I know this is a stupid question, and is probably posted somwhere else on this website, but after three days of searching, I can not find it. How do you load models downloaded from this site to the WC3 world editor? I have expiremented, but I can not seem to figure it out.

You should seek a tut for google or here but since you ~said~ you looked for 3 days -.-.
Download file, right clickit hit extract and youl get a folder (usualy named after the model) now remember where that folder is (putting it on your desktop works :p) open world editor. Go to import manager hit import. it will open up a window similart to when your saving a file. Find the folder you extracted, open it, and there shud be files about the model into it, double click one and it will put it into the import manager (do this to all of them in the folder) then double click them in the import manage and change the path it gives you (like warcraft3/imported/units/jaina or something like that) and change it to either a path the creator gave you where you downloaded it or change it from example- warcraft3/imported/units/jaina to units/jaina, basicaly remove the warcraft3imported part. now save the map close WE then open it. Click a unit in object editor, find Model when looking in art in its info. Then there should be a little button to click that says imoported and you can scroll through your imported models. Hope that helps!

Well, it worked well untill the end, when I tried to place a downloaded unit. It said "Could not load file:(Name of unit), and when I tested the map, they showed up as shadows. What did I do wrong?
