Where do you put loose files in Warcraft 3 Patch 1.32.8?

[Strydhaizer]

I want to load an mdx file from Warcraft 3 directory (ex. Loading "NewFootman.mdx" from the main directory).

In 1.27 we used to put the custom model in the main directory where the Warcraft III.exe is at, then load that model by putting "NewFootman.exe" in the model path of the object.

In 1.30 we used to create a folder named "war3.mpq" in the main directory, put the custom model inside that folder, then load the model in the editor.

However lots have changed in the game files especially in Reforged. Anyone can help?

You need to enable the Allow Local Files registry flag and place the loose files in the _retail_ or _ptr_ directory.
