I'm currently working on a map of a small WWII-era frigate or corvette (just something to put in my resume to demonstrate my mapping abilities) in the Hammer editor (Half Life 2: Episode Two), and I'm having a problem getting a certain prop to appear when I run the engine. In the box of the ship, there are several storage compartments, one of which is already filled with multiple 'kitchen_shelf001a.mdl' (the blue and silver shelves). The class is set to 'prop_static,' but it doesn't show up when I compile everything and run the engine. I already have the prop 'borealis_door001a.mdl' (the ship door) set outside, and it appears. Assistance is greatly appreciated.

Does the model 'kitchen_shelf001a.mdl' support static, or is it only a physics prop? The model browser should tell you.
Good luck with your ship!

Yep, that was it. I hadn't done that because I assumed a prop that size would be fixed (of course, I want them fixed, so I guess I'll have to get creative...) Does anyone know of any similar shelves that are static? I'm sure the combine had some in Route Kanal...
