WoW Console Export Interface Files Code and Art

This programs actually works by opening the MQP files.

Recently I started trying to search how AddOns work and how to create one and I'm following a serie of videos (https://youtu.be/0Z3b0SJuvI0?t=563) but there's a part where it shows how to export the interface code and art of blizz on the recent patch, not on the 1.12 so I get an error when using the wow console with this:

Code: Select all

exportInterfaceFiles code
exportInterfaceFiles art

it shows "Unknown command" so I searched and I found a threat (http://www.wowinterface.com/forums/show ... hp?t=50177) where I found out this more important link of the wiki page about it (http://wow.gamepedia.com/Viewing_Blizza ... rface_code) and it says the command was added on patch 4.0.

The real question is: Is there any older command to export the server Nostalrius's interface code and art so that I can learn more about addons and start creating something more than printing on the chat

P.S.: I found a way to post an image of my screen with the console: http://s15.postimg.org/ul41yv8zv/Wo_W_Console_Error.png
Edit: Another P.S.: If I can't find a way or there's not one, I guess I will have to search it online but I'm afraid it will be different because it will not be from patch 1.12.

Well, I think I found a way to see the content online...

Code: https://github.com/Gethe/wow-ui-source
Art: https://github.com/Gethe/wow-ui-textures

Old Code (more important): https://www.townlong-yak.com/framexml/1.1.2


EDIT: There's no Old Art Link because I didn't found one, to show you what I mean see this for example:
https://github.com/Gethe/wow-ui-texture ... dMesa1.PNG
It's a part of the map of Camp Narache (Tauren's home), as you can see it's not the actuall map from the nostalrius version 1.12 but from the retail (I don't know the patch...) so yhe, just to explain that.
(I'm still pretty impressive by the fact that this thing was kind of hidden for me and I didn't knowed about it yesterday. It's pretty cool to see the artwork and the code to if I figure out how to implement it easier

There are 2 programs i use for that:

1. MyWarCraftStudio 0.9 for opening the MPQ files - they contain models, graphics, sounds and data
it gives you the paths to graphics and you can save items to edit them in gimp or photoshop

here an example: http://i.imgur.com/ueIgWdj.png

2. WoW UI Designer 1.1.110 for opening FrameXML - this important, since you have fully read-access to the XML UI elements, templates etc. AND the lua scriptfiles. Thats where you can see how the blizzard frames work (and copy the function) - pretty much every function is global, you have fully access with your addons to templates, functions and frame elements...you can even "hook" the global functions and overwrite them to a custom function!

here an example: http://i.imgur.com/LaLsB71.png
you can even see a preview render: http://i.imgur.com/GvZh2Sd.png

also you can make addons and UI elements(XML based) with this program, there is much overhead thou
