weapon attachments

[Boss429]

I finally figured out how to get DPM models working in darkplaces but setattachments isn't working right.

Here's the code:

Code: Select all

void(entity person) checkvisibleweapon =
{

      setmodel(person.md3weapon, "models/weapons/shotgun.md3");

};

void(entity person) setweaponmodel =
{
   //don't add new weapon while respawning in multiplayer
   if (person.md3weaponspawned == FALSE)
   {
      person.md3weapon = spawn();
      person.md3weaponspawned = TRUE;
   }
   setattachment(person.md3weapon, person, "bone20");

   person.md3weapon.exteriormodeltoclient = person;
   checkvisibleweapon(person);
};

(yes, I stole it from q1md3)

Now instead of attaching the shotgun to bone20 which is the right hand bone, it just hangs out in between the character's legs.

if its between the legs, chances are its using bone #0 instead of bone "bone20". Check that your bone name is correct, and the correct case, and has no whitespace. Etc.

yeah i've tried using different bones and it always appears at bone0

try setting person.md3weapon.tag_index directly instead.
