It doesn't work for me. Could someone tell me what I did wrong?

First I downloaded a sword.
I created a trigger to attach the sword.
I then created an item called "sword"
I created an ability from orc battle standard.
I gave the ability to the item called "sword"
I gave the item to the guy I wanted to attach it to.
Reloaded the World Editor didn't see a sword attached to the blood mage.:abomHUH?:

Yes, you have to edit the model, you have three options:

1) Edit the model yourself

2) Ask someone to do it for you

3) Use another model (like the villager)

To attack .mdx's, don't you jsut have to change the path in the trigger to .mdl? Or am I confusing something? I know that when I import .mdx's into a map, and then I use that as a missile art, ect, it automatically changes it to .mdl for the path.

You have to import the tower shield mdx into your map then use the Create Specail Effect or something like that I cant remeber because it has been forever since i made a made. Anyways you create the specail effect on the unit and go to custom effects. Select the tower shield and choose the attachement point. If you select weapon he will attack with the shield i do believe

How do I import the model? I can't even do that and all your pictures have an x in the corner.

You don't need the pics.

If you're using TFT, just go to the Import Manager. File-Import, then find whatever you're trying to import. Easy as that.

If you happen to be using RoC, than get TFT. Then go to the Import Manager, File - Import, and then find it. :p
Okay, if you really are using RoC, download WinMPQ. Open it up and open up your map. Then click the import button and find the file you want to import. Rename it whatever you want it to be called, just make sure you use the exact same file path when doing the trigger. Then get TFT.

EDIT: Anakaristhedark, if you haven't figured out your probelm yet, I think its that the Peasant can hold items but not use them. Either give it to a hero, or give the Peasant the Hero Inventory instead of Unit Inventory. I could be wrong though.

It looks like i am buying TFT because I can't get WinMPQ to work, I don't have a .rar extractor.
