No, weapons given are just invisible to others. They might sometimes appear, due to a reason I forget, but in general, they'll be invisible.

Well the valve weapons do show up for others.

Allow me to inform everyone on how weapon visibility works nowadays.

Any of the Stock weapons (index ID's 0 to 30) appear for everyone. The "Valve" weapons utilize the index ID's from 0 - 30, so that's why they appear.

Any weapon with an index ID above 30 won't appear. Due to the way Valve broke serverside player attachments (basically custom weapon models, custom intel models and speaking of custom intel models, why did no-one ever try to do custom intel models via a plugin?) sometimes the weapon will appear, but not to everyone. It's completely random, and a glitch.

The "upgradeable" Stock weapons (usually index ID's within the 200 range) do not appear because they are not legit Stock weapons. The "upgradeable" Stock weapons are what the game uses when you use a Name Tag or Description Tag on a Stock weapon, or if you have a Strange quality Stock weapon.

So, in closing, if you make a custom weapon, and give it an index ID from 0 to 30, no matter what attributes you throw on it, it'll appear to everyone. You could do a stock Bottle with an array of overpowered attributes, like pushing players away on hit, and it'll appear for everyone.

Giving item 851 (AWPer Hand) works for me.

Install the TF2ItemsInfo plugin.

Hi there, whenever I run the server I have to reload the plugin manually.
I tried compiling it with the compiler, and the same problem exist.

Also, I tried to give myself the Festive Ambassador - Festive Ubersaw - Festive Holy Mackerel but it says:
[TF2Items] Invalid Weapon Index
I already have "TF2Item" and "TF2ItemInfo" installed, why the problem occurs ?
Is it because they're 2012 Festive's ? I've tried 2011's and they're working good.
It might be also because they're 999 and up in the index, just saying.

[FlaminSarge]

You don't have the tf2items.randomizer.txt file. There's info about it posted in the first post of this thread.

As for the festives... not sure. TF2ItemsInfo may need an update, but I think it's working fine here, so you may not have them installed properly.

[D4rkl0rd]

The plugin works perfectly now, but the index problem is still.
What worries me that in TF2ItemsInfo's zip, the "tf2itemsinfo.inc" is not in include folder. Instead, it's in includes folder. I took 2 copies of the file and put one in each folder and the problem is still the same.

[FlaminSarge]

The .sp and .inc file don't matter for the server.

Also I don't know what indices the festives are.
