This zhit is just too OP. The size of those things really must be reduced. I believe similar NPCs with the same model should also be checked.

Cannot fix at current. For whatever reason, the internal base model size for infernals in later expansions is much larger, and the clientside attribute in DBCs to modify model scale is useless, as Turtle uses serverside model scale override to prevent client-modding exploits.

Sadly, there is no way to make the infernals smaller without either:

  1. opening the model up in Blender with vanilla WoW MDX plugins (good luck) and modifying not only the scale but redoing the rigging, which has already been tried by a previous contributor, or
  2. asking Turtle to remove serverside prevention for DBC model scale edits
