The $includemodel QC command is used to add an MDL file that this model will include at run-time. All new sequences and animations will be appended to the model.

  • Animations and sequences are processed in-order, so subsequent animations/sequences that have name conflicts will be ignored, and any references to .mdl local entry by the same name will be overwritten with the reference to a first one declared.
  • Included .mdl’s can have different bone ordering, but they need to have the same bone hierarchy and ikchain declarations. Currently there’s no run-time checking to verify they match.
  • Only animations and sequences are used from included .mdls. Currently models, textures, faces, attachments, etc. are ignored.

Example

  • This overwrites the normal police animations with a pointer to the shared animations
$modelname     Police_animations.mdl
$includemodel "player\male_anims.mdl"
