How to color already existing models

[Illidan Kazama]

hi,i wanna edit a flame so that it's purple for example but because it already exist it's not possible, or another case, when i import a flame model i can't edit the flame and i tried already to make them as another doodad but models from doodads and abilities normaly don't work to recolor

You can either make a dummy unit and change the color
OR
if the flame uses custom textures edit the texture.

Are you talking about the fire doodad? I tried to make this too when i was beggining. The fire itself is not a model, it's a particle emitter. Extract it from the .mpq, open in magos, edit the colors of the emitter. It's very easy, trust me. Then just import it

You can try changing the colours in the object editor.
When youve selected the Fire.. in the Art part of the bits you can edit.. you can change the colours red green and blue.

have a fiddle with them

That's exactly what i tried. I don't think it works with the fire particle emitter

the problem is magos model editor doesn't work for me

Why?
i've been busy that week, but i think that by saturday i may stay at home then i can do it for you. But you should really get Mago's working. It's a must.
