[Import] Choosing the model path without actual import in map file store.

[TheJay]

Hello to everybody!

So, I copied all "import" to warcraft III directory, specified a path for it, like:
Import\mapname\BarrensStonesB\[Barrens Stone (b) ]_ruins1.mdl

In World Editor I can view all models, but when I load my map in wc3 - all I see is green-black cubes.

What's the problem?
I've tried to do the same thing like 4-5 years ago and it worked, but I have no clue why now it just don't.
First I thought that I need to install my wc3 properly, but installation didn't help. (

Hope somebody will help me!

Edit: Anybody?

Check variations count in the Object Editor (set them to 0 if needed) and Has Lightweight Model -> play with that boolean.

Didn't help.

check the model path in the unit u set the model for, it might be incorrect

 

[TheJay]

Can't be incorrect, since models appear in WE.

Can you give us more details? Models generally don't need paths, but the texture files do. I recommend you post the map so people can see whether it shows up for them.

Also make sure that your objects in the object editor are assigned to the appropriate model.

You need to merge the Import folder with the existing one in your wc3 directory.
