Hello.
1.I have downloaded a skin on the net, but how do i get it on a unit?

2. I whould like everybody who read this forum post 1 of their own icons or models. Because i need some refreshment for my map =). Credit is given Of course!

One more thing. 3. I have downloaded some swords and stuff to attach whith special effects but... I cant get it to work! I think the attachment poit is wrong... Here is the trigger:
PS: Region 00 is the whole map DS

Event. Unit Enters region 00

Condition. Triggering unit is equal to Archmage.

Action Special Effect - Create a special effect attached to the lefthand of (Triggering unit) using war3mapImported\sword.mdx

1) I'm assuming you have TFT. Open the import manager, import your skin. Double click on it (or might be right click) and check the little box for "custom path". Enter the correct path to the skin you're overwriting. Save your map. Voila. You should restart the editor after that.

3) Try: "left hand" not "lefthand" and instead of that overkill unit enters event, just have it run at "time elapsed = 1 second".

once you checked the "use custom path" checkbox, enter the path in the editbox above it.
