[QUOTE="Werewulf, post: 113319, member: 5915"] These Programs should help you in your model creation. ---- Recomended if wanting to mod/create models. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Wc3 Viewer-By TheProphet able to show and preview models(partcles do not show right,Do not fully trust what you see in wc3viewer, eg missing body part yet shows in mdl or decay anim with geoset mix up.

Don't expect this program to be in the same league as 3DStudio or the other leading commercial products. It was created as a simple (and free) alternative!" War Model editor shows particles properly and has a lower tendicy to crash on corrupted or fualted models. DirectX9 is needed and the latest patch of wc3 is highly recommended for it to work properly.

Note: The warcraft mdx importer does not import animations, so if you want to edit a models anim then i suggest your an idiot like me. Milkshape is able to create animation by using keyframes.
