Newb question (portraits)

Hi, can anyone tell me how to get the portrait file (name_portrait.mdx) to work properly? I've read all these tutorials and none of them seem to touch on portraits =(

sorry for this very newb question, but i've been spending a long time trying to get the portrait to work, everything else works tho...

thanks

the portrait's name must match the model's name...
examples: Arthas.mdx & Arthas_Portrait.mdx
Scirocco.mdx & Scirocco_Portrait.mdx

hope that answers your question...

In your model scene, add a target camera pointing towards the face of your model. Export it that way. Now just name it yourunitname_portrait.mdx. Import and voila.

ok... i have the file names to be exact, but now the problem is, where do i put each file?

lets say i have a model.mdx, model_portrait.mdx and skin.blp

where do i put the portrait file?

well, if your model has a path then use the same for the portrait...

btw, what model are you trying to do this to?

oh, im trying to import the "haremgirl" model by...razorclawx (or something like that)

ya, that model has the path "units\human\haremgirl"
and the files are:

haremgirl.mdx
heroharemgirl.mdx
haremgirl_portrait.mdx
heroharemgirl_portrait.mdx
haremgirl.blp

so what i did is to put them all in my "warcraft3\image\haremgirl\" folder, and put the skin file in "warcraft3\image\haremgirl\units\human\haremgirl\" folder.
Using WE, i imported the all the file and changed the path of the skin to the path above. Everything works fine except for the portrait =(

So I see the model in game, but it has no portrait...

did i do something wrong?

OMG i just figured it out, (lol right after i put that detailed reply) turns out i just needed to set the path as "war3mapimported\" for both the model and the portrait.

Anyway thx a lot for all the help =)

i thought so...
