Hi,
I'm a bit intimidated by all the warnings about asking stupid questions, and this seems like the most basic stupid question, however, I've searched all over the tutorials, forums and the web with no luck.
I've download a model from here... Fishy's P38 Lightning... I've unzipped the files into the appropriate directories:
\sourcesdk_content\hl2mp\modelsrc\fishy\vehicles
\sourcesdk_content\hl2mp\materialsrc\models\fishy
The items do not show up under the WorldModel Library for me to select... What am i missing?
Please, if this is a simple problem I should have found in the forums, give me the key words to search for and I'll do the leg work.
Thank you very much,
OFC_Bullseye

Try extracting them in the models and materials folders in C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\USERNAME\half-life 2 deathmatch\hl2mp\

he is correct
the sourcesdk_content folder is where you put raw files to be made into source files by developers
the only problem with steam updating things every week is it doesent give the developers an incentive to playtest thier work, so we do it for them
