Model, UV map, and rig your model.
Run zero joints. This must be after your skeleton is made but before you animate. If you run this after you animate, it will ruin your animation.
Animate. Just make one sequence (as in stand, walk, attack, whatever) after another with some space between. If a bone is animated during a sequence, make sure that bone has a frame on the first and last frame of that sequuence.
Define sequences in the comment of your model. (As in under the 'Comment' button of the model tab.) The format is "Animation name, first frame-last frame[, looping/nonlooping]"
Example sequences:
Stand,1-30
Attack,45-70,nonlooping
Walk,90-120,looping
'Looping' means that when the animation is played in-game, it will continue to run until the unit is told to do something else. Walk, stand do that, for example.
Define materials for your model. This is done by editing the comment section of a material. Types are set by having one of the following words on a line:
Teamcolor - Make black alpha channel into team color
Glow - Hero glow
Transparent - Make black alpha channel area invisible
If you don't have one of those, it will just be a default material.
The path is set by putting "Path:Textures\whatever.blp". This is where the texture should be imported.
Geosetanims - Done by putting comments on groups.
Example line:
Hidden: Stand, Walk before 30, Death after 80
The animation names are caSe-sEnsiTIve.
You can make a bone use linear interpolation by adding "Linear" to its comment.

Ok I try to explain my situation : I use the WoWModelViewer (the tool for to see models of World of Warcraft), and it can export models into MS3D.
So if I understand that you say, I need to download MilkShape3D and load a model exported by the WoWModelViewer, and export it with MilkShape3D?
Ok, that's seems easy.
That for all!
(I hope than my english is not too bad -- thanks to my dictionnary) :p
EDIT : Where I can find Milkshape3D?
