Ok I learn best by example but I havent been able to find the info I want. It's probably out there somewhere I just havent come accross it. Anyhow I have what seems to me will be a fun counter-strike source map and just want to add some simple stuff like stationary cars but cant find where they are. I think they just about have to be mixed in with all the cool stuff the SDK has in it but I am not having much luck. If anyone could help I would be forever in debt. (well maybe not forever but you get the idea) :wink:

I've got some other questions too but this seems to be my major stopping point right now.

They are Entities.

Click the light blub in hammer and place a "Prop_static" on your map.

It'll be a small purple box. double click it and select "World Model" in the properties.

Browse the files and choose the one you want! :biggrin:

Well I know about entities. I just cant find the ones I want. I know they must be out there because I see them in other player created maps. Maybe I am just looking in the wrong place. :confused:

Wait! I think I understand what you are saying! I can hardley wait to get off work and go home and try it out!!! I'll let you know! :biggrin:

you place models in your map with point based entities with the prop_
prefix. A car that dosn't move or a tree would be a prop_static.
