Well, guys. I wanted to make team-colored icons. Since the command button itself is a model, I could change its material to contain a team-colored layer so that alphaed icons could appear team-colored. I tried to find the model for the command button with Magos, Viewer and PowerMPQ but it appears to be hidden, just like the car models from Azeroth Grand Prix. Then I opened a map in WE and under Advanced - Game Interface found the name and path of the model -
Code:
UI\Buttons\BTNCommand\BTNCommand.mdl
However, I cannot export the model and in the UI\Buttons\ directory in the MPQ it does not show up.

Any advice or information about this matter will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

EDIT:

Anytime I try to set a unit(or doodad)'s model file to this model (in order to see its animations and create a similar model) WE crashes with the following message:
