ply:SetModel() doesn't do anything at all

[ubre]

I am not sure why it doesn't do anything, it only sets the playermodel once when it spawns for the first time, then it won't work ever again. This is for a game mode and not only does it not work when I want to use it for its intended purposes it also won't work if I just use via console or any other way.

Here's the piece of code I made:

function GM:PlayerSpawn(ply)

     local jobString = ply:getJob()

     if(jobString == "Invalid") then

          jobString = self.Settings.BaseJob
          ply:setJob(jobString)

     end

     local jobTable = self.Jobs[jobString]

     ply:StripWeapons()
     ply:StripAmmo()

     for k, v in pairs(jobTable["Weapons"]) do

          ply:Give(v)

     end

     ply:DrawViewModel(true)

     hook.Run("PlayerSetModel", ply)

end

function GM:PlayerSetModel(ply)

     local jobString = ply:getJob()

     if(jobString == "Invalid") then

          jobString = self.Settings.BaseJob
          ply:setJob(jobString)

     end

     local jobTable = self.Jobs[jobString]

     ply:SetModel(jobTable["Playermodel"])

end
Here are the jobs:

GM.Jobs = GM.Jobs || {}

GM.Jobs["Class D"] =
{
     ["Weapons"] = {"weapon_fists", "weapon_bugbait"},
     ["Salary"] = 30,
     ["Playermodel"] = "models/player/group01/female_06.mdl"
}

GM.Jobs["Security"] =
{
     ["Weapons"] = {"weapon_fists", "weapon_pistol", "weapon_smg1"},
     ["Salary"] = 125,
     ["Playermodel"] = "models/player/kerry/class_securety.mdl"
}

GM.Settings.BaseJob = "Class D"
There is nothing wrong with my functions, I already triple checked. The SetModel function just isn't setting the model. If you need more information I am running this only serverside.

Had a similar problem, it seems like PlayerSetModel seems to be called before something resets the model, try PlayerLoadout hook for setting the model.

I reinstalled gmod, removed all addons. And it's all working correctly now. :-)
