Hello People -Need Help

I need help!

I don't know how to apply models into units.

I know somethings like Object Editor/Units/ Whatever unit you want /ART-Model File and you choose the model you imported, but sometimes this doesn't work and I don't understand *.blp and *.mdx and *.mdl.

Can someone tell me how to apply model files into units?

If you mean doing things such as making a unit hold a model of a weapon etc, then read this.

No I didn't actually and I found out how to do that anyway. Its a useless thread I started when I first became a member. Thanks anyway!

You import models with .mdx but they show ingame as .mdl which is correct. Skins are .blp, and skins are textures that you apply to a certain model. If you want a certain unit to have imported model,1. Open World Editor ; 2. Import the model + with the correct skin path (if there is a custom skin) ; 3. Save ; 4. Open Object Editor, choose a Unit for which you want to replace its model ; 5. Find "Art - Model File" ; 6. Double Click on it and then search for your imported model under "Import" ; 7. After you did that, save and... ; 8. Done!
