3D Belt.

40 New druid forms.

First of all, Hello everyone.

it's probably a silly question. but i'm working on a community project (will be revealed soon) and i was asking myself a question. is there anyway we could re-organize how .MPQ patches are loaded by the client ?

This is the actual structure :

common.MPQ > common-2.MPQ > expansion.MPQ > lichking.MPQ > patch.MPQ > patch-2.MPQ > patch-3.MPQ

I would like to have a new structure like :

common.MPQ > Vanilla.MPQ > TBC.MPQ > Wotlk.MPQ

Do anyone has knowledge in this field ? and if possible can help out ?

i Sent you a PM

Yes copy all the spells.

new spell_gen_mount("torment", 0, SPELL_TORMENT_100, SPELL_TORMENT_310); 

"torment" is what you have to put in spell_script_name as scriptname

should be 90019 torment and not 90019 spell_torment

do you have the "main spell" that cast the others ?

i did it yesterday it worked wel..

I Copied Invincible Mount Spells it had 4 differents rows.

my .cpp look like this

new spell_gen_mount("spell_Volcanic_Stone_Drake", 0, 1088331, 2088331, 3088331, 4088331);

and my SQL

INSERT INTO `Spell_Script_Names` VALUES (88331,"spell_Volcanic_Stone_Drake");

"88331" is the original spell.

"1088331"+ is the variants

Don't forget to recompile / restart / delete cache !

did you added the sql ?

spell_script_names

Nevermind..

Morph command is coded with uint16 :

uint16 display_id = (uint16)atoi((char*)args);

i changed it to :

uint32 display_id = (uint32)atoi((char*)args);

Hey guys, so i recently retro-ported models from WoD to Wotlk

However i get this issue : .Morph aren't showing the correct model but the creature do..

Why is this happening ?

Get Battle.net app from http://eu.battle.net/en/app/

create a free account if you don't have one. and switch to PTR installation.

16 (Stand/MountSpecial)

as i said for mount special sound you have to fill the column 16 in creaturesounddata with the row you created in soundentry.

also i'm not sure but may the legion sounds need to be converted ?

SoundEntries.dbc

column 3 : (Sound Name - Can be anything you want)

column 4 - 13 : (Sound Name & Extension) ex : MON_Horse_Attack_01.ogg

column 24 : Path EX : Sound\\Creature\\Horse

SpellVisualKit.dbc

Column 3 : 54 (Player Animation)

Column 16 : SoundEntries ID

SpellVisual.dbc

column 2 : 358 (For Visual Effect on Summoning)

column 3 : SpellVisualKit ID

Spell.dbc
column 132 : SpellVisual.dbc ID

SoundEntries.dbc

Column 2 : 10 (To specify sound creature)

Column 3 > 13 : Sounds
Create new row for each Sound type example (Attack) (Wound) (WoundCritical) (Death) (Stand/MountSpecial)

CreatureSoundData.dbc

column 2 (Attack) , 11 (Wound), 14 (WoundCritical) , 15 (Death) , 16 (Stand/MountSpecial)

fill them with the ID of row of SoundEntries.dbc

And Finally,

CreatureModelData.dbc

column 14 : CreatureSoundData ID

this is how you add sound and spawn visual effect for mounts however i've never replaced an old row i always create new one. so i guess you will have to figure out what to check to see if you have a missing sound file.

i hope this helped you.

Some Update :

Invocation sounds :

SoundEntries.dbc

SpellVisualKit.dbc

Linked To Spell.dbc

Creature Sounds :

SoundEntries.dbc

CreatureSoundData.dbc

Linked To CreatureModelData.dbc

Creature FootPrint :

FootPrintTextures.dbc

For Column References check this website : https://wowdev.wiki/

I'm not yet on 7.X models but CreatureSoundData.dbc could be what you're looking for !

Hey guys,

So Voila, I've been working for the past few months to retro-port all items from Cataclysm to Legion and i still have one bug left that haunt me the Waist Buckle Visual Effect.

Each Waist has Buckle Visual Effect (An M2 and Multiple BLP : one for each row in ItemDisplayInfo). my current problem is that the Buckle even if the mdx and blp are added in the ItemDisplayInfo are not loaded.. whatever i do it does not load !
I've also tried to add the effect as a spell however this technique is not suitable since there's around 200 Buckle X their color. and require some M2 edit to link the blp.

Note : BeltBucket Socket Attachement is correctly configured on .M2 for all Races

Could it be the client that does not load the .M2 / BLP the way MoP / WOD / Legion does it ? is there any way to edit the way the client read a dbc file ? Does anyone ever found the way to fix it in a blizzlike way ?
