Creating a Warcraft III Model by Hand - Part 1: Vertices

This video is the first in a series detailing my journey of creating a fully functional Warcraft III model using nothing but notepad (and later maybe an image editing tool for conversions). I will write the model in .mdl rather than .mdx because it is human-readable, which makes the video more easy to follow, and because I don’t yet hate myself enough to make an .mdx from scratch.

Yes, this is tedious and pointless, but I think it’s fun … mostly.
This time I will only create the vertices, so there won’t be too much interesting output yet but the process itself is fascinating (in my opinion at least).
