Very straightforward tut on exporting your stuff into the engine.
Enjoy, and drop some feedback if you will! :)

Bear in mind, this techniques shown in the video work exactly the same for both the C2 SDK (The one I used in the video) AND the Free SDK.
Also, in the end of the movie, I forget to mention the LOD debug command, which is e_debugdraw3 (You'll see a 1/3 on the objects pivot, meaning you are currently seeing LOD 1 out of 3)

The video's not working anymore. Would you have an alternate download?

The video is working fine here. Try cleaning your cache :)

I must be doing something stupid here. I'm using the Cryengine 3 free SDK but when I export the model I cannot find it in the engine.

I've tried putting cfg file in:

C:\Cryengine\Editor\Objects\
C:\Cryengine\Game\Levels\Testmap\

Neither seems to work.

Watch the tutorial again, you are exporting it to the Levels folder, I say that the objects must be exported to the Objects folder, like this:

\Crysis2\GameCrysis2\Objects\YourProp (If you are using C2)

\CryENGINE_v3_3_5_2456_FreeSDK\Game\Objects\YourPr op (On the free SDK)

Donīt forget to press reload in the editor when you are exporting a new mesh and your editor is already open....

Thanks a lot. I now see what the problem was. There was no Objects folder in the game folder. So I just assumed that it would be the Editor/objects in the SDK version. So I just created the map myself and now it works.

Yes, the contents of the Object folder will override everything that's in the Objects.PAK as well. :)

And yes, you need to create it manually.
