the BFD boss has changed skins
edit: BUT there is his son, pahboo-ra, behind him who looks just like the live version
and aku'mai has a new model that makes him untamable. he now looks like a much bluer version of the arcane head on the fight megaera.

I like the new ghamoo, but I hope the old one stays the same if you've tamed it

Not likely but you can still get the model. If you tamed ghamoo, it shares Ghamoo's ID.Vetiver wrote:I like the new ghamoo, but I hope the old one stays the same if you've tamed it
Re: Ghamoo-Ra and aku'mai change
Unfortunately I couldn't get the NPC ID macro to work in WoD. I'm not sure what needs to be changed to fix it. Are you certain he's the same ID?Junrei wrote:Not likely but you can still get the model.

Ghamoo's new skin is the "weird" green-black dragon turtle skin. The reason I call it that is that it doesn't have the same texture patterning as all the other dragon turtles and on the model it kind of looks like the shell marks are running the wrong way. It's not completely wrong, but there are some edges etc. that just don't look 100% right either. My guess is that skin was from an early experiment in creating the new turtle model and they never deleted it.

Poor Aku'mai looks a bit weird, too. A single purple hydra head, poking out of a tiny puddle. It kind of reminds me of this:

Re: Ghamoo-Ra and aku'mai change
Yup. I'd assume just like when Olm got changed. Anyone who had him got the new skin. ID stays the same.Wain wrote:Unfortunately I couldn't get the NPC ID macro to work in WoD.
