First of all, next time repost your question in the same post. That way it doesn't 'clog up' the forum and people don't have to refer back to your original post for the answer.

To import skins/icons/models into the World Editor do the following:
1) Import the skin/icon/model by using the Import Manager in the World Editor. You can access it by clicking the icon of a arrow going into a paper in the toolbar.

2) Right-click the imported file and click Modify File Properties.

3) Click the checkbox by Use Custom Path and change the filepath in the box above to the one specified (when you download a skin/icon/model from this site it tells you the proper path on the preview screen with the link you're downloading from).

4) If it's a model, go into the Object Editor and specify the Imported File on the unit you want it to be on by Art - Model. If it's an icon do the same thing, just specify it by Art - Icon.

5) Save your map and exit the World Editor. Turn it on again and you should see the skin/icon/model on the unit.

I hope I'm making myself more clear this time.

Ok, I think I get it, but Im having trouble in some points.

Go find a model you like. Download it. Look on the page for the path, like for the militia archer (I got this one working, so you try it: http://www.wc3sear.ch/index.php?p=Models&ID=149&sid=36480220fadea1f9781a956996ce9e63 )
the path would be: units\Human\Militia\PeasantMilitia.blp
So, you go to import manager, import the MODEL (not the icon, that is seperate. make sure it says model under type). Then, change the path to what I said.
When you go into the object editor, that will now be a choice (under, imported). Apply that to a unit, restart world editor and it should work.


Now, if anyone can help ME, i would be gratefull. Some models, say, the pirate cannon, have a list of a bunch of skins. How do you use them all on one model? Im really confused on that.

hmm

I know....I sometimes get black blobs in the actual game, but, they look the way they are supposed to in the world editor. I also cannot get nerzhul arthas to work.

Also, is there any way to get the correct path, because I downloaded it from a different site that doesn't have the pathways.

Thanks if anyone is willing to help

P.S. I hate stupid posts....please only post if you are going to help
