Cannot load custom model and skin

[Kclantern1984]

I downloaded 2 different zerg drones, and I can't get either model to work https://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/models-530/zerg-drone-48275/ or https://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/models-530/zerg-drone-48275/?prev=search%3Dzerg%2520drone%26d%3Dlist%26r%3D20.
I did everything the tutorials said. I imported them (though not both at the same time. I tried one and when it didn't work I deleted it and tried the other) I set the path on the BLPs to what the pages said. But when I try to change the unit to use the shape, it just turns into the green checker cube and gives me an error message. and when I test the map, the unit's not there either. Why won't it work?

Import the texture first and set the path to Drone.blp then save the map in which you imported it.

Next import the proper model and save one more time, after that it should work fine.

Have you even tried what I said?

 

[Kclantern1984]

Yes, twice.

Well there's the test map I imported it in and it works fine, in-game too.

Take a look.

When I use your map, I see the box in the map editor, but the drone when I load the game. But if I do the same on my map, I get the box in the editor and nothing in the game. Does it matter that my map is a w3x instead of a w3m?

Well, I got it to work by exporting from your map then importing that to mine. I still don't know why I couldn't just use the download.
