How to import Chrono Magician (Yugioh, fan made)

Introduction

This is an automatically generated tutorial. It will guide you through the process of importing the model Chrono Magician (Yugioh, fan made) of the bundle Chrono Magician (Yugioh, fan made). Please note that all the screenshots in this tutorial were made using a Mac, however it should be no problem to interpret what is equivalent on a Windows or Linux machine.

Extract and Access

I am assuming that you have already downloaded the file Chrono Magician (Yugioh fan made).zip and know where it is located on your hard drive. The file is compressed as a zip archive. Most modern operating systems allow you to unzip the archive by double clicking it and dragging the contents out to the desktop (or any other place).

When you have extracted the archive, it should look like this:

Chrono Magician (Yugioh fan made)
chrono_magician_face.blp
chrono_magician_hair.blp
chrono_magician_robe2.blp
chrono_magician_robe.blp
Chrono Magician.mdx

Open World Editor and click Module -> Import Manager:

This is the Import Manager. From here you can add and remove custom files from your map file:

Importing Chrono Magician.mdx

Now Click the "Import File" Button:

Next select 'Chrono Magician.mdx' in the folder which you extracted from the zip archive:

Chrono Magician (Yugioh fan made)
Chrono Magician.mdx
chrono_magician_face.blp
chrono_magician_hair.blp
chrono_magician_robe.blp
chrono_magician_robe2.blp

The file has been properly added to the map archive:

Chrono Magician.mdx
Model
1,119
war3mapimported/Chrono Magician.mdx

Done, you have imported the file Chrono Magician.mdx.

Importing chrono_magician_face.blp

Now Click the "Import File" Button:

chrono_magician_hair.blp
chrono_magician_robe.blp
chrono_magician_robe2.blp

As you see, the field "Full Path" starts with something like "war3mapimported/". But most models do not look for their assets in that directory. The assets need to be in a specific location in order for the model to find them. Therefore, you will have to change the "Full Path" to what the model looks for. You can find the required paths in the readme.txt and also on this page.
