i been throughly in a month now finding solutuions on how to fix my wc3 model editor....

it starts like this
1. download zip file of wc3 model editor
2. extract it on my folder(not warcraft)
3. open it and an error says : a missing .DLL is not found d3d9.DLL
4. well i have downloaded one and placing the dll inside the folder of wc3 model editor
5. after, i restart my computer and try to test it again. then an error saying again: a link export from d3d9.dll is not found DDRAW.DLL ....second error saying: a file from C:\Desktop\my file\wc3 model editor is not functioning
6. then ive got DDRAW.DLL at the system and copying it and placing it again at the folder of the model editor.
7. try to restart the computer
8. try again...and....f***:banghead: the error is still there

then thats the last of it
my wc3 TFT and ROC are not installed at my computer, i just copied it from my friend....maybe thats the problem

On your keyboard, open WE and press "Print Screen" on your keyboard, the abreviation is probably "Prt Scr"... Go to your WarIII directary and open the Screenshots folder, it should be created... Make sure after you take your screenshot, it says "Screen Captured.." Open the file up with Ifranview or something like that and save it as JPEG or JPG or whatever you want to reduce the file size... Then save it and then you can attach it as a thumbnail to this site... :D

for the love of god use Google, yahoo, ask jeeves, something. I swear i know its a Microsoft program but i don't keep tabs on where to download stuff. I literally typed in direct "x download" on Google and it was right there on about 2.9million pages!!

Gl with the modeling though. Ive never used that program so im no help.

It suspect it is because your RoC/TFT aren't installed.
Click to expand...
ahh....so thats the system requirements.......
is there another way to open the model editor even if i didnt installed ROC and TFT?
do you have DirectX installed?
Click to expand...
i installed it from now, but still didnt work

what does DEXPORT does?
i downloaded one but it is not a program, and it chooses another program to open it

how can i open mdx files from GMAX, or any warcraft models that can be opened at GMAX?

I think it was something with your drivers..... D3D9 affects your drivers....

Try searching for Direct X9............ or maybe updating your video card drivers

mdx cant be directly imported. Now dexport is a export script for gmax. There is a tutorial on this sight right in the margin. It says Warcraft 3 Tutorials - modeling. That should give u info on dexport and gmax. Getting it into gmax, theres a process but i don't remember what it is sry. You might be able to use the same script but you may need a different one.

You wont be able to import directly as i said. What you will need is the converter (check the tutorial) that goes from .mdx to .mdl or .mdl to .mdx (it also does .blp and .tga i think). Then as a .mdl you can find a way to get it into gmax.

Try doing this Right Click My Computer -->> Properties... A menu will pop up... Click Hardware -->> Device Manager... Another Menu will pop up.. Now click on Display adapter and see if it has exclamation marks sign....

Another is by Looking at DXDIAG...
Click Start -->> Run... Enter DXDIAG..... A menu will pop up... Click to Direct X files and see if it has problems... If not.. click to Display and see if all DirectX features are enabled....

    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats

    New recipe is Shipwreck Dinner - https://www.thehelper.net/threads/recipe-shipwreck-dinner.193511/
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
