Ironsight

[Battlepope02]

I was wondering if its possibly to have ironsight in normal weapon_base? If so how would I do this?

I to would like to know this, are you using that swep base on gmod.org, the one they guy wants to get 5000 downloads for?

Im unshure on what one that is. But I mean the default weapon base. The one I think is used in Half-Life 2

Half-Life 2 doesn't use Lua for guns.

Put this in the shared.lua file somewhere.

local IRONSIGHT_TIME = 0.25

/*---------------------------------------------------------
   Name: GetViewModelPosition
   Desc: Allows you to re-position the view model
---------------------------------------------------------*/
function SWEP:GetViewModelPosition( pos, ang )

	if ( !self.IronSightsPos ) then return pos, ang end

	local bIron = self.Weapon:GetNetworkedBool( "Ironsights" )
	
	if ( bIron != self.bLastIron ) then
	
		self.bLastIron = bIron 
		self.fIronTime = CurTime()
		
		if ( bIron ) then 
			self.SwayScale 	= 0.3
			self.BobScale 	= 0.1
		else 
			self.SwayScale 	= 1.0
			self.BobScale 	= 1.0
		end
	
	end
	
	local fIronTime = self.fIronTime or 0

	if ( !bIron && fIronTime < CurTime() - IRONSIGHT_TIME ) then 
		return pos, ang 
	end
	
	local Mul = 1.0
	
	if ( fIronTime > CurTime() - IRONSIGHT_TIME ) then
	
		Mul = math.Clamp( (CurTime() - fIronTime) / IRONSIGHT_TIME, 0, 1 )
		
		if (!bIron) then Mul = 1 - Mul end
	
	end

	local Offset	= self.IronSightsPos
	
	if ( self.IronSightsAng ) then
	
		ang = ang * 1

	pos = pos + Offset.x * Right * Mul
	pos = pos + Offset.y * Forward * Mul
	pos = pos + Offset.z * Up * Mul

	return pos, ang
	
end


/*---------------------------------------------------------

function SWEP:SetIronsights( b )

	self.Weapon:SetNetworkedBool( "Ironsights", b )

end


SWEP.NextSecondaryAttack = 0

end

/*---------------------------------------------------------

function SWEP:DrawHUD()

	// No crosshair when ironsights is on

	local x = ScrW() / 2.0
	local y = ScrH() / 2.0
	local scale = 10 * self.Primary.Cone
	
	// Scale the size of the crosshair according to how long ago we fired our weapon
	local LastShootTime = self.Weapon:GetNetworkedFloat( "LastShootTime", 0 )
	scale = scale * (2 - math.Clamp( (CurTime() - LastShootTime) * 5, 0.0, 1.0 ))
	
	surface.SetDrawColor( 0, 255, 0, 255 )
	
	// Draw an awesome crosshair
	local gap = 40 * scale
	local length = gap + 20 * scale
	surface.DrawLine( x - length, y, x - gap, y )
	surface.DrawLine( x + length, y, x + gap, y )
	surface.DrawLine( x, y - length, x, y - gap )
	surface.DrawLine( x, y + length, x, y + gap )

end

/*---------------------------------------------------------

function SWEP:OnRestore()

	self.NextSecondaryAttack = 0
	self:SetIronsights( false )
	
end

After that, put this code somewhere.

SWEP.Primary.Cone = 0.02

Then use Iron sights creator to get where the iron sight will be. Put this in the code first so it won't make a million errors.

SWEP.IronSightsPos = Vector (4.5313, -0.8637, 3.2683)
SWEP.IronSightsAng = Vector (-0.088, -0.1113, 0)

Use this to get the iron sights for the view model you are using. [url]http://www.garrysmod.org/downloads/?a=view&id=29787[/url]

Awesome, thanks.
