you dont just put them in your personal folder, you have to used Notepad++ to add them in.

Poidog808 made some video tutorials on track making a little while ago, they will really help you out, i cant link you as im in school but just youtube "poidog808" and you're bound to find them

yea i got notepad++ and got some big packs to work but if i want to add 1 thing at a time it confuses me, cuz he says to delete all but the top line code and add the name of object ect.. and everytime i do that i lose my big pack and end up with 1 think like a bail. i guess i just need to play with it more. oh and hey where can i get more ground textures? like grass dirt sand...

Easy solution: open up any track folder that has statues in it, go onto the statues file, edit with notepad++. Either copy and paste one of the lines in the file into your tracks statues file or study the file until you understand it. It's a lot simpler to understand after watching poidog808's tutorials though, however I don't think he shows how to do statues actually in the file, but he does show you decals and it is very similar. It's not too hard to understand what to do but if you don't understand what I'm saying here, let me know and I will try to explain it in more detail.

Seriously this is not that complicated

Here is a sample line in your statues file:
[1450.000000 0.000000 50.000000] 0.000000 @finishpost.jm @finishbanner-repeat.png @finishpost.shp

Here is what it means:
[The coordinates of the object] (Rotation of the object) (Location of the .jm) (location of the texture for said .jm) (location of the collision file for said obejct)

So lets say you are making a track called "my_track" and you wanted to put an object called "my_object.jm" into your track. You named your texture "my_object.png" and you dont have a collision for it and all the files are located within your track folder.

Here is the line you would need to add (location is arbitrary because you can move and rotate it once you get it in game):
[0 0 0] 0.000000 @my_track/my_object.jm @my_track/my_objectpng null

It really is that simple...
