I can see a lot of work went into this. Great Tutorial This is something that has been on my "to figure out list" for quite a while, so I am glad that I don't have to spend the time now to figure it out.

Isn't this supposed to be models/props_lab/freightelevator.mdl?

Great tutorial, but unfortunatly my elevator is very messed up. It looks perfect in Hammer but when I run the map it is facing a diffrent direction, also when I press the button to start it the doors close then open again.

Can some one please help me?

I have one that has 4 buttons inside that you can press. Each one taking you to a specific floor. When on the floor calling for the elevator it shows up at your floor as well. More floors can be added as well.

I will post a link when I get it uploaded somewhere.
