'Warning: falling back to autodetection of vproject directory.' The mdldecompiler.exe is in the ep1 section of the bin folder, as it won't even start otherwise.
Sorry my computer's so stupid.

Thanks very much for the help!

The closest thing I have to a reward for ya.

How exactly do I run the sourcesdk thing?
Also, if I put it in the directory you mentioned, it starts whining about a .dll file being missing.

I don't have Half-Life 2 or the Orange Box, so it won't even try to run the SDK.
Bah, too many errors. I may as well call it off.

I can install it and run it, but I can't use any of the programs.
I can't get the files to go into the folder you mentioned either, probably because I don't have Half-Life 2.

Hey, l4dmods is back...

While I couldn't check this forum, I managed to fix most of the problems I mentioned earlier. I only changed one line in qc and that fixed the camera, performance and spawning problems in Gmod. The line was:
$sequence producer "producer" fps 30.00
Apparently I skipped that part when I was looking at the tutorial.

Only things left are the faceposing and the twisted hand, but I think I can fix those on my own. Huge thanks for your help, Shilo and Tsumetai, I never would have made it this far without you!

Do you not have the melee weapon problem? Or are you modding L4D1?

I'm modding L4D2, but I've had no problems with melee weapons. I have the original skeleton and original, slightly modified attachments, I only changed the coordinates a bit to get the pistol in the holster since I moved it to the belt.

Odd. Which character are you modding?

I'm modding Rochelle, but that shouldn't matter in this case. I never had problems with melee weapons. The first compile looked like a spiky jelly, but the axe was still where it was supposed to be.

Well, I have a problem when I try to run the decompiler. It says "Extra App ID set to 211, but no SteamAppId" when I go to choose the Model File.

EDIT.
I used the 0.5 version and works fine.
