Hi.

Could someone tell(like noob)/help me how can I fix textures? I'd like replace night Elf male with Ankoan(deepjinyumelee) .

I replace m2 files and animation with NF and add folder called deepjinyumelee with textures in creatures but model is white.

For moonkin version works perfectly.

It looks like the model has Creature option textures in the M2, which means you'd have to define what textures they'd use in CreatureDisplayInfo.dbc. So, for example, you'd go to the Night Elf player entry in CreatureDisplayInfo.dbc, and change columns 7-9 (usually just 7, but if it doesn't work, I'd also add it to the 8th column and see what results you get) to one of your textures - say, for example, Deepjinyumelee_body_green. This does mean, however, that all Night Elf player models would have the Deep Jinyu green skin.

If you want it to swap textures like a player model, it requires more prep and you'd need to go into the .M2 with 010 Editor and use the M2Template you can find on this site. Using this, you can go to struct Textures and change those 2 TT_CreatureSkins to TT_BodyOrClothes or HairOrBeard (whichever is up to you, your model, and the textures you want to display). BodyOrClothes includes clothing textures you'd expect to see from equipment, whilst HairOrBeard ignores clothing and is (obviously) used more for hairstyles. You'd also need to get all the skin and face texture files and index them through an image editor, such as GIMP, so they don't show up neon green in-game. After this, and as you're replacing Night Elves, your best bet (without delving into CharSections.dbcs) is to rename your DeepJinyuMelee_Body skins to match Night Elf male ones (for example, NightElfMaleSkin00_00).

Hi @Hahaha   I'm realy noob and I don't see here  " struct Textures". I'm trying to understand the manual written by You, but I am not able to. :(   This is my first time with this program and modding like this. So far, I've only ported files in the simplest way thanks to the Legion -> Wotlk Multi Converter, but I really want a fully functional  this character.
