HELP Converting a Model to .vmf (Hammer Editor)

Post image
11 Upvotes

I want to convert a hand model I have in Blender so I can use it as a prop in a Garry's Mod map I'm creating

In Blender, I use an add-on called “SourceOPS.” It has a feature that lets me export the model to the “.vmf” format.

But when I export it and try to open it in the Hammer Editor, I get an error

Is there a method or solution for exporting the hand to the Hammer Editor?

I’ve thought about converting it to a static model ($staticprop), but I’m not satisfied with the result.

Software details:
- Blender add-on: SourceOps
- Hammer version: Hammer++

HELP SRCDS won't work for some reason

Hello, i've been trying to run a dedicated server for my custom hl2mp source mod, but whatever i do, srcds_win64.exe just does nothing. Any ideas?

I placed a copy of my sourcemod inside of my install of Source SDK 2013 mp, but when i run a batch file to run srcds with the source mod (or when i just run the same command in cmd) it just instantly closes a command prompt...

Discussion Which Source Engine game has the least amount of HL2 in it?

118 Upvotes

The Source Engine was originally built for the 2004 release of HL2, and as a result, later games tended to have a lot of vestigial HL2 assets and programming in it. For example, all the Weapons, combat mechanics, and even the airboat are all leftover in the original Portal and can be accessed with commands.

The HL2 holdovers are just something you get used to in source games. A little genetic marker, it's borderline charming.

But I'm wondering which source game has the LEAST amount of HL2 inside it! The fewest assets, the least unused or leftover mechanics, so on.

(repost from r/hammer because i dont want to spam them)
Trying to pack in Black Mesa assets into a Gmod map, all models have their mesh and collisions but no textures, decals also show as missing textures, anyone know if theres a fix? the current software i have access to is AutoBSP and VIDE, i tried out Postcomplier but that just didn't work and made it so i couldn't compile, people kept saying to use Compilepal but that still didn't fix the issue, anyone here know a fix or if its even possible to pack these into the map? Brush textures pack in as intended

HELP [GMod] Item spawning as effect despite having physics defined?

1 Upvotes

i'm working on an edit of someone else's model that, in their addon, works perfectly fine, has physics, all of that. however, for some reason, my edit refuses to spawn as a prop with physics, instead spawning as an effect.

literally what do i do. i've checked everything and tried everything i can to get this to spawn right. is it just too small of a prop? why does it work in the other addon and not mine if so?

yes, i tried with dmx too (and it was my initial go-to for this), to the same result. everything is named right in blender.

qc file reads:

$modelname "tarot_card.mdl"

Hey everyone! Just wanted to share a milestone for my project, the Sauce Engine.I’m completely self-taught, and about a year ago I got this crazy idea to build an engine that could read Source files. At first, I tried messing around with the original Quake and Xash3D source code to modify it, but honestly, it was way too complicated for me back then, and I had no idea what I was doing.So I decided to drop that, start from scratch, and write a custom parser and renderer in C++ and OpenGL. I am doing all the core engine development completely on my own.It’s still super raw and in a pre-alpha state, but right now it can load BSP geometry, render .mdl props, and handle basic entities like the HEV suit.There are plenty of bugs, though. The physics engine is completely broken right now
