Prop_Dynamic as a Button? Created 17 years ago2007-12-13 22:52:17 UTC by Slayerwraith

I'm trying to use the Switch001.mdl from portal as a button, but can't seem to get it to activate. Sorry for the newbie question, but haven't worked with source but for 2 days. Any help would be nice.

Func_door
Prop_dynamic

The model just idles and doesn't activate.

Have you tried working with a func_button instead of a func_door perchance? Also, you should be covering the func_button in nodraw and placing it in front of the prop - the button prop dynamic does nothing more than animate and appear to be being pressed; the game logic is handled in the button entity.
