Garry's Mod - console commands to set entity keyvalues aren't working

Garry's Mod - console commands to set entity keyvalues aren't working - From above of unrecognizable male disk jockey standing near DJ jog wheels near laptop while playing music in modern nightclub

In Half-Life 2, there is a gun for the Airboat. I wanted to play with this in Garry's Mod, so I tried enabling the gun through keyvalues, like you would in Hammer Editor. There is an EnableGun boolean keyvalue, so I tried using console commands to enable the gun. I spawned an Airboat through the spawnmenu (under vehicles), pointed my crosshair at it, and typed:

ent_setname "airboatandgun"
ent_keyvalue "airboatandgun" "EnableGun" "1"

This did not enable the gun. I thought maybe you couldn't access the gun like you could in HL2, so I tried this:

ent_keyvalue "model" "models/balloons/balloon_star.mdl"

This did not set the model. I tried enabling cheats, duplicating the entity, and reloading (although this removed all the entities.) Neither the airboat gun nor the new model appeared.

Am I doing something wrong? HL2 is properly mounted to Garry's Mod. Is the Airboat in Garry's Mod different than the one in Half-Life 2, or does the command not work at all?

Best Answer

I believe you download that from the steam workshop it is HL2 Vehicles with guns P.S the mounted gun is just for decoration unless you get the workshop item
