The adjoins should have only two surfaces, one on each side of it.Say the surfaces each have 4 vertexs, for a total of 8 . Then you must position four of those vertexs where the other four are (exactly). there are several ways of doing it, use the grid,use crtl+shift+drag (snap to Vx) or as somebody else suggested ,look at the posiotn of a vx in the item editor mark down it`s XYZ and then edit another vx to match those numbers . finaly you should unadjoin the surface (alt+a) then readjoin them "a"

I`m not totaly sure how far Alex programed in the directory structure for a gob.
You may have to make a gob your self to put those in.
But if you want to pick the texture mats you would have to put them in the project directory .

I`ll let CogKing or somebody else answer that one haven`t looked at that myself.
