Magoc Model Editor.
With that tool, solving 1 + 2 is so easy. Run Magos, go File -> Open your model. Now click on 'Windows' menu on editor's taskbar and head ot 'Textures'. There, all the textures used by given model are listed up, additionaly paths of each are shown too.

Deleting animation? Windows -> Sequence manager. Right click animation you want to be removed and do 'Remove'.

About last point, what you want to be displayed exactly?

i guess any DDS + a way to display damage (floating text, game text, etc) will do 3 just fine.

Most of floating text requires several actions.

• Then - Actions
  • Floating Text - Create floating text that reads (Damage dealt) above Damaged_Unit with Z offset 0.00, using font size 9.00, color (100.00%, 0%, 0%), and 0.00% transparency
  • Floating Text - Set the velocity of (Last created floating text) to 64.00 towards 90.00 degrees
  • Floating Text - Change (Last created floating text): Disable permanence
  • Floating Text - Change the fading age of (Last created floating text) to 1.00 seconds
  • Floating Text - Change the lifespan of (Last created floating text) to 2.00 seconds

BTW; display healing is a bit harder, but possible.

For ex: When I hit a baddie with a spell, I need the damage to float upon his head, and same for him.

Also I need to know how to make a trigger so when I cast a spell it says it's name..

Use a Damage Detection System, like Weep's GDD. To display spell names, damage, etc., create a floating text the way I showed you in the trigger example, in the last post. Just change the displayed text, and above which unit.

Displaying damage taken - see test maps here and here. To let your casts display spell's name just use floating text actions (shown above) with text filled with: (Name of (Ability being cast)).
It's funcion found in filter window after clicking on highlighted "message" keyword in Create Floating Text action window (while in 'message' filter scroll to Ability - Name).
(Ability being cast) can be replaced with any ability found in Object editor.
