Could someone help me with adding Models (.mdl's) to a map in Hammer. I've searched and read some tutorials.
I know you add env_model entity then right-click on it. I select model name and browse to the model I want in my STEAM/dod models folder. The map will compile but I get an error when I try to run it. Please help. (I know the error has something to do with the models because when I delete the env_model entities and re-compile, the map will run.

Would help if you posted the error you get - Hard to tell what the problem is just from what you explained there ...

Sounds like it can't find the model your referring it to point to.

The model must be referenced from the dod/models folder

Thks for the help, I got it working. Now I need help with environmental lighting. Please read my other thread if you think you can help.

okay,im no expert at mapping but i think you guys missed the fact that he may not of extracted the files needed with gcfscape.This is wot i did:
installed dod 1.0
updated it to 1.3 via steam
used gcfscape to extract the files(wads,models,sounds,sprites,grx)
placed these extracted files into my original dod folder
and set up hammer using the original settings.

Sorry guys,i may be wrong but this worked for me as ive had my map test run on steam,with models,no problems.like i say,im no expert(far from it),just puttin wot i did down,hopin itll help.
