Good Afternoon and Hello to the new Warcraft 3 team!
I apologies for the trouble but would like to inform the issue with some old SD models missing ever since the reforge update, these models include 2 different models of malfurion without his Stag, one of Reign of chaos and the other in Frozen throne from the time skip, for some odd reason the model seems to be in the game files but not accessible, if possible it would be awesome if you all could look into this matter. It’s strange to have an issue were older models are removed with an update.
Their are also other models missing as well
Chaos Space Orc models
Ballista Reign of chaos
Catapult Reign of chaos
Steam Tank Reign of chaos
Gyrocopter Reign of chaos
there may be some others as well but those were the ones I could find
Thank you so much for your time and work so far with 1.33, looking forward to your all work and glad to see what you all have done so far!
Stagless Malfurion is still available through the path: units\nightelf\Furion\Furion.mdx
Chaos Space Orc was removed because of copyright issues, which is pretty lame but I get it
ROC Ballista is available through the path: units\nightelf\ballista\ballistaold.mdl
ROC Catapult is available through the path: units\orc\catapult\catapultold.mdl
ROC Siege engine is available through the path: units\human\WarWagon\WarWagonold.mdl
ROC Gyrocopter does appear to be completely missing tho yeah

not really in the sense you can’t select the model and you have to /type it in also in the campaign it’s still missing and shouldn’t be.
What’s the point of having a model called Stagless Furion but it still has a Stag.
I mean I can understand being annoyed that they’re not available in the editor’s dropdown lists and all that, but in the case of most of these models, they weren’t actually removed and are still usable
World Editor has always been missing models from the drop down list.
The RoC models were replaced by TFT for the very reason that the developers of the time considered the TFT models better than the RoC ones. Replacing them in the campaign is fine, and most people will not care.
The only people who should care are people who used them in custom maps to distinguish between units. This apparently is not working correctly for legacy maps which used the variant selection field?
I do not know why the Chaos space orc was removed. They could have at least replaced it with a Marauder model ripped for StarCraft II as the soft linking to marine will have caused confusion in many custom maps.
