MD2 model support for DelphiDoom is supported via MODELDEF lump, or MODEFDEF.txt files inside external pk3 or pak files.

// Model definition, we use the modeldef keyword
// 'framemerge' keyword: Merge frames from another model for smooth movement. Both models must have the exact same number of triangles
// modeldef keyword is required only when we must define offset, scale and framemerge keywords.
// if modedef keyword is missing then the default values for offset is 0.0, scale is 1.0
modeldef "spider_base.md2" 
{
  offset 0.0
  scale 1.0
  framemerge "spider_attack.md2"
}

// State definition
// Standard state names are defined inside STATEDEF lump inside doom32.swd (DelphiDoom system wad)
// In custom actors are defined as S_xxx_999, where XXX is the new mobj name and 999 is the state number of the mobj starting from 0
// 'model' keyword points to the md2 filename, if not present a previous modeldef definition the default values will be used (offset = 0.0, scale = 1.0)
// 'texture' keyword points to the external texture filename for this frame
// 'frame' keyword point to the model frame anmation for the state
// 'transparency' keyword (range [0.0 - 1.0]) is the texture transparency for the current state, default is 1.0 (not transparent).
state S_SPID_STND
{
  model "spider_base.md2"
  texture "spider_base.png"
  frame 0
