Imported Doodad won't show up

[johannesr]

I know i need to remove the war3imported and i did, but for some reason the doodad won't show up. I tried adding the model to a unit and it worked, but it doesn't on doodads, why is this? There's only a .mdx file btw.

Did you remove the number of variations to only one?

 

[johannesr]

I did that now, but it got only 1 of the imported doodads working, the others still don't work :/

 

[bounty hunter2]

In some dodoads there are readme files for importing be sure you did everything correctly.

 

[johannesr]

Nope, no readme files and the author didn't write any guidelines at his resource either. Can you explain thoroughly how to import and use a doodad? Maybe im doing something else wrong.

There's only a .mdx file btw.

And what does a .MDX file need? Right kids, a .BLP file.

And give us the link to that model resource.

Not all models need a .blp

Like he said, link to model

If they're destructables and not doodads, try toggling the "is a lightweight model" option (or it was something with "lightweight" in it I think).

 

[johannesr]

omg what just happened?! i closed my map, then tried to open again and i got this error :/

 

[Eleandor]

Try opening the map with an MPQ editor (check tools section) and removing the ashen_leaves.blp file manually...

 

[johannesr]

ashen_leaves.blp is a Blizzard texture, not a custom one and i have that terrain all over my map.

EDIT: Ah thank god, restarted my pc and its working again now. Btw that lightweight thing worked. Thanks.

You could have imported a custom texture that's corrupt and used the same path...
