How to port your custom Noggit maps to 8.3/9.2

[How to port your custom Noggit maps to 8.3/9.2]

Awesome stuff - I imagine for many the barrier of entry is the amount of tools needed to get started - hopefully this can help some get the ball rolling!

[Night Warrior eyes]

Eye Colour variation is a bit of a tricky one, on one hand it's doable and on the other its a very bloaty, monotonous and crude method to integrate for BFA. 

It's something we were working on, and in the end decided to shelve for this expansion, for the time being, given the crude nature it would have to be integrated. 

 

Hope that answers your curiosity! 

[Patch 830-2f: Customisation Bug Box]

Hey guys! Thanks for the bug reports, you really do help me clean up some oversights that slithered past my way and I can't thank you enough for your selflessness and the time it takes away from you to do! Every bug is noted down and I'll be working on getting these done soon after I've finished getting shit sorted in my new place. Apologies for what feels like a long time considering how hasty the previous updates were! Give it a week or so and again - sorry for the wait!

As per usual, below quotes are addressing things of intent or beyond my control;

• Race: Human

• Sex (Male/Female?): Female

• Type (Animation/Mesh/Texture/Interface?): Texture, I think?

• Description: On female humans, when using this hairstyle and the face it turns, rather than the hair moving with the head, it just drags it out and the hair 'stands still' is the best way I can describe it.
Another thing I found is that some of the hairstyles appear to be...Broken? When not used with the black skin tones, or they lack textures, such as with the cornrows and dreads. And the base piercings are all black and textureless as well.

• Evidence (Screenshot): 

This is how the client handles streaming new data. I believe this is the bug you're referring to, which just gets downloaded over time. If this still has persisted check you don't have any client patch conflicts before hitting me up if it remains!

• Race: Human

• Sex (Male/Female?): Female

• Type (Animation/Mesh/Texture/Interface?): Texture

• Description: Makeups on Female Humans don't correspond with the actual retail version. As a sidenote, probably there is a filter or something missing 
(since i, when i tried to adapt it to models for uses in Blender i needed to filter it.) 

• Evidence (Screenshot):

How it looks in retail: https://eu.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/who-made-the-makeup-on-human-females-shadowlands/179997/23

Shadowlands supports a new way of overlaying textures, particularly for scars. I will mess with the alphas more, but it won't be 1:1 with Shadowlands. That's a limitation of Battle for Azeroth, sorry.

• Race: Blood Elf

• Sex (Male/Female?): Male

• Type (Animation/Mesh/Texture/Interface?): Texture

• Description: The red Vampyr eyes on Blood Elf male skin 26 are gone.

• Evidence (Screenshot):

Use a different face. The faces are now duplicated to support eyeglow or no eyeglow.

• Race: Dwarf 

• Sex (Male/Female?): Female

• Type (Animation/Mesh/Texture/Interface?): Animation / Texture

• Description: For female Dwarves, skin color 10 is lacking textures for accessories like earrings and the feathers. Another issue is that the braid of hair style 19 will sometimes glitch out and flop to the character's back, rather than the side of their neck like it should be.

• Evidence (Screenshot): As you can see, the textures of her earrings, nose ring, and the feather accessory is untextured. Last three pictures show the braid where it should be, and the glitch where it disappears

 

Thanks for the bug on the accessories texture. Unfortunately, this hairstyle's boneset was bugged during this client build even on retail, and is not something I can fix until we shift to the next patch. Sorry!
(Its my favourite hairstyle too :<)

• Race: Night Elf

• Sex (Male/Female?): Male

• Type (Animation/Mesh/Texture/Interface?): ??

• Description: Missing horn options for satyr. There was a previously available horn option with the satyr legs that is now completely missing.

• Evidence (Screenshot):

I hadn't originally intended to open up so many Satyr options for Night Elves, as they would lose the DH horns as a result. The larger options was an oversight on my part that finally got fixed. Sorry, for the confusion this has brought. This compromise could possibly be averted soon however.

• Race: Worgen

• Sex (Male/Female?): Male

• Type (Animation/Mesh/Texture/Interface?): Mesh

• Description: The smaller fangs available for male worgen (i.e. Features 3-4, 7-8, 11-12, 15-16) leave a gap in the mouth. I know this is so minor that it probably isn't even worth reporting, but I figured it couldn't hurt.

• Evidence (Screenshot): 

Compared to the original teeth:

Unfortunately this slipped by the most recent set of hotfixes, so may take a while, you'll most likely see it in the next content update.
Thanks!

• Race: All?

• Sex (Male/Female?): All?

• Type (Animation/Mesh/Texture/Interface?): Mesh?

• Description: Funky behavior with 3d belts. Sometimes they start stretching the hell out, floating several meters in front of the characters. I haven't been able to replicate it to take a good screenshot and I misplaced the one I took yesterday but I've seen it happen on NPCs and some characters, and have had others comment on it. It'd be excellent if someone had any screenshots.

• Evidence (Screenshot): :(

This isnt an M2 issue, this appears to be something funky with the client itself being hammered with requests(?) - this problem also occured during retail Legion.
Thrown the bug report to the relevant channel, thanks.

I'm seeing skin 23 on night elf with faces 1-10 (1-11) is listed as an issue. Would those have to change however as the faces that come after 10 are exactly the same but with the eyeglow? Would give players more options and I believe this has been the case for a long while. Didn't know where else to ask, sorry ?

Dont quite understand what you mean. Faces after the eyeglow lookup have disabled eyeglow, showing the texture underneath (mostly applies to DK eye colours).

[Patch 830-2f: Customisation Bug Box]

When reporting; please try and avoid from making duplicate reports, so I can keep a concise track on everything! Cheers!

[[Fantasy Release!] Hiddaraz Adventurer Sound]

Always love people making these kind of patches, sound is bread and butter to help immerse yourself!

[Additional items for Female Worgen/Human]

This was being worked on when I first started out doing customisation, unfortunately many things borked up for Human Females at the time, and the ETA I needed to release.
As a result, Human Females were put on hold; and by extension Worgen Females (as they essentially share assets with customisation).

Also, the only workaround during BFA is adding different options for human and worgen form; seperating them just isn't feasible at all until SL.

This is being worked on ?

[New texture-cuts in Waist-slot]

Like Raz said it's partly a limitation.

The only way to reasonably get around this (without breaking everything) would be to create new leg textures of every kind cut off on the thighs, with alpha applied.
Though this would be needed to be done, for the most part, manually, for every texture.

I added the program to the exceptions list, but I can’t change the read only property of the folder, When I do that the  folder just put back the "read only" property.

After you hit apply, then ok, the little black square usually persists. Ensure you have admin permissions to do it - the little square should be visible, however.

[Offhand/mainhand location fix for pistolshot pistol items]

I'll have a look into them; see if the spell mesh is different from the item itself.
If it is - I personally see no reason for this not to be included, regardless of replacement ideology.

[Upright Orc.]

Correct, I think this is a leftover change from when we were on 7.3.5, thanks

[I can’t start the tiny client]

Do you have an antivirus? Add to the list of exceptions, if so.
Also make sure your folder is not set to read only; you can do when right clicking the main folder's properties.

Regarding Applicants - I am looking for greener and fresher-faced characters to join in this Campaign; enough substance
to add some of their own personality to the party; with less over-abundant pages of backstory or previous roleplay engagement.

This Campaign is reliant on progression, and more accepting of characters with lesser established roleplay under their belt.
This is for the benefit of the roleplay; its opportunity of progression; party engagement and Dungeon Master material - in what can be conjured.
