Randomly generated detail sprites aren't doing what I need them to do. Is there a way to manually place detail sprites given that prop_detail only supports models?

What exactly aren't they doing for you?
You should be able to use a prop_detail_sprite to place them individually, but I haven't used it recently, don't know if it's still supported properly.
There's also an entity in L4D called func_detail_blocker which is pretty self-explanatory, I'm not sure if it's in the other SDK's, though.

Yes, it's only in the L4D SDK but it a very important tool. You need it to stop detail sprites spawning under objects, like roads and buildings

I have no idea how to handle the keyvalues for prop_detail_sprite. Valve's DEV wiki explains fuck all about how to set one up.
Is prop_detail_sprite even supported under the Episode 1 engine?
I can't find a single instance of anyone ever mentioning it anywhere.
Edit: Sorry, that was probably rude.
I'm asking for help setting up a prop_detail_sprite. The keyvalue descriptions in Valve's DEV wiki are very confusing and I can't find any help elsewhere.
The setup is different from the detail sprite text file.
