StudioMDL is the commandline compiler for GoldSrc MDL models. You can either run it via the command line or drag and drop a .QC file onto it, or ideally use 
Crowbar as your GUI.
Command line arguments
- -t <texture.bmp> : Globally replaces all textures in model with specified one.
- -r Tags reversed normals in compile output console; example: triangle reversed (0.748195 0.949818 0.839380)
- -a <angle> : set vertex normal blend angle override.
- -h Dump hitbox information to compile console; example: $hbox 0 "atm" -10.49 -15.81 0.00 10.49 15.81 91.87
History
- 2002 -
Half-Life SDK release (cannot compile Counter-Strike models or use 9-wayblends) - 2003 -
Counter-Strike version, allows for compilation of 9-way blending feature - 2003 -
Day of Defeat version adds support for Masked transparency and Additive $texrendermodes for textures - 2011 -
Xash3D studiomdl adds support for Xash3d-specific features and texture tiling. Not recommended for vanilla GoldSrc. - 2017 - "DoomMusic" version has better UV accuracy, and adds bone preservation feature. It automatically pads npot textures to the next power of two to prevent pre-2019 builds of GoldSrc from rescaling the textures.
- 2016~2019 -
Sven Co-op SDK compiler allows for UV accuracy, UV tiling, bone and attachment preservation features, sven specific features like higher texture & chrome mode sizes. Also added additional $texrendermode commands. Can be used for vanilla GoldSrc as long as you don't use the higher resolution features
Bug:Newer versions of Sven Co-op StudioMDL have a bug which results in rotated or otherwise misaligned cboxes. The 2018 version, which does not suffer from this bug, can be found here (direct download). [todo tested in ?]
