Sorry my matey, but most of the users in here are not mappers... some of them are still active, but they probably won't be online soon.
As for me, I've nothing else to say but let you know that, yeah, the mappers here are still active, but not as much as us. I think there's actually only one mapper left... but ah well. Hope you find help soon.

Well, without looking at your map, it sounds like you need to specify a model filename for your cycler entity. I think it will compile with a null or incorrect value, but it will not allow you to load your map as it won't be able to load the resource (in this case, a model for your cycler ent).

I tested it out in one of my maps with a specific of models/fred.mdl for the model arg and the map loaded right up with the fred model in the middle of the room. Just remember that the path to your model (MDL) file is relative to the VALVE directoy or mod directory. In the example I used, the actual path was C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\EEEMMMAAILLLL\half-life\brainbread\models to load the fred.mdl file but in the editor the value I gave it was only models/fred.mdl.

I hope that helps.
