Then some guild used that trick to change NPC models. I forget if it was to see whether an NPC was carrying certain loot (that you couldn't normally see visibly), or if it was to make a boss mob easier to click on (for racing) ... I think it was the latter ... but anyhow, since then the staff disabled model changing.

As a result, without some serious (ban-worthy) hacks, I don't think changing your dagger into a sword is possible on P99.
How do people upload higher res texture packages then? The wiki has updated elemental models you can download.

Perhaps it's just my ignorance of how it all works, but I don't see how they could possibly know the difference between a high resolution dagger change vs a change that makes it look like a spear.

Either way it's not the end of the world, just hate that damn default dagger look.

I'm not expert, but as I understand it changing textures just changes the coloring of the model. You can't change the model itself, which allows for more game breaking effects.
