just a 2 simple quick question

1. I have a skin (blp file) how to make a mdx file for it?

2. i have mdx file how to make a blp file for it? (not making i mean putting the texture attach to the model to a blp file)

with War3ModelEditor:
1.open Windows->Texture Manager

2. right click on the new window

3.1 select: create empty and then right click on the new texture(Replaceable ID 0) and then select edit to change it to team color or team glow
3.2 select import to add a custom texture for model
3.3 If you want to use ingame texture you will have to do the following:
3.3.1 open: Windows->MPQ Browser
3.3.2 open a MPQ under "file"
3.3.3 search for the texture you want to use. They are usually in the model fie. If this is not the case you will habe to open the "Textures" folder because the texture you are searching for is used on more than one model then and is placed there.
After you found
3.3.4 right-click on the texture and select: Use as Texture

4. open Windows->Material Manager to put the texture to a geoset of your model

to question 1: you cannot make a mdx file out of a blp fine. YOu would have to add the blp file to a plane model to make it exactly look like the texture file.(blp and mdx are 2 completely diffferent things)
and to question 2: https://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/1163867-post2.html
