What can i use in the original game?

I already understand that in the editor you can't mix the new models with the old, but is their a way to get the new king of the elves Anasterian Sunstrider in a old map that uses old models? can i use a map that has any of the new models in it in original mode?

Using either SD or HD assets in the respective opposite environment would require you to import them as a custom asset as far as I know. I have seen custom assets designed for classic graphics work in HD, but have not yet seen it work the other way around.

However, it is in the realm of possibility that you can import an HD asset as long as it is already compatible or made to be compatible (for example, HD uses a different lightning system).

edit: apparently you can force classic models in reforged by appending this to the model path:
war3.w3mod:buildings\orc\TaurenTotem\TaurenTotem

I couldn't find a way to do it the other way around.

Makes sense, Reforged models probably have different model details to work with the lighting system. Others would need to comment, I'm not an expert here.
