$staticprop

The QC command $staticprop specifies that the model being compiled does not have any moving parts. This allows several useful optimisations to take place, so should be used whenever possible.

Note:The command does not have anything to do with prop_static.

Effects

• Collapses all bones
• Allows VRAD to cast shadows using the collision model
• Todo: Other?

QC syntax example

$modelname		"weapons/shell.mdl"
$staticprop
$cdmaterials		"models/weapons/"
$body		shell	"shell-ref.smd"
$sequence	idle	"shell-idle.smd"	// A default animation is still required

Note how the command does not accept any parameters.
