MPQ Editing is not endorsed by Teamliquid nor is it recommended as Blizzard actively takes steps to stop and prevent it.

Be warned and do this at your own peril.

Going to start a poll for all the people still unsure about doing this to reassure them that it's more than safe. If you're going to say banned / suspended, at least provide proof of an email so we know it wasn't something else you were banned for, else your vote is meaningless.

Poll: Have you been banned for MPQEditing?

No (94)
 
87%

Banned (11)
 
10%

Suspended (3)
 
3%

108 total votes

Your vote: Have you been banned for MPQEditing?

(Vote): No
(Vote): Suspended
(Vote): Banned

The point isn't whether or not anyone has been banned. It is that blizzard has clearly said "mpq editing will get you banned". There is a way to do this without mpq editing, you people should really start using it.

I've been using this for a long time and I had no problems. I'm pretty sure that if you give them no reason to check your MPQ they won't and will not care.
Try another route paperboy.

While he claims it's not in the license agreement, it does say that they retain the right to ban anyone for any reason. This will be just as detectable as mpqediting itself. If they want to ban you for it, they will.

And I thought he was referring to Existor's posts about the license agreement, since I haven't mentioned it.

Neither does directly editing mpqs to add pretty pictures. Weather the files are directly or indirectly edited via the folder prioritising method you came up with, I think the chances of being banned for this are equally low.

Also, whoever just voted that they got suspended, give proof.

It would be nice if blizz released a list of files that must not be changed and everything else was free game.

I run on a mac. I use MPQ Extractor to view/replace the dds files.

When I extract the battle.net.mpq, a folder gets created (Battle.net), and this is where the "Shared" Folder is located. So far so good.

I replace the dds file I want. Check.

But then, how do I turn the folder that was created, back into the battle.net.mpq file?
I feel like I used to be smarter....but that's when I knew less.

No extracting takes place in this process. Just open the mpq file and replace the target dds with your desired one. Don't extract anything.

Or use Existors new method here

If I get the time, I'll have a go, but that image is too small.

When you model edit it only affects what you see yourself.

Is this how the Thor looked like?
