What for MPQ extraction programs do you mean? Sth. linke the Image_Extractor or what?

The thing with character models is that they have every single geoset immagenable on them, thus they don't really convert over very well

So you mean, that I can't extract WoW Models from the WoW Model viewer and convert the WoW Textures with the WC3_Image_extractor!?

Eh, Model View has an extraction function, but it extracts to .3ds or something

Honestly, I think there might be an upgraded MyWarcraftStudio floating around somewhere, which might be able to open after patch 1.10

The WoW Modelviewer can export a model in the formats of:

-> Wavefront *.obj
-> lightwave *.lwo
-> Milkshape 3D *.ms3d
-> 3D Studio Max *.3ds

Mecheon...I think here you'll find this MyWarcraftStudio that you mean.

@ Serbianbeast,

you said that you need Models from the viewer...
