Hi!!

I'm having one issue with one model. I want to use an ID texture instead of normal texture related to the terrain. For example, if the model is in the Barrens, it will get the texture of the barrens, if it's in ashenvale, that one. I've tried with the texture ID31 and it looks fine in magos but it didn't work at WC3.

It's mandatory to use a special setting to make it work??

I never tried this work before, I wonder if someone who have more experience on modding can help us here I'm also interested to know how to do this. Also why don't contact our model moderators concerning about this.

Here are the list of replaceable IDs:
0 - none (use texture instead)
1 - Team Color
2 - Team Glow
11 - cliff
31 - Lordaeron Tree
32 - Ashenvale Tree
33 - Barrens Tree
34 - Northrend Tree
35 - Mushroom Tree
*Nothing Follows*
I think what you want to do is difficult for warcraft 3 unless you will use coding (which I do not know) so that the model changes its texture whenever he is in a different terrain type (and there is no replaceable IDs for terrains based on the list of Magos Model Editor).

Thanks for your answer

Yes, you're right, this is a thing that can be done with abilities (specifically the one called Grab tree from mountain giant). But my question would go to doodads like the bridges, which come with a texture that depends on the tileset. How could I do this??
