I finally succeeded compiling my map!
But what did I found out? Some props are missing!
I checked in hammer - I didn't deleted them...
So What happend to them?

Thanks in advanced to the people that will help me find my missing props!

The only thing I can think of is the render mode setting. Open up the info window for your props and see if Render Mode is set to Normal

The props you used that aren't showing up - Are they prop_static? If so, not all models were made to be static. Try changing some of them to prop_dynamic with movement disabled and see if you can see them.

Otherwise, are you getting any errors in the console?

I'm pretty sure the models that are not visible are supposed to be prop_static (mining crates and barrels) and there are no errors...

And other barrels are visible...:unsure:

Select one of the models and go into the model browser. To the right, theres a tab named "info", where you can see, which type of prop that model can be.

For example, if only static is checked, the model has to be prop_static, if physics is checked it must be prop_physics. (prop_dynamic works for almost all models).

The compile log should also say something about wrong prop types, also errors in the console.

Did you copy the models from any other decompiled maps? That could be a problem.
