Known issue with the Forest Trolls skins, due to not having custom HD textures for them. Please be patient.

The patch is not currently being developed until a final client update comes through which addresses some of the bugs, as this will require comparing client files for compatibility. I will let everyone know when a new update is in the works.

Missing some enviromental textures on character creation sometimes the models won't load other than that everything is going great

Please be patient. There will be some compatibility issues during the post-update period. I will keep everyone posted on when I start working on a new compatibility patch.

Can i make a Suggestion?

With the hd models all hunter pets have a cool skin

All except foxes and eagles

Very sad because eagles have a really cool hd model that may be implemented with the patch

Look at his coolness

I cannot pull any assets from the new CASC file structure used in Warlords onward, and rely entirely upon work that another person did to obtain the assets prior for my patch. If someone wants to provide the assets, I can certainly apply them, but I have already tried and failed to make sense of CASC. I can only pull assets from MPQ which is used from vanilla up through Mists of Pandaria.

A bit of a far cry, but is it at all possible to load for example Draenei models as a stand-in for a different race?

I have no intention of working on an entity-swapping patch. Is it possible? Yes but with significantly more work involved than simply replacing files. You would have to make that your own personal project.

I just installed the 2 mods yesterday and am loving it. And as I can tell from previous posts it's not even fully polished because of the recent Updates. So great work and thank you so much =)

Good afternoon, I saw what the shields of mages and priests look like and I didn't like it. Can you tell me how their files are called in MPQeditor for deletion?

You don't. Once again, you wait until I make an update when all these patches stop dropping. I have it under good authority that there is going to be a Turtle patch squish, which will avail much more space for custom patches. I will post updates after that time. Please simply play without Turtle HD in the interim.

Thank you! for the updates! Is there a place where I can get the Whitemane skin from Draenor, so I can maybe help you with getting it into the patch?

Or is there a way to replace the scarlet inquisitor skin with regular human skin so it doesn't appear broken?

Hey, I have tried many things now, but after applying your patch, my character misses it's icon on the top left and at the character screen. My friends also told me, that I don't have a character icon on their end.
I have unpacked a new .zip from the client, started the game and everything was there. After applying the patch and logging in again, it's gone. Very weird problem.

I found a bug with some of the dwarf / troll textures. It appears for certain skin color selections for these two races - notably the Wildhammer dwarf skins and whatever the troll equivalent is. Other races don't appear to be affected.

The texture bug occurs for both genders, across (probably) all permutations of the other character appearance settings.

I took them down because, as I said, they are not up to date and not compatible with the current version. There will be an official release once the patch squish happens which I'm told is a few weeks out. I made a quick and dirty compatibility patch which I'm testing personally, but it's not stable enough for release yet.

Please be patient and play without the patch for the time being. Look forward to a more stable patch in the future.

Awesome work, I appreance it so much, it really adds some new life onto old content.
One question tho; is there any chance in future for new HD models to be added for High Elves? Or it's just too hard to implement on custom race like that?

The patch should contain updated Blood Elf models, but if there's newer ones, it will be very difficult to acquire as CASC is not easy to navigate and pull assets from in post-Pandaria files.
