models location Created 19 years ago2004-08-27 13:52:14 UTC by rat808

i was wondering where i put models that i wanna put into a map but are not in the cs .gcf. what directory that i can read it properly.??? :

Steamappsmoddirmodels should work

SteamAppsgamedirmoddirmodels.

but i loaded the half-life models into that directory too and they will not read. how do i get custom not in the cs.gcf to work. thats what i want. i wanted to see the loader.mdl but it wont load it. where do i put the half-life models to read in cs?

howcome when i try to load env_snow, rain, or fog in my map it crashes?
also when i try to load the models too!? really F**king wierd. never had this porb with 1.5.

The models need to go into counter-strikecstrikemodels. I have no clue to as why they are not working, what entity are you using to place the models in your map.

Isn't env_fog only in spirit? Or is that in CS 1.6 now too?

i dunno if it is only in spirit. i have a new up to date cs 1.6 .fdg
but it wont load any custom sounds or sprites either...
oh ya! im using cycler_sprite to place models. it works with models that are from the cs.gcf but not with any custom or half-life ones. im starting to really hate steam and hammer3.5b.. any clue on what to do or where to put everything?

I know where they should go, in your CScstrikemodels folder, but if the game crashes when you try to use custom models, something seems wrong...and I have no clue as to why this would cause a crash.

Perhaps...does your steam folder have an @ in the pathname anywhere? (ie most people's username folders are actually email@adress.here.)

there is no @ in it! it's just 808rat.. and it doesnt crash anymore. it just stops loading the map and goes back to main menu. do you know where i could find hammer 3.5 to steam setup guide for cs? i must be a dumb hawaiian not to figure this damn problem out! or is there a .gcf program that allows me to edit and save the .gcf? :

No, GCFs are not editable.

When it stops loading the map and goes back to the menu, does it say anything in the console?

I've had this happen before, but restarting HL seemed to fix it for me...

it stops because it wont load my custom sounds, sprites, and models.. how gay is that! and i cant get anyone to tell me where they need to be so they will read right. also i need someone to tell me what file to select the models from in hammer with the cycler_sprite. also with the sounds, and sprites.

sorry for all the threads trying to fix my gay steam problem. ill make it up to u guys later. when it works ill make a TWHL custom map.

Custom resources go in the same places as before in SteamAppsyourem@i.lhalf-lifemoddir.
