Hi,

I've got a big problem, when I create a new object it kind of replace the one from who I cloned it, you can see the pictogram of the object from who I cloned it but when you click on it, nothing happens, I think it is a problem with the object data, but I'm not sure.
The object I created does well, but I've got my own website now so the ones that download my sets, wont like this :(

You need to give your objects new GUIDs. Have you followed a beginner tutorial for creating objects? I recommend JWoods' object tutorial in the tutorial section. That explains getting new GUIDs and all the other basics about object creation.

You need to give all the Object Data new GUIDs, the difference with the one with no numbers in the name is that with that you also need to update MMAT. But all GUIDs need to be replaced or the object will conflict with the original. Make sure you double-check the steps in the tutorial.

You do not need a new GUID for recolors. There is no OBJD in a recolor package anyway...

I think he meant he had a problem with recolors of his own custom objects not working. Not updating the MMATs would do that.
