multiple questions

hi,

what entity do i use to place barrles, i've tried prop physics and prop physics multiplayer but they don't work, what do i do wrong?? :s

and

how do i make those lovely iron fences??? (or any onther fences?)

prop_physics and prop_physics_multiplayer are the right entity's... you've just got to browse for a suitable barrel model.

Fences? prop_static. Again, it may take some time to find a suitable model.

There's an example map provided with the SDK on this bytheway. sdk_prop_types or something like that. Worth a look.

CP, you smart ass! :biggrin:

Thanks, i had a similar question about this like BioPulse. Neat.
So, prop_physics are used for barrels and stuff. But what about explosive barrels? Are they using prop_physics too?

thanks m8

realy helped me :smile: no ican add detail to my map too :smile:

I believe explosive barrels are the same entity, just depends on the model you choose.

Anyway, you can check out the example map that came with HL2DM for things like this too. There are quite some explosive barrels in there, plus some more funny things to play with.

Uhm, where are these example maps located? In what directory? All these Steam directories drives me crazy. Dizzyness

The SDK example maps are in
steamapps/<username>/sourcesdk/sdkcontent/maps. You might wanna
place the explosive barrels (and breakable props) in your map as
prop_physics_respawnable so that they respawn some time after they have
broken.

I dont see a prop_physics_respawnable in the dropdown box. Are you saying i cant just type it in and it will work?

i think u should tie it to an entity then choose respawnable!!??!!

just shoot it :wink: :ar15firing:

That wasn't the most helpful answer Dark Killer :razz:

What mod are you mapping for Tyman? If its HL2DM then you should
certainly see prop_physics_respawnable in the drop down list, but
remember it is a POINT entity and not a BRUSH entity. I'm not sure if
the same entity exists for CS:S or HL2.

Yes its HL2DM and i guess im using brush. How do i use point?

How do i tie a brush barrel to a point entity. Im new

Well...if you have the barrel already, then it's already an entity. Point entities are things made with the Entity Creation tool or whatever (the lightbulb icon) and the Brush Entities are made by creating the brush you want with the Block tool and going Tie To Entity.
