So I downloaded the custom frontline tf2 pack, but when I open my map, The explosives (barrels, mines) don't load. does anyone have a good tutorial they can make (it would be good if it had pictures :)

You'll need to take the Frontline assets and put them in
"Steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\custom\custom_models_and_textures"
(the custom_models_and_textures is a folder that you must create, as it is not already there, it doesn't have to be called that, but name it something relevant so you know where to find it)
Then load up Hammer and they should be there.

I didn't work, but I think I know why

I said that wrong, it works in hammer, but when I go into the game, it doesn't appear. at all.

Oh, it might be a prop_dynamic/ prop_physics and can't be loaded as a prop_static which you might have it as.
