Hi! I got some troubles trying to get the ID or String Name of a melee weapon in the player, to block the use of katana by a flaged player, but it always return not valid entity or something...

Tryed to use SDK:

OnClientPutOnServer

SDKHook(client, SDKHook_WeaponCanUse, OnCanUse); 
(and OnCanSwitchTo and OnWeaponEquip)

decl String:sWeapon[32];
GetEdictClassname(weapon, sWeapon, sizeof(sWeapon));

It succefully identify and block the "bullets" weapons, but looks like cant handle with the melee weapons, seaching by classname.

I tryed search by the model name using the same sdk process and by:

new slot = 1;
new meleeweapon = GetPlayerWeaponSlot(client, slot);

new String:modelname[128];
GetEntPropString(meleeweapon , Prop_Data, "m_ModelName", modelname, 128);

and by:

GetEntPropString(weapon , Prop_Data, "m_ModelName", modelname, 128);

but i think i dont made it right to remove the weapon from the player:

if(StrEqual(modelname, "v_katana.mdl")) (i also tryed w_katana.mdl)
    { remove

Can someone help a little to "detect" the melee weapon on the player?

Thank you!

Just to enjoy the the open thread, i got two questions:

1° Its possible to change the time betwen melee swings? By the "meleeweapon" scripts or using the sourcemod?

2° If i hook the "rescue_door_open" event, it will fire on realism?

Are you sure you got the right slot number? Also, why not just use GetEdictClassName on the weapon entity - it should return a unique name.

Post #2:

1: It's not, i tried. Melee weapons bug out VIOLENTLY if you try to set a "next attack time".

2: Why not try it out

I don't have time atm to pull out the exact code, but SuperLogs: L4D has an example of how to get the melee weapon name.

Followup to this ^

PHP Code:

        decl String:szWeapon[64];
        GetEventString(event, "weapon", szWeapon, sizeof(szWeapon));
        if (strncmp(szWeapon, "melee", 5) == 0)
        {
            new iWeapon = GetEntDataEnt2(attacker, g_iActiveWeaponOffset);
            if (IsValidEdict(iWeapon))
            {
                GetEdictClassname(iWeapon, szWeapon, sizeof(szWeapon));
                if (strncmp(szWeapon[7], "melee", 5) == 0)
                {
                    GetEntPropString(iWeapon, Prop_Data, "m_strMapSetScriptName", szWeapon, sizeof(szWeapon));
                    SetEventString(event, "weapon", szWeapon);
                }
            }
        } 


This is what SuperLogs:L4D uses to get the melee weapon name (it uses it to overwrite "melee" on the death log)

Awesome, thanks! I was just fooling around with the model Index, but that differs from map to map
