War3 model editor magos ---small question

[aztec11us]

hello all

i got the warcraft 3 magos model editor, to add the heroic glow to an Owlbeast

in 5 min, i managed to go through all steps to add a glo to an Owlbeast mdx model and it looks awesome!

but...one stupid question --- how do i make it so the model appears in the list of units in War3 ?

i do NOT want to over-write the old, standard owlbeast model !

i want the new OwlbeastHero model to be added into the database, alongside the rest !

the magos editor seems to lack the option !

how do i save the new model, so it can be used with the normal editor, like any other unit?

i ve seenthe magos tutorials pages with those tools...but when i click them, i m taken to a site where i m basicly told ,,sorry pal...we re closed'' !!!

thank you

that isn't possible, that would be altering Blizzard's mpq, just save it on your computer.

unless you mean the world editor, which isn't a modelling problem, just duplicate the unit by copying and pasting, and add the glow to the duplicate

thank you!

i managed to get the model into the war3 standard editor...and it works beautifully

BUT.....in the place where one normalyy sees a talking portrait...i see the entire unit's body

how do i attach the regular talking portrait of the owlkin ?

thanks

You have to export it from the war3.mpq, you can do with Magos
Window -> MPQ-Browser
File -> war3.mpq
Units/Critters/Owlbeast/Owlbeast_Portrait.mdx
(or something like that)
