How to add files to a vp file?
I downloaded ITDOH 3 but it won't run because the vp file is missing the scimitar assault bomber model, so I used VPView to open the ITDOH 2 vp file and extracted the model, but I don't know how to add it to the ITDOH 3 vp file

VPView looks at and extracts files from vps, but lacks the capability to alter them.

To add files you'd need Maja or VPMage.

I downloaded VPMage but I can't figure out how to add the file. Is there a tutorial or instructions somewhere?
