it's not a collision problem, it looks like you didn't include the parts, [del]or you rigged it improperly.[/del] I'm sure you're not trying to rig it though.

You need to make a folder called Greeter in yout garrysmod/garrysmod/models folder (as CMD/BAT file loading of studiomdl.exe doesn't make folders for you).

sorry about the double post, but now i fell into a new problem SMD MODEL Greeter_refrence.smd ERROR: too many indices in source: "Greeter_refrence.smd" ERROR: Aborted Processing on 'models\DRAGONSmodels\greeter.mdl' does anybody know what this means?

[url]http://kathar.net/hl2modding/errors.php[/url] Apparently you have too many verticies, what's the polycount on your model?

[QUOTE=Silver Spirit;25228070][url]http://kathar.net/hl2modding/errors.php[/url] Apparently you have too many verticies, what's the polycount on your model?[/QUOTE] uh 32,688 polys :(

[QUOTE=Colossal_Dragon;25228908]uh 32,688 polys :([/QUOTE] Yea, you need to dial that down a bit :P

[QUOTE=Silver Spirit;25229339]Yea, you need to dial that down a bit :P[/QUOTE] oh man :C

[QUOTE=Colossal_Dragon;25229637]oh man :C[/QUOTE] A prop should only be about 5K at most, more than that and your gonna have problems.

[QUOTE=Silver Spirit;25230645]A prop should only be about 5K at most, more than that and your gonna have problems.[/QUOTE] alright i remade it to about 6,930 polys, is that good enough?

[QUOTE=Colossal_Dragon;25232878]alright i remade it to about 6,930 polys, is that good enough?[/QUOTE] That sounds good ^^ you could always use the other one to bake a normalmap for it.
