Its a tad fast for a tutorial, I might suggest just to slow it down a bit so you don't have to stop the video to see what your doing. I wish it was this simple for my vegetation models :lol:

I was able to add my first model to the game using this video and small Ivan's help so you can always ask him a few questions when you're stuck and out of ideas ;)
