map2prop.fgd

Add the map2prop.fgd to your map editor’s game configuration to make use of the func_map2prop entity.

Attributes:

• Name (targetname) - Sets a name that can be referenced by child objects using the Template prop key.
• Exported model’s name (outname) - The name that will be used for the model file.
• Exported model subfolder (subdir) - The subfolder of the output directory the model and its assets will be placed in.
• Gamma (default 1.8) (gamma) - The value that will be used for the model’s $gamma QC command. Increasing the value will make the model darker, and decreasing the value will make the model brighter.
• Smoothing (smoothing) - The angle threshold in degrees for which edges will be smooth-shaded. More fine-grained control can be achieved using BEVEL and CLIPBEVEL brushes.
• Scale (scale) - Sets the $scale QC command for the model.
• Flags (qc_flags) - Sets the value of the $flags QC command for the model.
• Template prop (parent_model) - Set a parent func_map2prop’s Name here to use its model for this entity.
• Export as its own model (own_model) - Whether to export the prop as its own model or merge it with the worldspawn model. (NOTE: When using --mapcompile this keyvalue is ignored and all func_map2prop entities will always be exported as their own models).
• Chrome (chrome) - Whether to rename any textures with CHROME in the name to disable these receiving the chrome render mode by studiomdl.exe.
• Classname after conversion (convert_to) - The classname to convert this entity to when using --mapcompile. NOTE: One can use a classname not listed in the choices by simply turning off SmartEdit and typing in the classname as the value.
  • cycler (0)
  • cycler_sprite (1)
  • env_sprite (2)
  • item_generic (3)
  • monster_furniture (4)
  • monster_generic (5)

Flags

• Disable (1) - If set, this prop will be removed from the converted map
