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

Or do I think I misunderstood?

[Marttt]

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.

[user2000]

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?

[user2000]

making a video would be better to make my brain understand

[user2000]

apparently works fine

thanks
