Make sure body is large enough to be interactable.

Items also need an inventory image file, or else they will not be able to be picked up. Must be in .tga format and placed in the appropriate directory, as well as pointed to as the item's image file via the ModelEditor.

Did you provide a SubItemTypeName in the model editor?

Best place would be in the same directory as the entity file. However, i think the game goes mostly by file name and the resources.cfg file than the path provided in the entity file.

So how could i make this work then with the resources.cfg then?

It should work if it's somewhere within your custom story's folder. The game should take care of everything when loading your story.
