Why do people use skin as a word to replace 'model'? It just pisses me off.

@Sm63: What do you think someone with no lua knowledge can do with that function.. nothing.

hook.Add("PlayerSpawn", "GiveAdminSkin", function(ply)
if ply:IsAdmin() then
ply:SetModel("models/path/to/your/admin/model.mdl")
end
end)

Add this to a server-side lua file.

[QUOTE=freakyy;44233433]@Sm63: Why do you link to the old wiki? What about the current?

From my knowledge there were no changes from Garry's Mod 12 to Garry's Mod 13 about IsAdmin/IsSuperAdmin.
The first thing I did when I started coding was an admin mod :v:
And btw, you don't have to include the IsSuperAdmin because if you read the wiki
[quote]Player.IsAdmin will return true is the player is an admin OR a superadmin. Therefore you don't need 2 separate checks[/quote] would of been not so oblivious to you.

How to forbid to use a skin to users?

[c👌de_g🎷]

The user group or certain users? If it's the latter, use ply:SteamID() for specific players. If you mean the user group, if not ply:IsAdmin() or not ply:IsSuperAdmin().

Like freaky said,

hook.Add("PlayerSpawn", "GiveAdminSkin", function(ply)
if ply:IsAdmin() then
ply:SetModel("models/path/to/your/admin/model.mdl")
end
end

Should work I'd assume.

It's actually:

hook.Add("PlayerSpawn", "GiveAdminSkin", function(ply)
    if ply:IsAdmin() then
        ply:SetModel("models/path/to/your/admin/model.mdl")
    end
end)

You probabbly forgot copying the ) at the end :P

I just took it out because I don't think it has a use...

[freakyy]

It [B]has[/B] to be there, otherwise it will cause a syntax error. Look closer :D
hook.Add is a function: hook.Add(hookname, uniquename, function() end) - the last ) is required here.
