How do I make this sweps world animations work?

[Hellsing]

I am very close to getting done with my newest project and have run into a slight error which is really bugging me.

Basically when I get the swep in game my player holds the knife like a pistol in 3rd person, or world model rather.

SO... I need to get him to hold the weapon like a crowbar. How would I go about modifying this lua to make this work properly. I have already added proper bones to my world model so that should not pose a problem.

Here is some fun code.

I did not make it and I don't know who did, it is some doug guy, But I am not much of an lua scripter.

if( SERVER ) then
	AddCSLuaFile( "shared.lua" )
	SWEP.HoldType			= "melee"
end

if( CLIENT ) then
	SWEP.PrintName = "Iron Knife"
	SWEP.Slot = 3
	SWEP.SlotPos = 3
	SWEP.DrawAmmo = false
	SWEP.DrawCrosshair = false
end

SWEP.Author			= "Doug Tyrrell"
SWEP.Instructions	= "Left click to stab, right click to throw!"
SWEP.Contact		= "www.dvondrake.com"
SWEP.Purpose		= ""

SWEP.ViewModelFOV	= 62
SWEP.ViewModelFlip	= false

SWEP.Spawnable			= false
SWEP.AdminSpawnable		= true

SWEP.NextStrike = 0;
  
SWEP.ViewModel      = "models/morrowind/iron/knife/v_firstknife.mdl"
SWEP.WorldModel   = "models/morrowind/iron/knife/w_firstknife.mdl"
  
-------------Primary Fire Attributes----------------------------------------
SWEP.Primary.Delay			= 0.9 	--In seconds
SWEP.Primary.Recoil			= 0		--Gun Kick
SWEP.Primary.Damage			= 15	--Damage per Bullet
SWEP.Primary.NumShots		= 1		--Number of shots per one fire
SWEP.Primary.Cone			= 0 	--Bullet Spread
SWEP.Primary.ClipSize		= -1	--Use "-1 if there are no clips"
SWEP.Primary.DefaultClip	= -1	--Number of shots in next clip
SWEP.Primary.Automatic   	= true	--Pistol fire (false) or SMG fire (true)
SWEP.Primary.Ammo         	= "none"	--Ammo Type

end

function RemoveKnife( ent )
	if ent:IsValid() then
		ent:Remove()
	end
end

	self.NextStrike = ( CurTime() + 1 )

	self.Weapon:EmitSound("weapons/knife/morrowind_knife_slash.wav")
	self.Owner:EmitSound("weapons/knife/morrowind_knife_deploy1.wav")
   
	local tr = self.Owner:GetEyeTrace()
	
	if (!SERVER) then return end;
	
	local ent = ents.Create ("thrownknife")

	ent:SetPos (self.Owner:EyePos() + (self.Owner:GetAimVector() * 16))
	ent:SetAngles (self.Owner:EyeAngles())
	ent:Spawn()
	
	ent.Thrower = self.Owner

	local phys = ent:GetPhysicsObject()

	local shot_length = tr.HitPos:Length()
	phys:ApplyForceCenter (self.Owner:GetAimVector():GetNormalized() * math.pow (shot_length, 3))

	cleanup.Add (self.Owner, "props", ent)

	undo.Create ("Knife")
	undo.AddEntity (ent)
	undo.SetPlayer (self.Owner)
	undo.Finish()
	
	timer.Simple(20, RemoveKnife, ent) 
end 

Everything works fine except for the world animations, help?

SWEP.Holdtype = "melee2")

[QUOTE=werewolf0020;28246584]SWEP.Holdtype = "melee2")[/QUOTE]

That did not work. I got the same exact results.

Edit: I tried changing it to nearly every hold type, none of them work.

Try making SWEP.Holdtype shared instead of server.

[Hellsing]

That did not seem to work either.

I think I may have found something important, I went and downloaded css realistic weapons to see if I could use that base instead, and Before doing anything to the pack it showed the knife as being held like a gun... What the hell?

I am going to clear my addons, I have no idea if there is a conflicting mod or what.

NVM: Google is my friend, I found this facepunch thread actually. Should have searched first before posting I guess.

Instead of this

function SWEP:Initialize()
    if SERVER then
        self:SetWeaponHoldType("melee")
    end
end

It needed to be this

function SWEP:Initialize()
    self:SetWeaponHoldType("melee")
end

I need to fix up my W_Models now. Thanks for trying to help me peoples hope this helps anyone with similar problems.
