I've recently gotten back into using hammer but have run across a few problems. The biggest of these is of resizing models such as the horse statue in HL2. Its been awhile since I've used hammer, but i'm pretty sure that it was possible to resize these things to where you could for instance make the horse statue fit on a desk in game. Am I just not remembering correctly?<html><head><link rel="stylesheet" href="themes/standard.css" type="text/css"></head><body topmargin=2 leftmargin=2>

i'm sorry, but that's exactly what's happening. the only way to
resize a model is to decompile it with a 3rd party decompiler, resize
the reference files, fix all the smoothing groups, and recompile it
again.

You need to resize the reference files? I remember you could set the
scale of the model from the qc file. Or does it screw-up the sequences?

true, you could just change some values in the .qc file, and not even open a model editor. but all of the vertices of a model should be re-welded after a decompile, so while the editors open for that, it's just as quick to scale the model there.
