Its pretty easy actually. Campaign files are just a bunch of maps put together. If you open the campaign files from campaign editor you could extract the maps within the campaign files. Then you could add the skins and models then import the map back in and replace the old one. But if you want the skins and models for each map, then you'll have to repeat for each map, this might dramatically increase the file size.

Hope this helps .

This is in the wrong forum btw.

Actually that's plain wrong because that will make the skins be duplicated, the campaign editor has a kind of import manager, use it!

Yah the import manager did seem to help a lot i just didt know that when imported i had to close world editor for them to work...oh and about exporting the maps made from campaign file..with my custom made units in the campaign file they all get removed from the map which then gives me huge hassle to redo all triggers units and what not so thats basically why i made this thread...the thing that seemed to help out a lot that i didnt know existed on this web page was this:
