Can't see weapons on enemy models

[piti]

I don't know if this thread fits here... anyway: I can't see those f****ng weapon models on enemy players.

It should be like on this screen (player @ top left)

But it looks like this for me:

What's wrong there? I've tried to replace some model and skin files for the weapons but I couldn't fix it.

Does anyone know what to change to fix this? Help would be appreciated!

petit!

it has nothing to do with models, its just a command.. i had it too years ago and found it pretty annoying, after searching for months i found out that there was a command for.

Code: Select all

set cl_vwep "1"

That should be the correct one.

you finally found ur way here!

juano! den!

First of all thx for your fast reply - but it still doesn't work. You're right: it IS the correct command/setting (see http://www.onlinegamecommands.com/quake ... mmands.htm) but it won't work for me. FECK! I've even tried it with vid_restart, reconnect etc. The command is already in my autoexec.cfg as well.

(look @ cl_vwep value in console and look at the gay weapon models.. )

Sorry, dunno what it can be else.. maybe you miss the weapon models for the guns, in "3rd person view".

[imeiz]

you're missing the models and maybe the skins for the weapons, so you see baseq2's weapons.

Yes, I think this is the problem.. cause I see single pistols but no other weapons in enemy players hands.

Soo.. this brings us to the next question: where are those "3rd person view"-player models? I suppose they are in some .pak file in the /action directory. But where?

no, they're not there, because you don't see them :D marlporo.pp.fi/aq2 should has some weapon models, see if you can find something useable.

they should be in some pak in action, or straight in the folder models.

LOL. Of course they are not "there" (in my aq2 folder) . Thx for the link, I'll try to download some of the models, maybe it works.

edit: MEEP MEEP! I know the problems solution!

The "3rd person view" weapon-models are in the directory of every single player-model. You will find files like w_m4.md2 or w_mp5.md2 in there. And I'm missing all .md2 files (except the one for MK23 pistol) for the "male" model (I can see the weapons in enemy players hands when they use the "terror" model for example).

The only problem is: even the player model package on http://marlporo.pp.fi/aq2/models_players.html does NOT contain the .md2 files for the "male" model. If I just copy the w_model files from "terror" to "male" it looks like shit, cause the player's holding the weapon in the wrong hand.

Would somebody be so nice and send me his w_*.md2 files for the "male" model?!

edit2:w00! Downloaded the Axion AQ2 standalone client, extracted the .md2 files from the "player/male" directory... et voíla: everything's fine now. Finally!
