Model's skin in which files?

Post by initialD »

I was transfering wc3 from my pendrive to a computer. It worked but one of the model's skin was corrupted. It's dota's rylai (crystal maiden) skin. Everything was ok. Dota was playable. But when someone picked rylai, all I can see was a grey figure. No colour at all, no faces. Amazing it is still playable. I think one file was corrupted when I was transfering/copy-pasting. So which file should I re-copy? I think it should be in one of this but not sure of which: game.dll, Mss32.dll or Strom.dll? (the dota map is fine I DL in from getdota))

Well are you sure that the specific model is missing? I mean, did you try to see if its there on a different map?
If the model is missing the it has to be war3.mpq file.

PS: That could help us with side-server effect like collision but im just saying.

But if it's a custom model that's missing, wouldn't it be an .mdx file? I can't remember if CM had a custom model or not, but she does with Aghs.

It cant be a custom model as the map is directly downloaded from getdota.com.

I don't think you understand what I'm saying, it doesn't matter where you download it, if it's not a default model made by blizzard, it's a custom model.

I know what a custom model is. Plus i do know that rylai's model is not custom.

For your information, Rylai does not use a custom model while using Aghs.

Thanks guys. I got it. There is another file named War3x.wpq, that doesn't matter, right?
p/s
Yeah, I got a dota map with smaller map size (because of errors or files corruptions), yet I still can play it in Garena. Feeling like playing collided map but it's just some missing graphic. lol

That map was one week ago in my firned's computer. I will ask if it's still in the dustbin, if yes then I will upload it. Probably will not be there anymore ? It alto-delete every week right?
normally in those cases, just some graphics are missing, nothing else. I am sure one can edit a map in that way without changing the checksum, just like that Thai's collided map.


p.s The model is there. Just the "skin" is missing. So skin and models are all in war3.mpq?
