Converted M2 and SKIN Files from Cata to MoP for 3.3.5a WoTLK

These links will ONLY work from here(emudev), if you were to try to copy and paste them into your address bar, you'd get a 404 error. Many of you should understand why I'm doing it this way. Wasn't Sure where to put this but since it's more of a resource, I figured I'd put it in here.

I saw Portal's thread about offering a free service to convert files. Since I have a bandwagon done already I figured just throw them here. Below are download links to individual Folders from the 5.2.0 MPQ Files. They also contain the Anim and BLP Files that are normally in the folder as well. The main reason for these archives is to alleviate most people from having to convert the M2 and SKIN Files as well as having to take the time in fixing the particle emitters (if they do not know how to code something to do that for them.)

I Plan to add a few other folders as well, not just Creatures, but in the mean time, I'll just see how things go and will decide from there on.

NOTE: You would still have to create your DBC Files to make use of these. Also not all Model Displays have their textures in their own folders. Some models outsource to other folders, such as the Item, Spell, Expansion03/04 folders. Depending on how this thread is recieved, I may take the time into making DBC Files. We'll see.

Creature Folders (386 Total).
As said before, these are just the individual folders from the Creature Folder but with 3.3.5a Compatible M2 and SKIN Files. Not all of them work as they should but I've not had the time to test all of them as there are well over 500 of them, Hozu, Firehawk&Flametalon(Feather Alphas don't render) are among one of the visually broken ones, there may be others.

If the page doesn't load up when you click the link, it may be due to your Ad Blocker. Some Ad Blockers disable my pages from loading.. mainly Internet Explorer plugins.

I had a few more but those folders only contained textures, such as cata/mop has new skins for the raptor classic raptor mounts. I didn't put those in as that can be grabbed by yourself without much problems anyway.

Thanks to Mathex for testing out the links. :D

Kind Regards,
~Anthony Vang.

For Anyone that is having some of the models render out with Green Textures, Please review this video here:
This video is for Creatures, however the same can be done for Game Objects as well.

I already have that, the model uses vertex alpha texture maps which isn't supported in 3.3.5a, So the model may not look good ingame, It will resemble something like this:

34x7w.jpg


Also Firehawk will be needed for this model to work as it's textures are shared with the firehawk model's directory.

You'll have to create your own dbc file for now as I'm no longer working on 335a and no longer have these files locally on my computer.

you can convert the m2/skin files yourself using this little toolset that I put together. some set up on your end is needed.

As for the dbc files, you'll have to figure that out, there are tons of tutorials for that on the internet, such as modcraft.superparanoid.de is a great place to start looking for that stuff.

I don't have the time to look into it. I've been working on Pandaria Island for 335 for the last week, it's a big task.
