There are Xmodels in COD4 for the dish, check the Model Gallery HERE - In the Middle East section i think.

Most prefabs can be found in [Root]/map_source/prefabs/misc_models

Here is a satellite prefab from that folder: com_satellite_dish_big.map

Also you can make a copy, re-name and edit if you want to change clipping, for example. Good luck.

yea im using that,but there is not bounce to it, when you say clipping ,do i just make a clip over the dish, will that make it work,? coz if it is just the matter of putting the clip texture over it then do clipping should work as a bounce on most things wont it?

thanks i found 2 sat dishesh but neither bounce, maybe i nee to clip them some how?

Yes, well since there is already clip texture there you can try editing the shape of it to get a better bounce.

Make a copy of the prefab first, then re-name it. Then once in Radiant open your prefab and edit clip brush. Use ALT+PGDN to begin editing prefab and when you're done use ALT+PGUP to save your changes.

Hi i did the ALT_PGDN but it didnt show no clipping, so i made a texture clip up myself, as shown here,


and edited to make an angle, then i moved it over to the Sat Dish, i now have it like pic 2


I now just compiling the map which will take about 30-mins, then i can try it, it a big map now lol with 5 levels, the 5 being the biggest one and the last one..lol

One problem was i was'nt sure what clip tool to use, as there a few to pick fro, so im trying no sight clip, hope that works.???


which would you say to use.??

Clip-no-sight did work, not a bad bounce, but im going to try no-clip-metal see how that goes, will let ya know later, or tomorrow.

Weird, looks like there is clipping. The red outline surrounding the satellite should be where the clip is normally. You can use any clip that blocks the player. Two textures that won't are clip_metal (which is different than clip_no_sight_metal) and clip_weap.

Here you can find some descriptions:
