First of, this is an amazing engine. It's everything I ever needed for making a game I want to make.
I found out that you can use simple 3d models in the game, I found the old manual, converted the models to a md3 format, edited the models.dat file to include the model, and while it's visible in the engine's Models configurator, I can't find it anywhere else so that I can place it on the map.
What now?
