Models are inserted via the Static Entity Proxy or Static Mesh entities, to do that, you need to convert your models to .act format which could be done either with Equity or the Astudio, included with the tools

Ok, so you've got your model in the .act format? Can you see the model with the ActView tool (in the 'tools' folder)? In which folder is the actor (.act file)? It should be in media/actors. How exactly are you trying to add the model to the level? What entity are you using and what values have you set in the entity properties?

Alright, when you add the entity in the level editor and select it you should see an 'Entity Attributes' list on the right. Find a field called szActorFile and enter the name of your actor file there. Don't forget the .act extension. Then compile the level and the model should be there.

Why does no one read the ebook or the manual? :roll: Head to the downloads section and download the ebook. It explains it very well.
