Models not showing in VHE

Ok so i started mapping 2 days ago, call me a n00b call me whatever, but i am not here to be flamed i am here for help.  I had some problems with a map that i made which forced me to system restore.

When i did i lost all the models on VHE, likethe vending machines and stuff and was wondering how i could get them back. I tried re installing the cs_expert fgd or whatver it is.

 

Please help - Ben

 

Edit: oh and how can i add models to VHE?

i would be curious to see a map so badly made it would force a person to do a system restore.. :eek:

vending machines are -not- models. They are prefabs & tbh, a vending machine is a rectangle brush with textures fitted to it, just look for the textures.

Its generally best you try to map without using prefabs imo, Use them to learn perhaps, but not use them in your own maps for release.

I'll make my own for release but this is like my first attempt, how can i get the prefabs to show up again then?

 

Usually i get a dropdown with like Old, random and a bunch of other stuff but its not in there.

first off, be sure you have a folder called "prefabs"

second, hit the button "add" prefab... and the drop down option should appear..

to add new ones, you have two options.. copy/paste them into your map.. or create them into new .ol files and put them into the prefab folder..

 

hope this helps..

No-one is ever gonna get called a "n00b" without reason, dont be so paranoid and defensive.. we are here to help and encourage!

Also, no offence, but your question seems a little vague and sketchy..
