Did you make a completely new one or did you edit one? Hopefully you didn't add any new vertices...

you basically use hmt to inject it into one of the [mod2] model tags

if you create one, you never want to add any vertices or the model will never be importable again, you only want to move vertices around

those 9 model things is because it has 9 LOD's (Levels Of Detail, it switches between each model so that if it's a mile off, you can still see it without your system wasting resources on rendering model details you won't see that far away)

basically you just match up the number of vertices and indices for each lod to each .obj file
