This is the first icon i created too it was called well still is Lightning Sphere (i know its not original but it kinda fits the picture ) :noob:

I've uploaded it in rar so its in TGA format if anyone wants to use it. Just import it :)

Hm... lets make this thread for all the creations of the people in the forum wich can be used in the Warcraft III World Editor thus in map making :) , other than maps :P : icons, models stuff etc... since there anren'r many of us i dont think it will be written much in it but still it might be usefull :tiphat:
Oh and since its 00:00 here happy new year!

that second semester i hate it..... starts here 2..
hate ittt......
well it doesnt mean im giving up on Warcraft 100% :)

BTW Here are a few icons i made (i admit that some of the paintings weren't made by me,... so sue me but they had to be made WC is just the right place for them)
In the preview you have 4 i think they were 5 or 6 dno...
Again in the .Zip archive the files are in .TGA format meaning you just have to import them in your map, save it (thats kinda like refresh) and you will be ready to use them.... (man i got to start creating icons by themes...)

Post here tools for map making:
Jass Editor:
-for makers that are noot good at this they can use this tool to create Jass
-this tool gives you the title and of the Jass comand along with the COMAND LINE
Example:
AddHeroXP
|
|
|
|


AddHeroXP takes unit whichHero, integer xpToAdd, boolean showEyeCandy returns nothing



This comand adds experience to a certain hero from the game.(Remember to change the bolded objects to the certain objects in you're map)
Remember:the | are not present in the editor,it was just a way to make space to represent the main screen.

No further things to say so...

Alright lets revive this thread
This is an example post.
First you have introduce your model. In my case this is a model of a Naga unit.
Its recomended to give a preview for your model to the others.

As is seen in this immage if talking about a unit model it would be better to have the unit from more sites of view. Mine is from a gameplay view. If ou havea .gif or anyother way to show yor model tothe others tha the better.
Now the "How to get that f**king thing in my map" part.
For starters download the HeroNagaEnchantress.rar (http://eurobattle.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=51964&stc=1&d=1180437492) file. Extract it.
There you will find 2 folders 2 models and 1 Readme file.
Open the Warcraft map you want to put them in.
Open the Import Manager.
Import the 2 files from the folders and the two models .
Open the Readme file. There are few path you need those for the HeroNagaEnchantress.blp and the AltarPfDepths.blp Copy the first one, find its respective file right click it and choose Modify File Properties. There check the "Custm Path" box and there paste the path you have copied. Repeat thatfor the other .blp file, save the map and you are ready to use your model.
