Source Engine

monster_furniture is a point entity available in Half-Life, Half-Life: Opposing Force, and Half-Life: Blue Shift. Used in scripted sequences (scripted_sequence and aiscripted_sequence) involving furniture models.

Key Values

Note:Some keyvalues, spawnflags, or effect flags might not affect a monster, based on the functionality and coding of the monster.

Animation Sequence (editor) (sequence) <integer>

Model (model) <model path>

Model to display (MDL, BSP, or SPR). Relative to mod folder.

Colormap (colormap) <integer>

Works like the deathmatch recolor system, wherein this KV equals (bottomcolor * 256) + topcolor. This value can be calculated using .

Tip:In Sven Co-op, the topcolor and bottomcolor KVs are available to be used instead, for clarity.

ZHLT:

Copy lighting from (VHLT+) (zhlt_copylight) <targetname>

Copies the lighting from the named entity to the nearest lightmap luxel below this entity's origin.

Tip:To avoid having the copied lighting visibly affecting the brush lighting, put a 16x16x1 func_detail with zhlt_noclip enabled directly below this model's origin. Texture the top face with black_HIDDEN, and the rest of the faces with SKIP. If the player or any other MDL entity can go above this model, place another identical func_detail above this model's origin to reduce the chance of extraneous models being lit weirdly.

Note:Not compatible with entities using the effect flag EF_INVLIGHT.

Model shadows (UMHLT, SDHLT) (zhlt_studioshadow) <boolean>

Enable to cast shadows from MDLs found in the model KV.
