How to create .mdatr for objects and bridges

[Viello 136]

is there a script for it or is there a tutorial to how to modify mdatr?

Hi, to edit an mdatr just open it on 3dmax (any version) using Ricky's script.

With this script you can open any file .mdatr or export it for new object.

 

I found a video but there is a lot of useless extra stuff. You can find it on yt by searching for "edit mdatr metin2" You simply have to create meshes like planes, boxes, spheres (based on the object) and rename them "Collision01, Collision02 etc etc"
