I'm sure everyone who cares already knows by now about Cata patch and model edits. When I was thinking about possible solutions, I came across the question of exactly HOW did it break? My best guess would be a lockdown on the list of data that is read into the game. It might explain why we can no longer piggy-back our models by naming it a higher priority patch and skins still work by replacing a whitelisted sound patch.
On that line of thinking, I am going to see what happens if I try and insert the model edits into the main character mpqs directly. Essentially, replacing the basic models. I will play with it tonight when I can get back to my main computer and post the results. I was wondering though if anyone had this same idea and whether or not anything came out of it?
Let me know if you did. Thanks, and looking forward to hearing from others until we have the solution nailed!
Several people have already made progress on what's breaking the models here:
I don't remember what page it's on, but they've already spoken about it and what they're saying makes sense.
