Many times I’ve downloaded a placeable with the mdl’s and texture files included in the download, but there isn’t a placeable 2da.
I need to know how to make, structure and fill the appropriate fields in to complete the picture if you know what I mean. 
Thanks peeps - wait, I think I hear footsteps. Proleric, is that you?
Mabey there’s a tutorial?
The simplest approach is to find a similar placeable in placeables.2da. Copy all the fields except the line number to an unused user-reserved line. Change the description and the model name.
To fine-tune the other fields, see wiki.
A text editor can be used, but a 2da editor is much easier. There are several on the Vault - check out the reviews.
Thanks P.
Now that I’ve had a chance to read the wiki - it’s all explained very nicely - in detail! Thanks again!
