Title: "Critical" flag for func_model
Post by: sk89q on July 14, 2008, 09:38:38 PM: Can there be a "critical" flag for models that will prevent a map from being loaded/played if there is a missing model? That way, you can't delete all the models and essentially have a wall hack (or a "tree hack," "forest hack," etc.).

Ultimately, I think a new map format where the models actually get compiled into the map's geometry is the better approach for this. I'm not sure if it's possible to implement this in a way that will require the models on current/older clients.

Already there. Good call.

Yeah. You can put it in the worldspawn. I don't remember what it is offhand.
