Neo was left by its developers unfinshed. Editing maps in Noggit and then upconverting them to WoD is the only way of getting map edits to WoD. Don't ask my about details of process though, I never tryed to do that myself.
Creature (Entry: 240001) has no model defined in table `creature_template`, can't load. Followed the video step by step 5 times now and it just won't work.
Hi, I quit modding more than a year ago, I am not keeping up with any modding or TC2 updates, nor am I updating my tools anymore (and this tool is very old, judging by its code, as I am checking it now). My ability to help you is thus very limited. It's very possible TC2 has "fixed" something what was not broken to begin with, yet again, without giving a shit about backwards compatibility - yet again. When I compare trinitycore.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/tc/pages/2129996/creature%2Bmodel%2Binfo documentation and my SQL in code "(DisplayID, boundingRadius, combatReach, gender, DisplayID_other_gender)" with 4 fields casually renamed for no good enough reason since the creation of this tool, I am fairly certain that is exactly what heppened here. Did you get any error message from the tool when generating the records though? So, check your creature_model_info if model_info was created by the tool there correctly. If not, either fill it by hand, or reach out to me on Discord Amaroth#9907 and I will try to update my tool, even while its code is horrible and very outdated for my standards, and see if that works. I have no way of testing this myself though.
Is there any way to edit npc models serverside entirely? I really want to be able to find a way to just simply change the armor an npc is wearing, i.e like how you can change the weapon they are holding I was just wondering if there was a way you could do that with armor without having to make a baked image every single time you change an npc. I have friends who play on my server and I just want to not have to constantly give them the updated patch.mpq if I can help it.
Hey guys, the tool is currenly outdated, as it expects "(DisplayID, boundingRadius, combatReach, gender, DisplayID_other_gender)", while trinitycore.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/tc/pages/2129996/creature%2Bmodel%2Binfo has apparently changed structure since. I will see if I can update this tool or maybe make column names in it configurable, so we can avoid TC changing col names on whim (because I guess it's fun and definitely needed) screwing us over completely. I give no guarantees when or if I manage to update the tool for now though, the code is a nasty mess I am not very proud of.
"By polygons"? What do you mean by that? Places which are supposed to be transparent are not, or are there shading issues? Have you set alpha channel just in Photoshop, on texture, or in M2 texture's render flags as well? I explain how to do that part here: th-cam.com/video/J1TX21lbe0g/w-d-xo.html
So tried it with some minor trouble i actually managed to almost reach the end, but then something isn't working with NPCGenerator, both when clicking Test Connection or Generate it will bring up this error - i.imgur.com/ezleJW3.png Any insight on this if its not too much to ask ?
Hi, never got that one myself, try looking for MySQL 1042 error online, maybe stackoverflow.com/questions/23965151/error-1042-mysql-c will help? Make sure you have correct domain, or just use directly IP address?
@@AmarothEng Yeah searching in google was gonna be my 2nd try,decided to comment here since i view you as the "source" so to speak.Still you raise some good points, will try harder to solve it.Thanks for the quick reply btw didn't expect it to be so fast.
Definitely no. Note that in general my whole channel is WotLK only. I don't even do Cata+ modding at all, so when it comes to questions "does this also work on expansion XYZ other than WotLK", answer will always either be "no idea" or "no".
dont know if this channel is still active, but does all this stuff only work on Wotlk?
Hmm... Nice.
But you can say about world/map editor for WoD?
Noggit? Neo?

I try upconverting to WoD, but no one of "converter" was stability

Good tutorial

Hi, I believe you can do that with Eluna core, but I have never tried that one.
I like it, thanks :)

Hello ! I created a m2 model tree. But the foliage is displayed by polygons. Alpha channel does not work. Please help

Is this method still up to date for WoD Modding?
Definitely no.
Note that in general my whole channel is WotLK only. I don't even do Cata+ modding at all, so when it comes to questions "does this also work on expansion XYZ other than WotLK", answer will always either be "no idea" or "no".
Alright thank you for clarifying!
