TFC player model in map

[TALOS]Smoke · 04-07-2013, 06:40 PM

So here's the deal, I want to put I guess you'd call it a display case in the map I'm working on. I've got one done with the HEV suit already, but I'd like to include a case with a TFC player model in it. I guess as a tribute to TFC. I'm not quite sure how to get the models into hammer.
any help would be greatly appreciated.

There are a few maps with FF model players in it already. I think the concmap charybda and FDA's tidalwave map have them.

I also know the TFC models are available to use instead of FF models, but I wouldn't know where to start as far as modeling is concerned, but I'm sure it can be done.

I'm trying to see if I can't find them some where, I think it'll look really cool if I can manage to do it.

Smoke, you can dl the tfc models here from Jesters thread
http://www.ffpickup.com/files/TFCplayers.zip

Then use a prop_dynamic I think if want to choose a certain pose or
prop_static for default pose.

If done right would look cool, in case lighting and the rest of the room slightly underlit to draw the eye more.

Ok, downloaded and extracted. Where do I have to put them to get them to show up in hammer?

It looks like the convention is to put custom models in this directory:

C:\Program Files(x86)\Steam\steamapps\sourcemods\FortressFore ver\models\props\mapname

Then just call the model from that folder in hammer and make sure you package them using pakrat or in the correct directory structure when you zip/rar the map files.

ian I got the models in hammer, but they aren't showing up. The box is showing up as if I'm viewing it from far away but there is nothing in there.
