Lost my character's underpants (really)Follow

Anyone considered replacing some of the horde's models with close-to-human ones and then reskinnig them?

true you do have to reskin them to get the faces to align properly, but I think for example, the default human model is better suited to the forsaken.

Why?

Well the non-mindless forsaken (like the ghouls and aboms and stuff) should be like sylvanus, I mean...healing magic works on them, they eat, etc, so you would assume that their body would be "intact" - just with no heartbeat green blood and a distaste for the living

You have something of a point, but there's already an undead nude patch, and quite a good one, at that.

It happened, but you're not on AIM.

Oh, and when did I become a Scholar? What is it, like, a title you get once you have 15 posts or something? *shrug* It looks cool... my name's all blue and stuff. ^_^

Edit: NM, found it. It's Karma-based:
Karma below 3 = user. Posts are in orange.
Karma between 3.01 and 3.65 = scholar. Posts are in light blue.
Karma between 3.66 and 4.34 = sage. Posts are in green.
Karma between 4.35 and 5 = guru. Posts are in red.

Apparently people like my posts.

Alrighty, this is beginning to annoy me. I found the .m2 of a Dawns Edge, Axe_1H_Hatchet_C_01.m2. But the problem comes when I try to texture it, all the textures that correspond to the name, Axe_1H_Hatchet_C_01Black.blp, Axe_1H_Hatchet_C_01Blue.blp, and Axe_1H_Hatchet_C_01Orange.blp do not change the texture. The closest axe graphic I have found is Axe_1H_Horde_C_01Gold.blp, which corresponds to Axe_1H_Horde_C_01.m2, which is nowhere near to my axe.

Any help would be great.

Once I get an Orc skin (either RaziraER's or one that TomPaxton makes) I think I'm going to make an all-in-one file with every race created so far, all in the same form as TomPaxton's so it will work with TOOGAM's as well. It will probably include the following:

Human female by Sandrea
Gnome female by cyrosgold
Dwarf female by cyrosgold
Night Elf female by Sandrea
Night Elf male by wootowl
(Really want better Gnomes and Dwarves, and may work on a similar method to the one cyrosgold used except using Sandrea's human and only moving the small parts so the entire skin of that part of the body isn't affected. We'll see how it turns out.)

Orc female by RaziraER and/or TomPaxton
Troll female by RaziraER and/or TomPaxton
Undead female by Sandrea
(Tauren will have underwear removed for both male and female. With all that fur, I think it will be believable that they are nude.)

It will also probably include TOOGAM's patch. I might make multiple versions; a "larger but easier" and "smaller but more difficult." The smaller will only have one skin per race, and create the transparent files on the fly, using a similar file to TOOGAM's batch file. The larger will contain all the individual "NakedTorsoSkin" and "NakedPelvisSkin" files, rather than creating them on the fly, and also include all the files created by TOOGAM's batch file in an Item folder, all set up to copy/paste. These files come out to 38.3 MB unzipped; I have no idea what size they'll be once they're all zipped up. But for a cable modem user, that isn't a huge deal, especially with the added convenience of just copy/pasting instead of having to run a batch file.

This is my plan... we'll see how it goes.

Ok guys! Havn't a problem. When I download "MyWarcraftStudio" i'm getting an errior. It says something like "not a vaild Win32 application." If anyone has any helpful advice, please IM me on AIM. It's BlueDukc. Or just post here. Thanks alot.

It appears Geocities says you're using too much bandwidth... if anyone can mirror that thing for him, please do.

I definitely recommend http://rapidshare.de - pretty much effortless, seriously. Don't even need to register.

By game programming, I was referring to what Blizzard has designed clothing textures in WoW to do, not saying it is technically impossible.

Complete transparency is different than alpha blended transparency. All the clothing textures I have seen in THIS game are total transparent or solid, which suggests that alpha blending has not been programmed into THIS game for clothing textures, although other parts of the game might use blending.

True, but the forsaken have bones sticking out and are generally really icky
