Additional player-related configuration can be found in the player-config part. Some of the settings can be used props or NPCs → See :group: Group: owner-name Supports in-game models as well as custom .MDL files. → Using MDL files in PAC Location This part can be found under: Right Click » Entity You can easily find it by clicking on the sign and typing entity.

Players using pac_hide_disturbing 1 won't be able to see it. Appearance no draw Makes the model invisible. draw shadow Makes the shadow under the model visible. inverse kinematics Enables Inverse Kinematics. This is mainly used to make arms follow the weapon properly, otherwise they will just float instead of actually holding the weapon. Disable this option if you want to pose each arm independently. Image Preview translucent — draw order Display order of transparent objects (alpha below 1). Models with higher draw order will appear in front of other models. material Changes the material of the entity. Click on to select. Custom materials and more advanced options are available through the :material: Material part. → Read More color Color of the model in R G B format in the 0 - 1 range. Values over 1 increase brightness. brightness Brightness of the model. no lighting Disables lights/shadows on the model. Also known as fullbright. no culling Forces the model to show from both sides. Also known as double face. invert Inverts the normals of the model. alpha Visibility of the entity. 1 means the entity is fully visible, 0 means it's invisible. → Read More skin Changes the skin (texturegroup) of a model.

Also acts as a hitbox for projectiles. Hitscan hitboxes need to be inside of the collision hull to work properly. Requires pac_modifier_size 1. standing hull height Height of the collision hull while standing. crouching hull height Height of the collision hull while crouching. Your character will temporarily crouch when editing this, that isn't a bug. hull width Width of the collision hull. Orientation size Overall size of the entity.
