How to make a custom block?

Hey, anyone experienced with making custom blocks? How can I do that?

I want to be able to import models. Assetto Corsa has a Mt. Akina track mod, and apparently you can convert the .kn5 to .obj and whatnot.

So is there a way to import the .obj or whatever filetype it needs into the game? I want to be able to get the model in-game but I don't know how to really do that. Especially with like the textures and stuff.

There are different possibilities.
Some have been successful with Blender, others use the now built-in tool.

It depends a bit on what you want to achieve.
There are also some information and tutorials around (check the maniapark website for example).

Very basic information here:
Maniaplanet documentation about the importers: https://doc.maniaplanet.com/customization/importer

That was the thing, it was hard to really find anything on how to do it. The links you sent for the basic stuff didn't necessarily help that much, either. :?

It is only an entry point, you should search yourself a bit more.
At Maniapark there are lots of tutorials.
