At the begining of the guide, it says what the models are for frostsaber, i believe its just Frostsaber.m2 under CREATURE or Creature then \Frostsaber. Then just look through the .blps to see which one ur after.

[Evolutionx]

So the base model is just the frostsaber then i just look for the texture of the one I have? Sounds cool.

Hey, umm, I can edit all of my mounts, except reins of the striped nightsaber, it comes out as a tiger, with the raptor textures, I cant seem to change my tiger mount, any ideas?

[Fault]

u might be ur using the wrong model. Ill try to check after i get off wow what m2 it uses.

[Evolutionx]

alright, i just got out of my shower, is it the riding frostsaber file? im really not sure about tiger mounts, also, what about king banglash, i wana change him, but would it be the same as a mount? and just get the m2 i want?

Nice guide, but I don't quite get 1 thing... the MPQ that I should name "Speech2.m2". (You said " Now in Mywarcraftstudio, click Pack, then click Create new archive, and name it Speech2.m2")
1) Whats the point of creating this MPQ? How does it work?
2) Why do I need to call it .m2 if it is .MPQ? Did you made a typo? So it should be "Speech2.m2.mpq" or do I call it "Speech2.mpq" and later rename it to .m2?
3) Lets say I want to change the Undead Epic Horse for Silithid... There is Purple Horse and Green Horse. I want to replace:
Purple Horse -> Black Silithid
Green Horse - > Red Silithid

So what do I do with the MPQ? do I create "Speech.m2.mpq" and add ALL 3 FILES? ("RidingUndeadWarHorse.m2", "MountedDeathKnightGreen_01.blp" and "MountedDeathKnightPurple_01.blp") or do I need to create 2 seperate MPQ's? Someone please help?

[Fault]

1) a mpq is a package, like a rar, or a zip file, that blizzard reads when they are running wow and trying to display tecturtures.
2) .m2 is what the files INSIDE are called, at least the model files. the .blps are image files
3) for that swap, u can use speech2.mpq, and have all the files inside. All u do is take the sithilid model and rename it to "Riding...m2" (the full thing obviously) and rename the black texture to "Mounted...Purple_01.blp" and do the same with the red texture, just named "Mounted...Green_01.blp"

NOTE: I noticed where u were somewhere confused. I just realized there was a typo saying speech2.m2, instead of speech2.mpq, its fixed now

[Evolutionx]

My toorn So, if I wanted to change the non epic striped tigers, what MPQ am I gona use? I try the frostsaber one, I just get texture..

[Fault]

Just common.mpq, the only mpq really ur gonna use anymore

Hey, thanks a lot, I understand it now. Just have 3 more quastions:
1) Why does it need to be called 'Speech2'? Why 'Speech' and why '2'?
2) I rly want to make my voidwalker Illiden... do you know a TreePath for Illiden?
3) How can I resize the model?

Thank you

Wow man, that was fast, youve answered these quastions in like 5 minutes!

I just had another quastion, I wanted to first edit my post but now that it has been answered already I make a new one:
If I want to use a model that was not design to be a mount, lets say I want 'Gargoyle' as my mount.
When I use 'ModelViewer' and mount my character on Gargoyle, my character is somewhere below the gargoyle rather then sitting on it.

So my quastion is:
How can I deside where my character will be sitting when mounted in the game?

Thank you again

Yep, i try to be very fast and current in this forum, especially in my threads. Anyway, many models have different mounting points. Most partain either to the objects right shoulder, or the ground, or the area underneath it. Now at one point, the greatest of the great could model edit it so that they could move the mount point, but after blizz's new m2s, and the retirement of some of those editors, that is next to impossible, unless u are brilliant, brilliant person with computer languages (basically all of them) and how to edit them. So ur a lil out of luck

Damn! No gargolyes for me then. xD
I just wish someone would make a program that changes the models with 2 mouseclicks. (I know it's possible )

But yeah ty for the replies. Atm still trying to swap my horse for silithid

Edit: Ok very sorry to desturb you again but I now tried everything. I still cant get it to work... here is a screenshot of what my folder and my MPQ look like:
http://i109.photobucket.com/albums/n...g?t=1171505756
I also tried to place the Speech2.mpq into my "World of warcraft/Data" rather then "World of Warcraft/Data/Creatures....."
Whats wrong with it? Please help again
