I have tested out the latest model Whipper gave me, it still freezes in the air .

Quick test with prop_physic_create:

Working with physics for me. So it's related to your script for sure.
Did you manage to get any prop working with that script before?
How is the explosion caused? Maybe the Prop has to be explosive to work with the script.

If so, use this when compiling the model:

Code: Select all

$keyvalues 
{
prop_data
   {
   "dmg.bullets" "1.0"
   "dmg.club" "0.5"
   "dmg.explosive" "1.0"
   "health" "100"
   "explosive_damage" "80"
   "explosive_radius" "100"
   }
}


Change the values to whatever is suitable for your model.

Also, if you'd like to have gibs from the exploding model add this:

Code: Select all

$collisiontext {
   break { "model" "path\gib01.mdl" "health" "0" "fadetime" "15"}
   break { "model" "path\gib02.mdl" "health" "0" "fadetime" "15"}
        ...
   break { "model" "path\gibN.mdl" "health" "0" "fadetime" "15"}
}


Ofc. every gib has to be it's own compiled physic prop, add as many as you wish (within reasonable limits).

The model itself IS displaying but it gets stuck in the air, like it did before.

Normally once you release a bomb the model should "fly out of you" and continue acting like a normal object until it explodes, in my case it just freezes in the air once you release it then explodes.

I don't think the prop itself needs to be explosive,i think the plugin is the one making it like that, currently i am using "models/props_junk/PropaneCanister001a.mdl" which is working flawless, that is not an explosive prop as far as i know.

You can check the plugin i am using here https://forums.alliedmods.net/showthread.php?p=1789358 maybe that will help understand how it works.

Any more ideas guys ?

Decompile a few of the models that are working with the plugin and see if there are common things that all of them share e.g. the origin is always at the same spot, the size is compareable, physic model has the same ammount of pieces etc.
Also check if there are any common parameters&values in the .qc that might have an impact (especially the physics stuff like rotdamping etc.)
Once you fond out something, set up your model the same way and test it again.
