Hey, I have downloaded a model file from Online and its not working in my map. It doesn't have a place to import the skins to but it has a skin with it. No matter what I put this skins path to, it doesn't work. In the game it just shows the shadow and in the world editor it just shows the green checkered square. The website said to create a thread if the model file didn't work for me and I didn't know where else to create one:(. Here is the link to the model file download: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/models-530/flak-cannon-48081/?prev=d=list&r=20&c=23&t=6
If anyone manages to get this working, please tell me how. Its really bugging me, thanks.

If you check your HiveWorkshop link, then you'll find a link for help.
Just above the download link is the "How to import the model?" link.

Click it and you'll end here, which seems like a very good place to start searching for your answer.
Step by step and everything.

If it still doesn't work, or raises new questions, let me know :)

Re-download and re-import. Sometimes stuff gets screwy during download.

Also, could you post a screenshot of your import manager?

Open the model with notepad and search (CTRL-F) for the name of your skin and there you will see the import path.

Also, the files that are .mdx or w/e dont have to be messed with, and for the blp ones all you have to do is delete the war3mapImported\ path infront of it.

    Looks like Google fixed whatever mistake that made the recipes on the site go crazy and we are no longer trending towards a recipe site lol - I don't care though because it motivated me to spend alot of time on the site improving it and at least now the content people are looking at is not stupid and embarrassing like it was when I first got back into this like 5 years ago.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Plus - I have a pretty bad ass recipe collection now! That section of the site is 10 thousand times better than it was before
  • The Helper The Helper:
    We now have a web designer at my job. A legit talented professional! I am going to get him to redesign the site theme. It is time.

    I got one more day of community service and then I'm free from this nonsense! I polished a cop car today for a funeral or something I guess
  • Varine Varine:
    They also were digging threw old shit at the sheriff's office and I tried to get them to give me the old electronic stuff, but they said no. They can't give it to people because they might use it to impersonate a cop or break into their network or some shit? idk but it was a shame to see them take a whole bunch of radios and shit to get shredded and landfilled

    whatever at least you are free

    How come you're so into recipes lately? Never saw this much interest in this topic in the old days of TH.net
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am not big on the recipes I am just promoting them - I use the site as a practice place promoting stuff

    @tom_mai78101 I must be blind. If I go on my profile I don't see any area to edit the signature; If I go to account details (settings) I don't see any signature area either.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    You can get there if you click the bell icon (alerts) and choose preferences from the bottom, signature will be in the menu on the left there https://www.thehelper.net/account/preferences

    I think I need to split the Sci/Tech news forum into 2 one for Science and one for Tech but I am hating all the moving of posts I would have to do
