Use the cycler_sprite... although several other entities will do the job too.
Also... Worldcraft? Use Hammer 3.4 (or 3.5b, in case you want to see the models in the editor. Beware as it's still a beta though).

Use the "cycler" entity and set its "sprite" as models/blah.mdl.

The cycler entity has the nasty disadvantage that it has quite a large bounding box that blocks the player, and giving grey blood when shot...
The cycler_sprite makes Hammer crash, but you can change the .fgd to avoid that by going to the lines that define the cycler_sprite and changing the word sprite to studio. Or at least so that it's similar to the cycler entity. Try some out and be sure to have a backup at hand in case things go wrong.

Oh, everything extra to render will have a little impact on the fps. But your 8 fps is very odd. You said official maps ran fine? How about making some test maps and see if they run fine?
Oh, and what are your system specs? And what render mode do you use in Half-Life (Software, Direct3D or OpenGL)?

You can load models in it... just fill in the relative path and model name in manually...

yeah ok.. and i dont know what i run.. i have no clue.. al i know is that i use steam!
yeah other maps run perfectly fine.. some even go up to like 70
but the maps i make always run so friggin slowly!!
like one map i made, i had a friend put it on his server.. and it went at like 12 fps for everyone, so its not just my computer.. its something wrong with my maps

Set that to Direct3D or OpenGL (favorable) and see if it runs. If it does, keep that setting, as it's faster than software mode (depending on your 3D-card) and doesn't have a artificial polygon limit.

Set that to Direct3D or OpenGL (favorable)When he says that he means that the latter (OpenGL) is better, but D3D is still better than Software.

oh that was a horible map though.. i think its because i carved/hollowed EVERYTHING! its just a bad map..
right now im working on a map called fy_sewers.. its turning out pretty good.. i did not over lap a single brush, so everything is exactly touching.. and it runs at a steady 20fps =D
but ill try the opengl thing thanx for telling me

And now, what happens? Better performance or not?
Again, what are your system specs? We really can't help you if you don't provide the necessary information about your situation...

what do u mean by system specs?
Posted 19 years ago2004-09-05 14:20:20 UTC
Post #56727
your computer specifications like performance rate, how much space ur comp has etc just the things that ur comp has (i cant seem to explain it well maybe a better person like pirate or monkey (4 got names) can help)

System specs = The stats of you'r computers parts.
So, what video card or processor do you have, how much RAM, what's your HDD size, etc.
