Counter-Strike: Source/Unused Models

This is a sub-page of Counter-Strike: Source.

Counter-Terrorist

A copy of the SEAL Team 6 playermodel, with only one animation and his UV mapping seeming to be for the pre-May 2005 design's texture, hence the current one having them improper on his radio, the face on his left ankle, and the spot on his helmet. The old model also has special goggles like the past designs.

With correct textures

Valve's Gift Grab 2011

This was only used in 2011. It went unused after Christmas time. Day of Defeat: Source also used a similar model for the same event as well.

A coffee mug that says "What's Sleep?" This particular model is unused but another model uses the same material as a skin in the map.

computer.mdl

A model that contains the keyboard, mouse and monitor altogether with wires. Suggesting that this was made before making each object individual and breakable.

Another model that contains the computer tower with wires, too. Again this may have been cut due to being a different model and breakable.

Miscellaneous

river.vmf (October 10, 2005), river2.vmf (November 8, 2005) and river3.vmf (November 15, 2005) can be found in the models folder of props/cs_militia. Opening them with Valve's Hammer editor shows these. These .vmfs indicate that the river models were initially part of the level geometry before being converted into models by Valve or Turtle Rock Studios.

rocks.3ds may be a developer leftover. This .3ds file seems to be the earliest version of rocks01.mdl, which can be found in the same directory.
