HL Weapons in a Mod like CS
 
Howdy,
Do you guys think its possible to create a Metamod plugin which does the following: Adds weapons from Half-Life to a Half-Life Mod like Counter-Strike?
Eg. from the serverside: giveweapon egon Player
Would it be very interesting if it IS possible,
just the idea to throw someone a gluon gun in the hands is just amazing :D
I tried it with a plugin like AMXMod, but it didnt worked, so it might work with C++, offcourse with the right precaches etc.

'DutchTiger' :)

Edit: Not really bot related I see now, just move it to the forums you think it would fit Mods

This is rather a HL SDK related coding discussion indeed... :)

What you say is possible, although a bit complicated perhaps. But definitely possible, and it has already been done. But if you're not of those who get discouraged by difficulty, there is already a metamod plugin that adds a weapon to all mods, and I think it comes with source code. I believe it's called "hook mod" or "grapple mod" or something like that. It adds an Opposing Force-style grapple hook to players.

Yup I heard about DrunkenFools HookMod, it made our server famous ;)
To be honest I was more thinking about a real HL weapon, like Egon.
This is cool because its allready in everyone's file suitcase.
What you say is it could be done but I would need to develop alot of coding skills to accomplish it. Hmm well I just request an AMXMod Module for it in that case, there alot fanatic coders there who might like the idea. ATM I dont have enough time for C++, I just learned how to compile those stuff. Thanks for your reply :)

I think all things are possible except that you cannot select the weapon from your hud like with 'normal' weapons. So you have to make a new command to select this weapon.

Btw Pierre isn't this a metamod discussion?

Well I was thinking of binding it to the command "slot6", "slot7" etc. and then make a csay at the right bottom with the name of the weapon.
That makes it possible to use 6 etc. for it but it doesnt show as usual.

Hmmm... this is debatable... I think that in the end there will be a lot more HL SDK specific stuff involved with this sort of plugin than things that are specific to metamod...

Actually it is possible to make new weapons and put them in the hud.

AusIV of The Flipside of TFC posted a tutorial for putting new weapons in the hud on his forums.

[ Edit ]

It seems to have been removed, sorry about that.

Re: HL Weapons in a Mod like CS
 
Yeah I was thinking of AusIV's mod aswell, he had some gluon beamer added... very interested if anyone has some will and free time... :)
Never knew that was possible in the HUD though

BTW -- You mean this thread?
http://thefs.com/forum/index.php?act=ST&f=11&t=68
Huge pitty his Tutorial files are for TFC.

The is a mod called Counter-Life, that does this, but vice versa. U played half life with counter strike weapons.

Yest but afaik counterlife isn't a metamod plugin, but is made with the sdk.
