ERROR: 'EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION' (assert: 1) with flexes.

Hello, so, what I'm trying to do is add a flex to a pre-existing model, but no matter what studiomdl I choose, it returns with the same error.

Could someone help me with this?
The .vta is 56 KBs.

The cause of the 'EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION' could be varied,It's possible that one or more of your files were corrupt,or the model reach the limit that preseted by studiomdl,and even more possible causes that I don't know.
Provide us more information please?Such as uploading your source files.

It can't be the limit because it's the same barrel model as seen in Half-Life 2.

Here I fixed up the QC for you:

$ModelName "props_c17\oildrum001.mdl"

$model flextest "oildrum001_reference.smd" {
	flexfile "oildrum001_reference.vta" 
	{		// source of vertex animations
		defaultflex frame 0		// relaxed position
		flex "deform1" frame 1
		flex "deform2" frame 2
	}
	flexcontroller phoneme range 0 1 deform1
	flexcontroller phoneme range 0 1 deform2		// defines controllers that will appear in Faceposer etc.
	%deform1 = deform1
	%deform2 = deform2
}

I removed the $Staticprop line, removed the $Bodygroup lines, removed $rootbone " " from the $Collisionmodel line, and placed the $model and flex lines at the top just under $modelname.

$Staticprop and $Bodygroup conflict with flexes, $rootbone with no name can cause some errors, and $model and flexes need to be placed at the top of the QC under $modelname.

Thank you so much, I'll test it now.

It works!
