[HELP] Players will always use server models

mastera40 · **Author**

Hello guys,
Yet another topic from me.

How can I make sure that when a player connects to my server he will download all the models and replace the ones with the same name.
For example when someone joins my server his Hunter models will be replaced by mine (since mine are different). What happens is the game checks if the user has those files and continues without checking if they are different.
So how can I make sure that players are using my server models ?
Thanks !

You have to change the name of the model you edited.
If you have a model on your server (edited one) and a player has the same model (same name), his client will pretend that the model it's already downloaded and pass it.

You can set a tag on the end of the models example : hunter_zombie_rz.mdl
Or you can create your own file and then inside place models.

I want to put the models in a folder with my server name. How can I do that ? I just change the paths ?
How can I change all zombie models like this one to be in a folder called "VGServer":

PHP Code:


			
new const zclass_model[] = "zombie_brain_eater"
new const zclass_clawmodel[] = "v_knife_zombie_brain_eater.mdl"

ZP5.0 uses models API that mercylezz made so you would need to edit the zp50_class_zombie.sma to do that and much better way would be to add a tag in the end, you don't really need to complicate things in your life. (:

Well it would be better to create a new folder. If players stopped playing on my server I could create a folder with my ip and the models in it... that way they will have the ip and can easily find my server again.

Can you guys tell me how I can move all the models in one folder ? Both player and knife models.

P.S. I don't like putting tags...

I like your idea.

I can use it for the my new ZP server.
