As the title suggests - I know some folks are looking into exporting the high quality Warcraft 3 Reforged models into versions that can be imported into the SC2 Editor. Keep in mind - I know very little about the modeling process - but I do know models use .m3's and textures are using .dds's. Is there such a project going on? Do we have some sort of existing project workplace here on mapster for this - or is it on HiveWorkshop?

Bump - i know this is old, but in light of the new updates to the SC2 editor it would be great if somebody had a way to get Reforged models and WoW models in there. Looks like the new WoW model viewer doesn't let you export .m3 anymore sadly.
It might not be necessary for the Reforged models. If you look at the warcraft art mod you can find the reforged blademaster model. This can mean that more models may be added one day.
I'm hoping that is the case - I'm really excited about the new editor updates; but if there's one thing I've learned about Blizzard over the past 12+ years, is that they sometimes fail to address the obvious and make things better for their userbase. In this case, it seems obvious to include the Reforged models, but will they? Here's to hoping.
Regardless - has anyone developed any recent tools / methods to actually get WoW models and animations from the most recent version of WoW Model viewer into SC2? Looks like the old methods are outdated and no longer work. I'm teeming with enthusiasm and ideas, but its somewhat predicated on having these sorts of options available to editors & modders.
Basically - I need someone who has 3D Studio Max, can follow TaylorMouse's script here https://github.com/TaylorMouse/MaxScripts and import Reforged assets and export them as .m3 models and .dds textures.

Thanks!
Updates on this please.
Access to these assets would be a great boon for the community.
Anyone???

@OmegaWeaponX well that will be a lot of work if you want every model to be converted to m3 models... but I'm glad you found my script :Dµ
Currently updating it cuz there are/were a few bugs
