ive placed a npc_apc and put tracks and corner paths, and it never spawns once i start the level, how do you get it to spawn and do what you want it to do? like move to a certain area and etc?

yes i'm having that problem.
I think it has something to do with the model of the apc. I've created prop_physics with the model but still nothing. perhaps i should try prop_dynamic. did you try using the prop_vehicle entity and giving it a world model of the apc? I'm scared to try this as my previous attempts have crashed HL2.
***UPDATE***
ok i've made some progress.
Look for the model, "models/combine_apc_dynamic.mdl".
use a prop_ragdoll and make that the world model.
all this is going to give you is an apc that will react to the gravity gun and high force against it.
as for the apc driving around and shooting stuff, you might be able to make your ragdoll follow a path_track or something, i dont know. Perhaps this is a bug with hammer at the moment.
one thing is, theres a few things you'll need for an apc even if you DO get it to work. one of them is an "npc_apc_driver". maybe if you screw around with the "prop_vehicle_apc" entity and combine the two entities you might get some progress.
