FREQUENT ISSUES

Magos' Model Editor
If a.) the model/s present an error regarding a ribbon emitter upon opening, or b.) the models go blank in-game after editing them in Magos', use MdlxConv to convert the uncorrupted file to mdl, edit the model as you wish, and then convert back to mdx before importing.

In-Game
If models with omnilights light up the whole map after conversion, make sure you're using version 1.04 of MdlxConv.

I cannot succeed to make this work in Reforged. AddSpecialEffect does not show the model (as many other models including some standard ones with no detected animations in WE, but if I create a unit with this model it is shown correctly. Any help is appreciated.
