The character create screens are located in the World of Warcraft files under Interface/Glues/Models. Once you find the one that you want you need to convert it via any Legion to Wotlk converter (this is what most people use: https://model-changing.net/files/file/62-legion-wotlk-multi-converter/). In terms of switching the models that are used you can do this in the client files of your server under Interface/GlueXML/GlueParent.lua. If you read how blizzard changes their backgrounds in the code there you only need to switch out a few things in order to do what you want.

OK so I have been trying to do the above, to no avail. I used CASC explorer to get the whole UI_Gnome and UI_Troll directories. I drag the .m2 file over to the linked multi-converter and click the Fix button. After this, I copy to my 335a installation (Interface/GLUES/Models - with the rest of the UIs) and then when I change the code in GlueParent.lua to load the proper one I get a blue and white  cube. Any advice?

Been looking at random tutorials for 2 days trying to figure this one out.  Thanks!

 

P.S. I have checked for proper path file names, etc. This isn't the problem. Its the M2 model, I'm quite sure of it!

Blah, OK so for those trying to figure this out, I was unable to get it to work (even with a patched .exe) if I was placing the model files into the Wow directory (i.e. Interface/GLUES/Models/UI*) but it you put the same files into an MPQ patch it works fine.

Thanks! And may it help others.
