Importing .OBJ files

• This assumes you have a triangulated model with its own uv map for your textures.

1. Create a new folder in the packages/models folder. Name your new folder so that is describes the model.

2. Save or copy your obj file into your new folder you just created.

3. Rename your obj file to tris.obj

3. Save or copy your jpg texture file into the new folder. Rename your jpg texture file to skin.jpg

Also, you need a configuration (.cfg) file. You can copy one from the other folders or make your own using notepad. If you copy a cfg file from another folder be sure to delete the text inside it. It can be left blank with no information. There are commands for obj files here: Sauerbraten OBJ configuration

4. Rename the cfg file obj.cfg
