What is wrong with this code as it kicks me off my server with an error message:

No model 26996!
Host_Error: UserMsg: Not Present on Client 22

///........
new spr[] = "sprites/critical.spr";
 
 
///........
public show_sprite(id,idattacker)
{
        if(!is_user_connected(idattacker) || !is_user_alive(idattacker)) return PLUGIN_HANDLED
        
        message_begin(MSG_ONE_UNRELIABLE,SVC_TEMPENTITY,{0,0,0},idattacker)
        write_byte(124) 
        write_byte(id) 
        write_coord(65)
        write_string(spr[idattacker])
        write_short(20) 
        message_end()  
        return PLUGIN_CONTINUE
}
 
///..........
 
public plugin_precache()
{
        precache_model(spr)
}

P.S. The sprite is being precached and downloads just fine.

new g_iSprite;
...
g_iSprite = precache_model("sprites/critical.spr");
...
 
message_begin(MSG_ALL, SVC_TEMPENTITY); //this show sprite to all.
write_byte(TE_PLAYERATTACHMENT); //hax?
write_byte(id); //index of player
write_coord(65); //z offset
write_short(g_iSprite); //this is a pointer for model
write_short(2 * 10); //2 sec. in 0.10's
message_end();

Thank you. It works now.

Hate to double-post but hey.....
How would I show that sprite just to a certain group of players (not one) who are let's say "new bool:able_to_see" true?

[Alka]

I don't think is possible...

This is unrelated to your problem, but there are no circumstances where anyone would ever need to check if is_user_connected() and is_user_alive() because is_user_alive() checks if the the player is connected before checking if they're alive. ;)
