-''void'' '''setmodel'''(''entity'' e, ''string'' modelPath)
+====Syntax:====
+<code>void setmodel(entity e, string path)</code>
-== Usage ==
+Sets the model an entity will use.
-Sets the entity's model. Valid models must be precached at map load in order to be usable. This sets both the '''model''' and '''modelindex''' fields. The model index is the index within the cache which is not exposed to QuakeC, but can be set directly by storing the value and changing it. The model name and model index do not need to match as '''modelindex''' takes priority.
+====Parameters:====
+:<code>e</code> - The entity who's model is being set
-For BSP models this also sets up the size information of the entity meaning <code>setsize()</code> should not be used on them. BSP entities will automatically store their model name in their '''model''' field on map load, so calling <code>setmodel(self, self.model);</code> will work for things like platforms, doors, and trains.
+:<code>path</code> - The path to the model file to set.  Can be a model (.mdl), sprite (.spr) or map (.bsp)
+====Returns:====
-To clear a model, setting '''model''' to ""/'''string_null''' or setting '''modelindex''' to 0 will work.
+:void
-=== Parameters ===
-*''e''
-:The entity whose model is being set.
-*''modelPath''
-:The path to the model file to set.  Can be a model (.mdl), sprite (.spr) or BSP (.bsp).
-== Example ==
- void monster_my_monster()
- {
-     // Make sure the model is precached first in the initialization function
-     precache_model("progs/mymonster.mdl");
-     // Set the entity's model to mymonster.mdl
-     setmodel(self, "progs/mymonster.mdl");
- }
