I downloaded the model and texture/image from that link there and, this is what I did:

1: Went to link
http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/models-530/branch-49481/?prev=d%3Dlist%26r%3D20%26c%3D16%26t%3D3

2: Downloaded the file (got both files inside)

3: Opened it up

4: dragged the files onto desktop

5: Imported them into my map
(I made a new map sized 32 32 the rest is normal then pushed enter)

6: Made a new Ironwood Branch

7: Changed the model and image / texture to:

7A: Texture: war3mapImported\Branch.blp

7B: Model: war3mapImported\branch.mdx

8: Inserted item into map

It comes up blank (green square for model a D O D A D with a ?mark in the middle of it) :vw_wtf: any ideas on how to fix this?:goblin_wtf::ogre_rage:
 
The model works perfectly. Another thing to make this work is to delete war3mapImported in both the model and the skin. Bind the model to any item you'd like. Please see the image below.

I deleted the war3imported part, but just to make sure, how do I do it?

Yea, its still not working, you want me to give you the map, so you can work the model?

yeh, did that, still not working though :goblin_cry:

This is wierd, i restarted W/E and it came up with the Texture/Image...?
 
The problem lies in this block:
attachment.php

The first Bitmap there is : Objects\InventoryItems\branch\Branch.blp which should not be because the model uses a custom texture. Other words before "Branch.blp" should be deleted just like as shown in the image.

These are what you should do:

1. First you need to convert the model to mdl file using mdlx converter.
2. Second, open the .mdl file in notepad.
3. Edit the block as shown in the image. Save it.
4. Covert the edited .mdl file to .mdx using mdlx converter.
5. You are done and ready to import the model to the World Editor.
I can do this, but I want you to do the task for knowledge.

Ok, its a .BMP and not allowing me, nevermind found out how, gah still not allowing me to!!!!!!!!!!

Let me just say this:

It has this page thingy 1/3 of the box, then a tail coming from the north heeading south (at the end of the tail has fur) THEN theirs a ball type thing half way between the end of the tail

Ok, fixed it by making the file NOT the Branch.BLP, so I used warcraft's BLP

May I mention, Nice Models, used a few of yours :D
