So modding is just dead then, huh? .WAD files ruined the game.

Tons of previously moddable content is now locked behind new client.wad files that are seemingly impossible to edit.

That's hundreds of creative skins, maps, voices, textures, sound mods lost because of this change.

I, personally, am a huge fan of the old Poppy voice over (and character), and I hate how new Poppy is just Tristana 2.0 and sounds too annoyingly 'cute' and unoriginal.

Now its impossible to mod the old voice into the game, and it's fully ruined my love for my favorite character.

Really hope Riot has some plans in place to reintroduce some mod support after they fully convert the game to their new .wad files. Would be a massive shame to lose such a huge part of the creative community.

(ps, I will literally paypal someone 25$ if they can find a way to mod her old voice back into the game I'm not even joking).

So that's why Wooxy will no longer work either...

Been using that for a couple years now, but with 8.1, all seem to have been broken. RIP custom splash arts, VO mods, map mods and custom HUDs. Not to mention RIP custom login screens (why the hell did they have to go too) some time ago.

I really liked the old Quinn login, and it's a real shame to see old artwork just being buried alive.

If this is the Chinese way, then it's not cool, Tencent.

Probably Thanks to poeple modding in Riot Made skins to Not pay for them.
