For the love of GOD.. HELP ME.

-____________________-
First post, I'm a nub.
I dunno what the hell I'm going to do now. I've tried EEEVERYTHING.
Including, all the tutorials I can find that might even SLIGHTLY relate to the problem.


K so, I'm more art orientated than programmy.

I want to make a map... and I'm going to start by just trying to make my custom hero. I'm trying to get him in right, by doing him first, in a freshly made, basic map.

I have the .mdx model, and it's .blp skin in the same folder on my desktop.
They work perfectly in the program Warcraft 3 Viewer v2.3c but they won't open in War3 Model Editor v1.05, it comes up with = Error: file does not exist!
I can import the mdx and blp files fine, but all the custom path files i try just DONT WOOOOORK..

..on map editor, the units come up in a green checked box, and Yellow text in bottom left corner, saying Could not load file: assasin.mdx

I dont have the custom path thing, so what do I do?
Tried everything...
Guhhh. =_=
halp plz?
How do i make my custom hero!? ;--;

(I know youve probably adressed this problem a thousand times, and are gonna shoot me for it lol.
I'm not askin for you to go to the trouble of helping solve MY problem directly just yet, but just point me in the right direction please, lol)

first of all, welcome to the Hive, second, you problem is that you custom models do not work? if so have you tried saving your map and restarting the world editor, or trying if it works ingame?

Yeah they're invisible ingame..
And yeah ive restarted.
And the models DO work.
They do work.

Hell, they work awesome in w3viewer.
And have some awesome animations too.
So i dunno what im doin wrong e-e

 

[terradont]

check texture for this /. Backslash is nono.

it's supposed to be this. \

This is one of the most common problems with textures.

 

[Squiggy]

In fact, \ is a backslash
Dunno but my imported models work if i change their extension to .mdl instead of .mdx
That's the only help i can offer..

 

[emperor_d3st]

Mdl / mdx extension are nothing to worry about. The guy ignored the thousands of importing tutorials, including the customly generated guide next to the DOWNLOAD THIS MODEL button.
So, go to your model's download page and look around carefully near the download button.

I DID NOT IGNORE THE TUTORIALS.
I tried many times, but none of them work...

 

[Ghost765]

emperor_d3st, give a little slack on this guy. im pretty sick of what looks like elitism to me.
did you but texture\ in front of the .blp file as terra and squiggy recommended? thats one of the main reasons models should work but dont.

 

[corn]

Nope, I tried all the ways that the tutorials say, and none of them worked..

=_=
le sigh..

This is hard, aha..

I must be missing one critical point or somethin...

 

[emperor_d3st]

You see. Since you don't even post a link to your model, nor your map, nor any valuable information there is no way to help you.

 

[corn]

ok here is my request, all the tutorials and every piece of information you can find on importing things link me, or soemthin, I might have missed some of the critical ones.

=_= gyuh this stuff is fustrating
