I tried making a vertical gate but this was the result:

What should I do to make it vertical? It's horizontal.

>create a custom model and change the model to the gate o_O
not helping...

He probably wants the gate as an unit and as a vertical one
if you just change an unit model to the gate model it will always be horizontal and no i don't have a clue on how to make it vertical for what i know it isn't possible..

Extract the gate model
Open it with the "War3ModelEditor" (Check out the Tools page)
Rotate the model around the Z Axis 90 degrees.
Import it to our map.

Should work.

Thanks for helping, Amfidamant! I can make my vertical gate now.

@H34DhUnT3r: With the War3 Model Editor.

You'll need to find the Elf Gate first.

Go to Windows > MPQ Browser.
Then go to File > War3.mpq.

If that doesn't work, then

Go to File > Open MPQ Archive

Search the War3.mpq file at your Warcraft III directory.

Now, this is the part to find it.
Double click Doodads > LordaeronSummer > Terrain > ElfGate > ElfGate.mdx

Now, the Elf Gate should appear at the Model Editor. It is now horizontal.

To change it, you have to

Go to Windows > Model Editor
Go to Selection > Select All
Go to Transformations > Rotation

Rotate 90 degrees around Z axis

Then close the Model Editor, NOT the War3 Model Editor!! Now, your screen should be at War3 Model Editor. Click File > Save as

and save your file as ElfGate in the War3ModelEditor directory.
Now in the World Editor, import the ElfGate.

What if you don't make it a building, you should be able to rotate it then.

And isn't there both a vertical and a horizontal gate model?

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
