Hello there,

once again I am wondering how to do stuff..

This time I tried to replace pills with a roll of toilet paper. (don't ask why..)

For now I managed to replace the pills on spawn and throughout the map with a toiletroll.

Then I wondered how to replace the model on the survivor when they equipped it.

I hooked entiy creation and then checked for model and simply tried to replace (like I did with the spawn pills.)

See attached file, when I try to replace the model this time (that I think it is.. w_eq_painpills.mdl not sure about that though) the game crashes.

Is it even possible to just replace the model? Or do I have to make fancy stuff?

You can try something like this.
I have no access to any tools when writing this but it give you the idea how to do it.

PHP Code:

char g_sPainPills[] = "models/props_interiors/toiletpaperroll.mdl";

public void OnMapStart() {
    PrecacheModel( g_sPainPills );
}

public void OnClientPutInServer( int client ) {
    SDKUnhook( client, SDKHook_WeaponSwitch, OnWeaponSwitch );
    SDKHook( client, SDKHook_WeaponSwitch, OnWeaponSwitch );
}

public Action OnWeaponSwitch( int client, int weapon ) {
    int pills = GetEntPropEnt( client, Prop_Send, "m_hActiveWeapon" );
    if( pills == weapon && IsValidEntity( pills )) {
        char entClass[64];
        GetEntityClassname( pills, entClass, sizeof( entClass ));
        if( StrEqual( entClass, "weapon_pain_pills", false ) || StrEqual( entClass, "weapon_first_aid_kit", false )) {
            SetEntityModel( pills, g_sPainPills );
        }
    }
}

Hi and thx.

But I fear this task is not as easy as I first thought.

I succesfully hook that with sdkhook and it seems to alter the model bc the view of pills changed to a "stuck" like animation.

I changed the uzi to pistols model as test but then the uzi animation went bezerk,it was still uzi but out of control. really.

Attached version with pills to toiletroll over the map and

models/v_models/v_painpills.mdl
to
models/props_interiors/toiletpaperroll.mdl

sdhook with not working side effects.

Maybe that is not possible at all.

I wonder if it is at least possible to alter the pills that are carried on the belt of the survivors or if this will result in a similar result?!

I do not have deep knowledge in this but if you look hard enough there is already a plugin that do swap the weapon model. probably best to look at they example.

Also you precache the model on OnMapStart() not plugin start.

If you reloading plugin during debug in midgame you just check if late load then call the OnMapStart() function again.
