implementing downloaded models

You should have a new file called "filename.rar"
or a zipped file, depends. Extract this file into another folder, there should be a bunch of imported stuff inside, go into the editor, and click "Import Manager" find your UNZIPPED/UNWINRARED folder and double click the file you want to import.
 
I've been downloading some things from the hive workshop. Now, I have some skins for some units that I like. When I give some units the model want, there head portrait when I click on them is there unit body but very small. How do I make a real portrait for them?

PS: Some unit models come with the model file and a portrait file.

Also, how do I get a building a darkened icon for when I cant yet build it, and for when I can.
 
Where you download the model from Hive Workshop, there should be a tutorial link right below the download link. Just follow it.

You use a modeling program?

Your icon should come with both, they are called BTN and DISBTN

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Easily done

    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/
