I know this has been posted before, but i just don't have the time right now to look for it. I recently re-installed the mod-tools to start a little but of modding again but I need help. In ZeroEditor when I put objects in my map they don't show up in the game. I would like to know how to fix this. Also when I put new terrain on the ground in ZeroEditor the map crashes. I would also like to know how to fix this. Please help me. Because I would like to learn to make a real map and learn to use ZeroEditor a little better.

Read the Everything you need thread and the Getting Started doc to learn how to put objects into your map and change the terrain. When your map is ready to be tested make sure that you munge it.

Please don't double post, or third post for that sake, GuitarMan.
I would usually have linked the site rules to you, but since you've been here since Jul 11, I'm pretty sure that you're able to find them on your own.

Off-Topic - Eh it wasn't a BIG bump.
On-Topic - I read the Getting Started guide and it didn't help at all. I was already doing what it told me to do. But the objects still don't show up in game, and the map still crashes when I add new textures. Do I have to do something with the lua or the REQ?

Have you actually moved these objects/textures to your world folder?

Yes I put all the objects MSH ODF TGA and all the othef iles that go to the objects that I use in my map in the world folder. But they wont show up in the game.

did you munge before or after you added stuff in ZE? That was my problem...
on-topic to another topic: how do I add at sts? They arent working when I put them into the game... Even though all the other vehicles are.

Did you copy the odf's and the files for the odf into your world folder ---> msh / odf?
Goblin: make a new topic.

I was already asked that. Read the topic. But the answer is yes.
now objects wont even show up in zero editor
*bangs head on keyboard* Ahhh im so stupid. I solved my own problem. I FORGOT TO SAVE.

. And idk why but the terrain is starting to work too.

I don't know why it crashed before though. The only problem that i still have is that i can't get any moving objects to show up in-game. Like Jabba or a Rancor. Anyone know what i should do to fix this.

Tut tut, don't triple post. The edit feaute is your friend. Merged...
Anyways, you need to get their animations in your world folder.
