So one thing that I am absolutly terrible at is actually computers.

I have been wanting to mess around with the Warcraft 3 editor and use models from online resourses.

http://www.wc3c.net/showthread.php?t=102254

The "thane metalhorn.rar" download link in the op is something I would like to use but I'm not sure what program to use to open it with. Could someone help me out?

Also, I pretty much am looking for dwarf models, so if anyone can show me any I would like that.

Thanks.

So I opened the RAR file or what ever and now I have 3 BLP files and 2 MDX files. Any one know what I should do?

So I got to a point where I thought I imported it, but I couldn't find it anywhere in the map... Bleagh I hate that I'm terrible with technology.

You go to the "Import" section in the editor and import the files you wish to use. Whatever unit you wish to use the model needs to have its model changed to the new one.

Star Wars: The Phantom Menace was the most disappointing thing since my son. I mean, how much more could you possibly fuck up the entire backstory to Star Wars? And while my son eventually hanged himself in the bathroom of a gas station, the unfortunate reality of the Star Wars prequels is that they'll be around... forever. They will never go away. They can never be undone.

Thanks, I kind of figured it out. Enough to use the model at least.

I still suck at custom maps though.

Custom models are actually pretty easy to import, though not all of them work properly for some reason.

Anyone know any good dwarf models? I want a more expansive dwarf army.

This one... No arguments here. It simply looks like it belongs into Warcraft 3. Triceron and Deolrin made it perfectly fit into the game.

Another one of Norinrad's models, so you might be interested.

Also by Norinrad. I got quite a bit of respect for him especially since he helped me in my own mod. I'm sad that his help was in vain though...

I know it#s based on warhammer and all, but it'd work well for a wildhammer.

Now, these are quite good models, too:

But in my oppinion they need a bit of touch up texture wise, as they don't fit as well into wc3's modeling style. (I'm very nit-picky concenring that )

Anyway, the best place to find something would be the hiveworkshop... Overall, I'd not use a lot of those models, but as I said, I am very picky concerning models, so you may find here something nice.

Also, I don't know what exactly you are up to, but it is maybe recommendable to maybe include also gnomes, as they'd be the perfect sidekicks to dwarves.
