Why do some models not show?

[weuser]

About 1/5 of the models I download don't appear in the world editor or in the battlefield when I put them in the game and test map even after I save and exit and reopen World Editor. Why? Other people are seeing these models (they are commenting on how good they are and such). Why aren't they working for me? Also, I'm pretty sure I've downloaded all the needed files in the download folder for most of them because I just right-clicked in the import manager and told it to get the files in the folder and I know for many that it downloaded multiple files from those folders).

In the Import Editor, there will always a prefix that says "war3mapImported\"
Try remove that.

Example:
war3mapImported\BigSword.mdx -> BigSword.mdx (delete that war3mapImported\)

Ah.... thanks again.

Can't believe I didn't catch that. I did for others but I just totally forgot about it for this group of heroes.

removing the war3mapimported isn't really necessary for models... but for textures/icons, you need to make sure you use the right path...
