In L4D1 (not sure about L4d2) ragdoll entity is valid for a very small amount of time: "player_death" with EventHookMode_Pre and no more valid on Post-event. A trick is to kill it right there and create your own by reproducing original preperties, something like this: PHP Code: #pragma semicolon 1 #pragma newdecls required #include <sourcemod> #include <sdktools> #tryinclude <LMCCore> public void OnPluginStart() {     HookEvent("player_death", player_death, EventHookMode_Pre); } public Action player_death(Event event, const char [] name, bool dontBroadcast) {     static char Tank_Model[PLATFORM_MAX_PATH];     int client = GetClientOfUserId(event.GetInt("userid"));              //required checks     //if (client && IsClientInGame(client) && IsInfected(client, ZOMBIECLASS_TANK))     {         // note: tank_killed event is too late here to retrieve ragdoll entity!         int ragdoll = GetEntPropEnt(client, Prop_Send, "m_hRagdoll"); // CCSRagdoll         if (ragdoll && IsValidEntity(ragdoll)) {             AcceptEntityInput(ragdoll, "Kill");         }                  int r,g,b,a;         float vOrigin[3];         char sColor[16];         GetClientAbsOrigin(client, vOrigin);         GetEntityRenderColor(client, r,g,b,a);         Format(sColor, sizeof(sColor), "%i %i %i", r, g, b);                  /*         int iOverlayModel = -1;                  #if defined _LMCCore_included             if( bLMC_Available )                 iOverlayModel = LMC_GetClientOverlayModel(client);             #endif         */                  //GetEntPropString(iOverlayModel < 1 ? client : iOverlayModel, Prop_Data, "m_ModelName", Tank_Model, sizeof(Tank_Model));         GetEntPropString(client, Prop_Data, "m_ModelName", Tank_Model, sizeof(Tank_Model));                  CreateTankRagdoll(vOrigin, Tank_Model, sColor);     } } void CreateTankRagdoll(float pos[3], char[] sModel, char[] sColor) {     static int body;     body = CreateEntityByName("prop_ragdoll");     if (body != -1) {         DispatchKeyValue(body, "model", sModel);         DispatchKeyValue(body, "RenderColor", sColor);         DispatchKeyValue(body, "spawnflags", "4");         DispatchSpawn(body);         TeleportEntity(body, pos, NULL_VECTOR, NULL_VECTOR);         SetEntityKillTimer(body, 60.0);     } } stock void SetEntityKillTimer(int ent, float time) {     char sRemove[64];     Format(sRemove, sizeof(sRemove), "OnUser1 !self:Kill::%f:1", time);     SetVariantString(sRemove);     AcceptEntityInput(ent, "AddOutput");     AcceptEntityInput(ent, "FireUser1"); }  Apply original velocity and direction is the only required to add to finish what you want. This sample was for my tank plugin.

Basically, what I'm trying to do is make dead survivors create a client ragdoll like in the Restore Ragdolls plugin, while keeping the original death model albeit making it invisible.

Reasons:
* I wanted to try out something (almost) on my own.
* Death models created with CreateEntityByName aren't affected by gravity.
Sorry if what I wanted wasn't all that clear with you.

The problem was that the client ragdolls didn't automatically assume the velocity + bone positions of their owner. So far only velocity from owner itself was finished.

And yes, in L4D2 cs_ragdoll behaves similarly like in L4D1.
