== Tutorial: Add custom gibs to your model ==

To add gibs you need to know some details:
Gibs spawn after a model reaches 0 health. Your model needs healthpoints > 0 and it must be vunerable to weapons.
To set the health of a model and modify weapondamage use the $keyvalues directive.
By adding [http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/$collisiontext $collisiontext] you can use custom gibs. Have a look at this example.
The 4 gibs are created from the original model called ''cactus1.mdl'' and fit exactly together. Place ''cactus1.mdl'' on the map as prop_physics or prop_dynamic.

'''This is the .qc code for the gibs.'''

$modelname "common\props_foliage\misc\cacti\cactus1_gib#.mdl"
$model "cactus1_gib0" "cactus1_gib#.smd"
$keyvalues
{
"prop_data"
{
"base" "Flesh.Tiny"
"health" "1"
}
}
$cdmaterials "\common\nature\"
$surfaceprop "watermelon"
$scale 1
$sequence idle "idle.smd"
$collisionmodel "cactus1_gib#.smd" {
$mass 0.1
}

I replaced the # with the numbers (0-3) and got 4 models named:

cactus1_gib0.mdl
cactus1_gib1.mdl
cactus1_gib2.mdl
cactus1_gib3.mdl

'''Compile this model last. The important commands are $keyvalues (and prop_data) and $collisiontext.'''

$modelname "common\props_foliage\misc\cacti\cactus1.mdl"

}
}

$masscenter 0 0 -10
}

'''usage: break { "model" "<path>" options}'''

<path> path to the gib

options:
"health" "1" override the gibs health (set to 1)

"fadetime" "10" gib disapears after 10 seconds
''more options here''

[http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Prop_data '''usage prop_data''']
Make sure "prop_data" {"base" ###} is equal in all models.
