Modeling help needed please :( My models keep coming out black and and when they die it makes a box type of drawing shaped as them on the floor instead of a corpse.

odd, looks like they miss a wrapping (hence the blackness) and in case of that smudging out when death anim, could be related with missing bones or incorrect geosetanim and bone verification. However, its hard to figure out the problem if we dont have the model to analyse it

Ok i opedned up 3ds max 4. loaded up kmk importer/exporter. checked Static unchecked bone rotation the selected my model. and when to modify. I click vertex and started to move the little plus symbols. ( i moved the weapon tip to be a little longer) then i went to Select by Name and selected my peon1 - peon5. The list type had these checked. Geometry,Shapes,Lights,Cameras,Helpers,Space Warps,Groups and XRefs. after i select all my peon (peon1 - peon5) i when to Export as Mdx and saved it as peon1. so it said i exported correctly. then i loaded up War3FileConverter and converted both Peon.mdx (The Original one i extracted, and converted Peon1.mdx to mdl. So after that i loaded up the program Replace Geosets2 which is i the forum Warcraft Editing tool and tool list thread here is Link.
Link to the Replace Geoset2
Here's my step using that program to replace Geosets. I select Source and select my edit mdl. then i select original and select the peon.mdx which i extracted out. then i select output and select where my replaced geoset will be. then i click replace geosets and it does it. After i replace it with that program i load up War3FileConverter again and conver the ouput from the geoset replacer program to covert it to Peon.mdx From Peon.mdl. Then i load p WE (World Editor) And go to import manager and import my peon.mdx to the following path. Units\Orc\Peon\Peon.mdx and i save it run the game and it comes out all Black :( .

Please help me if you can.
