If your talking about the sandbox svn i have allok but i got these models from the internet so i just want to place them it seems to be easy on 2.5 but not on svn.

do you have a .cfg file for your md2? Do you have a skin for it?

You need both for it to be used by sandbox.

If you dont have a skin, I think you will have to use blender, or some other 3d skinning application. If you have the skin, but no .cfg file, write
one. Id try to tell you how, but this link does a much better job than I would

http://sauerbraten.org/docs/models.html

If you do have both a skin and a .cfg file, make sure that the skin has the name "skin" and the .md2 file has the same name as the folder it is in all have the same name, and the .cfg file is called md2.cfg

Stick the folder into the same place as the other objects in sandbox (packages/models I think...)

Now all you do is enter sandbox, type /mmodel yourfoldernamehere

and it *SHOULD* appear in the usual list of mapmodels.

Hope I helped,
Owen.

hmm thats odd... - you tried putting it into mystuff/packages instead - I dont know why that would work but try it? lol

I have only tried a model import once using the above techniques and It worked...

Could you possibly tell me:

1. Where exactly you put the folder, and what you called it
2. The contents of the .cfg file
3. the names of all the files in the folder

please?
