how to extract the skin of a model of gmax?

[ricardoarauj]

people I have a doubt aki, I created a sword in gmax i wanted to move her to the wc3. converted it to MDX, so far so good.
when I opened it in the War3ModelEditor was all in black and I went to search the textures of the sword to convert to BLP but not found how to extract them from the model in gmax. remembering that I colored her in the gmax, I did not use photoshop or other, so do not have separated textures.
heeeeeeelp

If you use the preset gmax color and you think you can use it in war3, I say no. You must have your texture or you must use in game textures for your sword model so yu can see your model textured in war3.

oh it's really bad :/
i don't know how to create the textures of the sword, do you know some tutorial? I only find how to edit the textures of an existing model,but i want to create my own texture of the sword.

There are good and best in game textures. Just look for them in war3.mpq or war3x.mpq
