I have compiled my first model in XSI, it shows up in hammer, but I can't for the life of me figure out why it won't show up as a static prop.
I have had this happen to me in Propper before I decided to try out modeling, and I originally thought that propper was the source of the problem.
It shows up as a physics prop, but NEVER a static prop.
I don't know where to start, so here is my .qc
[code]// Output .MDL
$modelname "yadda/cylinder.mdl"
// Directory of materials that the model uses
$cdmaterials "models/yadda"
// Model properties
// model is a static prop
$staticprop
// Make usable with prop_physics
$keyvalues

}
}

And lastly, my VMT
[code]"VertexlitGeneric"
{
"$basetexture" "models/yadda/cylinder"
"$surfaceprop" "Metal"
}[/code]
- I have compiled the model in studiomdl under source2007 bin.
- I can see the texture in game when I use it as a physics prop, so the texture works.
- The texture compression is set to RGBA8888
ANY help would be appreciated, I have been searching for help on this for months and by the sheer lack of results, I'm intimidated by modeling :saddowns:
In hammer, have you tried putting it as a prop_dynamic_override?
This is also a still prop, and it'll force it to be that entity
[QUOTE=one free man;24469697]In hammer, have you tried putting it as a prop_dynamic_override?
This is also a still prop, and it'll force it to be that entity[/QUOTE]
Of course I know dynamic and physics props work, but I want static props because their shadows are computed to the lightmap. Which comes in handy for mapping detailed objects into the world.
Try putting the $studio command at the top, or at least before the $staticprop.
Nevermind, got it to work by changing the .qc to the following.
[code]$modelname "yadda/cylinder.mdl"
$cdmaterials "models/yadda/"
$staticprop
$surfaceprop "Metal"
$scale 5
$body cylinder "cylinder.smd"
$sequence idle "cylinder_idle.smd" loop fps 15
$collisionmodel "cylinder_phys.smd"
{
$Mass 5
$concave
}[/code]
Perhaps it was the file extensions, or maybe it was the body name, either way it works now.
