    Hi guys,


    I'm actually working again on source and I met some troubles. Trying to compile map with func_instance, they are fine in hammer but they are not working in game. Also I have this message in console :

    Attempted to create unknown entity type func_instance! Can't init func_instance

    Looks like the engine doesn't know func_instance BUT, I'm using "source SDK base 2013 Singleplayer" that should have the instance system working (read that several time on the web)

    Somebody already experienced that ?

    Ridiculous that you have to use external, homebrew, tools for stuff that should run out of the box.
