Old Models

[Wik]

ok, so as i was playing i noticed that Wiz said something about old skelly models and i had to have them right away. i logged off and checked the website, downloaded the files, extracted, ran patcher, etc. so i went in game and everything looked fine, i was minding my business until i saw something that really scared me. using my superior photoshop skills, i removed names for privacy reasons .

Back of someone's head...

Looks like the face of someone from the ring

Tom Cruise shin guards?

ok i had the same thing. What i did was i ran the patch.bat thing again and it deleted the 2 files then i went to sod patcher clicked patch all in adv. then patched it dl the .txt's again i ran model patcher again and it worked. so in essence... repatch.

MAKE SURE you do NOT attempt this until you have fully ran the SoD Patcher or else you will get a lot of graphic errors.

so, i patched. ran the thing. got the funky graphics. tried timirs fix. still nothing. ive wasted like an hour with this.. dunno why it isnt working... and because i know someone will say to try it again, ive tried atleast 6-7 times.

What i did just a little while ago was delete the files and patch back to Live. Then i ran the SoD patcher again and let it run through patching everything that it needed to (which after patching to live, it needed to patch a lot). I logged into SoD and the graphics were back to normal. Even on my other characters that don't have the updated graphics from the checklist. Then i ran the models_install.bat file again and logged in, and all the graphics became screwed up again. Please tell me what i'm doing wrong if you know. Also note that the only characters that don't look messed up are halflings because i have them checked on the checklist.

I wonder if this would make the difference. Have you tried checking all races and seeing if that fixes the graphical issues (just remember to hit enter and not next). I haven't been home to test this myself but strikes me as curious.

Nice, it worked. Just checked it all, then what I did was load to char select and go back to uncheck it all. Fixed my texture problem.

So far, my only problem has been that the old wolves are really small in size. Anyone have a fix for that?

A fix is coming, it's a serverside thing.

yeah, after that all i did was check the characters i wanted upgraded graphics on (halflings) and it all works fine.

I'm having the same problem, but it's for all movable objects (mobs i guess). The weird thing is, I did not even patch the old models in. I just ran the sod patcher after a month's absense. This is what i see:

Dragons look like martha stewart walked in and painted their entire anatomy different patterns. Plad for the wings, egg shell white for the legs, pink with blue poka dots for the head, the main body on the top half is a peacock, while the lower half is hodgepodge of the aforementioned color patterns.

The rats in DN are snow white with a red head, and the spiders look normal, but their thorax is pure white. That's the only thing I noticed because I could only play a couple minutes yesterday.
