Team Colors

I'm trying this for days, but I can't figure out how to make team colors. please help!!

WHat do you want to do exactly? Add team colour to a model?

I think he means that, like in the blademaster flag that was giving the other guy some trouble

yes, I just want the team color somewhere else, I am trying to make a Nerubian Crypt Lord for a campaign, but do I change a team color with skinning or modelling or something?

Sometimes with skinning sometime with modelling you gotta try it out all

ok, but what do I do with skinning and what with modelling? Ow, and which programme do I use for modelling?

You need psp6+ and for modelling 3dsmax4.2+ or any other modelling program

ok, but what do I do with skinning and what with modelling

don't forget warcraft 3 viewer and photoshop, they're my favourite programs to use when skinning.

Yes I have them its superhandy. But with team colors, how to replace them!? :( Ow, and I can't use modelling because my computer is broke (DAMN VIRUSSES!) and I can't install programms now :(

ok, heres what you want to do... 1st - extract the .blp file you want to change, in your case the crpyt lord, from the mpq using WinMPQ or something else.

2nd - Convert the .blp file to tga using warcraft viewer or another program.

3rd - Now using photoshop open you picture (heres the tricky part)
now as you can see there are parts where the skin has grey and white squares. This is where the team colour shows through. This can be deleted by painting over it.

Now, if you want to add a place where team colour shows through you have two options.
1 - You can select areas and delete them.
or
2 - using quickmask colour everything in black then use white on the areas where you want team color to show through. Then go back to normal mode and delete the selected stuff.

4th - convert it back to .blp with warcraft viewer. then import it into wc3.

Note - quickmask mode is found on the tool thingy where you can choose what tool you want to use. Look near the bottom. And this does not work for hero glow. You have to model for that and i could tell you but im too lazy.

there's a tut on skinning in the tuts section if you need...

go to www.jasc.com and download a trial version of psp8

PSP8 doesnt have alpha channels, so ignore him.
