jm2converter's Introduction

jM2converter 1.0.8b-beta

World of Warcraft Universal Model Converter.
Works using the jM2lib project. Still early prototype.

##Usage (example with Frog.m2) : This is a Java command-line tool.
You may need to install Java : Install Java
And setup paths for your environment : PATH and CLASSPATH

Command line : java -jar jm2converter.jar -in "Frog.m2" -out "FrogConverted.m2" <OPTIONS>

##Usage with whole folders(only in oppahansi's version)

Command line : java -jar jm2converter.jar -in "path/to/inputFolder/" -out "path/to/outputfolder/" <OPTIONS>

The "/" or "" at the end of paths is important. New option is -f for whole folders. Only in oppahansi's version.

Type java -jar jm2converter.jar to get a list of all converting options and two examples ;)

Beware, when you retroport a model, you always lose some data (the newer client features) and you won't be able to get them back if you up convert it back later.
The Legion support is still changing. The game is still in Beta so the M2 format changes. Right now it should work up to build 20810.

##Download : MediaFire link

##What's yet to be implemented :

BC => LK up-conversion.
MDX <=> Classic conversion (needs MDX support in jM2lib first)

##Known issues :

Ribbons are sometimes funky.
Colors may go weird, like yellow instead of purple. Report new ones in the GitHub issue tracker !
Some models with shaders, like FandralFireCat, are not properly displayed in old clients.
