Make custom pets

[Noiz]

Hi there! How are you? I had an Idea, I'm going to open a new server with some friends and will use 1.11 but we had not chosen the repack we will use, the real thing of this topic is that I tought that would be a great idea if you can make Custom Pets, but there is a thing that I cant' make...

Firstly I pick the Item [item 8488] name=Cat Carrier (Silver Tabby) as an example...

[item 8488]
name=Cat Carrier (Silver Tabby)
class=15
quality=1
buyprice=4000
sellprice=1000
bonding=3
classes=0000 //All Classes
level=20
material=-1
model=20629
races=0000 //All Races
spell=10678 0 0 -1 0 -1
stackable=1

so, spell=10678 0 0 -1 0 -1 makes reference to the spell that summons the cat, my idea was changing this code into a custom one to make, for examle, a Kobold Pet.

My first problems comes across when I try to open Spells.DBC, I cant open it with notepad, so What can I do to modify it?

It is suposed to find [spell 10678] name=Summon Silver Tabby As marked in Spellcost, so, we must copy at the bottom [spell 55555] name=Summon Kobold and we must find the Kobold Model (Dont know what number is it)

and then modify Spells.dbc and create a new spell to link it with [spell 55555] and then with our new object

[item 999999]
name=Kobold Summoning Stone
class=15
quality=1
buyprice=4000
sellprice=1000
bonding=3
classes=0000 //All Classes
level=20
material=-1
model=21072 // Guardian Stone model
races=0000 //All Races
spell=55555 0 0 -1 0 -1
stackable=1

so, can someone help me with the middle steps? how can I create the new spell to summon a Kobold?

There is a tool to convert DBCs to .CSV format. Get that here, then get CSVed. After adding your spell with CSVed, convert the .csv back to DBC, then put it in "World of Warcraft\Data\DBFilesClient\", or put it into a custom patch MPQ.

Thanks Yamachi,

I've been testing all the afternoon the DBC Editor and other tools and I can't understand how to make it, would anyone mind to explain hoy to make a custom spell editing DBC to a simple mind like mine!
