .m2 010 editor - Modeling - Model Changing Network - WoW Modding Community (model-changing.net)

Which tho seem to be abit out of date

Could u recommend any programs in order to fix this issue?

i went to the button of the link I shared here;

"So... after so much struggle i finally found a way to simply change the item appearance. For that I just had to find the Item IDs of both shoulders and then modify the numbers in the following files:

- items.db2

- itemModifiedAppearance.db2

- Item-Sparse.db2

After finding the IDs of both shoulder models, I just changed then numbers of the model i wanted to change to the same as the model i wanted to get. Basically changes the look and effects of the item ingame, but for some reason not in the character screen. So there I will have to continue searching. But for now I am really happy that I finally made it... geez.... just used wowdev.wiki and read a lot about the db2 files and their structure.

Also if someone out there is looking for a db2 editor. Get the barncastle´s WDBC editor. It works perfectly.

EDIT: appearantly it is enough to just modifiy the entries in ItemModifiedAppearance.db2"

I have no clue if this is related or not, I just think some of it sounds abit relatable

maybe u can help
