Hey!

Words can't express how hopeless I am right now. It seems like whenever I try to do something more complicated than dbc editing, NOTHING FUCKING WORKS!

Basically, there's this model "Glaive_1H_Twilighthammer_b_01.M2":

What I've tried to do is to take this model, change the middle part just a little bit in blender, export it, then mirror the whole model so it fits the other hand and export that too. Then convert the result into m2 and use it ingame.

I've tried using both m2mod v4 and OBJtoM2, but m2mod would just crash on converting. OBJtoM2 would create the two m2 files and skin files for them, but the lefthand model appears as the good old blue-white cube, and the righthand model doesn't appear at all. Wonderful.

 

P.S. I've also tried converting those two models (from OBJtoM2) to cata using jM2, but that didn't help.

Might be quite annoying, but I'll show the whole process:

1) Saving the two models:

2) Converting one, using RenderFlags from the original model, then repeating the whole thing for the othe one:

3) Trying ingame:

4) Converting to Cata using jM2 (repeating for both):

Why the frog you have there 4 of render flags for one model ? and Why you export it as "Armature" ?

I said I just copied the render flags from the original Glaive_1H_TwilightHammer_B_01.M2 model. And there's a screenshot showing that model having those render flags.

What do you mean? Where do I choose how to export it?

[Alastor StrixEfuartus]

Actualy ?

I was following that guide, yes. But exporting as "armature" wasn't mentioned anywhere. To be honest, I don't even see the word armature anywhere on those screensots I've posted. 

And what about those 4 render flags? Why does the original model have them?

Maybe I'm just stupid. Sorry(

How can I change that?

Hey, Alastor, I followed your tutorial on making custom shoulders (actually, I was editing some existing ones), but the model doesn't appear ingame. What could be the reason?

[Alastor StrixEfuartus]

Your name is known to me for using Cata expansions did you upconverted them ?

Yes, I did. I tried both jM2 and Ghaster's 010 script

[Alastor StrixEfuartus]

Both are on this website, I think.

Anyway, the model doesn't appear in WMV either, so I guess it's not a problem of wow version

I tried exporting it as m2i and as obj (following your tutorial). M2mod just couldn't convert, and the obj converted well, but doesn't show up ingame. Maybe that's because I did something wrong with the texture units/render flags/etc?

Hey!

I'm trying to get Medivh's shoulderpads (meaning from Medivh's WoW model) as a separate armor and I get the following error on conversion:

Unrecognized token during OBJ parsing : #
Unrecognized token during OBJ parsing : #
Unrecognized token during OBJ parsing : mtllib
Unrecognized token during OBJ parsing : o
Geoset 1 will use material None
Unrecognized token during OBJ parsing : s
Error loading OBJ file

I guess this is because of the feathers, which kinda do not have a constant model, but assume the shape of the texture (idk how to explain it properly). How can I fix that?

I've done the whole process again and exported correctly, but the model is completely transparent:
