Need help with exporting OBJ files - SunshineKinnikuman - 02-16-2017

I've been very impressed looking at the models on this site, but found it difficult to get them to work at all. 

I'm trying to export models to the MDX format for a Warcraft 3 mod. I have gotten to the point where the obj works in Neosis. At this point it looks like this, after following the guide here: https://www.vg-resource.com/showthread.php?tid=19706

Now is where the serious problems begin, as I open it in Milkshape, the program that is used to export to MDX and as far as I know the only program that exists for this purpose.

This is the common problem with all models, when I open them in Milkshape the materials are all messed up and the model ends up without any textures. Like this one. I am not optimistic about Milkshape being able to handle porting any file to MDX already, so I wanted to ask for help from anyone who is familiar with porting these models to other programs that might help? Any pointers would be very much appreciated.
