How to add new doodads in the doodad palette... ?

[Diogenes]

Hello all.

I want to import some new doodads in my world editor ( 18 total ) but i dont want to follow the usual procedure like to change art - model file etc. I want to keep the current ones as they are and add in the doodad palette list the new doodads. Also i made my search on internet but didnt found anything than usual procedure.

How can i add the new doodads in the list without change the current ones ?

Sorry for my english

I'm not sure it's possible to add new doodads but you can replace the original one by a costum model, try to find a suitable format for your imported model.

Cntrl + C then Cntrl + V on an existing doodlad then change it's model ? I tested here and created one, and it appeared on the table

Your problem is probably the tilesets.
There is a variable for doodads called "Editor - Tilesets". Edit that value to "all".
You could also set it to something else, but it wont show in the list when you dont have any of the given tilesets selected.

I tought the same way, Wietlol, It took me a while to realize where my custom doodlad was, until I found it under it's tileset category, I think the only problem he/she is facing is not founding it's custom doodlad due to the tileset thing

I dont have problem with the tileset i just want to add a new doodads in doodad list without change other doodads...
for example here:

there are 9 default doodads i want to add 4 new doodads in the list so there are 13 without replace other doodads or any other art - model file

As I said before, just Copy and Paste an existing Doodlad then modify it as you wish.
Let me help you step-by-step:
1- Open Object Editor (F6)
2- Go to the Doodlad tab
3- Copy and paste existing doodlad
4- Modify the copied doodlad's name, model etc as your wish
5- On the copied doodlad data search for the field called "Editor - Tilesets"
6- Check the box that says "All"
7- Go to your doodlad palete in the terrain editor
8- Search for your doodlad in the list!
9- Done! your doodlad is now showing in the list
10- Enjoy your new doodlads!
