flagEnt[index] = CreateEntityByName("prop_dynamic_override");
if (flagEnt[index] != -1)
{
	DispatchKeyValue(flagEnt[index], "solid", "6");
	DispatchKeyValue(flagEnt[index], "model", "models/props/slow/bluetube/slow_bluetube.mdl");
	DispatchSpawn(flagEnt[index]);
	SetEntityModel(flagEnt[index], "models/props/slow/bluetube/slow_bluetube.mdl");
	TeleportEntity(flagEnt[index], vec, NULL_VECTOR, NULL_VECTOR);
	PrintToServer("Created flag");
	PrintToServer("Flag created at: %f %f %f", vec[0], vec[1], vec[2]);
}

Any ideas as to why the model wont spawn?

model isn't precached?

[r00tage]

In the method OnMapStart I have a method called PrecacheModels() which gets called.

In PrecacheModels(), the following line should have precached the model.

PrecacheModel("models/props/slow/bluetube/slow_bluetube.mdl");

Though my console has no errors about late precache or anything else.

wrong origin?

[r00tage]

Correct origin as well =/

It's possible your client doesn't have the required models, or simply didn't load them. (This sometimes happens for me on first attempts)

Try doing it with a standard model and see if it shows up.

And no need to set the model twice.


For the sake of completion: Is your location perhaps close to a wall/floor?
It's possible the angle causes it to appear inside that, or it simply fell through.

Not always, some odd occurances it simply doesn't show/prints an error in console.

Try without the solid flag. I attempted to spawn a prop_physics today and this flag (and others) made it invisible. Also does it show if you spawn as a "prop_dynamic" instead?

As said SetEntityModel() and DispatchKeyValue(index, "model", "blah.mdl") are the same.

have you tried to activate the entity after spawning it.
