Quote: Hey guys!

This is my first area change and first serious attempt at any sort of WoW resource changing. This change was inspired by snoman's Westwood mod, and while it's not new or original, I figured I'd post it for a reason that I will reveal in the next paragraph.

As a Mac user, my model changing ability is somewhat limited. There are currently no direct MPQ editors for Mac OS X, so I am left with the method of dropping "patch-enUS-8.MPQ" files that I create in the WoW data folder (that still works on the Mac client without things like modeleditfix). This method is buggy, however, and won't allow model changes for anything other than spells and creatures.

I decided to use this limitation to see exactly how far I could go by simply swapping and editing textures. All that you are about to see is a result of a heck of a lot of texture changing - absolutely no model/wmo swapping or DBC editing is used.

If there's a enough of a positive response, I'll make this mod available for download. I'm not sure that anybody would want it though, considering how there's a few other Westfall mods out there...

EDIT: This area change has been released here: http://www.mmowned.com/forums/model-...-westwood.html
