$qcassert is a QC command which will stop a model from compiling if a condition is not what it is expected to be.

Todo: Which Source games other than Counter-Strike: Global Offensive support this?

Syntax

$qcassert <condition> <arguments> <bool>

If the result of the condition is not equal to the boolean specified, the compile will fail, informing the user of the result of the assert.

Currently, there are only 2 conditions.

  • boneexists (takes bone name and model source name)
  • importboneexists (takes bone name)
Todo: What, exactly, does importboneexists do?

Example

$qcassert boneexists "whatifgaming" "official.dmx" false

If there is a bone in the DMX file "official.dmx" named whatifgaming, compiling will cease. Otherwise, the model will compile as normal.
