my model isn't showing up in my map

[swiss_cheese9797]

Hi, seems like everytime I fix the problem at hand, a new one emerges. I finally got my pumpkin model's physics model working and it shows up in worldcraft. But when I test the map it's not there!

heres the entity setup I have.

prop_dynamic
world model: models/pumpkin/pumpkin.mdl
default animation: idle2 (i added soem custom animations to this model)

thanx for all you guys' help so far.

PS. my models in worldcraft are all black and aren't showing the effects of the environment light, is there a way to fix that?

im 90% sure its nothing to do with your map. its that you havent placed the compiled files into the right folders to work ingame.
its complicated to explain and hard to understand where exactly the files should be placed to work ingame.

and i would advise using my HL2 Compile Toolkit programme. however the latest version which i just released here yesterday is not working. and i am currently writing the fixes. but it will probs b ready in like a couple of hours so to save the bother of explaining i will just advise you to download and use my programme as soon as its ready

 

[swiss_cheese9797]

ok, for a prop_dynamic, what folder do i need to put this model in?

 

[Some0ne]

look over at my post, HL2 Compile Toolkit. download the programme and read 'how to use.txt' to understand how to use it to compile your model. then do the compiling of your model and tick the check box to copy to game. and your model will then work in your map.

note: carefully read the part in the how to use.txt about changing yuor qc file. you cannot use your current qc file exactly as it is.
