Custom Skins

[CheeseyPeanutz]

im a pro at the world editor. i can do any kind of trigger, spell, or anything like that but i need help putting custom skins into my map. i already have them but i cant get the game to read them, the world editor shows them just fine. i have all the files imported, but when i go to change the model of a unit i choose imported and pick the one i want. then i hit ok, and click it again, it just goes back to the standard unit skinn. PLZ HELP!!! if you can help me i will give credit in my map. its a dota like map but its more balanced and better overall. not just my opinion many of people say. if you wanna see the map ill post it here, but it is protected.

i changed all the filenames to the unit they are modifyin, thats what one readme said. is that wrong? i think that might be the problem. ill try that. if it works ill post again

 

[Kaldaris]

ok, i havent found the list yet. but heres what needs to be done-

find the path of the skin you want to replace.

and punch it into the imported skin.

voila. when you put the model that uses the skin down, it should just the imported one.

thats what i did but it only showed up in the editor b/c i put the files in the wc mail folder. once i took them out it went back to normal. yes i reimported the file. can you make a simple map with the imported skin working so i can see how its done. thats all i need.
