You put your models (w3x) in the ART folder of your TW sdk. You need to export the model as a w3x if you hvent allrdy...you should have the plugins in your max9 folder thats in MOD SDK. A good start might be to read the documentation on how to set up your mod and add new objects to the game.

 

 

Any texture you use on your model needs to be declared by a xml file:

 

example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<AssetDeclaration xmlns="uri:ea.com:eala:asset" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
  <Texture id="OSR_A10Thunderbolt_Dif_01" File="OSR_A10Thunderbolt_Dif_01.dds" />
</AssetDeclaration>

Then have a look at existing xml files to see how units nd buildings are made up.

 

You need to reference your w3x model in the units xml:

 

Example:

<Include
            type="all"
            source="ART:GU_Cmmndo_DIEB.w3x" />

then you reference that new units xml file in your main file..called mod.xml

 

example:

<Include type="all" source="units/GDIRepairDrone.xml" />

then you compile your mod, and if done right your unit should apear ingame.

 

This is the short version of the how to....do read the documentation that comes with the MOD SDK and have a look here if you want a step by step tutorial on how to create (model and rig) a new unit

 

this one is abit outdated when it comes to mapping and animating the tank treads but fine for the rest.
