Hi! I have a problem with this construction:


This is how it looks in-game:


It's actually supposed to explode, but it only breaks into violet pieces of error:


Do you have any idea why? smiley

Did you check the flags? Maybe it says something like "Explosive"

Im afraid not. Maybe this function is obsolete. I loved using it in my first HL1 map where I put in lots of explosive crates and barrels lol.

I noticed that, too. Maybe we both missed a flag or value, but if everything fails, just use an env_explosion triggered "On Break".

The violet is probably a missing cubemap reflection. Place env_cubemaps in your map, run "buildcubemaps" in-game, make sure sv_cheats 1 is set and restart the map. There should be a billion tutorials on that by now.

well I got the purple away with the cubemap thing, but these pieces are still too small and there's no explosion.
P.S. I decided to make a manual explosion and change the value to cinderblock although it doesnt really fit the material it looks much better.

Change the prop data to metal.large or metal.medium.

I did. It had no effect whatsoever. smiley

The only way you get them to look 100% correct is making your own prop and gibs models. It's a ton of work, though.

I think the problem was that the function is deactivated on TF2 like many many other functions. smiley
