All entities or just props? Because env_spritetrail works just fine as a parented entity.

Back in 2012, there were several plugins/mods breaking TF2 Economy, by giving Fake visible Hats & Weapons to players, including unusual, because of that valve added a check inside the client binary, and make every NON VALID entity WITH A MODEL invisible.

The only allowed parented and visible entities are the one given by the item servers to the players (i.e weapons, hats).

Anything else parented to a player via a map/plugin or other non validated method, will result in the entity becoming invisible to everyone.

It only affects entities with a MODEL, particles/trails will still remain "visible".

Attempting to make parented entities with model visible to other players is breaking Valve's policy, and may result in your server getting blacklisted.


And before you ask:
DO NOT ASK HOW YOU CAN MAKE PARENTED ENTITIES VISIBLE HERE! NO ONE HERE WILL HELP YOU EVEN IF THEY KNOW!

That would work, but it will look laggy, oh and same as above don't use that to make fake weapons/hats I think they will also blacklist your server if you do.
