UPDATE- Ok, before reading anything below, I am going to explain simpler what I am requesting right now. I am requesting a large building using current models in warcraft glued together basically that form a big building and make the inside of it hollow so there isnt any excess walls or skins/models sticking out inside the building. Here is an example of what I am requesting. It doesn't have to be exact, but it is about what I am looking for.

The red circles represent where I could possibly make open windows and doors, but im not sure if that has to do with models or skins.

If you have any questions dont hesitate to ask ^_^

Thanks

sorry, no to what? it cannot be done in map editor because upon entering a building, if you stuck a bunch of buildings together in editor you have models all over the inside of the building and its a cluster mess and you have walls flashing in and out. Keep in mind this is a first person view cam. I am attempting to do it myself, but to be honest, i havent a clue what I am doing in gmax.

what I meant by interior is that you can simply walk inside the model and it wont disappear, so you would be seeing the hollow inside of the model, and the skin/skins surrounding it. I couldnt manage to remove all the excess walls and building pieces.

Here is my first model I have ever done so I don't know if its really messed up or not, I am using GMAX right now. I dont have a clue how to get it to mdx though. The model is still in separate pieces and would need to be somehow formed together for the most part and again completely hollow inside, meaning the shell of the model is what you see on the outside, no pieces of each model inside each other.

Here is what I made, the death animation is a bit messed up but itll have to do, but it needs the editing above if possible. Or if it would be easier, you can just remake it now that you would have a better idea what I am trying to do. The building construction is near exactly how I was trying to make it look. BTW, roof appears missing on tavern but im pretty sure its really there once you use it ingame.

Had to put it on a fileshare, can't attach in forum if its GMAX:
