I have covered this before, hidden away in map making part 2, but it's worth a tutorial on its own.

Very short and simple but I show you how to add static and physics objects in the Source SDK, using...

prop_static

prop_physics

If you want the same sort of physics seen in proper maps such as de_dust2, make the barrels prop_physics_multiplayer . Apparently it doesn't slow down your computer as much but it's annoying and you can get stuck on them, so I avoid them.

How do i make a grenade with lines after it, like its blue, but it dissappears after like 2 secs, how do i make them ?

@MrHabbohotelguy You mean, a beam of light that follows a moving object? I can't remember the exact entity, might be env_lightglow

[55watawata]

When i put in props almost all don't show up. I've tried to use things like the master interface from HL2, a zombie ragdoll, etc. The only one that has worked is a light... I guess the animations are screwing things up. Maybe I need to use scripted sequence? Any suggestions?

@55watawata If you browse the model list, it should have info regarding the types of prop entity that work with the model selected.

prop_physics

prop_static

dynamic

Don't mean to complain, but when i put in some prop statics: Wire spout, fence and vent corners and cargo containers, they don't shoe up in the game.

[igottehgoodstuffz]

Why is it that I have things placed, and they show up in the editor, but they refuse to load when I test out the level?

[SomeUntakenUsername]

When I do prop_detail and test my map, all the props turn into the big red ERROR. How do I fix that?
