WoW Model Viewer

From WoWWiki

(Redirected from WMV)

WoW Model Viewer is a program that allows users to see all the models for characters, armor, weapons, monsters, and spell graphics in the game files. Additionally, it enables people to take screenshots, add backgrounds, and add weapons/armor to a character of one's choice.

The latest version (v0.5.09d) by the original author John Steele (aka Darjk) was released on May 15th, 2008. With this version, all files up to Patch 2.4.2 can be viewed.

Unfortunately, that version is not usable due to Patch 3.0.2 and Steele has abandoned the project, not being able to return to it until 2010.

Unofficial version

On September 5th, 2009 Chuanhsing posted a new version to not only work after 3.2.0, but with Windows Vista as well. It also comes with a much desired search option. See wowmodelviewer.org for more information.

Machinima

WMVs are widely used by machinimists with the "blue- (or green-)screen-effect", because there are less limits there than in the real game.
