===Source Prop Models===
<pre>
Important: Apparently you need a prop_data clause in your .QC file when compiling Source prop models 
(If you want a physics prop you could bypass the issue using prop_physics_override in Hammer)
</pre>
- My Source modeling pipeline -

Export as [[DMX]] (or [[Studiomdl_Data|SMD]]) with [https://www.blender.org Blender] using [[Blender_Source_Tools|Blender Source Tools]] > Compile model using [[Studiomdl]] (or [https://steamcommunity.com/groups/CrowbarTool Crowbar]) combined with a [[QC]] script file as input alongside the input model
