The QC command $model specifies a reference SMD file to be used as part of a complex model. Simple models (including all $staticprops) should use $body.
Note:Not to be confused with $model (VMT) which is used in VMT files.QC syntax
$model "<name>" "<filtepath>/<reference_model>.smd"
<name>- A unique identifier for this model.
<filepath>/- Path to a reference.smd, relative to current directory.
<reference_model>- Name of reference.smd.
Example
$modelname "weapons/shell.mdl" $cdmaterials "models/weapons/" $model "Shell" "shell.smd" $sequence "idle" "shell.smd"
Options
eyeball
<name>- Name of eyeball, used to match eyelid rules. For humans, use
righteye: andlefteye:. <bone_name>- Name of bone that the eye is parented to, typically the head.
<X> <Y> <Z>- World location of the center of the ball of the eye.
"<material_name>"- Material name to use when searching for vertices to consider as the "white" of the eye used in dynamically texture mapping the iris and cornea onto the eye.
<diameter>- Diameter of the ball of the eye.
<angle>- Default yaw offset from "forward" for iris. Humans are typically 2-4 degrees wall-eyed. Not setting this correctly will result in either your characters appearing cross-eyed, or if you've compensated by misplacing the ball of the eye, them not tracking side to side. iris materialMaterial to use as the iris texture.
pupil_scale- World scale of the iris texture.

eyelid
<name>- Base name of the eyelid flexcontroller. This is combined with the "lowerer", "neutral", and "raiser" options to build the piecewise blend positions of the eyelid.
"<expression_file_name>.vta"- The name of the file to find the morph targets.
lowerer <frame> <height>- One of the three options, the frame number in the
expression_file, and the distance above or below the center of the pupil that polygon edge of the eyelid crosses the white of the eye. neutral <frame> <height>- One of the three options, the frame number in the
expression_file, and the distance above or below the center of the pupil that polygon edge of the eyelid crosses the white of the eye. raiser <frame> <height>- One of the three options, the frame number in the
expression_file, and the distance above or below the center of the pupil that polygon edge of the eyelid crosses the white of the eye. split <distance>- Where to start, on the opposite side of the "0" line, for finding vertices that belong to this eyelid morph target.
eyeball <eyeball_name>- Name of the eyeball that will drive this eyelid's flexcontroller.
