Custom mods in cinematics

Has anyone else seen where you replace the skins/models in a game and run a cinematic, that you don't have the skin/model that you chose but the default character in which the skin was to replace and when you turn cinematic mode off, you get the skin/model that you chose for that character?

Just curious as my skins/models don't show in cinematic mode but do in regular game play. Sort of takes away from the effect that I was hoping for.

Or am I just not doing something wrong while in cinematic mode?

thanks

O.o thats a bit wierd...
Any particular model that doesn't work for you in a cinematic? (If so attach it here so I can try importing it)
Also if its a custom destructable doodad, make sure the "Use Lightwieght Model" field in the Destructable Editor is set to false.

Here is the skin. The path is Units\NightElf\DruidOftheTalon\DruidottheTalon.blp

It is suppose to generate a wizard looking guy which it does when not in cinematic mode. Thanks for looking.

Hmm it works fine for me.
Are you sure you imported it right?

The path should be:
Units\Nightelf\DruidOfTheTalon\DruidottheTalon.blp

Appreciate you looking into it. I'll give it another try and see what happens. I don't believe that any of the material in the game would be causing it not to load correctly. I'll keep you posted though.
