Here's the thing. I inserted this model into my RagingStream map and all the textures that came with it and it works when it comes to attacking, but when I attack opponents with modified chain lightning, the lightning shows up, but the effect is absent. Can anyone help me here? Here's what I did:
BoltImpactYellow.mdx
textures\Yellow_Glow3_Darker.blp
textures\Zap1_Yellow.blp

I inserted BoltImpactYellow2.mdx with the same textures, but a different path:
war3mapImported\BoltImpactYellow2.mdx
but no result.

I opened BoltImpactYellow.mdx in Notepad. After some gibberish, I found the two(or 3) required paths:
Textures\LightningBallYellow.blp
Textures\Yellow_Glow3_Darker.blp
Textures\Zap1_Yellow.blp

Okay... I think I need to help you out:
Can anyone help here?
I set BoltImpctYellow2.mdx as an alternative.

Well, I looked at the resource in Hive, and you are correct.

Import the model and the blps, set the paths correctly, use the model in desired effect, save the map, restart the editor, and it should work just fine.
