comp_pack is an internal point entity available in Portal 2: Community Edition and TeamSpen's Hammer Addons.

It is a Point entity that works with the TeamSpen's Hammer Addons' postcompiler to forcefully pack selected models/materials/sounds/soundscripts into the .BSP file when compiling, essentially eliminating the need to manually pack files with Bspzip. This entity is removed on on map compilation and does not contribute to the entity limit. Multiple comp_packs can be used in conjunction to pack multiple files into the BSP.

Warning:Always compile the map first to check and see if the file you want already got automatically packed by the postcompiler. This should only be used if the file you need refuses to get automatically packed.
