problem with buttons

[Venom]

Hi,

In my map i've put a light switch with 2 buttons on a wall. In Hammer everything looks fine, but when i run my map, the 2 buttons are gone. I've attached 2 screenshots. Does anyone know what can cause this problem and how i fix it?

Try making them prop dynamic instead of prop physics.

ok, thanks!

one little question though: i've also found a tutorial in which they say there's a "func_button", but i can't use it because from the moment i deselect the entity it, it's gone. The same with "func_door". Is this because Hammer for SiN Episodes is currently only optimized for Arena Mode or something?

I've used func_door and func_button a lot so I know they work.
How are you using them? Make a brush, right click on it and choose tie to entity, choose func_door or func_button and hit apply.
