[Archive] [Recolor] Rogue Tier 8.5 (Terrorblade)

Quote:This is my first recolor of any kind, so I don't expect it to be amazing, but we have to start somewhere. Basically I hated the transition from redish/purple to a green/purple in the rogue t8.5 set, the Conqueror's Terrorblade Battlegear. I have always been a fan of the Rogue tier 2 set, so I went with a full red/black/charcoal color scheme.
Here are some examples with side by side comparisons (Left is Blizzard's, Right is mine.):
Download link: http://www.wasteimages.com/Images/roguet8recolor.rar Original re-color. Female with red chest.
Download link: http://www.wasteimages.com/Images/roguet8recolor2.rar Updated female chest, more gray.
Installation:
The download is a packed .MPQ archive named "patch-.MPQ". All you have to do is move the file to your Data folder under the World of Warcraft directory, and add a number (or capital letter) after the - in "patch-.MPQ". The number/letter should be one you're not currently using for any other MPQ archive. (Obviously)
This requires a model edit fix of some variation. I personally use Kynox's MEF: http://www.mmowned.com/forums/bots-programs/107518-world-warcraft-model-edit-fix-kynox.html
Notes:
June 14th 8:21 E.S.T. : Female chest matching re-color added.
The screenshots are shown wearing NO belt, meaning if you have a belt on it will cover up the face on the belt area of the pants and may not match. It's a minor detail and since it's not included in the set, I did not feel the need to pick a belt and recolor it. Same goes for the boots. You can model swap your boots or belt to any of the leather physical DPS belts from Ulduar (including the crafted ones) and it will match the set theme at least, although the colors will not be the same.
If you don't have the full Terrorblade set, or any of it, you can use any number of methods to model swap your gear to the set. I use Glitchy's Model Swapper. http://www.mmowned.com/forums/model-editing-guides-programs/208624-app-model-swapper-glitchy-3-0-compatible.html
Some constructive criticism good or bad for future skins/recolors would be nice.

Sure, I could definitely work on it. Any particular colors you had in mind, or just less antique?
I'll pull it out after the raid tonight and mess around a little.

Quote: Something Black and Red could be nice, highlights of silver. Something rather satanic
As you've probably noticed, it looks like it came out of a collector's cabinet atm, and the shoulders are made of bronze or something

Yeah they are very boring ATM. I laugh everytime I see people rocking that. Black, Red and Silver highlights, I'll see what it comes out like.

Only thing I could say is to make sure you are definitely wearing, or have swapped to the Conqueror's Terrorblade Chest. If that's all in order, delete the patch and try it again.
Oh, I thought of something. I only saw a female version when I recolored the chest pieces. Are you a male character? If so I may have to include the files for that, if that's the case I will get on that right away.
EDIT: Yeah I found the male files, I didn't change those and that's probably the problem. I will have a male working upload shortly, apologies.
EDIT2: Now working properly for males. I tested it in game with a human male.

By the way I didn't forget about this, I've just been a bit distracted! I have the files pulled, just have to decide how I want to work it.
