Hello.
I just tried to change the model of a player. Heres some code:

PHP Code:

#define MYMODEL "models/characters/counterterrorist.mdl"
public OnMapStart()
{
    PrecacheModel(MYMODEL, true);
}

// Player_spawn hook
public Action:EventPlayerSpawn(Handle:event,const String:name[],bool:dontBroadcast)
{
    new client = GetClientOfUserId(GetEventInt(event, "userid"));

    if(IsModelPrecached(MYMODEL)) SetEntityModel(client, MYMODEL);
} 


Ive also tried

PHP Code:

new modelindex = PrecacheModel(MYMODEL, true);
...
new offset = FindSendPropOffs("CBaseEntity", "m_nModelIndex");
SetEntData(client, offset, modelindex, 4, true); 


Both solutions work, but the models animations do not work, they are running arround as if they are crucified . Probably iam missing something, can somebody help me out?

you need to make sure the model you're using is rigged in the same way as the player's original model otherwise the animations wont match and you'll get some default animation... aka the Vitruvian pose.

chances are you're using a ragdoll model instead of an actual player one?

iam using exactly that one mentioned above. Its implemented in srcds-cstrike-server. What models can i use? Is it possible to use any models from hl2 (in my case: for cstrike mod)?

[paegus]

player-compatible models are usually in models/player/ though aren't they?

e: and you can only use models that are rigged in the same way (same animations, in the same order). models compiled for hl2dm, for example, aren't arranged in the same way. you might not end up with the Vitruvian pose but it still wont work properly.

Ah, ok. Models from models/player/ work perfect.
Would it be possible to use HL2 models in cstrike if i had the related animations for cstrike?

[paegus]

if you re-rig the models to use CSS skeleton, hitboxes, animations and whatnot then yes you can use the HL2 models... but they'll need to be downloaded by the players first.
