Re: I declare all druid cat forms to be raptors...it is done.
New mod or replaced the file in the folders?
I know you can turn your flying mount into Onyxia and stuff with certain files.
That is cool though.

diving into the .mpq (such as patch.mpq) files and switching around the .blp (skin) and.m2 (model) files

Re: I declare all druid cat forms to be raptors...it is done.
Didn't Blizz outlaw that at some point? I remember there being a mod that let people reskin their armor, but Blizz took exception to it. (Don't know why, I mean, nobody else can see it but you.)

Re: I declare all druid cat forms to be raptors...it is done.
That's odd--if only you can see it--how is it Quarius and himself are both raptors? that is a screen shot correct?

because they both were using the same skin at the time, druid Cat.

Re: I declare all druid cat forms to be raptors...it is done.
It was done with the Hunter T2 armor because people didn't like the purple and with the epic staff because...it was a staff that was duct taped together. But that was not the reason why they took exception to it.

It was a confirmed casualty some time ago.

Re: I declare all druid cat forms to be raptors...it is done.
It isn't illegal and isn't detectable...since it is only client side and doesn't affect gameplay...
and, yes...it replaces the druid cat skin, so Quarius couldn't see it, but I can...since it's on my client...not his.
Also, this is totally reversible by removing one file, which I created myself.

Re: I declare all druid cat forms to be raptors...it is done.
Actually, it is illegal according to the EULA (section 4A, the "not allowed to modify the Game" clause). Also, they specifically added a "Consent to Monitor" clause to the EULA (section 5) to give them the ability to legally monitor your RAM while the game is running. That means they could easily and legally detect any changes made to the game either to a file or in memory by running a hash algorithm (like MD5) over it and compare the result against a "known value". They don't necessarily have to do that checking in the client either...they could send the hash algorithm result off to the server to do the actual comparing.
Your also making the assumption that Blizzard is going to bother checking that your game modification is benign. They might not...they might just see a modication to the game and terminate your service (which they can do at any time and for no reason).
However, I am guessing that Blizzard is after specific game modifications like key loggers and not after general game modifications so your probably safe. I wouldn't do it though :-)

Re: I declare all druid cat forms to be raptors...it is done.
They can easily enforce what they deem inappropriate by just hard coding things in with patches like the aforementioned fix to the nudity modifications.
However I could see how things could be inappropriate since you could in theory change the model for herbs and ore nodes to something really big like a Gronn or blow up the size to make it easier to farm and give yourself an unfair advantage.
They don't have to ban illegal activities of such a minor scale, just make it harder to pull off.My sanity is not in question...

Re: I declare all druid cat forms to be raptors...it is done.
yeah...I'm just doing something that Blizz should be doing anyways...our forms have been the same since day 1...we need a slight tweak. Nothing fancy or game altering.
I chose raptor because it's roughly the same size (distance from center-point to target wise) as the cat and it's relatively in-line with druid lore. I could turn my flying form into the new engineering mounts...lol, but no...

Of course they've been the same way since Day 1. Originally Posted by orion808
