War3 Model Editor Problem

[Diablo(666)]

Hi,

i have a problem with the war3 model editor!
If i open my model i just get the Error: The file is not a BLP texture!
What is wrong there? I got the right Path and everything and the texture IS a .blp ! I converted it from a .png to .blp with wowimage.
But if I try to load a downloaded model it works correctly...
Can you help me plz? I don't know what's wrong with my textures...

Just attach it to your post. I hate rapidshare.....

If you have to put it in a zip file and upload that!

I've never heard of that tool, but I'll have you know that wow uses a different blp type then wc3. They blp types can easily be converted from one to the other but they don't use the same...

Ahh, i need a tool for wc3 .blp's then thanks. I thought they got the same...
But i can't find a converter for .png to wc3 .blp

Use a normal converter (like Irfan view, google it) to convert .png to .tga, Tga -> wc3 blps are easy to find. (Tools section)

Isn't .tga loosing some special effects that .png got? Like channels.
Got it now.. Thanks!

Nah, the only format good enough to beat TGA is PSD that too because it supports layers.
