CS weapon models

[Moön]

I noticed whilst at i10 some people have some newer CS weapon models, they look way better than what I use so I managed to pwn them from soneone

Only problem now as a bit a newb when it comes to changing stuff with in hl I dont know where to put the files

I have a pak viewer if needed so thats np .

Also they dont get classed as a cheat in any known comunity's do they ? they come from the CS nation site I think .

usually they come in Zip Format, so all you have to do is:

For Weapons:

Install them into the
C:\Sierra\Counter-Strike\cstrike\models Directory

For Player Skins:

Install them into the
C:\Sierra\Counter-Strike\cstrike\models\player Directory, BUT, when installing say a GSG Model, make sure you put it in the GSG Directory or it wont work.

And nah, they dont get classed as cheats

Just put em in the same place as the weapons folder:

C:\Sierra\Counter-Strike\cstrike\models

Dont change player models.

And only ever change the v_ weapon models.

Dont change sounds either.

 

[old.D0LLySh33p]

But you can change sex here...

[S-Gray]

Dont change player models.

I always change em after a clean install.. them ones are shit

 

[old.D0LLySh33p]

I have only one thing I've changed.

Changed the models to the CPL approved simple ones.

Gives me some extra framerate and I "know" where I'm hitting due to the shown hitboxes, etc.

Yeh I found out about the sounds and had to download the whole lot again cos half my guns sounded like kettle drums .

What does v, p and w stand for in models ?
I'm guesing its the ones you see on the floor, ones you hold and ones you see nme holding but in which order and why only use v ?

And I have left player models as they are as I think it messes with the game to much when you start replacing SAS soldiers with gas mask wearing lobsters n stuff like that. Still a lobster is probably closer to the actuall hit boxes

Finally any one got a nice M4 model as the one I have has this really annoying red scope on the top ?

If the new skins come in ZIP format, there may be a readme or text file in there.

Check it out - it usually has instructions.

You may also need to update the HUD.TXT file with new skins. You may also need to update the weapon .txt file if you have new crosshairs

Always take a backup of the models/sounds folders before adding new ones.

Found out the hard way.. while installin a X3 Shotgun Skin, it fucked up a file and CS wouldnt run.. took me ages to find the problem :/

The v model is the one that appears in your hands. The w model is the one that you see everybody else holding. High detail w models can lower your fps considerably. The p model is....erm........well its something anyway.

 

[S-Gray]

its probably when the weapon is dropped or somethin

 

[Moön]

Yeh maybe, any way fps are np and cheers for the help .

I'm now after a l33t mac10 cos the one I had was gay and held on its side, anyone know a good 1 ?

 

[Tom]

The one I use to kill Dolly is in good nick, you can have it for a fiver.

 

[Moön]

You got a dagger by any chance to ?

 

[S-Gray]

nah his knife is a Cod or somethin

 

[Tom]

No I changed it to a piece of celery (with blue stilton in it), cos the fish went off.

Changing player models to anything other than defaults regardless of FPS problems is cheating IMO.

The high fps models are piss easy to spot in some situations dolly, I used them for a while and noticed that they were easier to spot in some situations. They are also slightly bigger.
IMO just use default ones, I dont have a good PC, its nearly 3 years old, but I will use the default models.

As for weapon models, V = hands, W = Opponents hands and P = floor. Or reverse W & P, either way, dont use them at all because its cheat0ring.

Dont change sounds as that could also be classed as cheating, due to giving certain guns more vocal sounds than others, easier to hear from further off... eg. giving a silenced colt the sound of a normal colt is clear cut cheating

Crosshairs are a nono, do not change xhairs at all, that is also cheating. The only part of xhairs that is allowed is the "adjust_crosshair" command in console

Also I just reread dollys post, deffo get rid of them dolly, they are clear cut cheating models. I dont care if CPL approves them, they are bigger than default and that = cheat.

 

[Moön]

But those new guns just looks sooooo nice, surely a few extra polygons on an almost identical weapon cant aid someone in the way a cheat does .

My awm does have a different scope crosshair though which I do plan to replace with the original once I can get hold of the file .

 

[S-Gray]

i use different player models, wouldnt have thought it as cheating, but then you explained the size and what-have-you or the models which is fair does.

As for weapon models, V = hands, W = Opponents hands and P = floor. Or reverse W & P, either way, dont use them at all because its cheat0ring.

Whoo hoo! i was right about the floor thingy-me-jig

==

im after a new crosshair lol, the green one we get is shit when you have NVG on :/

 

[Will]

v_model = view model - in your hands
w_model = world model - on the floor
p_model = player model - in opponent's hands

servers enforce p_model consistency, so a larger p_model will get you kicked from the server automatically. Changing w_models is a little pointless imo, just gets you confused.

As for changing sounds, the distance they carry has nothing to do with the sound sample, so it ain't cheating, though some league rules (clanbase etc) insist on defaults. Otherwise, you can change them if you want.

And I'll get you a crosshair changer when I get home.

 

[Moön]

I had a file with my awm named scope.??? somemthing along those lines and the existing file with the same name was in sprites, is this a crosshair by any chance ?
