$keyvalues

The QC command $keyvalues embeds a block of arbitrary keyvalues into the .mdl file.

Note:Since the values are arbitrary, studiomdl can't check that they are correct when it compiles the model.

Programmers can access the $keyvalues block with modelinfo->GetModelKeyValueText(GetModel()) and the KeyValues class.

Syntax

$keyvalues
{
    keyvalue data
}
