Texture issue

[Pi Mu Rho]

Ok, maybe I'm going insane, but if my texturename.vmt has

"VertexLitGeneric"
{
	"$baseTexture" "models/storm/storm"
	"$surfaceprop" "metal"
}

in it, then it should behave like metal (with regards to bullet impacts etc). Except it doesn't. I've even checked it against textures in the GCF that do behave correctly. What am I missing here?

Nevermind, fixed it.

The properties of a model (which is what the texture was on) define what it's made of, not the material. Bit annoying, but not a problem now.
