Some friend of mine told me that DotMW used the same texture and model format as Empire Earth does. So I was wondering, if we probably could take .cem files(Models) and textures from Empires adn move them to Empire Earth..
any idea...?

It is possible, I suspect. In Rise and Fall's editor (same engine, same producer but no modding abillity) we found units from Empire Earth and Empires DMW (though a patch ruined it). We think it was left over baggage, so the transfer, theoretically, should be simple enough that a mistake would leave it in the game.

BTW does e dotmw use the same trigger system as EE does? If yes, maybe i should consider buying it.. aand creating some scens?!

Empire Earth 2 is better (with all expansions too! Cause you can re-create Dynasty Warriors battles really well.), but dif' trigger system sligthly, anyway... You can trade some textures over I had ago at it using Confused Soldiers help.

Empires DMW had an updated engine. So that means textures and model formats were changed.
So, I'm saying that you can't use Empires models (version 5) in Empire Earth (version 2) unless Empire Earth was programmed to load the version.
However, Empires is backwards compatible and is capable of loading previous model versions.

I have both EE and E DOMW and the scenario editors in them both are virtually the same, Same layout, same triggers, though EDMW's are more advanced. It's most likely the same because of what the late SSSi did for the games.

I believe you may have skipped my post above.
EDMW to EE won't work. The EDMW model version are completely different and unsupported in EE. EE to EDMW will work. EDMW is backwards compatible.

Soty found out that textures do work from DMW to EE. he wants to see if you can pass Models from DMW to EE. if you are 100% confident that it's not possible, try to convince him.
