You'll need some md2's of crates for starters- the ones in Q2 are all brush models.

the func_explobox. not exactly a crate, but at least a container and
a md2-model.

Is possible very easily, however will be a fail without physics

I guess that's not what you wanted to hear but making that weapon in HalfLife 2 or something like that should be quite easy.

I understand there may be a snag but what if grenades could be stood upon and didn't explode, couldn't that work? It's ok if the crates don't rotate or fall over from weight, it'd just be a hoot to toss explosive barrels around! Maybe give them a 10 second fuse so that you have to climb on them quickly before they detonate and you fall... if you're not already killed by the explosion.

It could be fun... Sort of like the 'jump' mod where your trying to get to the end of the map in the fastest time possible, or problem solve your way out of a room.

I made a mod with similar functionality

There are 3 classes and each have a way of reaching new locations. The wizard of air can summon clouds that he walks on. The wizard of death can summon zombies and use them as platforms or even double jump from their heads. The chi fighter can cast a mid-air jump spell that pushes him forward in the direction that he is facing.

It's not quite the same as spawning boxes that bounce around, but it definitely has the ability to spawn Bounded Box models to use as platforms.
