its more difficult then just drag and drop, so things need to be built into the maps, and all added items need to be referenced.
The best advice is to read some tutorials and mod step by step, as your reading the tutorial. Or print them and keep them handy while you mod.

Oh and dont make new topics, each time you post about this, instead open this thread and hit reply. :wink:

Silly ogrish. Entity supports drag and drop. So does Insolence. Then in Entity, all he would need to do is hit the fix system link button and it's "referenced". Although, that doesn't explain how to actually spawn them in the map.

@Skyliner99, you say you want to skin but adding objects to a map is different than skinning. Which were you more focused on learning first?

yeah your right, but as you said he'll need to read a tutorial, and do some learning first, cause that dosnt explain how to do it. And sorry for the incorrect post, i wasnt trying to mislead,
