Im currently making a warcraft 3 campaing (frozen throne) and i've completed the first mission. Now i'd like to introduce some custom made units into my campaign. I have a evil texture created for the footman model, but i don't know how i can apply it to a custom unit that uses the footman model. I'v only found tutorials on how to make all units that use the footman model use this texture but i want two seperate textures> I want the original footman to keep his texture and my custom unit i created in the unite editor to use my texture. Doe anyone know if this is possible, and if anyone knows any tutorials could they give me a link. thanx

unwrap 3d $50US has a plugin to manipulate the warcraft 3 models.
You also need to extract them from the map file.

Just thinking about it, wouldn't any modification you make effect all units of that type.
I would imagine that the game makes accommodation for the number of units that are there already, and anything extra cannot be added. But, like with any game (if you know what you're doing), you can modify character details and images/models that already exist in the game.

I could be wrong, though

you can create new units with the editor that are based of vanilla units. These units can have their stats, animations ext, changed but there is no option to change their texture even though there is one to change their model. Thanks for the help guys anyways i think i have an idea what i might do. I'll export the unit into 3ds max change its name reimport it into the world editor so there are two units using the same model and then i can change the new one. This way i can keep the old unit texture and use my new one.
