How to Turn 20 Doodads into One

[Wetdog]

Ok so Ive got an idea, hopefuly it works or my maps hit A major Hult! Lets say A village in my map contains 600+ doodads just for houses, still un furnished, Each house might have an average of 20+ wall bits to create it. So... Would it be possible to somehow import those 20+ walls into A warcraft 3 model editor and create my house in there, then import that into my map as one doodad.. Basicly turning 20 doodads into one, so as i dont hit the maximum doodad amount.

Can this be done, If so how. thanks

If there is A way could I please have a link to the program needed.

Wacraft III Model Editor ( http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/tools.php?id=s5yian ). There are actions in this program, that enable you editing models. Exact pick up of models and instant transfer into the Model Editor, forget it. You must recreate the houses in the Model Editor :/

So your saying Its possible to do this, It will just take alot of time?

If it required plenty of time to do such thing in the World Editor, probably...!

You can already exceed the doodad limit using NewGen. The only benefit to doing this would be... maybe loading time? I doubt that, even.

If you do what you're trying to do, you'd have to use 2x the number of doodads creating a pathing map for the doodad (pathing blockers). It won't decrease the number of doodads necessary.
