I was planning to added a custom set of data with many new units, heroes, abilities, doodads, and items to a set of maps for multiplayer fun. I used the map DIVIDE AND CONQUER as a base for the date and the imported files. While I know how to import the customs data (*.w3o) files, i dont know how to export the ENTIRE batch of imported models and button icons as one file for easy transfer from 1 map to the other. I was wondering, is there a way for me to transfer all my imported files as 1 batch simply loading it into another map I wish to use these files.

It would be great if anoyone could offer me an answer.

PS. I was able to do this once by opening the map with WInMPQ and dragging the W3O files and the W3I files and some other ones out, then putting them into the other map, but I dont know which of these files i need, and which i dont.

I know i can export the data files, but not the imported models and skins as a single file. I have to export them, and then reimport them all, then rename all their paths. Which is very time consumming. I windering if I could Export all my imported models and skins as a single file that PRESERVES their custom path.
