Portrait Missing from World Editor

[bobbuttons]

Hi,
When importing custom models onto the world editor, in the object editor there is no category for the portrait file. It has Icon and model file, but none for the portrait. I know what it should look like from seeing importing tutorials, but my editor doesn't seem to have the category. Is there any way of fixing this?

Thanks

You must import a separate portrait model. It has to have a camera. If the model's name is Model.mdx, the portrait's mane must be Model_portrait.mdx, so it can be recognized as a portrait.

The problem is, is that I have the portrait files, just nowhere to import them, there's no "Art- Model Portrait" section on my editor. Is there a way to fix this?

No, and you don't need to. Just import both models with the same path.

Thanks!
Works perfectly- thanks for your time and help- it's much appreciated!

Hello. I got the same problem, but I don't quite follow. What do you mean by 'importing both models with same path'?

Thanks in advance.

I mean: Import the model with the path:

whatever.mdx

and its portrait with:

whatever_portrait.mdx.

or for example:

units\orc\Grunt\whatever.mdx
units\orc\Grunt\whatever_portrait.mdx
Instead of for example:

units\creeps\whatever.mdx

and

units\human\Rifleman\whatever_portrait.mdx
