I have deprotected a certain map and then I exported the models that i want from it.
The problem is when i try to import the model to my own map, the model wont show.
I have read and follow this tutorial ( http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/f282/how-import-custom-models-32237/ ) but to no avail my problem still insist can someone point me to the right direction.

I'm a newbie to this so this might sound a little bit stupid.

I can import models from an ordinary download from a website to my map but with this one gives me head ache. I raise my hand already so I decided to just ask. I think I've done my part searching for the answer but it was still a failure so please some one give me a hand....

Does your model include custom skin? If so, make sure that you change it's path to the correct one. Look what path it has in that map, and just copy 'n' paste it into your own map.

Oopssss I didn't know that, anyway thanks for the info.


But Please men just this once I just really like that one model because it would be perfect for my map....

And if i got around it with your help I will surely give credit for whatever help you can give to me...

I try to view it in Warcraft Viewer (Ctrl+I) but it shows that the model doesnt have attachement.. what can be done to make it appear in my map please please please.......

If the model works in that map then it's not problem with the model.
Maybe, if that map has a lot of imports, you didn't export all parts of the model... check that, otherwise I have no idea what the problem is...

And remember to give credit to the person who made the model...

Try to open the model with model editor and it will notify which skins it lacks with exact path.


Like I have said in my last post, I have tried to use third party programs... with the guide that was posted here.

If you would like i can give you the model so you can try and do what i can't accomplish and if you do then can you give me the step to do.. So I can do it on my own...
