Re: Objekts
Reading the documents would shed a lot of light on your problem, but i'll tell you anyway. if you want geonosis objects(for example), take the msh and odf folders found in modtools\assets\worlds\geo and put them into your data_abc\worlds\abc\world1. then when zeroeditor is open, go to the objects tab and locate the odf folder in your world1 folder and select the object you want to use. then look at the lefthand tab thing and youll see something that says select and place next to eachother. click place and when you move your cursor around in zeroeditor an object will be following. click your mouse to place the desired object. i hope that was clear enough. the documents are much clearer and can explain many things.

Re: Objekts
Lol, in a single paragraph he summarized all of the objects tutorial. Except better.
Yes, adding objects is one of the easiest parts of modding. But I see you also asked about making high spots.
Open up ZE, zoom out a bit to where you want the hill (or ditch). Click the "height" tab and select "raise". Right-click to lower land, left-click to raise it.

Re: Objekts
Do not use the one that makes it red. Raise tab is in the left-hand menu you get when you open the "height" tab. The "Height" tab is on the top bar, somewhere near "Terrain" and "Color".

Re: Objekts
By default when you open Zeroeditor you are in height editing mode. The sidebar that comes up allows you to edit height. Other tabs in edit mode include:teckstar96 wrote:seriously! i have looked in every single button i could find. i have even been reading evry single description, and i stil cant find it. by the way: :clone: rule
Color, texture, water, foliage, object, path, region, portal, hintnode, barrier, planning, boundary, and light.

Re: Objekts and transferring/creating units
You start by using the "edit" button instead of the "respond" one.
Then, you take a peek at the "BF2 Jedi Creation" sihpped document, which explains setting up a custom side.
Then you look at the FAQ thread, which explains it even better.
Then you do a forum search, download the assets for Durge, Fordo, and double pistols, and add them in following the tutorials.
