I'm not really feelling like dealing with this, I'm depressed. Well Get War3 Vewier extraxt the model you want to have a different skin. Then convert it with mdx to mdl converter. Then open mdl with notepad. Then scroll down till you find textures. then it will say the path of the skin change it to what ever you want save it then convert back to mdx and import the model and the skin and give the skin that path you made it.

Download the converter in the tools section.

Name the path anything you like, as long as you import the skin to that same path.

Your a Mac user, right Crypt? Unfortunatly, there are no Mac mdx<->mdl contverters at the time. I am, however, trying to learn C++ so I can make a converter myself. Doubt I'll get it done though...

only 1 texture ...

}
Textures 5 {
Bitmap {
Image "",
ReplaceableId 1,
}
Bitmap {
Image "Textures\Sentinel.blp",
}
Bitmap {
Image "Textures\Tornado1x.blp",
}
Bitmap {
Image "Textures\RibbonNE1_blue.blp",
}
Bitmap {
Image "Textures\Sparkle_Anim.blp",
}
}

I only changed this texture and imported my version of it in wc3 ed using this new path
than I imported the new modell and also gave it a mew path Abilities\Weapons\SentinelMissile\SentinelMissile2.mdl

and now i allready found my problem ... I imported the mdl not the mdx ...

now it works thanks a lot :D
