Change Log

Spoiler

Known Issues

The skin doesn't apply very well while on the third person (e.g. thirdpersonshoulder). You may have to swap weapons to see the changes.

Notes

This plugin uses the player_use event to detect if a player pressed IN_USE (E) in a weapon.

Thank you!

I really don't know what I'm doing wrong but nothing happens when I press "E"

Or do I think I misunderstood?

You have to press "E" in a weapon with different skin than yours.

Easier to test in c1m2_streets map (Dead Center - Chapter 2) at Whitaker's Gun Shop.

Probably you need [L4D2] Weapons Skins RNG to have more different skins available on the map.

Basically, it works like that, using AK as example.

AK has 3 skins,

The second skin (skin 1) makes its color darker (green+black), if you go near to another AK with a different skin than yours (brown) (skin 0), and press "E", the skin must swap.

Yours should become brown and the AK you pressed "E" must be green+black.

If it still confusing or not working PM me.

what I was doing is pressing "E" to an already equipped weapon to see if it changed skin

what I have to do is press "E" near the weapon with different skin?
