Make sure you are using model_static. While the model isn't solid, and you'll have to manually draw in the clip brushes to make it so, it should light correctly.

Had this problem with Narshadda.

 

Did you use misc_model, or misc_model_static?

 

For some reason, using misc_model doesn't work well with shaders that have specular so I use misc_model_static.

Hmm i made one now but... There is only a red box :/ In enities i made a model and... red box. This means that  will see a ship in the game?

[therfiles]

Yes. Make your model a misc_model, position it in real-time, and then change the classname to misc_model_static. It will then change to a red box, but it will appear in game, just where you placed it.

Ok i have it ^^ Now how do i make it solid? And one question ... Is there any way to make a for example cultist as a stanidng model? Or Protocol droid?

[therfiles]

To make it solid, you have to recreate the model's geometry with brushes. When I've done it, it's been rough, but that's ok. You just want to get a rough outline of the model and texture those brushes with the clip texture or the physics clip texture, found in the system folder.

(You could also give it spawnflags 1 if it's for SP, I think)

Spawnflags 2 is auto-clip but...

 

1) Try to avoid as creates a whole load of brushes which will make you hit your brush count really fast.

2) I dont know if it works on static models.

Many thanks guys for help ^^

It is possible to make a model of NPC as a statue, either by making a md3 object from glm model, or via scripting (adding such parameters to the character as invincibility, ignoring pain, enemies, no taunts, one animation, with endless timeframe, etc). It was made on a certain level of one of the SP mods, though I wish I remembered the title of that mod (not that bad by the way).

[Langerd]

Hmm I saw that the misc_g2model can be used for this. But how to make it work?
