Yeah sorry, did this reply during my very very brief break under lunch, so didn’t read it through entirely. Anyway… just wanted to say I’m going to a university now and gonna have an interview, hopefully it’ll go well for me and I’ll keep on doing this kind of stuff in the future.
Cross your fingers for me

I state above that your pack doesn’t rely on an application like Model Edit. However, it may be worth noting that if they’re looking for application-based model editing, they might also be looking at other ways to detect model changes (like the method used for your skins). It’s something to consider, though you might be safe to wait for detection and a warning.

Not entirely true, you should notify that at least my pack does not get this warning. As World of Raid says, it’s for those that use that tool. My pack does not use that tool. Think of it as Blizzard just recently discovered that the ‘tool’; modeleditfix.exe which is the program, is a liability, they added it to the list of the harmful programs. My pack does not fit into that category.
So, my edit have not received any complaints or warnings, and I still use it at least… just to note, I went back to default when the warning first came out, but I just can’t stand using those any longer… so I’m gonna take the risk and if they actually will do more action against modelediting I’ll take that warning and possibly 72h suspension if so (okay not any further ofc).
But if they do a change to prevent my kind of editing, I will sadly remove the pack from use.
