Hi,

Could anyone give me an example on how to make a wall "func_wall" going from for example (x,y,z) from (1.0, 1.0, 1.0) to (8.0, 28.0, 1.0) (the two lower corners) with a height of 20.0 and a thickness of 10.0 ?

there's...
create_entity("func_wall")

After that, for setting its origin and all I'm fine.
But how the heck to I set its dimensions?

I'm a bit lost

Thanks

Search for these function in include.
an example :

entity_set_size(ent, {-16.0, -16.0, 0.0}, {16.0, 16.0, 2.0})
or
engfunc(EngFunc_SetSize, id, {-16.0, -16.0, 0.0}, {16.0, 16.0, 2.0})

Note that your entity need a model to spawn at correct origin.

Is there a way to have an invisible model or something? I'd just like the wall to be invisible, but still solid.

Just set

PHP Code:

set_pev(iEnt, pev_effects, EF_NODRAW); 


on a wall entity and it will not be drawn, or in other words, it will be fully invisible.

Another question guys!
Is there a kind of dummy model I can use (since its invisible i absolutely dont care about the model used). I'm just not sure what to put inside the mdl field.

You may want to look at Walkguard for reference (and maybe it already does what you need): https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?t=55245

For a generic model you should use something from the default Half-Life which will ensure that it never has to be downloaded for any mod you want to support. Something like "rpgrocket.mdl" is often used for this purpose. Walkguard uses "gib_skull.mdl" for example.
