Don't see other players' equipment!

[ReBoot]

My issue: I only see other players' weapons, a shield from time to time. I don't see the packs, helmets and armor. I only see that stuff if the player puts it on while I am connected. If I just join and he just join a game, I don't see that stuff.

Latest beta package installed.

tried fixing that with disasterous consequences. try searching and reading past beta package changelogs

its one of them ancient bugs...the last fix for it worked, unfortunately it corrupted characters.

someone mentioned a possible fix for it in the form of an AMX plugin that came with stripper2 on thothies server

so thothie - search your logs for "stripper" XD ^_^

 

[ReBoot]

Ok, so I am not the only one with that problem.

 

[evilsquirrel]

no, everyone has it...

you can let others see your items by re-equiping them, but thats about it.


the plugin works by refreshing the models every time someone joins, it apparently works under sven, the specialists, and natural selection...shouldn't be too hard to adapt...unless it is D:

 

[ReBoot]

I am not good at coding (in fact, I can't at all). So could someone else adopt that?

 

[evilsquirrel]

hopefully thothie will find a use for it somewhere...

 

[Shurik3n]

If its an amx plugin I might be able to adapt it, if somebody finds me the source.

I was thinking I should learn how to write scripts for AMX, although PHP already makes my head hurt enough.

The MSC inventory system doesn't work anything like the inventory system in any of those other games, so I doubt anything that works for them would work for MSC. I don't think it's a simple matter of updating models, it's that the client doesn't tell the other clients what he's got equipped.

AMX2006 is pretty simple... So long as you don't deal with strings (strings are a pain) - and you don't mind the freaking SC compiler telling you how to format your code ([generates 873 warnings] FUCK YOU SC!) ... There's also the 'oddities' dealing with MSC, if you have a menu or anything. (Keys are all fux0red, tis what makes the vote menu such a pain.)

Still... It's certainly simpler than Pearl, or anything I can name aside from maybe Basic and Logo, and the MSC script system.

Is it safe to assume that the MSC Script system outmatches everything that seems complex?? I seem to recall your mentioning that MSC was rather... stuck together in a large mess by various coders who didn't bother with organization & clean code

Course, the extend of my coding in C++ or anything else is the printf command...
