Turtle WoW

It looks great! Thank you so much!

I realize this may be a more complicated issue related to new items in the game, but since installing these patches, I am no longer able to see my equipped items when I sheath/unsheathe.

That said, it looks great! Thank you for all your contributions!

That is, unfortunately, a problem that was in the original version of the mod before I touched it, that I noticed on other servers. I notice that the redone items, like Verigan's Fist, don't seem to have this issue, so I'm assuming it has to do with items that don't have new models. Since there's far too many items in the game for any one person to try to replace or grab "Legion versions" of, that's going to be taken as an acceptable bug. You can however fix this issue by finding something to attack so your character takes a combat stance, at which point their weapon will be in their hands.

--- Hard Crash Report!---
So in Searing gorge somewhere between the flight points and BRM there is a spot that crashes the game 100% of the time. if I try to even log my character again with the mod on it crashes the game instantly in that particular part of the zone.

This issue was just addressed today in the last few posts. Please update to the latest version of patch-W.MPQ. The issue is caused by a Twilight Dark Shaman NPC that is a Tauren, and it is a crash caused by custom horns.

Crestian is currently working on blue eyes for High Elves, and we are looking into a potential issue related to some graphical bugs with them and black Night Elf hair. Once the issue is resolved, we will push a new update and keep you posted on the next set of assets in progress.

Thank you both for your hard work

Hey all, if anyone interested i have the water patch, that works with Twow client. It's not the full procedural thing, but it looks nicer than standart vanilla water repeating texture.

Thanks.

This patch still doesn't seem to do anything as far as I can tell, even if I remove all the other custom patches from this thread. Either loading it before Turtle's patches or after, it doesn't seem to have any impact on whatever textures whatsoever. And as shown in my screenshot, when paired with the other patches, it just causes the water to be flat and white.

Currently seeking a BLP master, a modder who knows the perfect ins and outs of getting a texture in the precise specifications to display properly in WoW. I'm talking exact compression, format, alpha, mipmaps, everything needed to not throw weird texture glitches in-game.

We have custom PNGs being made, and I have tried my hand with various different BLP tools to get them working, but alas, there are still problems. If there's anyone out there willing to take a crack at getting these to work in-game, I'd be happy to offer guidance on how to test the new assets Crestian's making.

Very cool! Besides the blue eyes, the skin tone on all my High Elves seems different with the patch. They all go from pale to a darker almost orange-brown shade that I associate with Blood Elves. I’m hoping this is part of the graphical glitches being looked into, because it is kind of a deal breaker for me.

Any chance to update the goblins models?

That is easier said than done. It may be on the itinerary if I can get the current projects resolved.

Any progress on the emotes? I remember they were driving you mad in world chat the other week.
I think the sounds should definitely get merged into 1.16.1 by torta since its basically a Bugfix.

Is it possible to fix the missing sitting animation for female highelf this way too?

I'm taking a bit of a hiatus, at least for a week, to try to enjoy the game since this was driving me up a wall. The first thing I will look at when I return is female blood elf sitting, however.

I can fully relate to that, as a mod Modder and macro writer too, this can relate take up all energy and drains the fun when going on for too long

If I try to modify games, I eventually get obsessed with modifying them to the point where it's never enough and I keep losing enjoyment in the game. And even when it's fully modified, I can never enjoy it as I would have when I didn't know the first thing about mods. Now I just try to play my games as bare-bones as possible, except on some occasions mods actually add more content and replayability to the game, like the Horn of the Abyss mod for Heroes of Might and Magic 3 or Morrowind Rebirth for The Elder Scrolls 3 Morrowind.

Reporting that something in the patch seems to trigger spell effects not being removed after their duration is over. I've seen this in consecration and hurricane, and also some effect that I'm not sure what exactly it is, but it leaves a small white sparkle on the ground.

See screenshot from a recent aq20 raid:

Haven't seen that happen with my Consecrate yet, but bear in mind that Your Mileage May Vary, and some of these issues are beyond my knowledge to rectify / may be issues the original pre-Turtle mod had.

I found out that the small white sparkle that's left on the ground is from a mage's blink. One mage blinked right in front of me in Stormwind and left it behind. I've tried to remove the hd rextures, all mods, and the cata water mod, as well as patch-T too, to see if anything was messing with it. But nothing seems to have any impact. The spell effects always stay if the mod models are used.

Not really sure what the problem is - this only started happening to me with the latest update. Anyone else having similar issues?

Edit: actually ignore all this. I removed the hd mod as well, and still had the issue. Somehow it's the client that got buggy.

They're lucky charms left for you to pick up by Mages!

Still looking for someone who's able to expertly work with BLPs and ensure they maintain the same format as similar assets. Can't make any progress with the patch until someone can fill this role.

Hello! I want to say that your mod is really nice and good-looking! Alas, I'm not looking for graphical improvements (I belong to those strange people that like old graphics in games more). But I had noticed that in your mod you'd changed the music to Cataclysm tracks. I like the diversity of Cata music, so may I ask you, if you could do the patch only with Cata music? I guess there are more people than me that'd like that. Of course, if it isn't hard for you.

Sorry for bothering. Just deleted everything music un-related in Patch-W. Still kudos to ya for your work! Eager to see next versions!

Hello, I also got the issue with staying effects on the ground.
Actually I am just using the voice patch, und have removed the ground texture one again, but the issue prevails (never tried the character model patch)

Someone on discord claimed updating nvidia helped him, but for me no change.

As someone pointed out above, that issue is completely unrelated to these patches.

While there are still some rough edges in need of polishing on the current patch, I have given consideration to getting my hands on the Battle for Azeroth files (where new Goblin models were introduced) in the hopes of seeing about importing them. As previously stated, however, the assets may have changed immensely in format by that point and no longer be compatible without being retrofitted, so no promises.

Bug report. High elf priest t2 helm (Halo of transcendence) (on women not tested on men)
The model doesn't appear at all when worn with W patch installed and if character preview is opened with a high elf wearing one the entire character disappears in the window. Even the character select screen goes completely black if a helf is wearing one.

Great, now I have to figure out what could possibly be causing THAT. It's specifically when the item is equipped and unequipped that you can see this happen?

Thank you for your work. You are amazing!!!

Is there a way to only download the legion models without having world and spell models ? Would love to have the option to only use the character models.

omg this is so awesome! I never thought this day would come!

@Glarthir yeah bro, works like a charm

Your work is awesome

But id love have the eagles with upgraded model (i have a amani eagle as hunter pet and retain the classic model. And looks crappy compares with new models)

https://www.wow-petopia.com/look.php?id=eagle2brown

Is a way to make this possible?
