prop_coreball overview.

AltNames: This entity is also tied to prop_scalable. Difference is that this entity forces use of model "models/props_combine/coreball.mdl"

Entity Description

It is a large combine energy core seen in ep1_citadel_03 without collisions.

For the core to be rendered correctly, it must be placed exactly at the (2688, 12139, 5170) location, as this value is hard-coded in the Core shader for normal vector computation.

Note:This is fixed in

This entity evolved into prop_scalable in Half-Life 2: Episode Two . As of the Orange Box, prop_coreball is deprecated as an alias for prop_scalable, which uses the core ball model by default. Use prop_scalable if you would like to use the scaling inputs below with other models.
