Hello there! Is there any way to make the material cover an entity? I want to spawn an entity and cover another materials on it。Can someone help me with this it?

what do you mean by material = vmt files ..sprites? o.o

I mean a vmt files。。。。。

no way to do this in source engine without recompiling the model with new materials (unless you're in gmod, which isn't supported by sourcemod)

*edit* you might be able to use temp entity ("Entity Decal")'s to place decals on entitys, however this might not be too useful if it can't achieve the effect you are looking for

PHP Code:

        int m_iViewModel = CreateEntityByName("prop_dynamic_override");
    DispatchKeyValue(m_iViewModel, "targetname","1");
    DispatchKeyValue(m_iViewModel, "spawnflags", "64");
    DispatchKeyValue(m_iViewModel, "model", "models/example.mdl");
    DispatchKeyValue(m_iViewModel, "rendermode", "0");
    DispatchKeyValue(m_iViewModel, "renderfx", "0");
    DispatchKeyValue(m_iViewModel, "rendercolor", "255 255 255");
    DispatchKeyValue(m_iViewModel, "renderamt", "255");
    DispatchKeyValue(m_iViewModel, "solid", "0");
    DispatchSpawn(m_iViewModel);
        float m_fOrigin[3], m_fAngles[3], m_fRadians[2], m_fPosition[3];

    GetClientAbsOrigin(client, m_fOrigin);
    GetClientAbsAngles(client, m_fAngles);
    TeleportEntity(m_iViewModel, m_fPosition, m_fAngles, NULL_VECTOR);

    TE_Start("Entity Decal");
    TE_WriteVector("m_vecOrigin",m_fPosition); // i really dont know
    TE_WriteNum("m_nEntity",0);
    TE_WriteNum("m_nIndex",PrecacheDecal("decal/example.vmt", true));
    TE_SendToAll(); 


how can i cover the Entity Decal to m_iViewModel？
