I am trying to retrieve the model being used on an entity.

In particular, I am filtering for prop_physics entities using FindEntityByClassname, but cannot find a method to retrieve the model for the entities returned.

Is there a function which will return a string for the model? I'm looking for that so that I can apply some rendermode and renderfx options to them, but for particular props which I can identify by the model used.

I see functions to set a model and precache a model, but none to get the model. If the cached models are indexed, is there a second function I may need to return the "models/<path>/<something>.mdl" for a given ent?

You can use a SDKCall with a CBaseEntity offset to retrieve it, I can't remember the exact name of it but a bit of searching and you'll find it.

Why that complicated, it's a datamap value:

decl String:m_ModelName[PLATFORM_MAX_PATH];
GetEntPropString(entity, Prop_Data, "m_ModelName", m_ModelName, sizeof(m_ModelName));

PHP Code:

new String:modelname[128];
GetEntPropString(entity, Prop_Data, "m_ModelName", modelname, 128);
if (StrEqual(modelname, "some_model.mdl"))
 PrintToChatAll("Pika Pika");

Must of missed that. I stumbled across the offset while looking for something else, I never used it.

Thank you! I was wading though SDK calls seemingly forever. The info worked painlessly. Thanks!
