Buffs:
Abilities\Spells\Orc\Berserker\BerserkerTarget.mdx

Models:
Abilities\Spells\Other\ANsa\ANsaTarget.mdl <-- Extremely Cool, try it.
Abilities\Weapons\TreantMissile\TreantMissile.mdl <-- Treant's ranged roots attack?
Units\Nightelf\NightelfFishingBoat\NightElfFishingBoat.mdx <-- NE's 4th ship model.

Skins:
Abilities\Weapons\RangerMissile\HeroRanger.blp <-- Alternate Sylvanas (alive)


So who's got more? :8

Model: Units\Demon\ChaosOrcRange\ChaosOrcRange.mdx:Fel orc axe thrower, or Wolverine wanna-be. You decide

EDIT:

Skin: Textures\HeroRanger.blp :skin for the removed ranger hero.

Ah, that Ranger skin was there, too. Sweet.
Yeah, I forgot all about the fell orc one, hehe.

i thought we had a secret object thread over there somewhere...

Where? :O I must expand upon my collection. Hoo, hah!

Never heard about the ancient ziggurat?
Skin: Doodads\Northrend\Structures\AncientZiggurat\Ziggurat.blp
Model: Doodads\Northrend\Structures\AncientZiggurat\Ziggurat0.mdx and Doodads\Northrend\Structures\AncientZiggurat\Ziggurat1.blp
Both models have upgrade, birth and death animation, but they are equal to the stand one, usefful for a doodad.
Edit: The path does not have any spaces between the "Ziggurat" word, I can't change this spaces and does not have any idea about why they appear.

is this necesary?? who benefits?

All mapmakers wanting custom buttons, models, skins and buffs without the need to import anything.
Knowing the full list of all 'hidden elements' of the standard MPQ is vital to any maker of a custom map. So everyone benefits.

Smartarse.

Oh, and how could I forget?

buildings\undead\gargoylespire\gargoylespire.mdx



That ziggurat is awesome, by the way.

some of those buttons are really cool! are there models/abilities that go with them? I want to see the flying moon priestess!! hehe...

This thread has certainly already been done. Search in the Trigger Haven, since I think it was started way back when that forum and this one were one and the same.
