Holster Sidearm Action

[Flax 397]

Sidearm Holster Action (SP/ Client Side MP) V0.6

Description:

This addon allows you to holster your sidearm so it is removed from your gear. Its purpose started as a script to allow players in my clan to be in base with no main weapon and a sidearm but use the normal walking animation. Other uses include Civ vs Player pvp matches where the BLUFOR have to find the terrorists in a town populated with AI civs before the player civs kill the BLUFOR.

Features:

- Holster and Unholster sidearm.

- SP and MP compatibility.

- Accessible from action menu.

- Remembers weapon attachments.

- Hide sidearm from other players in PVP situations.

Plans (no promises):

- Expand to hide/holster main weapon.

- Custom animations.

- Include pistol model on leg holster.

- Change from Action Menu to custom key.

- Add Server Keys.

Known Issues:

- Allows you to have second pistol when main is holstered.

- Other scripty things.

This is very nice :) I remember requesting this because its something the vanilla game should have.

Thanks for the mod!

hmm it might be better if you could use a user-action key for the action instead

the purple/blue scroll wheel action shows up in my screen too often :p

you can play around with the addaction properties to avoid that. if i remember correctly there's one called "hide on use" or something like that.

Yea the original release was more of a proof of concept, a key press is on top priority and will be in either today or tomorrow. Thanks for the feedback though

This will be very useful for me, I've always wanted to put away the weapons for various reasons. Is there a way to change weapons while it is hidden? Like if it was hidden and I selected a different weapon from a crate would the new weapon be hidden and the old weapon discarded?

hi to all I debuted in mission design, but could not you tell me not to what should be done to implement the script in a mission? which is to be created, added, modified?

thank you to everyone for your understanding.

[Flax 397]

@Vip3r, if i understand what you mean: The addon isn't done per mission but is run as an addon on the client of the game (ie yourself).

@Sakura_Chan, yes this wouldn't be too hard to implement. I will look into it once I startup the project again (see below).

I know the DL is broken, I had some problems with my old install of windows. I lost a load of stuff in the process of fixing/updating to 8.1 but should be good to go again soon.
