About the WC3 Model Editor

The Warcraft 3 Model Editor is a completly free tool, so please don’t compare it to highend software like 3DStudio or other products. The software is simple but really useful:
With the MPQ Browser in the tool, simply browse any MPQ archive and also Warcraft 3 Map files like .w3m and .w3x. The MPQ Browser can be customized and you can add and remove icons and filters. Like this the MPQ Browser is quite fast and slim.

For all who know C++ there is a DLL-interface to import models and to write your own model importer DLL’s.

Here is a custom model (Bender from Futurama 😀 ) in the Warcraft 3 Model Editor:
WC3 custom 3d model
