# Editing 3D Objects

**Some of our MLOs offer the ability to edit 3D objects and customize them to your needs.**

**If you don't know how to work with 3D editing software — no worries!**\
**Just contact us by opening a ticket. For a small extra fee, we’ll edit all the files you need.**\
\
⚠️ **WARNING:** The process described here is done using **Blender version 4.1** with the **Sollumz 2.7.1** add-on.\
\
To understand the basics of how Blender and the Sollumz add-on work, we recommend checking out dedicated Discord channels and tutorials on YouTube.<br>

1. To start, you need to **export the XML file** of the object using **CodeWalker RPF**.\
   (Editable objects are always marked in the ReadMe file or found in folders named **"Editable"**.)

Once in Blender, **import the object**, find any missing textures, and edit it according to your needs.\
Some objects, like **3D text**, must stay within specific bounds — meaning, it’s best to keep the object no larger than the original one to ensure it fits perfectly in its intended place.

After finishing work on the model, remember to **add the missing UVMap and Vertex Color** (if needed).

Next, import the edited object back into **CodeWalker**. If everything was done correctly, you’ll see the modified version of your model in the preview window.\
Now simply **replace the original file** with your edited one in the folder specified in the ReadMe file.

If you can't locate the file, the easiest way is to **search for its name** inside the MLO folder using File Explorer.
