Thanks. When i decided to create these models, i was thinking of fixing inconsistencies in the campaigns as wll as add unique models for each faction according to history of Warcraft universe. For example, Wrath of the Lich King, Burning Crusade, Shadowlands, etc.

Simple but great, it'll be very useful, thanks for sharing your work.

From afar, the changes look simple, but a lot of work has been done there, a good set, quite useful, keep up the good work

Fantastic set of doodads, definitely useful!

Great, but one last detail.
Is it possible to have team colored crystal variants for each models ?

I will try but some models use in-game textures that don't have Team Color, for example the Demon Crystal and in others it is not noticeable the change of color.

I really like the fact you made Night Elf one moon-shaped!

Sick!

Interesting idea and good execution, however there are issues with all models like these:

Sanity Test

Mostly the unused tracks, missing sequences and some extents are an issue. Please fix these.

How can I fix these details?.
I'm still new but I use Retera Model Studio and War 3 Model Editor, so is there a tutorial for that?.

I tried to look for some reference on how to edit models so that they were approved or simple but I can't find anything.

For one you can use Sanity Test to see what issues, errors and unneeded things the models have. This is only a sanity/logic checker and does not fix things.
For removing the unneeded tracks and similar you can use MDLX Optimizer . Just drop an mdx file onto it and it can give you an optimized version back.
For the rest you probably have to use notepad or similar text editing programs. You have to convert the models to mdl format first.
Just see what sanity checker tells you what the issues are and fix the issues.

Thanks

Hey General Frank, i update the Holy Crystal Shield using the Model Optimizer and Converter, since I did not find MDLX Optimizer.

The MDLX optimizer is that blank page. Please re-read my earlier post what you have to do.

Simple texture and material edits, but probably useful for a handful of people and their maps.

It doesn't show up in the model preview and, I dont think thats a good sign.

Barbafire · Jan 2, 2026

I was searching for other model, and bumped into this pack.

I'd like to say that it is awesome, great work. They are very thematic in my opinion, and can be more than useful.

not sure why this resource hasn't been checked properly, but these models are broken. they don't show up in the editor nor in-game, unless you re-convert them to mdx via MDLX converter. while this fixes the issue for Lamp models, Shield models have broken rune positions and don't have them billboarded, despite what's shown on screenshots and in 3D viewer/Sanity Tester. this model pack is sick, but unfortunately the author hasn't been online since nov 2025, so it's a shame these won't be fixed.

When last I spoke to the author, their computer was completely dead. So it's up to someone else to fix these, unfortunately. I just hope someone adds Teamcolor to these, because if they did that'd be a lifesaver.
