sometimes APM will cooperate with me and 200+ objects, sometimes not. Not really sure what the factor is there, but I guess you could hand edit your scn too maybe.

Or place them all in D2. It even has a terrain and "last object placed alignment thingy do dad" to make objects, especially bales, as painless as possible to place.

good luck.

u can get up to like 500 costum objects to work ingame

Place em all in dillo  then save/run apm and close
then open D2 and pack it

it will work

I'd like to clear something up.  Once you place a custom object and use APM, you need to use APM everytime you save your project in Dillo.  If you save it in Dillo and then try to reopen your project, it will fail.

The typical failure scenario is to work on your project. Use APM.  Keep doing that and then make one last change, but you have to go somewhere and you just save it in Dillo.   When you come back to it a day, week, or months later it won't open in Dillo.  You just need to run APM and then open it in Dillo.

What I do is everytime I save, I use APM.  Then to be extra safe, everytime I start reworking on a project I run APM before opening the project in Dillo.
