I finnally got a chance to try and fix my problems regarding this import today.

I'm kinda new to the steam sdk and didnt trun off the auto updater, and it updated all my files. Now my entire sourcesdk file structure has been changed and the studiomdl points files to a new location.

The problem is the help files on valve-erc reference docs have a completely different file sturcture than the ones in the new update.

bin\studiomdl cstrike_sample_content\model_sources\cactus_01.qc is no longer a valid path.

My new command path seems like iot should be:

bin\studiomdl sourcesdk_content\cstrike\modelsrc\cactus_01.qc

but my *new* error message says:

Error opening C:\games\steam\steamapps\russimama\sourcesdk\sourcesdk_content\cst

rike\modelsrc\cactus_01.qc

It's starting its search at the sourcesdk directory but my files are no longer there.

How can I get this studiomdl to search for my QC where it is?

thx for all yoiur help guys, I finnally got my model in-game. WE should release our maps soon. probably 1.5 months.

My final problem was the export plugin, putting 'null' as my texture map, i edited the .smd files in notepad.
