I have created a "func_instance" for the gel-dropper and properly set up the variables. Because the model is not showing, I have reloaded Hammer. However, it is never showing.

How do I fix this?

Go into "map properties" in the map menu and in Paint in Map check Yes
EDIT: Found out it was about the model
Make your own gel dropper, Its very simple.

Usually the problem with this is that the paths are screwed up. Make sure you keep your vmf map files in your steamapps/common/portal 2/sdk_content/maps folder. And instances in steamapps/common/portal 2/sdk_content/maps/instances (possibly in yet another sub folder). Doing this should fix the problem.

Hope that helped :smile:
