Quote: This is the release of the Westfall mod that I posted in the showoff forums. It takes Westfall and changes it from it's dead, boring self into what it might have looked like before the Defias came through and pillaged everything and ran the farmers out.
Some things about it might seem a little bit odd - for example, some skeletons remain in a couple of the fields. There's nothing I can do about that for now, since I created this on a Mac and unfortunately Macs don't support model swapping outside of spells and mobs - it only allows texture swapping, which is what this entire mod is made of.
I may release an improved version that utilizes modelswapping (and as a result, the change would be much richer and deeper) in the near future. All that's holding me back is waiting for a Ethernet --> USB converter to hook up to my old PC to come in the mail (yes, Dell was too cheap to include an ethernet card with this piece of junk)
--- SCREENSHOTS ---
--- DOWNLOAD ---
http://iindigo3d.com/westwood.mpq
--- INSTALLATION ---
Windows: Truthfully, I have absolutely no idea. I think you just drop the westwood MPQ in your data folder with a name like "patch-8.MPQ". If someone could fill me in on Windows mod installation that would be great.
Mac OS X: Rename the westwood MPQ to something like "patch-enUS-5.MPQ" and drop it in /World of Warcraft/Data/enUS/. Substitute the appropriate abbreviation for enUS for other countries in both the patch name and the directory. Any number from 3-8 should work fine for the file name, and the .MPQ extension must be capitalized.
Enjoy! If there are any issues with the mod post them here and I'll do what I can to deal with them.
