Character selection texture name

As the title suggests, what are the highlight and selected textures in the character selection panel? Not the current ones though, the ones that were there until BFA (https://i.imgur.com/unGzaUA.jpg)

The Glue code for those textures haven't changed since MoP at the latest. The online repositories containing the Glue system that I'm aware of only go back that far. The classic clients use the selection texture for both selection and highlight. It's actually one texture object defined as a highlight and the show state is locked when selected.

The internal path for it is Interface\Glues\CharacterSelect\Glue-CharacterSelect-Highlight .

There aren't any repositories for the actual texture files themselves that I'm aware of, but you can extract them from the current clients with the ExportEnterfaceFiles art console command (only available from the glue screens and not the in-game session).

Nice! There's a way to change this texture color avoinding mixture?

Lua Code:
  1. local widget = CreateFrame("Button", nil, UIParent)
  2. widget:SetHighlightTexture("Interface\\Glues\\CharacterSelect\\Glue-CharacterSelect-Highlight")
  3. local ht = widget:GetHighlightTexture()
  4. ht:SetPoint("TOPLEFT", widget)
  5. ht:SetVertexColor(0, 1, 1) -- this color mixes with the texture very color
