I import a prop_phys painting, it shows up and everything but i put it on the wall and then it just is automatically on the ground when i start it up. So i set the physics impact force to overide motion, so that it will only "move" or "fall" off the wall when it takes damage. But i set the option then comile the map again and the painting isnt there altogether! Am i doing something wrong? should i be doing this a different way? please help!

Ignore the "override" stuff and just check the "start asleep" flag. That will cause it to be static in the world until it is effected by something, such as a bullet, player collision, or physics collision. You can then give it a "minimum damage to hurt" value to stop damage under the given value from knocking it off the wall.

If you don't want it knocked off the wall easily by a player, I would think you could encase it with an invisible barrier to be destroyed when damaged. Just a thought..

can't you use a prop static or a prop_dynamic for that??

one of both is more or less a solid , so it'll stay in the air.

Bio, I think he wants the object to fall off the wall realistically. Requires a prop_phys* object.
