Ok........... I have some reskinned units in my import manager, what now? I want my reskinned units in my map.
 
Man, I have the same problem! i cannot use reskinned units either, neither can i reskin a unit!
 
oh man

Hmmmmm........ Darg, do you know anything about this?
 
haha that's easy, folks... you just have to right-click on the skin you have in your import manager and then change the file and pathname to the unit you want to use it for.

Like for a demon hunter...

units\nightelf\HeroDemonHunter\HeroDemonHunter.blp
 
exactly as OrchRush said, find the model path for the model, and just change the .mdx extension to .blp.

so

units\nightelf\HeroDemonHunter\HeroDemonHunter.mdx

uses the skin path

units\nightelf\HeroDemonHunter\HeroDemonHunter.blp


NOTE: You will NOT see the reskinned unit in the editor.
 
haha sorry to keep correcting you Darg, but you do see the unit in the editor... but you have to first save your map and then restart the editor for the new skin to take effect on the model.

You're probably getting pissed at me by now for picking you apart for small stuff..

sorry, it's my nature. lol and hey if you have like two minutes, drop by the thread called "skinning" i started and give me some advice... you're like the resident bard (jack of all trades) here and you've probably got the best advice of anyone on my problem even though skinning isn't your forte...

at least if you haven't suddenly gotten addicted to skinning it's not your forte, you said so in an earlier post

    Hmm what to do about the World Editor site though?
  • Stephen Stephen:
    I'd rather personally just own a backup of the Nuon data than see it go to AtariAge honestly. If it gets enshittified as per usual, or if some of the "regular" Jaguar folks get there, it's not gonna be fun
  • The Helper The Helper:
    There will be a github of the forum data so the NUON Forum Data I guess would be available there
  • The Helper The Helper:
    World Editor is technically Ryoko stuff not mine you guys can keep that I am not in that even
  • jonas jonas:
    :( end of an era :(
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Dont think of it as an end jonas - think of it as a beginning, because really my friend that is what it is.
  • A Andyoyo:
    Thank you for the hard work over the years. It did not go unnoticed.
  • U Uberplayer:
    Thanks for everything!
  • XXXconanXXX XXXconanXXX:
    And we JUST got a new warcraft 3 campaign after 20 years! Bummer lol. Thanks for building and maintaining such an awesome community over the years TheHelper! Forums like these are definitely a relic of their time, and in its heyday it really was the place to be in its niche. Hopefully the discord community stays active!
  • WildTurkey WildTurkey:
    All the best helper
  • WildTurkey WildTurkey:
    Thanks for what you have done for me and my family
  • WildTurkey WildTurkey:
    I wish you all the best and am saddened to say goodbye
  • The Helper The Helper:
    That is fantastic WildTurkey I am so happy to hear that! Bless you and your family!
  • The Helper The Helper:
    and i dont think I am going to close the site it is just likely to change drastically but I am working on something for the interim still fleshing it out. Most of the forums are going to be gone though and the NUON site and Warcraft sites will probably to to different hosts. I might keep the news forum though :)

  • The Helper The Helper:
    So I paired down the forums to what is going to be in the interim
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I might also just go for one news forum and make it Headline News only all that sub forum stuff was busy work on my part i think :)

    It's been great guys, I appreciate you having kept it up for so long! I feel like this has been a big part of my growing up in life, and I do very much appreciate everything that this forum has been able to give to me. So thank you.

    If there's bits still around I am willing to bet I will be, but I honestly wouldn't be too upset if some of my teenager posts were to no longer be around. I was a little fucking problem back then

    I'm going on a backpacking trip pretty soon. I've been trying to do it for a few years now and it just couldn't happen. I'll be by myself, and I think it'll be really good for me. My pack is already too heavy so I can't bring alcohol, and that might be a benefit to me. Like had that probation and couldn't drink, but it's a bit different when you can't do something voluntarily versus threat of literal imprisonment

  • Varine Varine:
    The trail is 40 miles altogether, but I'm planning on cutting cross country a bit because I want to camp on top of this mountain. I'm bringing a little telescope, if there's still a place for it I'll post some pictures when I get back!

  • jonas jonas:
    honestly there's nothing on that trip that would become better by drinking
  • jonas jonas:
    looking forward to those pictures
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Happy Thursday people! I think I have come up with a new direction for the site. One that will never fizzle out because a game is not popular anymore. I think I am going to try to make TheHelper.net a place that helps people with real stuff as much as it did with game technical support back in the day. Stay tuned...
