I searched all over the forums and I didn't find nothing that answer my question. How can I make work the models with the new object editor from TFT? I import the .mdx and the .blp files, but when I try to put the unit in the map, I get only a big green-black squared cube. Why? What I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.

you need to make sure that the path to the texture is right in the importer

Thank you nicoli but I think that I should explain the whole problem:
I'm trying to give to the orc Shaman a new skin. I extracted the shaman.blp and edited it with Paintshop 7. Then hex-edited the shaman.mdx to change the path to "units\orc\shaman\shamam.blp" and rename the file as "Shamam.mdx". Converted the .mdx to "Shamam.mdl", then imported all three files to a map. Changed the paths:

units\orc\shaman\shamam.blp
units\orc\shaman\shamam.mdl
units\orc\shaman\shamam.mdx

It doesn't work already. What's wrong?
