Remove Avatar - weapon replacing

BBmac · Post by **BBmac** » Tue Apr 28, 2009 11:11 pm

I have created alot of scripts that allow me to specifically remove certain events of the player from the game. I have not modded in years but have always been looking for a command to remove the avatar from my head while I turn myself invisible. Its annoying seeing the avatar while we are shooting a video. Would it be something like "self removeavatar"?

Also,
me not modding for a while has left me rusty in weapon replacing scripting. For instance when players spawn I want all the M1's changed to enfields and panzers to bazookas.

The avatar cannot be removed, it's hardcoded. But since it's clientside, why not let the cameraman, override the avatar texture with a total transparent texture or a microscopic small texture.

"Microscopic small texture", as you called it, will be stretched to the size of the avatar anyway. Only way to get rid of it is to use a TGA with a blank alpha channel.
