hello did you try to compile your model with the $autocenter command ?
https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/$autocenter it seem you can create an attachement point and define it to be the origin point of the model. the hull of all prop is build on the boundary box data, if there is no hull definition into the ai_hull.cpp and .h/ files. also you can change the value of the hull, like when the npc/player is crouching, the height value is rehandled by the cod,e to get 50% less on the height axis. //Red Jurassic Life : http://jurassic-life.game-lab.com 2012/8/24 m...@tobiasbaumann.net <m...@tobiasbaumann.net> > ** > Care to elaborate on where you put that code? > > Thank you, > Tobias > > edman747 <edman...@gmail.com> hat am 24.
