I don't really know if this thread should go here but as it's something related to scripting too...

Hello, I'm having a bit of trouble as I'm looking at CoD4 sources and some mods sources but none of them (I don't find) shows a way in how to set a skin for a weapon.

I don't want to create a different "weapon" for each skin as I don't want to reach the weapons asset limit (128), I've already in use ~40 weapon files.

I know that I need to create viewmodels, worldmodels, images, materials and material_proterties for each skin, I've been looking at some default CoD4 weapon files and they have this:

gunModel\viewmodel_remington700_mp\gunModel2\viewmodel_remington700_mp_brock\gunModel3\viewmodel_remington700_mp_bshdwl\gunModel4\viewmodel_remington700_mp_bwmrpt\gunModel5\viewmodel_remington700_mp_cmdtgr\gunModel6\viewmodel_remington700_mp_stagger\gunModel7\\gunModel8\\gunModel9\\gunModel10\\gunModel11\\gunModel12\\gunModel13\\gunModel14\\gunModel15\\gunModel16\

So in theory I would be able to set-up 16 viewmodels for the R700 weapon, the thing is how do I select each of them?



Any help is appreciated, thanks 

You use:

player giveweapon("weaponname", 1);//weaponname is the name of weapon file and 1 would be the increment of the model

Thanks for the fast response, I think I can make it but I'm still not sure

Another question, this is for CoD4, not for WaW.

Will it set a worldmodel automatically?
