I cannot no matter how hard I try figure out how to make complex collision models ($concave and that stuff). It's always going '1 convex part only' and I cannot ever get it to work. I worked with shade smooth, vertex groups, this, that, nothing
I'm literally getting sick from this bs and need some help before I throw my computer out the window in utter rage
I had some similar problems with complex collision models, but I figured it out with this link : [URL]https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Modeling_props_with_Blender#Complex_collision_models[/URL]
So basically, you separate the collision model parts you wish to act as collisions, smoothshade them individually (in separate objects),
and finally, joining them together (Object mode, select multiple objects, CTRL+J) and exporting it as .SMD.
There's a .qc code inside the link, which you can use to test out the complex collision you just made.
I hope this helped!

In 3ds Max, you use smoothing groups to separate the collision models to make out more complex model, but Blender doesn't use smoothing groups,
so separating them is a workaround for smoothing groups for creating a complex collision model.
I tried that, but in blender 2.66, I can't seem to find this shading. Or are you using 2.66 as well and I'm just blind?

I'm using 2.65 myself.
You can find the Smoothshading from the toolbar from the left

IT WORKS! Thanks man! It's so simple, but the valve wiki has it worded really weirdly. Your explanation was a LOT simpler to understand. Thanks again!
No problem. I'm glad I could help :)
