hi, i currently am a moddler for a game called C&C generals, but i want to do some warcraft editing, i use a free moddeling program called gmax, but i heard on these forums that gmax doesnt work with warcraft, i was wondering if anyone knows a free program similiar to gmax thats compatible

There is a script in development that will work with gmax. If you dont want to use warez like 80% of the people on this site do you would have to wait. Or get milkshape but that aint free either.

[No warez-removed by director Cookie. Im in a good mood today so see this as warning one]

Cookie's note: Dex is probably on hold for now, as the creator is working on something else for now, not to mention that with the release of wc3 art tools, the interest of Dex has been reduced almost to nihil...

actually i think i almost got it. download wings then make a model. export it in 3ds. then go to google and search mdx obj 3ds converter. (this is how i got mine)

then open the 3ds file in the converter

then load up the directory you want it in and the name

then click convert.

then im stuck on uv wrapping and animateing with wings

u can use anim8or, its FREE AND AMAZING. go to www.anim8or.com and downloasd the executable. follow the eggplant tut and u can get the models into warcraft by export 3ds then convert to mdx.u might like it soo much that u will start using it for modeling ththe other stuff u model. i think it was CC or something. ^_^
