Make sure the description of your new 3do matches what it is called in your template. The part in the template where it says " # DESC my3do " can have any name you want. But the next part where the 3do's name shows up has to be exactly what the 3do file is named. Next, make sure that the 3do is in the directory your project is in. Also it is a good idea to copy the whole relative template there too. For example, if you have a project called "lost ship" for example. Make a folder (usualy in Jed's main folder, but doesn't have to be) called "lost ship". Then put all the level data in there, your .jed files, gob/goo whatever. My directory structure looks like this : D:/Jed/projects/23rd
All my custom 3dos and mats are in that last folder, and I copied the original mots.tpl there to append my new templates to. That way I never screw up the original template files that came with Jed. If your proect is a JK one, you would copy master.tpl there instead of mots.tpl. I hope this helps, good luck!
