Hiya,

I'm wondering if someone can explain/redirect me on  a retard friendly ( if possible) guide on how to retro-port textures from for example WoD to 3.3.5a and replace them with current once inside your project ( if that's by hand inside noggit then No problem obvly)

Pref, also on how to find and extract said textures.

Any help is appreciated as always.

There are no changes to texture file formats since vanilla. You can just copy files.

Alright, and if I would rename the new textures to the same as the old, will the new replace the old?

[Uthil]

The only thing that vanilla has different was the size as TBC too. From WotLK texture size changed. Yes you can rename them as the defaults. Cant tell you if it works for mapping, but i guess it should. For my mod i didnt changed the names i used the default ones since i created the patch that overlaps the default patches.

Okay so I'm having trouble getting stuff out of WoD. Basicly...

so I've tried doing this but (off course) for me it is currently not working.

I've downloaded the WoD client from Firestorm, Then downloaded the cracked exe " 6.2.3.20726 " since that is the version of the client
( Cracked exe found by the thread of Rangorn), Then downloaded Casceditor by zezula (First link on google)

But when trying to open to data file(s) of 1gig at start I get an error:
"The opened storage does not support listfile. Please, Choose a listfile for loading storage files:"

The list is empty, When pressing Ok it loads but everything is unknown files and prolly not seen correctly.
 

Spoiler

 

Sidenote, I found the client very wierd as it req. their private server launcher to be able to start the game and the client folder did not have an exe.

Also starting the game with the cracked exe causes it to crash.

So yea, What are all the things I'm doing wrong?

Ill suggest to get a client from here, since in most project as we know the client might happen to be altered for "many" reasons and since this site has each of any version. At least for me the 6.0.2 was totally fine.

Alright so, I finally was able to download the version from the site you adviced.
But am I suppose to do now with Casc since my tutorial I was following doesn't look anything like that version.

[Uthil]

You might need a more updated listfile maybe ? Dont know what tut you following, but judging from the picture the list file isnt updated.

Try bloewalds one, hes updating it at least if even its not the last one. https://github.com/bloerwald/LegionFiles

Afaik it should be complete for wod except for files removed after wod. It should also contain 7.2.

[Poisonleaf]

Uhm, Sorry but I'm badly confused now. What should I do?

[Uthil]

Get the listfile from the github link and replace it with the one that CascViewer uses. From the picture you posted seems that the list file from cascviewer is outdated so thats why you have unknown files. But by replacing to the latest one you will probably can see how is the structure and probably you could extract the files you need.

kk ill try to do that in a second.
Mind if I ask where you found the cracked .exe for the wow version you told me to get? (Version 6.0.2.18764)

There is none listen on the cracked .exe file list on ownedcore nor on the megafile list of said thread.
Google doesn't supply a decent link either

Thanks in advance.

Edit: Using casc and the listfile you have support I am able to see file folder and names.
So I don't need a cracked exe for 6.0.2 ?

Still have to find my way to the map textures though.

Edit 2: Found my way to one part of the textures I want but having trouble locating the textures used in the battleground twin peaks.
Any idea's?

Thanks again for the help so far mate.

For that i cant answer you unfortunately, maybe amaroth or skarn or someone that is a map creator can en-light you a bit more.
