Get Crowbar, it's an acutally updated compiling/decompiling tool. Once you have the smd, you can get importer plugins for a bunch of modelling tools you can then save the model out from.

My stuff:

- Hammer Addons
Maps:
- Crushed Gel
- Gel is Not Always Helpful[/spoiler]

Blender outputs OBJ files out of the box. Reading smds though, you'll need the plugin.

The more you give, the less appreciated it will be received.
