Giving BM sword to Arthas

I have searched most of the forum and found not exactly the info I was looking for. I am trying to replace the frostmourne in Arthas' hands with the Bladmaster's sword.

Unsure as to whether I should import the BM sword into 3ds and rename it, or try to edit the MDL and switch swords from there...or maybe switch them in the editor with triggers?

Need help!

Many thanks.

this may not b any help but its a suggestion, why dont u just change frostmourne to your own sword?

I've also been trying to do this, if you ever figure out how tell me =)

maybe using 3ds max will do the job... extract the bm sword out... alpha out the frostmourne... attach the bm sword to his hand right... dunno if this works... btw thats the best i can do... ive only just got into modelling...

the guys at metalplanet already did this, to save you time

-->metalplanet.org -->war3editor--> lesarmes --> page 4

at the bottom of the page. my french is not good that said

Alpha out the frostroumne from the frostmourne blp with PS or PSP, then attach the BM sword via special effects.

hey wolverine thats an ogre with the bm sword, not arthas! =)

yes its an ogre, but its the weapon on download, you can use it on all units with weapon animations

ahhhh ok thank you!

i downloaded it, but now what do i open it up with?
